Premiered on August 9, this enthralling series swiftly captivated audiences, claiming the title of the most-watched show in the Asia-Pacific region on the streaming platform. In a remarkable feat, "Moving" ascended to the summit of Disney+'s global chart and even outshone Hulu in the United States within the first week of its release.

 

During the fourth-quarter earnings call last month, Disney's CEO, Bob Iger, attributed the surge in worldwide subscribers to the compelling allure of "Moving."

 

"Our robust creative achievements played a pivotal role in driving remarkable growth in our core Disney+ subscribers, with an impressive addition of nearly 7 million in the quarter," stated Iger. He underscored the outstanding performance of key originals across all platforms, singling out "Moving" as a standout success story.

 

Adapted from Kang Full's webtoon of the same name, "Moving" weaves a gripping narrative around a cohort of individuals wielding superpowers. Their clandestine efforts to conceal these abilities from the world serve as a poignant backdrop, driven by an unwavering commitment to safeguard their families from imminent danger.

 

As a testament to its acclaim, "Moving" has garnered a nomination in the prestigious Best Foreign Language Series category at the upcoming 29th Critics Choice Awards, scheduled for January 14. The series continues to leave an indelible mark on the global entertainment landscape, solidifying its place as a powerhouse in the realm of original content.
