Jung Ji So’s heartbreaking portrayal of a victim of horrific school bullying in “The Glory” flashback scenes has touched the hearts of many.

Jung Ji So’s roles prior to “The Glory” also left a deep impression on viewers. In 2021, she played an angel who informs people of the day of their death in Netflix’s “Hellbound”. Her face was CGI-ed into an angel with a face shape as faint as smoke and eyes emitting red light, creating a strange and creepy atmosphere.

In a behind video of the filming process released by Netflix at the time, Jung Ji So put a marker on her face and acted out the expressions and voice of an angel. She surprised viewers with her excellent facial expressions. In an interview with News 1, “Hellbound” director Yeon Sang Ho said, “I thought the image of the concept art and actress Jung Ji So were similar, so I casted her.”
