Can’t find anything like Moving 2023 ?

Rafethan

I just finished Moving and honestly, no other K-drama hits the same.
The story, emotions, cinematography everything was perfect.
I tried Taxi Driver, Call It Love, but still... nothing feels like Moving.

Any recommendations for something with the same emotional power  high-quality storytelling?

There are so many dramas with excellent storytelling and emotional power. I wonder if instead it might be helpful to focus on the kinds of characters, themes, structure and mood that Moving provides? Also, I have watched the first couple of episodes and decided to save it for when I have a higer quality streaming platform, but I noticed it's very up to the minute as far as Western broadcast standards, writing, and pacing. Have you mostly liked Western tv before Moving?

 Alice in Borderland Season 3 and liked it too. I finished Moving in 2023. I'm looking for a new Korean drama now.

Right on. I'm asking because everybody's different in what they like. Like, one of my favorite dramas is a romantic comedy from 2005 that has very low production values, no action, and it's just a lot of talking. I partly love it because it's crafted for Korean audiences rather than international audiences. I wouldn't recommend it for you, because it seems like Korean-ness is not so much of a draw as high production values and international audience appeal. But I also love high end productions with lots of action like Moving. I haven't seen the show Alice in Borderland, but I've watched some trailers and clips and it looks awesome. If it's OK, I'll recommend a few dramas I haven't seen, but have watched scenes from, that seem to have similar protagonists to the protagonist of Moving. Weak Hero Class 1, The Uncanny Counter, Sweet Home, and All of Us Are Dead. Just in case one of the factors that make you love Moving is what a normal looking, outsider kid the protagonist is. I mean, he feels like a real person with real problems, not a model. I love that character. Check out some trailers and let me know what you think?

I'm so sorry, I wasn't careful, and I neglected to look at your watchlist. Based on your high rating for My Name, you might appreciate Kill It. Both dramas find beauty in trauma and survival, and they have a dark and tragic mood.

Since you rate Healer and The King: Eternal Monarch highly, maybe you would like Love Like the Galaxy Part 1 and Part 2. These dramas share extremely devoted, destiny-laden male leads, strong, brave, independent female leads, great action scenes, and breathtaking rescues. They all also have large, meaningful stories that involve the troubled past of an entire nation. Really great cinematography for all three dramas, too.
