She Is Different Day and Night (2024)

fantasy that forgot it was fantasy

we need more "ahjumma" centered dramas, like dear my friends
The good
I’m glad this year there were plots that lets ahjummas shine (also connection)
MLs cute smiles
the sweet and alive parents

The meh
I love eunji, tho yeah her character 😴
Murder mastery plot twist, tho the murderer😴

The bad
It was practically an office drama
Drrrraaagggy
Eventho ml had cute smiles, the romance was non existent
Which makes me think if they got together sooner and stuff, it’d have been even duller
Tbh without mom, I’d not have continued 😬
eventho it was "fantasy" it was just practically just an office drama


they kept the double identity a secret and lost half the charm, the only fun parts were when Ju Byeong Deok saw the idol with the ahjumma

I would interpret not telling him cuz she was involved in “identity theft”
And sure she didn’t tell her parents cuz she wanted them to think the job she got was hers

But I wanted her to empathize that a bit more especially since she was stealing her aunts identity
But I never felt like she was feeling any remorse or guilt for that and she just didn’t want them to know or actually feared that, she was just ok living life like that

Her father was in danger just cuz he went to the murderer on his own
Which is stupid cuz why would’ve he “hired her” to look for his sil when she was just a “waitress”🤦🏻‍♀️ then go back to her when she never found anything 🫠

The villain didn’t know her identity until she saw the pic on his phone, she just knew the face she never knew the name


So yeah the story didn’t have any solid writing and every ep was a filler🤣

The Female Lead disappoints.

I watched because of CJH, having seen his impressive acting before. His chemistry with all the actors in this show is quite good resulting in many well-executed comedic moments. Except with the FL. Her acting is forced, voice and facial expressions monotonous, laughter irritating. Their scenes together are quite awkward and amateurish and i'm very sure it's not CJH's fault. it also doesn't help that the script is written fairly well for all characters except for the conversations between the 2 leads. Bottomline, i like many parts of this series except that i can't get rid of the irritation brought about by the FL. They should have chosen a better actress.

A Fun Time

FL Mi Jin is a job seeker👩‍💼 struggling to find employment for a couple of years now. A recently scammed, desperate and frustrated 😠 Mi Jin has lost all hopes of realising her employment dreams. When she suddenly gets gifted with super powers by a magical cat 🐈. What kind of superpowers you might ask? A power that will help her find a job? Nope. Her power is that she turns into a granny 👵during the day and back to normal during the night👧. To my biggest surprise and I know to yours as well she is able to get a job as her granny self. (Wow shows it's easier to get a job as a retired elderly person than a young graduate looking to a entry into the working field.) Anyway said powers curse or gift were given for a reason as it can help her find her aunts killer🔪! How? I don't know 🤔because as things turned out she didn't need to be old to find the killer, in fact the killer found her. The powers I believe was fun addition or distraction used to add tension between the FL and ML. Frustrating!!!

This drama was fun and I have to admit I laughed a bit. The FL and ML actually worked together, i felt the chemistry👩‍❤️‍👨. For criticism: 1. The Cat🐈!!! How did it become magical? Where did it come from and why now?? Was the cat the soul of her aunt? HOW IS THIS AGING THING EVEN POSSIBLE!!! 😵‍💫But I guess this is was we call a plot device, some unexplainable thing that just moves the plot along. 2. The useless 2nd male lead🙅‍♂️. Honestly the 2 ML was not needed in the drama. The fact that he just disappeared in the last 2 episode proves this. 3. The villain was so easy to spot. I mean the moment I met her I instantly knew she was the serial killer. 4. The writing and pacing. This could have easily been a 10 episode drama. The stories were draged for no reason.😵
However, I enjoyed it, fun watch. If you're in a slump and really need something to watch I suggest you give this a try.
Ps. Coming into this drama with no expectations is the only way you will enjoy it. Rating one👍

I like this Drama until ep 8 was going to watch till end

This was nice drama until ep8
after that just like every other drama writer started taking free drugs
FL has turn into a dirt in ep10,
ML deserve better person in his life, Physical attraction is not anything
character is too,
this only Drama where i want ML to be more Cold then what they calling cold, but he is very warm hearted person
while FL is selfish Idiot

In this same story if Genders are reversed that ML would be a playboy jerk scambag,
but since its FL she is allowed to lead two man
and creepy IDOL do all idols born mannerless ?
picking someone else phone and Answering it without permission but , Fl would be super fine with it,
having friend like Creepy SML is a clear sign your girlfriend is going to cheat sooner or later
so its better to distance before she become your girlfriend
it was 10/10 until ep 10 aired i was hoping they would clear thing up, but FL just admitted her character being lose at end

FL first try to kiss ML without his consent
then she spend a night with another man(searching for cat)
but that man pick her phone without her permission and talk shit to ML
that's it ML doesn't need to go after that mess of person, he is better of alone can surely find a better girl.......

Hope FL die from old Age with her creepy Idol.

