OMG! I’m crying my eyes out!
Why am I doing this to myself? A drama about people dying, so fifteen minutes into the first episode of this drama, and I’m already sobbing. This grabbed me within the first five minutes. With most dramas, I have to watch at least three episodes to get interested, but not with this one. It is a very touching, emotional, extremely well acted drama, and I hope it continues being this good.I can tell from now, I will be binge watching this one. I will now commence binging the rest of this, and update my review when I’m done. Hopefully this rating will stay a ten. So... let the binging begin...!On episode six, and it is still a 10!
Just finished this, and I am sitting here crying. Every single episode was good, well acted, well written, emotional, everything... it had it all. I will watch it again, I’m sure several times. Judging by how it ended, I believe there will (hopefully), be a second season. There could be so much more to tell. This drama especially hits you hard if you’ve experienced the death of a loved one. Those emotions hit so close to home when you watch each episode, how the person died, how the family reacts, and the experience of discovering the deceased life, through cleaning out their belongings. One episode was particularly heart wrenching about a young man that searched for his mother his whole life. All I can say is, this is a must watch drama, that will affect you for a while after your are done.

The acting was amazing; I liked how everyone played their parts amazing.
Classical music was fitting and calming.
I think I would watch it if I need a good cry.
Overall, I definitely recommend this show; I definitely want to tell every single person I know to watch it because it really is just a master piece. Of life, death, family and even more. It all played such important parts to life in general.

Touching
Binged watched the show the day it came out. I started crying 15 min into the first episode. The amount of respect and care the characters showed while doing their work was amazing. This show gave a insight in how the aftermath of loss of life unfolds on the belongings and the place they lived in and how different people deal with it in different ways.The series has only a few main characters and it shows that you can make a excellent story with just that. The CGIs were so cute , made it easier for us to understand the thought process of the MC. The way range of scenarios were show and carefully covered was amazing. I am so happy with the cast , that they feel perfect for this show , I wish it had more episodes but the character growth and pace was fine so , maybe a season 2 since it has so much potential.
It also beautifully show how much shame and awkwardness is attached to a person's passing that it is often translated into silence, how hush hush the affair of removing the belonging has to be. Trauma Cleaner deserve more respect.
Our priorities are so , our grief is so and passage of time is slow so complicated , that we work on listening to the person through their belongings , after they have passed and how we try to revive memories in them. A lot of unsaid and unknown unravels when someone passes and then it becomes to late for us to know that. It's a must watch series for growth and healing , for I know most of us ,definitely in lives have Not dealt with atleast one loss fully and this may helps us in a way .

What's in your box?
Move to Heaven is a masterpiece, which I don't really say too often. I watched a lot of dramas before, and I've never seen something quite like this one. It explores complex relationship dynamics, mental health, and death on a deeper, more heartwarming level than most dramas today. I loved every bit of it. From the script to the pacing, everything had a realness from start to finish. While some episodes were more heart-wrenching than others, I found myself still tearing up during every episode. I was at episode 9 before I realized it was only 10 episodes long. It's so good.It really makes you look around and wonder what they'd put in your box after you're gone.

Sang Goo's character development makes it worth the watch
Move to Heaven was just an okay drama for me. The plot moved at a consistently slow pace because the story for the main characters was regularly interrupted with each episode's sub-plot for the trauma cleaning service.I was most interested in the story of the uncle, Sang Goo - his history with the cage fighting and his pupil, and then his history with his older brother, Han Geu Ru's father, were interesting to me. These curiosities were well satisfied, but I found that some of the characters were lacking - Na Moo and Yu Rim (the social worker) were the potential love interests for Geu Ru and Sang Goo, respectively, but they wasn't developed really at all. Madam Jung also wasn't caught in the end - satisfaction-wise, this was not okay for me as the viewer.
I also found the ending to be a bit frustrating - it's obviously left open because Netflix wants the possibility of a season 2, but it's ambiguity was not appreciated.
Overall, I was not expecting the kind of drama I got from Move to Heaven - the tone was much sadder than I had anticipated, especially based on teaser trailers. There weren't laugh-out-loud moments (maybe just moments that made me smile here and there?). But at the same time, I didn't actually cry with this drama, nor did my chest ache for the characters, which I'm completely surprised by...I think this story just failed to move me the way I had anticipated. It's a quick drama to watch and the character development for Sang Goo was definitely worth the watch!

wasted potential-- a rant
I'll just say it: han geu ru is BARELY a character, let alone the MAIN one, and that makes me so mad. i won't talk about the portrayal of people with asperger's because I don't know enough about the topic, but come on, by the trailer i thought we were gonna get a show about how someone whose work revolves around death, deals with the passing of a loved one and their grieving process, but instead, from episodes 2-9, his whole role is of a plot device to help his broken uncle navigate his new job and teach him the power of family.also, let's talk about how almost everyone treats him as a child? my guess is that he was supposed to be younger, but it would've been a hassle to fit in his school life so they just made him 20 years old. they even admit on the LAST EPISODE that we know nothing about him, and still, they told his parents' story instead. what was his life like between his mother's death and the start of the series? i don't know, find out in season 2... maybe.
still, i can't say this is a bad drama by any means. the stories about the clients are beautifully written and are heartbreaking yet inspiring. they manage to make us fall in love with them, empathize with they life journey and cry for their death in just a couple of episodes. SO WHERE WAS THIS ENERGY while writing geu ru's character?

