this finale was so beautiful. everything was so well closed off. yes we will never know who won the final match, but im actually really happy about that. like a bit of an open ending, but not really. we can decide for ourselves who won. also if taeyang and taejun made it to the national team.. and if junghwan will ever be able to also join again. also thinking about seungwoo and youngsim... they are gonna buy things for youngsim's future place together. theyre so cute. although they're technically not together yet.. We all know they will have a happy ending. i was really satisfied with this last episode. i got so scared in the trailer because we saw the ambulance and ofc hoped everything was alright with taejun, but it ended up being for taeyang. and that flashback of taejun and his old partner, when he was injured and taejun refused to play + taeyang quoting that. absolutely adorable. it was kinda funny too. many characters i hated in the beginning/middle i have started to come to terms with and maybe even like now. especially junyoung and junghwan. i really liked both of their characters this last episode. junghwan did make such a stupid comment when he gave that necklace to yumin and i know he means it well, but he needs to start moving on. i get he's not in love with junyoung anymore, but to keep bringing her up is just weird. the scene where he told the other teammates everything that happened between junyoung, taeyang and taejun was funny tho. i didnt expect him to do that. he seems like such a "ugh leave me alone. it's none of my business. i don't care" type of person, but he has really proven that he does care for his friends. we knew he did in the past, but now when he found out taejun's knee was still hurting badly. he was actually concerned, but not in an annoying way. i can talk about how much i love this episode for days. even that taejun's mom called taeyang. i wished we would've seen the dinner scene. i love how taeyang called taejun and told him how he has a 100% winning rate. that was truly so funny and adorable and i just love it so much. even after he said that he had a 80% winning rate when he got together again, when taeyang's dad and the coach (yumin's dad) were drinking and called their son's in law (aka junghwan and taejun) to prove who's better. exactly what they did to yumin and taeyang too. that was so funny. i hated yumin and junghwan at first but they really have become so cute together. this episode was funny, cute, happy, emotional a bit, but most of all very exciting and satisfying to watch. 10/10
It made me ponder a lot about the beauty and inevitability of death. You know how when the people you love died and you tend to search for their last remains. The last thing they touched.
Their last message. What were the thoughts of people whom they have interacted with? You smell the fresh sheets and clothes they left.
What kind of legacy did they have when they departed. This show perfectly describes that feeling. It defined death and the feeling of losing someone in such a beautiful way.Apart from the aforementioned, on the technical things in this series, the one who played Geu-ru was phenomenal. It seems that he really studied his role for this as well as Sang gu for being a slightly sluggish personality. It made me cry especially on the third and tinal episode. The OST was also well-picked EXCEPT on grieving parts about their client's death. However, Geu-ru's taste in classical music is still nice. This drama may not be one of my most favorite but you will definitely learn a thing or two from it.
Everything about Move to Heaven is wonderful and honest. heard that this is rated as 19+ in Korea, but it's quite understandable since death remains a taboo in their country (or in any country, I guess). But again, that's the beauty of it, it tackles death in the most unconventional yet frank way of its nature.
