From the moment he got caught in episode 15, I was fully expecting him to escape somehow, go into hiding, stalk Cho Rim and Moo Gak, then plan his attack, which would fail – again. They clearly love each other very much and if the last two episodes weren’t basically just a feel-good ending with a side of wrapping-up-loose-ends, then I don’t know what is! The Sense of ClosureĬhef Kwon’s death, I felt, was rather unfortunate in the end. Lastly, we had our beautiful MooRim couple in a relationship in which they support each other through thick and thin. We also had Lieutenant Yeom ( Yoon Jin Seo) and Cho Rim’s older sister-younger sister friendship, in which they were both willing to sacrifice themselves for the other. We had the team of detectives who became close like family with the courage to so emotionally share the love for one another. We had Moo Gak’s double duty of parent and brother towards his younger sister, where it was never a burden for him to take her under his wing. I was incredibly moved when her father said it was okay for Cho Rim to take back her old name, but she declined, citing that she was also his daughter, so she would like to continue to be Oh Cho Rim. We had Cho Rim and her adoptive father’s relationship, which has always tugged on my heartstrings, especially after Cho Rim found out the truth about her past. Sure, we have Chef Kwon’s unfortunate past where he was abused as a child, but the stronger message is this: A family should be loving, positive, warm, and caring. There are so many K-dramas out there filled to the max about dysfunctional families and parents with personalities so vicious, it should have prevented them from ever having children, but it’s different here. One of the things I’m happiest about with “ The Girl Who Sees Smells” is their consistently positive message about family. Say it with me, Soompiers: awwwwww~~ The Sense of Family How unique, how loving, and how beautiful was it that he thought to use her unique ability to see scents… to spray out into the air, with her perfume, the question, “Will you marry me?” (And did anyone else see the side shot of this scene where Shin Se Kyung wasn’t covering her mouth in an act of being touched… but to hide her laughter? LOL)īut what got to me the most, in a heart fluttering, swoon worthy way, was how Moo Gak ended up proposing when it actually happened. His imagined scenarios on how he would propose to Oh Cho Rim ( Shin Se Kyung) was side-splitting hilarious, especially the one where he got down on one knee in front of a crowd and began singing in a heavily accented, overly dramatic tone. What I didn’t know was just how much of a goofball Moo Gak could really be once those layers of guilt and pressure began to shed away. I knew that if Moo Gak’s sister, Choi Eun Seol ( Kim So Hyun), hadn’t been murdered, he would have continued to be the chirpy, cheery, goofy, and warm man that he had been, instead of the hardened and burdened version of him. It was thrilling to see a deadpanned Moo Gak and the side of Chef Kwon that’s weak and childishly fragile. It was also so amazingly clever and hardcore of Choi Moo Gak ( Park Yoochun) to burn the blank notebooks, under the guise that they were the legitimate ones, in order to force Chef Kwon to talk. The fact that Jae Hee went back for his trophy books was ultimately the source of his demise, but when it was revealed just how much those books meant to him last week, I would have expected no less.

I honestly thought that he would be able to make his quick getaway and avoid the feeling of handcuffs on his wrists until, maybe, halfway through the last episode. I was surprised when I saw that Chef Kwon Jae Hee ( Namgoong Min) actually got arrested so early in episode 15.
