Kojima praised how the supernatural action-drama show handled the carefully intricate espionage tale spanning two generations (parents and their children), and how the show kept getting better with each episode.

I just finished watching all 20 episodes of the Korean drama Moving (2023) on Disney Plus in 4 days. Wow, this is awesome! Super fun to watch! I watched the last 3 episodes and cried the whole time. It’s not often that I get to cry during an action scene. At first, I thought it was going to be a romantic comedy about a school, but it turned into a full-fledged espionage story spanning two generations of parents and children.
