Blending body-swap fantasy, workplace drama, romantic comedy and serial killer thriller into one prime-time package, the K-drama Miss Night and Day has a little something for everyone.
But with so many ingredients knocking around the cauldron it’s a potion that sometimes merely placates rather than pleases.
Thankfully, what does work is the element that most people are tuning in for: the show’s fantastical conceit of a young woman who suddenly turns into an older woman during the daylight hours.
