A way to honor the dead and the living in a valuable critique...
I've been anticipating for this drama ever since I saw the trailer and it blew my and everybody else minds so it seems.
Move to Heaven it is a small compilation of valuable morals, and a critique to society and the way we evaluate death, loss and our petty priorities. It also depicts the spectrum of disabilities, traumas and the morbid view of life and death.
My only critique to this drama is the fact that it only has 10 episodes of 45 minutes each, but at the same time I am equally pleased by how the plot merged with the cases and how well the characters did their roles here, it's hard to put into words, on how much I appreciate this drama, the author, the actors and production for presenting us this MASTERPIECE.
I was also really excited to see Jun Sang in a main role again after watching him be the maknae in CLOY where he did a support character although still lovable. Playing GeuRoo into only widened his range of acting skills, because he delivered a special role, portraying a character with autism and who also suffered from selective mutism in his childhood years. The way he talked and his antics only made GeuRoo who he is, a special, highly intelligent and always curious, caring boy who has is still trying to figure out life when he suffers another huge loss. They way him and his dad can perceive and try to comprehend their departing costumers by their personal belongings is really meaningful.
JeHoon is another who is on fire lately on his roles, and being an avid fan of Taxi Driver (since it's another drama of him that I am currently following), I loved seeing him in this unconventional role of SanGoo, a worn out boxer and ex-convict that feels bitter towards his life. Thinking he was abandoned by his own brother, and unfortunately responsible for "killing" his protégé and in a way best friend and little brother, SuCheol. Beneath that hard shell of him against the world, is that scared child that was left behind, the one that yearned for his hyung to come back for him. It's sad to know that in the end they didn't cope or got to meet to amend their broken bond. That he learned late of the truth, but still the best way he can repay and improve is by being on GeuRoo's side. The fact that he Has a development of character is really heartwarming to watch. The scene where he collects SuCheol belongings just as GeuRoo does and puts it in a box the same way as the Move to Heaven style, and discovers new things he hadn't had knowledge before was such a touching scene of the many this drama has to offer.
SeungHee as Namu served as a comical relief sometimes, with her crush on GeuRoo and her constant bickering with SanGoo.
The endless emotional stories that this little drama presented were touching and realistic accurate that can be relatable.
Not going to lie the first episode was the start of this quite unique emotional ride. Not for the faint of heart.
I have heard of this job before, Trauma Cleaners do have a tough but also rewarding job sometimes. They get to know people who leave their stories behind in their personal belongings, in their homes, scattered pieces like a puzzle waiting to be placed together. Stories of a lifetime, placed in a box of a few personal items that can tell a lot about the late person.
It made me wonder, as I looked around my own room, what my box would look like if it had my personal belongings.
As morbid as it sounds, I've come to realize that there's not many things I would see in there that could really define me.
Perhaps one or two could define me in general, however there was nothing really relevant that could be placed in a yellow box of mine. Then again maybe that's my purpose, still in this fickle path called LIFE, to find the missing pieces of my own puzzle.
Another thing I would like to point out in this drama besides the amazing realistic storyline, is without a doubt the remarkable choice of music. Not everyday where in a drama like this, Classical Music is notorious or even commended. And yet in here not only it has a wide variety of pieces, but I was pleased to see the full names of the said pieces in the credits. There were quite a few of my favorites in there too, and the scenes where they were played when GeuRoo worked and put his earphones were so deeply meaningful and it gave a certain peace to see. It might be scenes dealing with taking care of the deceased belongings, but at the same time those chosen songs gives them their own peace as Move to Haven takes care of their final move.
I love how this teach us morals and values, within the spectrum of life and death, love and loss, and in the way on how it depicts the 5 stages of grief in each case and also with our two main characters, GeuRoo who wasn't fond of the idea of letting his father go, and SanGoo who also couldn't let go of SuCheol. Both struggling with denial and aceptance of their own losses.
In the end they both also learn with their losses, surpassing the 5 stages through the storyline.
It's a blessing in only 10 episodes, heartbreaking, heartwarming, tear-jerking, and meaningful ride.
That I highly recommend to everyone. Don't be discouraged by the heavy "theme", this centers more on the sidelines and personal stories than any gory death or anything like that, this drama focus on the lost messages for the loved ones left behind, or the memorials and respect in life and death, and on how valuable each and every life it no matter what age, gender, background, etc.
Every single person has a story to tell.
Move to Heaven, provides the means of those who couldn't tell theirs in their lifetime.
Definitely a 10 out of 10 from me.
