The conclusion of this study is that “The Glory” functions as a signifier, with the signifier being all the scenes from episodes 1 to 16 that were researched and related to bullying, and the sign is the school where the bullying incident against Moon Dong-Eun occurred. The contribution of this research lies in its ability to provide a semiotic analysis of bullying representation in popular media, particularly in Korean dramas, which can help raise awareness of bullying issues in educational institutions.
