Don't mess with my parents!

Moving is at heart, a family drama. Yes, it has a lot of action, supernatural elements and romance as well. But the heart of the drama is the family dynamics, it's what glues everything together. This is a must see for all kdrama lovers, I think everyone can find something they love about it. Warning though; it can be very gory sometimes (had to look away more then once). I'll go into detail down below with what I loved and what could have been done better.

What I loved:
- The acting/casting was great all around, not just from the main cast but also from the supporting cast.
- The romance; it was just done so well. It wasn't sleazy or forced. It all made sense to the overall story. Just *chef's kiss*.
- The dynamics where indeed dynamicing. Especially between Mihyun & Doo shik. Like they really just made a more interesting love story in 2 episodes than 99% of these other kdramas do in 16 episodes.
- Loved the last few episodes. They where able to built up the tension, I was glued to the TV. The ending was also satisfying. The show doesn't need a second season (but I want one, and I can see opportunities for it)
- Moving treats ALL it's characters with love, even all the villains gets backstories.
- Music is just great all around
- Good and fun action scenes. I tend to find action scenes a bit boring sometimes, if there are longer, but that didn't happen with Moving.
- Lee Mi Hyun!


What I loved less (and the reason its not a 10/10 for me):
- The show has a few episodes in the middle that dragged on a bit too long for me. I wasn't super interested in the whole gang stuff, even though I loved the character of Joo Won, his backstory was the least intriguing.
- Wished the show wasn't as "cut up" into parts. I kinda forgot about the kids at certain points, because we had not seen them in so long.
- More of a want from my part, but I just wished we could have seen EVEN MORE of the dynamics between the characters in the present day. It was just too good. Literally the reason why I want a second season.
