trust me, you’ll cry
I had this drama on my list since a really long time but I never actually read the synopsis or anything but since I had nothing to watch these days, I tought about watching it.I had zero expection yet, this show is really worth it. I binged watch it in less than 3 days. First of all, the cast is really good, the actors play well and match their character.
Overall, the show is good, as a perso who always skip the boring scenes, I didn’t skip once. All the little story were really touching and you might drop a little tear for some of them but what I prefered is really the whole background of Geuru’s family (counting his uncle) I really wasn’t expecting this. I cried during the scene where Geuru’s mother is at the hospital, I don’t even know why because I’m not the kind of people who really cry in front of dramas but it actually touched me deeply.
It’s such a good show that deserve its high reviews!! I even recommend it to my mother who’s such a picky drama fan and she loves it !!

That moment when u unexpectedly get hit by massive waves of feels
Bruh, i started watching coz they said it was the heart-warming, feel good type drama nd i wanted to watch sth adorable....what i got was tears, no joke. The entire first episode had me bawling my brains out nd i needed to sleep it off. Afterwards every single episode, somehow or other i ended up crying, the emotionally engaging environment throughout the drama specially heightened ones feelings of empathy. Im honestly so glad i watched it, the actors were so talented, specially geu-ru, its not easy to play a role like that. The way the characters grew and the relationships developed was absolutely precious T_T the way the story pointed out the problems in the society so realistically and portrayed the deceased characters with such care and respect deserves nothing but praise and admiration. Move to heaven had a special message in every episode while progessing with their own story at the same time nd along with our main characters, it honestly made me feel nd learn a lot too, such a beautiful concept ;-; the grief nd tears were worth it. This is definitely becoming one of my fav dramas.Was this review helpful to you?
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

A must watch
I have never cried watching a show or movie before, but I definitely cried multiple times watching Move to Heaven. I even cried watching it the second time despite knowing what happened. Most Kdramas are fairly predictable, but this one was not which was refreshing. I never really looked into non-romance Kdramas prior to this, but I’m glad I took the risk. It’s definitely not lighthearted, so keep that in mind if that’s not what you’re looking for. Even if it’s not what you’re looking for, I would still recommend watching it at some point. This show helped me realize there are good non-romance dramas, so I definitely recommend watching it if you’re looking for a good drama that is not romance.Was this review helpful to you?
Like i said previously, the story is about a boy that has to encounter a big change in his life. We follow his quotidian, but not that only. One of the things i love about this drama is how they connect the main story with side stories.
Its very touching and interesting, i highly recommend it.

BEAUTIFUL
I'll start off this by saying that I'm not one to cry while watching movies or series, and I if I do, it's mostly just a little bit of tearing up.Move To Heaven had me crying my eyes out, tears streaming down my cheeks at least once per episodes.
The clever story line and superb acting provided us with an excellent first series.
Despite having barely understanding of korean, the raw and powerful emotions that the cast performed was what stood out and by not knowing the language the emotions portrayed was the main focus point for me, instead of what was being said.
I laughed, cried, and felt a renewed sense of gratitude for life and death.
Overall this is one of my favorite series I've ever seen, and I say that despite not really being an avid k-drama viewer.

Love this story. I was impressed by how the writer of this drama implemented and fictionized trauma cleaners in most heartwarming, beautiful and thoughtful way. I know that there is no trauma cleaner like Geuru in real life. There is no trauma cleaner who organizes and collects items from the belongings like Gruru does and try every effort to deliver box(yellow box is created for this story also) to the deceased's family or friends. In reality, trauma cleaner's main job is to clean out the spaces and belongings of the deceased. However still the job itself is a very hardworking one and it face a lot of obstacles and diffulties in real life. It demands your devotion and professionalism but heardly not many people recognize what they are doing. And this is one of the thing I value about this drama. This drama introduced trauma cleaners for the first time and made people realize that we should show more respect to what they are doing for us and give more attention and care about people living around us.
GREAT WRITER!! GREAT STORY!!!

My forever favourite drama
This will forever be one of the best drama’s I’ve watched, I cried not even halfway into the first episode and cried at every episode after that. Usually I take my time to watch shows but this had me so moved I binged it all.The plot is so beautiful and we get to explore different emotions and stories from characters that you can relate to so well, it feels so real and you really feel for the characters and families. It is a beautiful introduction into mourning, autism, friendship and love and the main actors Tang Jun-sang and Lee Je-hoon played their roles fantastically, you root for them greatly in the end and the characters development is well written.
My favourite episode was with the gay couple and I bawled at the speech and the rings at the end, you never really see gay characters portrayed positively on dramas so this was a pleasant experience for me. I really hope the ending means there is a season two as I miss the characters incredibly and would definitely rewatch this one to relive the emotional rollercoaster.
10/10! A perfect show.

Easy-to-binge and gets all the onion-triggered water out of your eyes
It's been a long while since I watched a whole kdrama in one day/sitting. This broke it. Highly underrated even though it was a Netflix original.Let's dissect the storyline. Even though it didn't have my ideal beginning, it was still very fast-paced and allowed for the main character to be introduced. They quickly introduce the second main character and end that episode off with a very satisfying cliffhanger. I love how every episode introduced a different mini-storyline within the larger one, while allowing the main characters to develop. I also liked how they connected the story between the two main characters and allowed us to go back in time and sympathize with them. (This was the tear-jerking part.) I love dramas that are either completely romance or have a mystery/crime plot with a bit of romance. This was the latter aka my favorite.
Let's talk about the actors now. I don't know much about autism or Asperger's so I cannot comment on how well the main character, Tang Jun Sang, acted. However, I can comment on Lee Je Hoon's. Something about him at first glance was so charming. He embodied his role to the full, from the way he talked, the way he smirked, and his body language. I expect so much more for him in this genre of kdramas, and I'm excited to see more of him. Lastly, Hong Seung Hee was a very nice side (and female) character to have. She wasn't an especially necessary character to the plot, but she was in screenplay because she was the one reciprocating the comedic relief from Lee Je Hoon. The only problem I had with her was that her connection with the main character seemed just too random.
Overall, I HIGHLY RECCOMEND this drama.

Great Melodrama
Wow... To be honest, I never get emotional to the every episodes while watching it except the last episode where all the pain happened. Just wow, Great story line at least for me. Is it just me that the story is not lacking but still It feels like I need more? XD.... Let's talk about some traits there....XD ...., wow did I just witnessed some open relationship there in the ep5? I think they did well writing about it, we all know Sk is not open about it but it well delivered by the story. Lastly, I don't know if that's a fact that some issues in the story like the adoption and the building one where Gu Reu's father working in before, that's why I appreciated the writing of the story. Hmmmm, this will be the last.... I THINK THIS DRAMA IS WORTH TO WATCH ON!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
Heartwarming and Fresh
Oh wow, what can I say? I really enjoyed every bit of this drama that I want another season. It is wonderful to discover the world of trauma cleaners, esp. Move to Heaven. I've never watched anything like this before. The acting is amazing. All actors delivered well. There were many times that I shed some tears while watching this.Go ahead and watch this, it is worth your while esp. when you're into human stories. Just like what I've said, this needs a second season and I'm so up for it.
I'll give it a perfect 10 once S2 is confirmed!!! Jebal.
