How Netflix's The Glory Drew Inspiration From Real Stories of School Violence in Korea
From: TIME
MARCH 10, 2023
The Glory, a popular K-drama about a woman who seeks revenge on the classmates who severely bullied her as a teen, returns to Netflix today with its final eight episodes. In the series—which remained on the streamer's Global Top Ten list for five weeks after dropping its first batch of episodes in December—Song Hye-kyo plays Moon Dong-eun, who has devoted her entire adult life to crafting a meticulous plan to take down her former abusers. The Glory chiefly follows Dong-eun's enactment of that plan, 20 years after the abuse. It is the latest in a long line of Korean dramas that use school bullying as a plot point, and its narrative impetus comes from real-life incidents of school violence in Korea.
If you're a frequent watcher of Korean dramas or reader of webtoons, then you've almost certainly seen a storyline about school bullying before. The zombie virus that takes over Hyosan High in All of Us Are Dead, Netflix's 11th most-streamed TV series of all time, is created in a father's attempt to protect his son from school bullies. In last year's school drama Weak Hero Class 1, the action begins when protagonist Yeon Shi-eun (Park Ji-hoon), a quiet model student, violently strikes back against his bully. Another 2022 drama, The King of Pigs, follows two survivors of childhood bullying—one who grows up to become a serial killer, and the other who becomes a police detective.
Kim Eun-sook—who has penned some of hallyu's most popular dramas, including Goblin, Descendants of the Sun, and Mr. Sunshine—was inspired to write The Glory when her teen daughter asked her a jarring question: “Mom, would you be more heartbroken if I beat someone nearly to death or if I got beat nearly to death by someone else?” With The Glory, Kim set out to answer that question. Part 1 begins the story, chronicling Dong-eun's psychological and physical torment in gruesome detail. In Part 2, we will finally learn if Dong-eun gets the justice society so frustratingly refuses to provide.
The real-life issues behind the narrative device
In creating The Glory, Kim researched the systemic school violence that has impacted Korean society for decades. Bullying is a widespread problem in Korea, where suicide has been the number one cause of death for young people since 2007. In the past few decades, it has also become a much-discussed one, as the government works to combat the problem. In 2004, Korea passed a law called The Special Act on School Violence Prevention, following the deaths of several teenagers by suicide after they were bullied. The legislation led to the formation of school committees to monitor bullying, but according to this recent Korea Times article, bullying is still a major problem.
In The Glory, fictional character Dong-eun is severely bullied by a group of classmates. They sear her skin with a hair-curling iron, scratch her with pins, and beat and kick her. Many of these disturbing details are based on a real-life incident that occurred in 2006, at a girls' school in Cheongju, Korea. In that case, three ninth-grade girls bullied their classmate for a period of 20 days, including burning her skin with a curling wand. The abuse resulted in a six-week hospitalization for injuries, among them a protruded tailbone.
Of course, that is just the physical toll. The targets of bullies also suffer psychological trauma that can follow them into adulthood. Though The Glory uses Dong-eun's burn scars as a visual representation of the abuse she has survived, the series is much more interested in exploring how being bullied as a teen—and the absolute failure of the adults in her life to protect her—have shaped her mental health and life choices. In Episode 6 of the series, the usually stoic Dong-eun has a panic attack on the floor of a mechanic shop. It is triggered by the sound of meat being cooked on a grill, which brings back memories of her abuse.
Bullying is repeated, harmful behavior characterized by a power imbalance between the perpetrator and the victim. Research suggests bullying occurs across and within all socioeconomic groups, though victims are slightly more likely to come from low socioeconomic backgrounds. There is a more conclusive link between bullying and a country's wealth inequality. In 2014, The Conversation did an investigation into the connections between social class and bullying, finding that bullying is more common in hierarchical social structures where more financial or social inequality is present. As they put it, “The more unequal a social setting, the more likely it is that using any means of getting ahead is endorsed.”
In Korea, wealth inequality is only slightly better than conditions in the U.S., which is to say relatively high and growing. While school violence storylines are usually confined to a single town or institution, they act as narrative microcosms for larger social inequalities that teens and adults alike can relate to—both in Korea and in the U.S. In The Glory, protagonist Moon Dong-eun is poor, with parents who are not able to take care of her. Her chief abuser, Park Yeon-jin, comes from a wealthy family. When Dong-eun reports Yeon-jin's physical abuse, first to her teacher and then to the police, they not only ignore her, but punish her for accusing someone from a wealthy family. In a particularly disturbing scene, Dong-eun's homeroom teacher hits her repeatedly in the middle of the staff lounge for reporting the bullying.

