Ella de día, otra de noche

Lee Jung-eun is indisputably the highlight of this show! She masterfully (and adorably) portrays a lady in her 50s acting like she's in her 20s. (She is known to international audiences for her roles in Bong Joon-ho's works like Parasite and Okja, which showcase the physicality in her acting. She boasts a prolific filmography and is wellknown to K-Drama fans for her supporting roles in Mr. Sunshine and When the Camellia Blooms.)

The show is a slice-of-life drama surrounding a prosecutor's office but, at its heart, is a slapstick comedy with a blend of romance and mystery. It explores themes of ageism, government bureaucracy, substance abuse, and social expectations.

The show shines with its lighthearted and humorous moments, but it features a darker storyline, the murder mystery, that has become quite common in K-drama comedies (e.g. Behind Your Touch). So, it's a whimsical blend of dichotomies and contrasts.

I couldn't help but be reminded of Kafka's Metamorphosis when considering the central premise of this show. The physical transformation provides an amusing but thoughtful commentary on ageism.

Don't watch this for realism. As with many K-Dramas, enjoy the rollercoaster ride filled with both humor and heart.

As a person that does not really watch a lot of miniseries, I have to admit that I actually enjoyed this!!! I thought the writer did a great job of bringing together supernatural, suspense, drama, mystery, romance and comedy with a great ending! This is a great show with a great team of actors as well as crew! The story/writing kept me drawn to the all characters. Although there are a lot of cast members, each one had an important part in making the story. Good music and a little dancing were nicely worked into the story as well. If you enjoy happy endings, this is quite an enjoyable and entertaining journey. The story made me experience a lot of emotions that I was not expecting in this show. I am happy I watched this and may look forward to more!!! Highly recommended if you enjoy happy endings!!!

It seems many reviewers took it way to seriously. It's a kind of slapstick comedy and it's one of the funniest i saw in the last months.

There is some kind of romantic involved which is kinda normal for every Korean show and it includes some social criticism as well. But it's not meant to be serious which gets more and more obvious.

Her parents remind me somehow to the couple in Kung Fu Hustle. It's a very weird and funny couple and well played. The main character play her role perfectly and she has really impressive talent for slapstick comedy.

This movie is not for anyone who expect a serious social criticism kdrama but for anyone who wants to have a fun time.

Miss Night and Day has some positives. First and foremost is Lee Jung-eun, who puts so much quirk and energy into playing the eldery version of the female lead-- Lee Mi-jin. The side characters have good chemistry with one another. Choi Jin-hyuk is decent as the male lead. The story contains plenty of hilarious double-life hijinks, wrapped up in a simple but engaging enough murder-mystery.

What ruins the show is the way Lee Mi-jin was written. While her character is meant to be a little air-headed, there were many times where she's stupid to the point of lunacy. The biggest example is her constant failures or refusals to reveal her double-life, even though doing so would basically solve all of her issues. But of course, that would means the end of the drama, so she constantly has to make the most illogical decisions to keep the secret going, despite it convoluting a ****serial killer investigation*** and almost getting her killed several times.

Jung Eun-ji's portrayal of Lee Mi-jin's younger self didn't help. She felt passionless and distant which really didn't match the energetic way Lee Jung-eun played her. Coupled with Choi Jin-hyuk, who's character is already written to be cold and distant, the two felt more like an estranged couple.

The is definitely Lim Sun's story (the older alter ego, Miss Day). You certainly can relate to this as an older person. Her character steals the show and well it should. The performers are spectacular. There is lots of suspense and you fall in love with the majority of the characters. It pretty much all makes sense. My only complaint is that the romance between the prosecutor and Lee Mi-Jin drags out to the point where it feels like she is mistreating him by constantly pushing him away. It's not the best part of the story. It's all Lim Sun...her face is the last thing you see when the series ends. What you are seeing here is a story about Grief and Loyalty.
