Spy Thriller ‘Moving’ Becomes Most Viewed Korean Original Series Across Disney+, Hulu https://variety.com/2023/tv/asia/moving-disney-hulu-korea-1235704441/

I think the problem is that something that works well in a manhwa doesn't necessarily work as well in a filmed drama. Having said that I'm excited by the preview for eps 12-13, it looks fantastic.

I think her vision was damaged by the flash grenade being too bright and close to her when it went off but it's never properly explained

Honestly, the plot does not move any faster. After ep 11 I still don't understand how the agency works. For you to enjoy this drama you have to fall in love with the characters. You may enjoy the adult parts more but it doesn't move any faster.

They did not and given what we know about his powers I really wonder what the big reveal will be.

I loved Huisoo's story, esp the way she fought 17 people like her daddy fought 100 and how she made Bongseok feel more normal about his powers.

Florence/Nathee are giving funny sexy and Irin/Hack are giving toxic messy so yes, worth it!

I agree with everything you said but I'm waiting for the inevitable person to tell you to go watch a teen romance if you don't like it 😐

I know I'm getting dragged for saying this but I still have problems with the plotting. We had seven episodes on the kids, then a two episode flashback with one set of parents, then another two episode flashback for another set of parents that didn't have much overlap or continuity with the previous episodes. Not only that but episode 10 kept jumping back and forth in time for no reason, so it was flashbacks within a flashback episode. It all feels very disjointed, especially because the middle seven episodes don't have the same kind of continuity that the first seven episodes had.

It's not that there aren't great moments in the episodes (especially the Oldboy homage fight in the hallway) but because of the way the narrative is constructed it's constantly yanking us away from people we've become invested in and throwing us into an entirely different setting with new people. The plotting doesn't seem to be a problem for most people but for me it's making it very hard for me to stay interested in the characters. Like by the time we get back to the kids will we even remember what they were up to when we last saw them?

Omg thank you, it's much easier to kick in a door than break down a wall, that looked cool but made absolutely no sense

Bongseok is the character who pulled me in and now I won't see him again for almost a month 😭

Irin and Hack are bringing the toxicity I was looking for from the beginning and I love it. Florence is so much more interesting than every other FL, it's kind of embarrassing how she blows them out of the water

I love them together! Sexy and funny

Not a BL

I mean I don't think it's a major spoiler to say that eventually someone does something about the killing but you're not there yet

The backstories aren't bad, it's the narrative structure that's weird. It's something that might work well in a webtoon where you can read at your own pace and easily page back to earlier scenes if you've forgotten something. But imo it doesn't work very well in a series where the episodes only drop twice a week and a month can go by before you revisit earlier scenes and characters. I loved the first 7 episodes but four weeks are going by before we revisit the teens. I didn't love eps 8 & 9, but even if I had we're not getting any more story on them for at least three weeks. That's a long gap.

I agree with you, I was recommending this show to friends of mine and they were interested but then one of them asked me if she could watch it with her kid and I realized wait a minute there's actually quite a lot of graphic violence in this thing. Otherwise it would totally be family appropriate, you have a lot of talk of humanism and values, looking out for other people, and the kids are utterly charming.

In addition to everything you said, even if you love the romance in episodes 8 and 9 you're not going to see those people together again for at least four episodes. It's a weird narrative choice.

I also find the editing and time given to various stories a bit strange. It's a four week gap in the younger generation's story, that's a very long time.

There were definitely security cameras in 1994. I worked at a video store in 1987 and we had security cameras installed. So the time period had nothing to do with her not expecting cameras.
