Must Watch !!!!!! Highly Recommended ❤️
At first, i was really curious by the title 'Move to Heaven'. But as I watched the episode 1, it's a roller coaster feel of emotions. It makes me hook and give realizations and reminder about life and death. Also, because of this amazing masterpiece show, I already know how noble 'trauma cleaner' job it is. They give an honor for the deceased. In life, it is really important to take care each other, and value each moment. We don't know what might happen in our life in the next coming days.I would like to thank for the real life trauma cleaner, for the director, writer, staff, casts who portray their character really great! It's so awesome. One of the best kdrama!
Hopefully many people will watch this show! It's a must watch show! Highly recommended!

It is one of those that stays with you for quite some time for sure. I finished it this week and and need to take a bit of a break from watching other films and series now I think. (That’s not a bad thing at all!)
The topics that are covered - death, grieving, loneliness, outsiders of society, and also autism - are addressed really well despite it being a relatively short series and relatively short episodes. I actually think in this case it is better left short. Sometimes less is more (such as when things are better expressed with less words or less details).
I think even though it is set in South Korea the topics are universally important and present in most countries in one form or another.
The topics are really heavy (it made me cry a lot… I felt really affected by the stories (of the dead people you meet in every episode) / the story (of the main characters) but also remembering people I lost in the last few years and thinking about people I come across day to day /at work whose stories I don’t know…….. CLOSE very long brackets :) :). ). but there are a few funny moments which is nice also - this contrast makes it even better to appreciate both the funny and sad moments.
I love classical music and I liked the bit when we see what music pieces Geu-ru (I’m not sure what the correct spelling is) plays during each job cleaning out a deceased person’s room/flat. I also liked the music/theme that was made for the film (I assume it was, as opposed to the pieces that were existing music pieces, but I have not found the soundtrack anywhere).
The series was not patronising towards autistic people which was well done too. It could have been very off-putting if they would not have got this right.
Finally, the actors were great!
Overall, this is my favourite Korean series watched ever so far.

A true masterpiece
I originally watched this show a couple months after it had come out. I had wanted a chill drama to watch a little bit of after a long day at work. Instead I was totally hooked immediately. This drama took my breath away and I could not stop crying whilst watching it, but not all the tears were purely from sadness. This show holds a very special place in my heart because of how beautiful and heartwrenching it is. There is a word in my native language that I rarely hear meantioned in English but it feels like it perfectly describes this show. The word basically means even if something is sad or bad you still WANT to live and to find the happiness and beautiful parts of life. That is this show.The way the characters get to grow closer whilst they also learn something from the deceased is my favourite part of the drama. To get to learn their life stories whilst they learn about each other and grow together is so well made. The acting, the script, the pacing, everything is perfectly made. Even the sad and traumatic parts are portrayed in a way that makes you sad but does not take away your desire to watch the rest of the drama.
Touching on the acting real quick, I think this is some of the best acting I've seen in a while. The actor who plays the uncle does an amazing job at portraying the different sides and the development of his character. I think particularly the scene where he finds the shoes is a showstopper of a scene. The guy who plays Geu-ru does a terrific job as well. As someone who is very close with a lot of people on the autism spectrum I have to admit I have never watched a show that handles the topic as well as this does and max credits to him for being able to do that at such a young age.
I have watched the show several times and I never get bored (yet I cry every time), this show is a solid 10/10 more than any show or movie has ever been for me. I recommend this to people over and over again.
To everyone who worked on this project, A BIG THANK YOU!

mth is not the best kdrama, its the best SHOW ever
move to heaven is definitely one of the shows that once you finish, you’ll feel a void because you know you will never watch such a perfect show for the first time again. Make yourself a favor and watch it cause the way they tell the stories will make you feel everything they want you to feel. This show has LGBTQ+ representation which makes me sooo happy, the representation feels sooo real. Sometimes queer characters are written in a way were they just feel from a children book written by a straigh woman but THISSS is just realistic and the acting just makes it perfect. also plus points for having hongseok from pentagon in the cast (stan pentagon)overall: 1000000/10