FL deserve some jail time for identity theft and JOB fraud

Not just a classic romantic Korean drama

Very well produced k drama. There is no unnecessary plot (side stories), it is funny but at the same time it approaches a sensitive topic in a very good manner: job hunting, job opportunities for elderly and work environment in South Korea. Other problems, such as corruption and illicit activities are also part of the plot, but the way this drama handles it makes it easy to watch, one can really immerse oneself in the story. It is original and funny. Love, comedy, mystery, suspense, awareness of real life situations: this show has it all! I have watched MANY dramas and this one is no doubt one of my favourites.

Almost dropped this half way through episode one and wasn't going to give it a chance at all only I'm so glad I did!

Not a rom-com fan so have had to fast forward through a few predictable boring moments between Mr Cold and Miss Night, but on the most part each episode has been fine.

With the main leads (young ones) I have to say I'm not really into their dynamics at all nor the hot/cold shoulder treatment or whimsical hurt female after being rejected or whatever the situation might be.

The humour in this is great, however, and the timing is on point.

I've actually enjoyed the relationship between Miss Day and the second lead - it is so hard case.

Watching their scenes over and over again is something I could do quite easily just for the laugh. For example, the cafe scene in Episode 9.

Am also enjoying the true crime mystery to it, but not how there always seems to be a connection between the leads from crossing paths somehow in their childhoods.

Anyhow, 6 episodes to go and I'm hoping this keeps me invested until the end!

Recommended!

Basic Story + SLS (Spoiler Free)

SLS HARD!! Both MLs are flawed, which is nice bc it's very realistic, but I don't love how savior-y the first lead is with the FL. The second lead is kind, attentive, and playful. He cares from the jump, and notices first when the FL is upset or missing. He also seemed to have been intrigued by her/fallen for her personality initially when she was in old-mode which i found cute and unique lol.

Otherwise, the drama is very cut and dry, and follows the same template most of them do. It took me 3-4 episodes to be interested in the 2 main characters at all. I think if there wasn't the gimmick of her having the old curse, I wouldn't have kept watching. It's pretty predictable, and the pacing drags at times. I do think the actress who plays the FL while she's old did a great job, and it must have been so fun to film some of the scenes. Made me think of old people more cutely XD

Imagine you turn into an old version of yourself during the day

Honestly this reminded me so much of Howl’s moving castle. Though the premise isn’t the same (where the character in the anime was old constantly and only young again when she accepts herself for herself), the concept of the FL turning into an older version of herself still held the similarity together.

This was such a weird concept for a K-Drama especially since the FL was going to work for the ML whilst simultaneously liking him- which means the older version of herself crushed on the normal young ML, plus the second lead also crushed on her and even showed fondness of her when she was an old lady? It’s so silly and although describing it like that sounds crazy, I guess watching it made it look a little less creepy lol..

So the FL turned into an old lady during the day and back to herself during the night. I always wondered how the ML and the parents never questioned once why they couldn’t see her during the day. I get being busy because of work (since that was her only excuse), but still…this lasted for so long and nobody questioned it?! Especially the ML…considering the fact that he’s a prosecutor who also investigates a little on the side, how was he not questioning this sooner? But I digress.

Overall I really enjoyed the show, it was hilarious!!! I recognised the ML actor immediately because of Mr.Queen K-drama. He’s such a good actor for comedies, I wish he gets casted in more future shows- and please…give him roles similar to Mr.Queen…the bland/cold ML personality types don’t suit him imo. The only time he looked good in the show was when he blushed and giggled over the FL hehe

On another note, I loved the main couple so much that the second lead didn’t tug on my heartstrings at all. Maybe a little bit but the show made it clear that the FL never had feelings for the second lead so it was easy to ship her with the ML.

And also, man…I don’t know how to feel about the best friend with the older guy who’s best friends with the ML…they just…do not fit AT ALL.

He looks like he could be her dad…genuinely the last thing I thought would happen. Did the writers write that in last minute? There was no spark between them the first time they met and then the second time suddenly something happened? Lol…I don’t know, it just felt so random and maybe it was added for comedy purposes but the fact that they’re serious about it made it a little uhhh…I don’t know, uncomfortable I guess.

She looks in her mid 20s and he looks in his early 50s…she’s a naive youtuber and he’s an old dude who was already divorced once. Don’t really get the appeal of them getting together.

Anyway, I’m rating this high because this is the K-Drama that got me out of my K-Drama block. I was struggling to finish everything I started but this one caught me good. I loved it! Comedy in here was top tier, I laughed a lot, especially in the last episode where ML placed his hand on the cactus while trying to flirt with the FL LMAOOO

Overall pretty good!!! I recommend it!

Sheer enjoyment

I thoroughly enjoyed this fantasy . Fantasy is the key word in this drama . It is not meant to be realistic . It is light, funny , entertaining with a dose of murder mystery thrown in .
The ending left me smiling and pleased and charmed with the outcome . The two women actors playing the part of Min Jin were wonderful to watch , trying to cope with their respective situations , capable and full of stamina and desire to do well .
An unusual story , well executed and played by all the cast . Choi Jin hyuk very attractive and convincing in the role .
