Actress and singer Jung Eun Ji leads a hectic life in Miss Night and Day.

On June 6, the production team of JTBC's upcoming weekend drama Miss Night and Day released stills of the character Lee Mi Jin, played by Jung Eun Ji.

Miss Night and Day follows the story of Lee Mi Jin (Jung Eun Ji), a young woman who mysteriously wakes up one day as an old lady. Mi Jin begins a new life as a senior intern at Seohan District Public Prosecutors' Office under the name Lim Soon (Lee Jung Eun) after overcoming the shock of her sudden transformation.  

Lee Mi Jin has been taking the civil service exam for eight years and is determined to study with her own money without any financial support from her parents. Despite the costs of academy fees, textbooks, and exam fees draining her finances, she covers her living expenses through various part-time jobs to avoid relying on her parents.

The stills capture Lee Mi Jin's intense schedule as she handles various part-time jobs to support her finances and pursue her goal of becoming a civil servant.

From helping election candidates during campaign season to building her strength by cleaning a climbing gym, she steadily accumulates qualifications and money.

Additionally, her dynamic expression while riding a bicycle through a bustling market catches the eye. The sharp look in her eyes as she skillfully navigates the crowded market hints at her experience working as a delivery person. This raises curiosity about how the unemployed Lee Mi Jin, who throws herself wholeheartedly into her part-time jobs, will succeed.

As Lee Mi-jin — armed with practical experience honed through various part-time jobs, a wealth of knowledge from extensive civil service exam preparation, and certifications for extra points — devotes her youth to a variety of jobs, it remains to be seen whether a flowery path will unfold for her.

Miss Night and Day will premiere on June 15. The K-drama will be available to stream on Netflix.
