The Girl Who Sees Smells - Sensory Couple - 냄새를 보는 소녀 Episode 8

Mu-gak lies bleeding on the ground at the storage building, but thank goodness a security guard finds him and calls an ambulance. He’s wheeled into surgery, with Lieutenant Yeom there to monitor the situation. She answers his phone when Cho-rim calls, worried that he didn’t show up to meet her, and tells Cho-rim what’s happened. Cho-rim makes it to the hospital just as Mu-gak is settled into a room after his surgery, and she pretty much loses it when she sees him lying unconscious. Yeom leads her into the hall to calm down, and tells her that Mu-gak lost a lot of blood, but he managed to say that he saw the murderer’s face before he lost consciousness.

As Mu-gak explains the meaning of the barcodes carved into the killer’s victims, the other detectives make a chilling realization — if the ISBN numbers are chronological, then the first known murder from five years ago is not the first victim of the Barcode Killer. Lieutenant Yeom does a little on-the-fly profiling, describing the killer as educated, self-disciplined, neat, and physically strong. We see Chef Jae-hee engage in a strenuous exercise program, revealing an incredibly strong physique which explains how a relatively average-sized man dominates his victims so easily.

It’s Moo Gak’s turn to get drunk and pass out while Cho Rim gets a chance to take care of him.

Moo Gak assists Cho Rim over to the sofa and orders her to sit down like he would a dog. Ahahaha. Even better is Cho Rim doing as he ordered, sitting down and then plopping over. Moo Gak covers Cho Rim with his jacket when Detective Yeom tentatively asks Moo Gak who this girl is? He describes her as his dongsaeng named Oh Cho Rim and that ends her questions about whether she could be the missing daughter. Detective Yeom packs up and heads out, leaving Moo Gak alone with Cho Rim in the office.