在创作《黑暗荣耀》时，金银淑研究了几十年来影响韩国社会的系统性校园暴力。在韩国，霸凌是一个普遍存在的问题，自2007年以来，自杀一直是年轻人的头号死因。随着政府努力解决这个问题，在过去的几十年里它也成为一个备受关注的话题。2004年，因数名被霸凌后的青少年自杀身亡，韩国通过了一项名为《预防校园暴力特别法》的法律。这项立法促使学校成立委员会来监督霸凌行为，但据《韩国时报》最近的一篇文章，霸凌仍然是一个重大问题。

Many of these disturbing details are based on a real-life incident that occurred in 2006, at a girls' school in Cheongju, Korea. In that case, three ninth-grade girls bullied their classmate for a period of 20 days, including burning her skin with a curling wand. The abuse resulted in a six-week hospitalization for injuries, among them a protruded tailbone.
在《黑暗荣耀》剧中，文东恩遭到一群同学的严重霸凌。他们用卷发棒烫伤她的皮肤、用针刺她、并对她拳打脚踢。这些令人不安的细节中有许多是基于2006年发生在韩国清州一所女子学校的真实事件。在那起事件中，三名九年级女孩对同学进行了20天的霸凌，包括用卷发棒灼伤她的皮肤。这些施暴行为导致该同学受伤住院六周，其中包括尾椎骨突出。

Of course, that is just the physical toll. The targets of bullies also suffer psychological trauma that can follow them into adulthood. Though The Glory uses Dong-eun's burn scars as a visual representation of the abuse she has survived, the series is much more interested in exploring how being bullied as a teen—and the absolute failure of the adults in her life to protect her—have shaped her mental health and life choices. In Episode 6 of the series, the usually stoic Dong-eun has a panic attack on the floor of a mechanic shop. It is triggered by the sound of meat being cooked on a grill, which brings back memories of her abuse.
当然，这只是身体上的伤害。受害者还会遭受心理创伤，这种创伤会伴随他们成年。尽管《黑暗荣耀》中用文东恩的烧伤疤痕作为她经历过的霸凌的视觉表现，但这部剧更关注于探索青少年时期遭受霸凌——以及她生活中的成年人完全没有保护她——是如何塑造她的心理健康和人生选择的。在该剧第6集中，往往默默承受的文东恩在一家汽车修理厂 的地板上惊恐症发作。这是由于烤肉的声音让她想起了受虐的经历。

霸凌是一种反复发生的有害行为，其特点是施暴者和受害者之间的权力不平衡。研究表明，霸凌行为在所有社会经济群体中都会发生，尽管受害者更有可能来自社会经济背景较低的群体。霸凌和一个国家的财富不平等之间存在更为明确的关系。2014年，《对话》（The Conversation）杂志对社会阶层和霸凌之间的关系做了调查，发现在存在更多金融或社会不平等的等级社会结构中，霸凌更为常见。正如他们所说，“社会环境越不平等，使用任何手段取得成功的可能性就越大。”

🎬电影《侏罗纪公园》（Jurassic Park）中的台词提到：After careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park. 仔细考虑以后 我决定不为你的公园背书。
⚠️这里补充一下，看到上面的「背书」你可能疑惑了，除了在金融上的含义，现在往往被用于政治领域。
📍例如，新华网2020年4月份一则新闻标题就为「奥巴马“背书”拜登」讲的就是奥巴马发声力挺拜登。
In Korea, wealth inequality is only slightly better than conditions in the U.S., which is to say relatively high and growing. While school violence storylines are usually confined to a single town or institution, they act as narrative microcosms for larger social inequalities that teens and adults alike can relate to—both in Korea and in the U.S. In The Glory, protagonist Moon Dong-eun is poor, with parents who are not able to take care of her. Her chief abuser, Park Yeon-jin, comes from a wealthy family. When Dong-eun reports Yeon-jin's physical abuse, first to her teacher and then to the police, they not only ignore her, but punish her for accusing someone from a wealthy family. In a particularly disturbing scene, Dong-eun's homeroom teacher hits her repeatedly in the middle of the staff lounge for reporting the bullying.
在韩国，财富不平等只比美国的情况（相对较大并且不断加剧）略好一点。虽然校园暴力的故事情节通常局限于某个城镇或机构，但无论是在韩国还是在美国，这是青少年和成年人都能感受到的更严重的社会不平等问题的缩影。在《黑暗荣耀》剧中，主人公文东恩家境贫寒，父母无力照顾她。主要施暴者朴妍珍来自一个富裕的家庭。当文东恩向老师和警察举报朴妍珍的霸凌行为时，他们不仅没有理会她，反而还因她指控有钱人家而惩罚她。在一个特别令人不安的场景中，因为她的举报，文东恩的班主任在员工休息室中间多次殴打她。
be confined to
microcosm
microcosm /ˈmaɪ.krəʊˌkɒz.əm/ 表示“缩影；微观世界”，英文解释为“a small place, society, or situation that has the same characteristics as something much larger”举个🌰：
