THE GIRL WHO SEES SCENT SONG JI HYO SERIES
This series had heart and passion and a really good message within a message that sneaks up on you by the end of the story line.
THE GIRL WHO SEES SCENT SONG JI HYO MOVIE
The American novel had cutesie moments and the movie was a guilty pleasure paradise with pretty people. Of course, this is not saying that the series was anything like A Walk to Remember outside of the dying female protagonist base plot. It was a very A Walk To Remember (the movie, not the book) nostalgic progression. She goes on a vacation, tries to seduce the main male lead, pampers her mother, seeks revenge on her evil coworkers, and even starts maintaining a bucket list of all the things she wants to do before she dies. The beginning of the series was quite exciting as the story sets itself up for Yeon Jae's embarkment into "fun and exciting last days of my life" territory. And so she quits her life-sucking job and vows to live the rest of her life to the fullest, including falling in love and being loved. It had never occurred to her before that there would come a time when "tomorrow" may not exist at all until she is diagnosed with gallbladder cancer and told that she would only have six months left (at the most) to live. Lee Yeon Jae is a woman who has lived a dull life with that "I can wait until tomorrow" mentality. Scent of a Woman, as mentioned already, is a sort of journey to self-fulfillment. More thoughts on the entire series as a whole will be discussed in a future article (as is typical of my formats). The most recent Scent of a Woman post chronicles only my thoughts about the story line up to Episode Ten, but it doesn't give much in the sense of detail about the entirety of the first ten episodes. I read about the series to re-aquaint myself up to where I had left off, as well as giving myself a better understanding of the series, storyline and characters and all.Īnd then I dove right back into the series. I had to brave it and what better way to do as much than to ready myself all over again by reading all those nice recaps from Dramabeans. But after finishing up two more series that were less angsty in comparison and then beginning other series randomly, I finally decided that it was time to stop putting off the ending of Scent. Having grown to care about the love line as well as Lee Yeon Jae and her two potential love interests, I wasn't ready for another cry-fest. Unforunately, Warrior Baek was a different story altogether - nonetheless, it included a tragic end (see link above).Īnd so, once again, I found myself avoiding the ending of Scent of a Woman.

Nonetheless, I'm not saying it was a bad thing, because in my own opinion, the execution of that full on hit of tear-inducing sadness wasn't too inappropriate. For Gumiho, it hadn't started off with melancholic expectations, but halfway through, it was a given and I was ready for the angst - but I hadn't expected it to be so tumultuous. Needless to say, I was not in the right mindset to keep watching these extremely depressing scenarios, more than once in a row. And so what do I do? I chose Warrior Baek Dong Soo. Scent of a Woman was set up to be tragic from the get-go, and unless some sort of seriously lame miracle of god (a la THE ALMIGHTY PRODUCTION STAFF) chooses to somehow cure her cancer and let her live, happily ever after, I was ready for a tear-jerking ending.Īnd so for the next two weeks after finishing My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, I avoided Scent of a Woman, telling myself I would watch something more light-hearted first before completing my watch of this series.
