The AACA, recognized as the premier content awards ceremony in Asia, took place in Singapore this December, featuring entries from 17 countries across the Asia-Pacific region. Notably, Studio Dragon's "The Glory" emerged victorious in the best drama series category, mirroring its achievement from the previous year with "Twenty Five Twenty One." In 2022, the studio also claimed best screenplay for "Our Blues" and best original production by a streamer/OTT for "Yumi's Cells."

At the 2023 AACA, "The Glory" not only secured the coveted best drama series award but also clinched the award for best actress in a supporting role. The 16-episode series revolves around a woman whose life is shaped by childhood trauma, leading her to meticulously plan a profound act of revenge. Notably, "The Glory" enjoyed a notable global presence, ranking among the Global Top 10 non-English TV series on Netflix for an impressive 13 weeks post-release.

This recognition follows the series' earlier triumph at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards in April, where it received the best drama award. Furthermore, "The Glory" has been nominated for the best foreign language series category at the 29th Critics' Choice Awards, alongside other Korean series such as "Mask Girl," "Bargain," and "Moving" in the current year.