This is one of the best shows I have ever watched!
I swear to god, this is one of the most emotional and best shows, I have ever watched. I cried in this show, it made my heart twinge. The feelings it evoked are too powerful, you should keep a handkerchief near you. It made me see the trauma cleaners in and entirely different light. I really respect them after watching this show. The dead are still living in our hearts once they leave this abode. The dead also have feelings and the trauma cleaners are going through pain of cleaning and eliminating the deads stuff, they end up emotional while doing the job. The director, producer, writer, actors and many more did a remarkable job on this show. One important thing I learned while watching this show is don't hold grudges against anyone, you can never know when they will depart. Just Wow. Just Wow.¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?

With new perception comes great tears TLDR A FUKCING MASTERPIECE
May 16, 2021HOLY FUCKING HELL, I JUST BAWLED THE FUCK OUT OF MY EYES. This show is A FUCKING MASTERPIECE AND WHEN I SAY A MASTER FUCKING PIECE. A LITERAL MASTERPIECE. This show is an eye-opener for people. The plot is well written, every episode you see new stories being told. And you can help but wonder, what new life lesson will I learn? I am so sad to say goodbye to the series, where I finally learned what it feels like to appreciate the little things in my life.
Geuru's Uncle, first of all, I just wanna say that he had the greatest character development out of all the kdramas that I have watched this year. I feel the ounce of betrayal and angst that he felt. I feel pity for the things that he lost and you can say that if he never met Geuru, he would probably living this lifestyle right now.
Nummo (is that how you spell it??) aka Geuru's neighbor friend, I just wanna say thank you to her. She is the greatest friend ever, I love everything that she does and does for Geuru and how her friendship evolved with Geuru's Uncle.
As for Geuru, THE ACTOR THAT PLAYED HIM IS SO TALENTED. I AM SEEING A HUGE POTENTIAL FOR THIS BOY. I DEFINITELY THINK THAT HE WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. I will definitely miss Geuru's personality. He may be timid and only speak when he feels like he needs to. But I fucking love this kid, I will take a bullet for him to be honest.
I HOPE YOU ALL WILL WATCH AND LOVE THIS SERIES. IT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT YOU WON'T EVER REGRET TO WATCH AND SURELY SOMETHING THAT WILL YOU ALWAYS REMEMBER. I HOPE YOU LEARN SOME LIFE LESSONS AS WELL AS YOU PROGRESS THROUGH THE SERIES. BEST WISHES!!

What a lovely story
This review DON’T contain spoilers.So to begin with:: THIS DRAMA IS WORTH EVERY SECOND!
It hit you everywhere.
I needed a bucket and lot of tissues.
Sooo heartwarming ❤️
The drama brings you close to each character.
You really get a kind of bonding and it hurts when a character need to say good bye.
Some story’s are really realistic.
As example: a family that won’t miss you, someone without any family or friends, real events that happens in the past ( the disaster of Sampoong building, illegal adoptions etc.)
What I liked the most are the actors and their acting skills.
They brought every character alive.
Their acting where AMAZING.
In a second you get from a smile on your face to tears or anger.
Amazing job.
And the soundtracks, love it~ ?
The music drag you along to the whole drama.
What I also love the most is this was a different kind of k-drama.
This time no big love triangle, product promotions, drama’s, all the usual stuff in k-drama’s.
A ML with ASS, a FL that is a good supporting friend, crazy, really kind, tuff uncle that will take your heart.
I call it a golden duo.
We need more of this kind of K-Drama.
That take you to a different perspective ?
1000/10

10/10 from an autistic fan
As an autistic man myself, this drama warmed my heart a lot. Geu-ru doesn't share many symptoms with me, personally (as autism is a spectrum), but from other autistic people I've known and my own understanding of the disorder as someone who has it, he was portrayed very accurately and sensitively. I really appreciate the strong support Geu-ru had, both from his father and Na-mu, and the message throughout that just because he has autism doesn't mean he should be treated any lesser. The balance between his support network, and the misunderstanding and mistreatment he got from others was very well portrayed as well. Autistic people's lives are often not easy, as many people don't know what we go through, and often have no interest in learning how to accommodate us, but we're not without hope or understanding. Geu-ru didn't have a tragic life with no friends, but he wasn't free of societal problems either. Aside from the stunning autistic rep, this drama made my best friend and I cry at least three times, and did a very nice job of portraying diversity and complexity in human experiences. The episodic format worked for it well, and every second was enjoyable and satisfying, while overall bittersweet and gentle. Very good vibes from this drama, for sure going to watch it again and probably show my mom!¿Te ha parecido útil esta reseña?
In addition to a strong story arcs for the two male leads, the drama handled the controversial subject matters highlighted in each episode such as domestic abuse, adoption and Korea's history of overseas adoptions, poor work and living conditions for low-paid workers, poor social care for the elderly, etc. with sensitivity and an even hand. My only complaint is the horribly twee final scene of the final episode which was contrived and totally unnecessary.
The music didn't intrude and production value was generally good. I particularly liked the aerial shots of the Move to Heaven van driving through the neighbourhood.
I highly recommend Move to Heaven and look forward to rewatching it.
