Additional Info.

​"The Girl Who Sees Smells shares a core premise between the original webtoon and the drama: the female protagonist, after losing her parents to a criminal, gains the supernatural ability to see smells, while the male protagonist, who also loses his family, develops an interest in violent crimes and becomes a detective. This shared foundation forms the crux of the story. However, there are significant differences between the two versions. In the drama, the names of the main characters were changed, and the female lead's age and personality were altered. The original webtoon’s darker atmosphere and the protagonist's complex inner struggles were replaced with a tone more fitting for a romantic drama. These adjustments shifted the focus of the story, giving the drama a lighter, more romance-oriented feel, distinct from the webtoon’s intense and psychological narrative."​
