“The Girl Who Sees Smells” production crew applauded the all-out performance given by the lead actor Park Yoo-chun. Park takes his acting to a new level in SBS new drama “The Girl Who Sees Smells,” which goes on the air from April 1 after “Hyde, Jekyll, Me.” Based on a popular webtoon, the drama conflates suspense and romantic comedy to tell the story of an ultra sensitive witness who can see smells and an insensate detective who cannot feel any sensation. 

The one-minute trailer showing Park Yoo-chun as detective Mu-gak became an immediate sensation upon release. The first scene of the trailer shows Park Yoo-chun smashing the glass door of a hair salon and fighting someone wearing a motorcycle helmet. Park gets hit with a chair numerous times, but his face remains calm and expressionless as if he truly cannot feel any pain.

The filming of this scene took place in early March. On the set, Park Yoo-chun rehearsed the scene repeatedly with director Baek Soo-chan, martial art director Yang Kil-young, and the actor playing the role of the culprit. When director Baek’s cue sign fell, Park smashed through the glass door and continued with the scene, even as he got hit by objects and a wooden chair broke into pieces. Director Baek gave the “OK” sign after one take, and all the staff who had been watching the scene breathlessly broke out into loud cheers.

“The scene where Park Yoo-chun smashes the glass door and fights the culprit was quite dangerous, but we got a good scene without any accidents because he is very athletic and did the rehearsals extremely carefully,” said a member of the crew. “We are grateful to Park Yoo-chun who is really giving his all, and we hope our ‘Mu-Rim’ couple will splash some romance in the air for our viewers this spring. So please give us your support.”
