Move to Heaven Season 1 Netflix Release Date

Thanks to the release of the teaser trailer, we can now confirm this Move to Heaven will premiere on Netflix on Friday, 14 May 2021.

Since the series is a full Netflix Original and is not licensed internationally, this means 16 episodes will be available for streaming at the time of release.

Move to Heaven Season 1 Netflix Plot

Thanks to Netflix’s early press release, we do actually know the basic premise for Move to Heaven. The show focuses around two ‘trauma cleaners’, Gu-ru (Tang Jun-sang) and Sang-gu (Lee Je-hoon).

Gu-ru has Asperger’s syndrome and is left alone in the world when his father suddenly passes away. However, his uncle appears one day after being released from prison and takes over as his legal guardian – much to the suspicion of Na-mu, a neighbour and only friend of Gu-ru.
