Korean tentpole series ‘Moving’ took the world’s fascination as it surged to the top, reigning as the most-watched Korean original on both Disney+ worldwide and Hulu in the U.S., gauged by hours streamed within 7 days. Its first 11 episodes are now available for streaming.

Featuring an all-star cast that includes Ryu Seungryong, Han Hyojoo and Zo Insung in his long-awaited return to a drama series, the story of ‘Moving’ is a whirlwind of international intrigue, lethal assassins, and super-powered espionage.

During its first week of streaming since August 9, the show not only claimed the throne as Disney+’s most-viewed series across APAC (Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan), measured by hours consumed, but also celebrated its title as Korea’s all-time biggest Disney+ debut, assessed by initial week’s streaming hours. The global launch spanned 65 markets and countries on Disney+, accompanied by its Hulu release in the United States.

“The global consumer response towards the first 11 episodes of Moving has exceeded our expectations,” said Carol Choi, Executive Vice President of Original Content Strategy, The Walt Disney Company APAC. “From the U.S. to all across APAC, it is fast becoming a breakout hit with its captivating storyline, world-class cast and incredible post-production effects — all coming together to deliver exceptional storytelling.”

Moving tells the story of a group of South Korean spies working to protect their super-powered children from harm and exploitation at the hands of malicious government agencies. Initially recruited because of their extraordinary abilities including flight, instant healing and enhanced senses, the spies disappeared without a trace after being tasked with carrying out increasingly dubious missions. Now with their children exhibiting similar abilities and a dangerous assassin rapidly picking off super-powered individuals, the parents must leave their peaceful lives behind to become the “monsters” they once were.  

Hailed as “proving the power of quality K-content” by KBS Media, dubbed “a gripping new K-drama action series” by Newsweek, “a superhero story with an emotional core” by Forbes, and a “completely different and new hero story” by Max Movie, the first 11 episodes of Moving are available for audiences to enjoy today. Two new episodes are set to release every Wednesday, with a three-part series finale slated for September 20.

Moving joins a rapidly expanding library of Korean content now available on Disney+, including the Blue Dragon Series Award-winning Big Bet, starring legendary actor Choi Minsik as a serial entrepreneur who repeatedly breaks the law to help bolster his burgeoning casino business; The Zone: Survival Mission; Soundtrack #1 and much more.
