A Caminho do Céu (2021)

What a ride!

Honestly, I really didn't think I would love this drama at first. I just started watching as if I wouldn't finish it crying. This is the first time I am writing a review on here but not gonna lie, it is worth it.

First of all, the concept of the show is wonderful. You can get all types of emotions while watching this. The stories of each defunct are all well-written and beautiful. I really was scared to watch this, I thought this would get me bored but it definitely didn't, I got stuck in my room watching 7 episodes in a row yesterday, I am not even kidding! This show got me addicted to the characters and their stories.

The acting. THE ACTING !!! I just realized how good of an actor Tang Jun Sang is, his acting was so touching I thought it was real. The character of Han Geu-ru was literally made for this actor, I cannot see someone else portray him. Jun Sang needs to get an award for this drama, I swear, every scene of his were well-done.

Overall, this is a sad drama but it helps you to learn a life-lesson. It helps you realize how important your social life can be and that, even if you die, someone will always remember you somewhere. This drama even has that slight of comedy, and I sincerely love that, from Na-Mu and Sang-Gu's fights to Na-Mu's parents, I laughed a lot. That's why I call this drama an emotion ride, you cry but you still laugh. Well, watch it, you will not regret it ! <3

It's interesting the level of high scores this received and I wonder if it partially has to do with the exposure of being an original Netflix series. I'm still up in the air on firms like Netflix increasingly capitalizing on anime and the international sphere but eh.

You know the shows/movies where your eyes are glued to the set and you demand no interruptions? This one started off as such but then trails off a bit during the middle. The uniqueness of the plot is what really makes this one great but outside of it, it does still consist of the similar predictability you come across in many k-dramas. But also as with many k-dramas tropes, even while knowing the direction they're taking you in, you'll still give into the emotional roller-coaster.

In no way an expert in autism but the similar shortfalls found in the Good Doctor, was also evident here. While I love when anyone who is viewed as different in the world being celebrated for their differences and strengths, there feels to be a heavy hand in highlighting positives when convenient which causes inconsistencies through various scenarios. And maybe because it was only 10 episodes but the flow from switching focuses of your main characters didn't flow too naturally.

If you happen to be in emotional mood, prepare yourself with a tissue box. While it's not really as profound as it had the potential to have, it will still offer many viewers a good visualization of seeing things from a different perspective. It's worth the watch but hopefully they will follow up with a good continuation, particularly because of the ending where they tried to create some type of mystery but instead of creating anticipation, it felt out of place.

A Masterpiece

Every once in awhile something comes along that touches your heart and tugs at every
emotion. This is it for me. I thought of my dear
mother dying on the operating table and our
last words, I thought of my best friend dying
of terminal cancer at 35 and of being summoned
to the hospital as they made attempt after
attempt to bring my dearest cousin back to life. Finally, I just said stop...no more. The acting is
superb, the music hauntingly beautiful. Thanks to all the writers and anyone involved in this
project. I can only hope for a second season.

Have a safe trip

The story was new and touching.

It introduced me to a job, a hard job but beautiful one.
And the evolution of the relationships as well as the characters (especially the uncle) moved me a lot.

I would for sure want to see more of it : how they will live now, what challenges will they face, will they love, will the cry, will they make people happy again and again.
I would definitly watch it again and recommend it.

Saying goodbye isn't easy as you will never know what that person wish might have been, this added peace to my mind and it shows how everybody still have something they wished to tell.

Truly stands out from the rest!

What caught my attention is the trauma cleaning job. At 1st, I thought it's a "made-up" job, only to find out it's real. That fascinates me even more

Thanks to this show, I get to learn about such a profound and meaningful job that's often overlooked. In this show, the trauma cleaners really did amazing job in uncovering the story of the deceased, and making sure any messages are passed on to loved ones.

What makes this show even more interesting is that the ML also happen to have Asperger, hence opening up a new dimension of learning for us to understand more about people with Asperger, how they behave and why they act a certain way.

Combination of Asperger + Trauma Cleaning makes thsi show stand out.

I cried so much in this show that I feel it helped me process and heal the grief that I had myself.

This is one of the best show Lee Jee Hoon is in as well. His character adds more flavor and excitement to this show too.

Overall, this has great storyline, execution, messages, lessons and acting! Highly recommended

Cried my Soul out

I really really hope for a season 2 and FAST!!
I think yesterday was its 2 year anniversary which I can't believe its already been this long??? The hell are they doing waiting this long to give us another season????
Seriously though, this kdrama will tug at your heartstrings and make you weep like a child. I even got my mother to watch this and shes not the biggest fans of kdramas but she loved this one, that says a lot!
Not one episode will leave you bored, everything is just well paced and interesting- every character has their own story and its always so beautifully told and revealed. The scene where his father died tho...Goddamn. Cried my soul out, I feel like that also felt so unnecessary even though it lowkey was necessary for the plot but whatever!!! It sucked going through that, the dad was the sweetest :(((((

A drama I will remember for ever

I never wrote reviews before but I couldn't end this drama without saying anything about it. The cinematography, the music, the scenario, the characters, the acting, everything was amazing. I will definitely think about Move to Heaven for a long time.The character growth of Cho SangGu was amazing and the acting was absolutely incredible, he made me feel every emotion as little as it could be. Also I'm dehydrated for how much I cried, I don't think there was any episode where I haven't at least shed tears if not ugly cried. 10/10 in every possible way. I'm sad to leave Han GeuRu and his beautiful story.

“Moving & Heavenly”

I appreciate TV series that have an educational aspect because watching becomes dual purpose - I gain knowledge while being entertained. This drama centers around Asperger’s Syndrome and trauma cleaners. Two unconnected and unlikely topics but intertwined so fluidly into the storyline. I admire the screenwriter’s diligence in conducting in-depth research and then incorporating gathered facts into the script.

The storyline is heavy on the heart because there is always a death scene and immense grief but the lessons and realizations about life and love are what always prevail in the end.

The lead character was realistically portrayed by Tang Joon Sang who I first encountered as a naive soldier in “Crash Landing On You”. His acting skills concretely delivered what the creators behind this drama series wished to convey. And, not to forget his impressive memorization skills - his lines were laden with tongue-twisting terminologies that only a genius can utter at lightning speed!

The only downside? It is merely 10 episodes so it’s going to leave you wanting for more...

Good ...But... Underwhelming?

This drama had everything perfect for it's plot.
Good characters..Good plot,... amazing execution and flawless execution.

But for some reason....It was rather underwhelming in many ways.

I still can't put a finger at what that is..But for some reason..the calm atmosphere and all... seemed...Bland?

not in a boring way ...But just bland.

The Plot was ok and all but it wasn't that type of leave a great impact on me. it didn't leave any bang at all...I think I'll simply forgot I even watched this in like a week.

and for some reason...I couldn't help but keep comparing it to Tomorrow kdrama.

Both shared a similar concept...But this was rather... Underwhelming. Maybe because I had high expectations? idk.

And no.. I didn't even cry at all..yeah... story sad but No... didn't Cry.

but I won't say it's a bad drama. no! it's gold! and I'd recommend for anyone who wants to see. maybe you'll love it because I didn't. Execution was nice but like i said.. Underwhelming
