Em Movimento

And produced by Disney and not hindered by a writers strike and a budget with better production value and a better ensemble cast and written with pathos and strong world building and provenance away from typical superhero tropes.

It'd still be a hard comparison to this webtoon TV adaptation.

This is a great vehicle for Disney's first foray into S. Korean television production. It's a genre spanning, fantastical, coming-of-any-age heroes journey for the whole family. So many feels. Disney definitely took some tips from recent experiences and understood the new assignment.

When you tire of the Marvel multiverse on Disney+, hop on this bandwagon, far better watch.

Moving intimately understands what the superhero genre storytelling is best at: less about what superheroes' powers are, and instead how the powers affect their lives and the people they care about. Moving is really a family drama masquerading as a spy thriller and superhero coming-of-age story, with its central ethos being that at the end of the day, we are all human trying to survive and protect each other as best as we can.

All the stories come full circle in such a perfect way towards the end however it also leaves us with some shocking revelations.

Overall: Moving is a series that is definitely worth watching if you're a fan of K-dramas or superhero stories.

Moving is a big-budget Disney+ original series surrounding three high school students with genetic superhuman abilities living quietly with their retired parents. But their lives turn upside down when powerful organizations start to hunt them down one by one.

Moving is reportedly the most expensive Korean TV series to date and it really shows in the production. It has massive action sequences, and extensive fight scenes that get so graphic you'd think you're watching The Raid movies. The visual effects look fantastic and there's this stunning flying scene at the end of episode 7 that looks straight out of a hollywood superhero picture.

But the best thing about this series and why it works so much is because of the sublime casting. From the top acclaimed cast to the young leads, there's no weak link as everyone clearly delivers and it's satisfying to see the young actors keeping up and not being outshined by their seniors.

Another thing, despite the packed main characters with respective back stories, Moving's seamless shifts between the past events and present timeline keeps the mystery and anticipation active. It also truly helps that the protagonists who are taking us through the story are endearing and charismatic. And although this centers around people with super powers, it still feels very much grounded and the in-depth relationship between the characters is still the main aspect of the story.

Moving brilliantly blends action, drama, romance, humor, and creates this high-class and exhilarating superhero drama full of heart that we rarely see in Asian TV. Let's support quality content and stream Moving available worldwide on Hulu and Disney+.

When Tim Kring's Heroes first aired in 2006, I watched in awe. That series was a groundbreaking one (the first season only). Hiro Nakamura, Claire Bennet, Peter Petrelli, Niki Sanders, you named it and I can recall their fantastic moments in Heroes.

Fast forward 2023, South Korean launched their own superheroes drama series. I can't help but thinking about Heroes because the vibe was so similar. The beautiful Go Youn Jung was as pretty as the cheerleader Hayden Panettiere (save the cheerleader save the world right?!). The simple hearted Kim Bong Seok just as heartwarming as Hiro Nakamura. Electric man Cha Tae Hyun was just as tragic as Peter Petrelli.

One thing that differentiate Moving from Heroes was its POV. Every episode, we were treated with different vibes from different characters. One episode felt just like teenage K-Drama series, another one felt like office romance series, and the other would felt like mob movie. This really makes us wonder what comes next?!

A 20 episodes series that really grasp our attention 9/10.

This series is so good that I can't express it. I have watched many Korean, Jap, English and American series that are not based on thriller, mystery and crime genre and can still be very much engaging and binge worthy, this is one of those shows.

I can easily recommend it to anyone without having second thoughts. Not being a mystery-thriller and still being able to grip us to the show is really something I appreciate about it.

Screenplay, Story, Plot are top notch.

If you're into Korean content it's a must watch.

If you're tired of the same old superhero movies and TV shows, check out Moving on Disney+. It's a fresh take on the genre that's way better than Secret Invasion and recent Marvel projects.
