Sensory Couple

Sensory Couple  or  The Girl Who Sees Smells, actually is a based on the webcomic “Naemsaereul Boneun Sonyeo” by Man Chwi which was first published from 2013-July-23 via “cartoon.media.olleh“.





3 years ago, Choi Moo Gak (Yoochun) lost his younger sister in the “BarCode Murder Case”. Since then he has become cold and insensible. Meanwhile, Oh Cho Rim (Shin Se kyung) miraculously survived in the same incident. Since then she had an amnesia, but also gained the ability to see smells.


Synopsis:

Choi Mu-gak's younger sister Eun-seol was killed in the "Barcode" murder case. Her death leaves him so traumatized that he vows to catch the murderer. He also develops a strange side effect where he cannot feel pain. He leaves his job at the aquarium, and becomes a detective three years later for the sole purpose of reopening the investigation into his sister's death.

Oh Cho-rim dreams of becoming a comedienne, though she keeps failing at her gagman auditions at TV networks. She has no memory of her life before waking up in the hospital at the age of 19, after a six-month coma. Cho-rim doesn't know that she once had a different name, lost her parents to the Barcode Murderer, and was the sole eyewitness to that crime.

 

Since the coma, all her senses have become hypersensitive, except she can't smell anything either. But Cho-rim can "see" smells, and can even trace where people have been because their lingering smells are like a visible trail. So she teams up with Mu-gak to catch the killer.
