To move to a specific label in JavaScript, you can use the label statement and the goto statement.

Syntax:

label: 
// code block

goto label;

Example:

gotocheck: 
console.log('Hello');
goto end;

gotocheck2: 
console.log('World');
goto end;

end:
console.log('End of the program');

In the above example, you can use the goto statement to jump to a specific label. Here, if you run the code, it will output 'Hello' and 'End of the program' because it jumps to the gotocheck label, and skips the gotocheck2 label.

However, it is important to note that the use of goto statement is discouraged in JavaScript as it can lead to spaghetti code and make the code harder to read and maintain. It is generally considered a bad programming practice.
