Cho Rim hugs her dad and assures him that he will always be her dad even when she finds her real parents. Her dad cries knowing how hard it must be for Cho Rim to have all these questions and not remember her past. Cho Rim cries while thanking her dad for taking care of her. He decided to adopt Cho Rim and take care of her after she woke up.Ĭho Rim asks about her real parents but this time her dad lies that he doesn’t know. He was the detective on the case and saw Cho Rim as the same age as his daughter would have been but his daughter died when she was five. She was in a car accident three years ago and didn’t have any family members to take care of her. Moo Gak suggests going for a walk by the river but Cho Rim declines so that she can go see her dad right now.Ĭho Rim pays her dad a visit and cuts to the chase, asking if her name isn’t Oh Cho Rim and is really Choi Eun Seol? Cho Rim’s dad admits that he’s thought about what to say when this day arrived and truthfully confirms that Cho Rim’s real name is Choi Eun Seol. Chi Rim decides not to talk with Moo Gak about her own situation seeing that he’s stressed out enough. It was Detective Yeom who kicked him out and refused to tell him why.Ĭho Rim takes Moo Gak’s hand to comfort him as he explains how his sister’s death was not as an official bar code killer victim so Detective Yeom allowed him initially to stay on the team so he doesn’t know why she suddenly changed her mind. Cho Rim finds Moo Gak drinking in his apartment and hears he got kicked out of the investigation team. She calls Moo Gak and is surprised to hear that he’s home during the day. Moo Gak’s ultimate revenge for the killer of his sister is the bar code killer so he can’t remain on the team because his emotions are involved.Ĭho Rim rereads Doctor Chun’s letter on the bus ride home and also remembers a production staffer calling her Choi Eun Seol. The high school student who was mistakenly killed as the eyewitness is Moo Gak’s little sister and only family member. The detectives confront Detective Yeom about Moo Gak’s dismissal so she tells them that Moo Gak is a family member of a bar code victim. They order Moo Gak to go home for now and they are on his side and will try to find out from Detective Yeom why he’s being kicked out. Team leader Kang tries to calm the situation down, sending the other two detectives to drag Moo Gak away. Moo Gak doesn’t take his dismissal from the squad laying down, pounding on the door of the team meeting that he’s locked out of and yelling to be told why he’s being kicked out of the team. She apologizes for the books strewn on the floor and the production staff comes up to get them and that saves Cho Rim from any further questioning by Jae Hee. Jae Hee catches Cho Rim reading Doctor Chun’s letter and asks what she’s doing? Cho Rim crumples up the letter and hides it behind her back, explaining that she was just reading her dialogue to prepare because she’s nervous. Detective Yeom also needs to have triple duty protection around Cho Rim instead of allowing her to wander off alone, at this point the girl needs to be under lock and key, preferably chained to her boyfriend’s side. I wish the cops had some excuse to jail Jae Hee now and look for evidence later, which is anathema to all my due process procedural drilling, but for the sake of characters I love in this drama I’m willing to suspend proper protocol if it means getting him off the streets. But then again, the profile of a megalomaniacal serial killer usually includes being too cocky and wanting recognition for his smarts in killing people without being caught outright. Part of me thinks Jae Hee wants or is ready to be caught, why else would he blatantly goad Moo Gak and play word games with him. I am torn on how the drama dealt with the fallout reveal, the usual bouts of distance and noble idiocy, but thankfully Moo Gak getting over the issues beyond his control quicker than Cho Rim. Frankly speaking, this drama didn’t exactly have secrets that people were intentionally keeping, it was just a series of major coincidences that tie characters together in ways they didn’t know about initially. This episode of The Girl Who Sees Smellsmight as well be titled “he knows, she knows, they all know, everyone knows, so now what?” I feel the drama has enough gas in the tank to propel the remainder of the narrative without deflating now that the secrets are out of the bag.
