Em Movimento (2023)

Moving moved me

It's just a fantastic show. Sometimes it's easier to review a show you didn't like because the bad aspects tend to stick out. I still want to give it a try.

What I loved about the show:
• The characters!!! Their relationship dynamics and development. I especially loved Bong Seok and Hee Soo. They were so cute and felt like real students. The way the parents tried everything and would do everything to protect their kids was really moving. It was easy to love the characters in this show.
• The plot was exciting. Good balance between heart-felt and action scenes. The origin-stories of each person was unique and interesting to see. I really hope for a second season, especially because it feels like the student's journey has only begun. I want to see them all reunite after growing a bit

The only thing I disliked:
• Spending so much time without the character of the present time while heavily focusing on the past. It's not an actual critique since I still really enjoyed these episodes

Conclusion: I want a second season!!!

A fresh take on superpowers genre, K-Drama style

Moving, a South Korean drama about superpowered teens and the superpowered parents trying to protect them, became Disney's most-watched K-drama of all time. For the past few years, Korean dramas have extensively diversified their genres and viewership, moving beyond the tag of romantic comedies to producing some of the best thrillers, zombie or otherwise! Moreover, they have ventured into genres like dystopia, science-fiction, and now, superheroes! Needless to mention, Moving brings a fresh new entry to K-Drama with its superhero storyline with some family drama.

The show is extremely engaging with the pacing, storyline, action sequences, themes, and the performance of the cast and character relations. Moving is a great concoction of fantasy, mystery, thriller, action, and of course, a romcom, the characteristic feature of Kdramas. Moreover, it features the themes of bullying but now from the perspective of the silent observer and ethical questions that accompany the cost of a lost childhood when children are sold into becoming weapons of the state or in a simpler sense, sold into labor.


In a nutshell, Moving is, hands down, one of the most engaging and unique Kdramas released in 2023 and it would be a shame not to give it a chance with its interesting story, pacing, interesting characters, and the numerous mysteries unveiling themselves.

My Rating : 9.5/10

Kdrama of te Year 2023

Moving is the best Kdrama of this year probably the decade. With 3x the budget of Squid Game, Challenging VFX & very hardcore action sequences, this show has surpassed expectations.

Episode 8-9 were pretty nostalgic & delicately romantic & one of the best thing about this drama. It shows how humane can Superheros be, a handicapped Superhero, Dying Superheros, Romantic Superheros, Kid Superheros, forced to be Superheros, Useless Superheros - It's a one of its kind drama that every Marvel & DC fan should watch.

Brilliantly acted by everyone. Some scenes are quite lengthy but overall the show is worth it.

AMAZING STORY, CASTS WITH GREAT ACTING SKILLS, THE EFFORT THEY PUT THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SERIES. THE ACTION ROMANCE I DIDNT ASK FOR THIS WAS THE BEST KOREAN DRAMA OF THE YEAR WAITING FOR SEASON 2. I JUST WISHED THEY HAD THEIR OWN OSTS LIKE OTHER KDRAMAS.

2023 BEST KDRAMA

drama series that is perfect in terms of story, actors and actresses who are amazingly cool and supporting roles that are no less cool than the main character of the story that is very touching makes me pity and sad at the same time every detail really amazes me and wonders why there is a story as good as this? good shooting moving so far is still in the best drama airing in 2023 and maybe the best in my opinion this drama in terms of casting the main and supporting players is no joke they are all involved in this story I am very amazed and the best in editing and cool visual effects this drama should win a lot of trophies at the annual best drama event and deserves it.
I don't really expect there to be a season 2 but so far the ending is enough for me.
All of them should watch moving because there is no loss to watch it
I don't know if the writer will make moving season 2? We will never know
Even if there is a season 2, hopefully the formation of the players will not change.
Maybe if it changes it's a little awkward but it's okay, I'll enjoy it.

a masterpiece

Dear lord i dont know where to begin AHAHAHA

a masterpiece really, probably one of the best dramas of the century and in kdrama history. where do I start…

the plot, super solid. so well developed and so well executed that the whole drama got me on the edge of my seat and i was so invested. the first episode already got me hooked. the way they also integrated the backstories of each character was too good that i was able to watch everythibg without getting bored. the action scenes? LEGENDARY. THE ROMANCE? masterpiece for real. someone give the scripwriter an award i beg you.

now the OST, goddamn everytime i hear guryongpo’s soundtrack chills go up my spine and i smirk cuz damn. the music really fit the vibe of the entire drama.

now wow the characters. the actor and actress selection was so well thought of. who knew id be here watching han hyo joo playing a mother role WITH UNBELIEVABLE CHEMISTRY WITH ZO IN SUNG? they should be married irl. also casting go younjung, thank you director so much. bongseok and ganghoon are now part of my celeb crush list.

gosh its my first review and im not used to this… but all i can say is. this drama was definitely worth my time. and no matter how many times i rewatch, I’ll definitely fall in love with it even more. thank you so much for giving us an amazing drama and a happy ending.