Poignant and Beautiful
There are so many lessons about life, love, resilience, generosity, kindness and the legacy we leave behind. This drama is a beautiful and deeply affecting reminder that life is indeed precious, and tomorrow is not promised to any of us. Cliché? Perhaps, yet 100% true. Worth every second of your watch time.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Definitely recommended
It talks about a boy with special needs and after his father dies one night due to a heart attack, the dad's brother comes to the boys house and the boy teaches the uncle what the work is, obviously the relationship between the boy and the uncle was not good at first and also the fact that the boy's childhood friend cared a lot about him was amazing, but what was more amazing was that the uncle soon understood the boy and helped him and the friend also came to help him too and I recommend this tv show to everyone, second Korean drama I watched after watching Squid Game and don't regret that I watched it, absolutely amazing show😊.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Cry Fest!!!
I cried during every episode! The acting and story is really good. This will definitely make it to my rewatch list.I've had this series on my watch list since it hit Netflix and finally watched it. I enjoyed the cast and the way this was written. it makes you wonder what kind of story you'll leave behind and how people will interpret your life based on what's left behind. It also shows how to appreciate people while you have time to do so. I wish I could find more dramas with this genre and similar storyline.

may heal you or hurt you if grieving
beautiful. depending on where you are with your grief though or how you handle grief, some may find this show incredibly healing (as i have seen many comment), or makes them hurt even more. i didn’t really see many comments say that it did the latter for them, however it did for me as i related to the boy and his grief, i felt the sadness all over again. still a beautiful show with beautiful acting. (apparently my review needs to be 500 characters but isn’t 500 yet, so im typing this up to reach that, i don’t have anything else to say??)Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Good but yeah, a bit dissapointed.
I tried to watch it because Lee Je Hoon and the ratings, but I think it's not that "masterpiece"?I expect to cry at every episode but nope, the feel just stops at "awww so sad".
The first episode is 10/10 tho. The scenes when Jung-Woo helps the deceased's family and Geu-Ru's reactions when his father did not come back are really tear-jerking.
But idk what happen after that... The story becomes so-so...?
The story is good, but some plots felt forced. But the story when they focus on the main characters is heartwarming. I was hoping the story will focus more on the job, but nah, so many unnecessary additions. Sometimes they forced the romances too (not the one with Na-Mu, trust me Na-Mu is a really cute and caring childhood friend, her mom is annoying tho.)
For the acting and the characters, I really like Geu-Ru's Father. Damn, he should be still alive and be the main character. His character is sooo good. Ji Jin Hee's acting is perfect. Lee Je Hoon did a good job too. I usually love his character at first sight but this one is nope LOL, like what they intend, a trash uncle. The uncle really annoying at first but we can see that he slowly caring for his nephew. Some people hate Na-Mu but I think it's understandable why she care so much to Geu-Ru. And Tang Jun Sang as Geu-Ru? He portrayed an Asperger character really well, sometimes I thought it was not acting because it felt so real.
The music/ost is so-so. Not memorable, and it was just classic music pianos.
TLDR: it's a good tv series but I can't say it's a perfect 10/10. It's felt so messy that I hope they didn't add too many problems with the characters.

Conmovedora
Comencé a ver la serie porque Netflix la había recomendado un par de ocasiones, pero no le había prestado atención.No había leído la sinopsis, no sabía de que trataba, estaba yendo a la aventura.... ¡Y vaya aventura! De las mejores series que he visto desde hace tiempo. Te engancha desde el primer momento, empatizas con cada historia que cuenta y con sus personajes. Es una serie para reír, llorar, ponerte de los nervios y de mil emociones más.
Es fresca, enternecedora y te hace reflexionar sobre tu vida, y me parece maravilloso.
Es un sí rotundo, para todas aquellas personas que quieran ver as aventuras de Geu-ru y su tío.
