Miss Night and Day: The content is "muddy", the female lead has two personalities, fans are tired of laughing

Just aired not long ago, the Korean drama Miss Night and Day made the audience hold their stomachs from laughing too much, thanks to the impressive script and the female lead's immersive acting.

After the movie Even though I'm Not a Hero ended, JTBC continued to collaborate with Netflix to release a new humorous and romantic work called Miss Night and Day. Miss Night and Day tells the story of Lee Mi Jin (played by Jung Eun Ji), a young girl who one day mysteriously wakes up as an old woman. Taking this opportunity, Mi Jin starts a new life as a senior intern at the Seohan District Prosecutor's Office under the name Lim Soon (played by Lee Jung Eunm).

On the evening of June 15, She Day and Night aired its first episode and the audience's reaction was extremely positive. Episode 1 opens the story of Lee Mi Jin (Jung Eun Ji) - a single woman in her 20s facing a job crisis. She tried for many years but still could not pass the civil service exam. When she continued to fail the exam she thought was her last chance, Min Ji was completely pushed to the brink of despair. Moreover, she was also deceived by a scammer of all her money. He seduced her, saying that as long as she spent the money, the exam would be successful.

Continuous failure makes Min Ji beg to become someone else. Unexpectedly, that request would come true. The next morning she woke up as a woman over 50 years old (now played by Lee Jung Eun). Min Ji was extremely shocked but then tried to regain her composure, doing everything she could to prove to her family that she was the real Min Ji. Even in the form of a woman in her 50s, Min Ji danced crazily. She then tried to find a way to rescue herself by going to a cosmetic hospital, a dermatologist, and even a fortune teller, but all were helpless. In the midst of the most deadlock, a ray of light flashed when Min Ji saw a company's advertisement for intern recruitment. She decided to apply and surprisingly, in her new form, she found her job.

After episode 1 aired, the audience was strongly impressed with the humorous content of the film, especially the performance of female lead Lee Jung Eun. She perfectly expressed the appearance of Min Ji in her twenties, full of enthusiasm but also extremely confused and stuck. The scenes where Min Ji dances in front of her family or during a job interview all make the audience laugh out loud. Many viewers even praised that this is the funniest movie on Korean screens at the moment.

There is a moment when the main character gives up. life and wanting to be someone else, and I'm curious how she will live. It's a difficult time for her to get a job, and I think it will be a movie that brings sympathetic and comforting to young people when the director and screenwriter, famous for his horror works, proposed, I immediately agreed.

On her side, Jung Eun Ji said, "I found the script very attractive. The idea of [the character] being different between day and night and two people playing one role is interesting.