DEFINITELY WAITING FOR A SEASON 2??

South Korea can also create superheroes

I remember finding out this show would come out sometime in 2023. I was looking through the shows Kim Sung Kyun was starring in after watching the drama called "Grid". At that time I didn't really look into what it was about or anything. The reason I even started watching this drama was because of a few videos on YouTube that showed some clips. So when I started watching it, I didn't know what it was going to be about.

The drama starts with the story surrounding Bong Seok and Hee Soo. It then shows how it is living with their superpowers in their daily lives. I think the drama gave us a good mix of their superpowers and their story about that, but also a romance that makes your heart flutter. Around halfway through the series it gradually goes over to the parents backstories. I think it was nice to get to know each character better and how they met and how they got to know each other. All leading up to the final battle where all of them are gathered.

What makes me not giving this drama a 10/10 is the fact that I felt like it might have been too much about their parents and their backstories, when I actually wanted to see more of Bong Seok and Hee Soo. But it actually all makes more sense to give the viewers a good explanation of how these people got to know each other and what led up to them getting tangled together. A well executed and thrilling series from Disney, I'm looking forward to the next season.

Moving: Teenage Superhumans

The series have a very exciting early episode. I like the action-packed episodes particularly the later ones. But somehow it to meet my expectations on why it was titled that way. Although a sequel or another season can be a welcome idea to quench the uncertainties the viewers would like to see what a great ending will be.

I am blur as to where it can climax as the teaser to the continuing next sequel if ever there will be. But the concept and story is great. I am just not sure if the story will be enough to create a political ripple between the north and south (hope not!) since the disclaimer says it all that it was just a work of fiction.

The title likewise seems somewhat misleading and/or controversial. Does it mean 'moving from north to south'? I feel the title should highly relate to the extraordinary life of the main characters. Except that it should not be somewhat similar or near like to the title of the tech savvy secret agent kids' film: Spy Kids Armageddon.

Best of 2023

You will not regret watching. This is the best kdrama I've watched all year, and it's one of my favorite kdramas of all time. I spam watched every episode. It's high quality. Every episode feels like a movie. The actors are good, so the story is portrayed well. Jo Insung and Han Hyojoo are already some of the best out there, and I love their other works. I want to see the other actors/actresses in other dramas too (especially the young actors/actress).

The scriptwriter well thought out the story. From beginning to end, I was NEVER disappointed. Each episode kept me interested. The symbolism, the romance, the super powers, the everything. I could rave on and on about this. I'm obsessed.
You know one of those dramas that you'll think about for a long time? This is one of those.

I want a second season. Kdrama gods, please.

Unmet Expectations: A Disappointing Experience with "Moving"

Pros:
-FTX and Makeup Quality: The series does shine in terms of FTX and makeup, showcasing a commendable level of technical skill.
-Doo Sik and Mi Hyun's Love Story: The slow-burn love story between Doo Sik and Mi Hyun provides a redeeming element, offering a genuinely enjoyable aspect within the overall narrative.
-Ryu Seung-ryong's acting: He just doesn't fail at delivering his role, truly a versatile actor.

Cons:
-Overrated and Overhyped: Despite high ratings, "Moving" falls short of the hype, leaving viewers with unmet expectations.
-Not Action-Oriented: Contrary to expectations, the series leans more towards romance than action, potentially disappointing fans seeking an adrenaline-fueled experience.
-Cringeworthy Script and Lack of Depth: The script is criticized for being cringeworthy and lacking depth, preventing the narrative from achieving a meaningful impact. The fact that they overused "Who are you?", "Do you want to die?", "Bastards" and things that don't even need to be said make it so hard to watch.
-Excessive Side Characters: The presence of numerous side characters with insignificant stories adds unnecessary complexity, diluting the main plot and contributing to a disjointed narrative.
-Absence of Main Plot Line: The series suffers from a lack of a clear main plot line, resulting in a narrative that feels scattered and disorganized.
-Villains: Black-and-White and Boring: The one-dimensional portrayal of villains with a lack of depth and development adds to the overall disappointment.
-Wasted Talents: Despite a cast of great actors, including Ryu Seung-ryong, Park Hee-soon, Jo Insung, Cha Tae-hyun, and Han Hyo-joo, the series fails to leverage their talents effectively.


"Moving" may have some technical merits and a redeeming love story, but the overwhelming issues, including a lack of villain's motives and main plot line, cringeworthy script, and wasted talent, make it difficult to recommend, especially for fans expecting an engaging action and crime series.
