Worst. Police. Officers. Ever.

When I read the blurb on The Girl Who Sees Scents, I was intrigued. However, I found myself getting frustrated at how badly the police work was written. I'm not a cop so this isn't a diatribe about policing. But there were common sense things that did not make sense. For example, subduing a criminal but not handcuffing him. Another example was breaking into people's homes and searching them, no cohesion about the old policeman, such as did he retire or did he resign. There was no real resolution about the killer's motives. The only bright spot for me was the acting of Namkoong Min as Chef Kwon. The slow, methodical way in which he played his character was the lone standout in this show to the point that I was rooting for him to win. It's a pity because just a little more attention to detail could have made this a better show.
