The Glory was one of the most accepted K-drama series and received a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes with its debut in 2022. And with great reviews, Netflix dropped the second season within three months. 

The second season, now streaming on the streaming platform, is running successfully, and fans of the show are anticipating an upcoming third season. The production team hasn’t announced any plans for a renewal for a third season until today. But since the series has taken over the hearts of hundreds of fans internationally, there are chances for renewal in the near future. 

At the time, Netflix hasn’t renewed the show for another season, and because of this, it’s really demanding to assume that the show will continue. Since the first and second season of the series was filmed together, Netflix could release them with a minimum interval. But it is impossible for a third season since it’s not yet decided or confirmed. And if there is any chance, fans can only anticipate it after a year. 

As the series has grown to immense popularity within a short period, the chances for discussions on the release of another season are high. And at the same time, if the story has ended with the second season, then the probability of another season is very low.

And if such a case exists, then there are chances for a spin-off series. The season could reveal the childhood of Dong-Eun and the miseries she had gone through growing up.

For her, the series must stay remembered by all as a grim sword dance.
