The Glory star Song Hye-kyo said that, during one scene in The Glory, she was continuously told to act even crazier until she reached a level that the director found appropriate.
Watch A New Teaser For 'the Glory', Kdrama Starring Song Hye Kyo
The Glory follows Moon Dong-eun (played by Song), a woman who resolves to take revenge on her childhood bullies through a painstakingly planned, multi-year plan. In the show's third episode, Dong-eun confronts her old bullies in the same school gymnasium where they repeatedly assaulted her years prior.
In a Netflix Korea commentary video, Song and screenwriter Kim Eun-sook reflected on the scene, which Kim called horrifying and said Dong-eun was basically declaring war.
When we were filming that, I wasn't sure how much she was expecting, Song said, referring to Kim. I wasn't sure how far I should go, but the script said... I'm not sure if I can say this, but it said I should act like a crazy bitch.

In the scene, the group of bullies gathers at their old school to celebrate the group's ringleader, weathercaster Park Yeon-jin (Lim Ji-yeon), who is receiving an alumni award. Dong-eun confronts them before the ceremony, and unnervingly claps and cheers for Yeon-jin when she receives the award while the rest of the audience is silent.
I had in my mind how crazy I should be, so we did one take of it, but then, Director An came and said, 'Act even crazier, ' Song said, referring to director and producer An Gil-ho. So I think the intensity kept going up.
