(Xports News reporter Lee Ri-jin) ‘The girl who is different during the day and night’ Jung Eun-ji was attacked by Bae Hae-sun.
In the 14th episode of the JTBC weekend drama “A Girl Who Differs from Day and Night” (hereinafter referred to as “Day and Night”) aired on the 28th, Gui Zhixiong (played by Choi Jin-hyuk) grew suspicious of Lee Mi-jin (played by Jung Eun-ji), and the body of Lee Mi-jin (played by Jung Eun-ji) was discovered to have been switched with Lim Soon (played by Lee Jung-eun).
That day, Lee Mi-jin overslept, and when she found out that Gui Zhixiong had come to her house, it was already too late. Afraid of revealing her identity, she quickly ran away.
Lim Chang (Jung Young-joo) caught Lee Mi-jin while she was fleeing with Lim Soon’s body and dragged her to the police station. Eventually, Lee Mi-jin ran into Gui Zhixiong, who sheepishly asked, “Aren’t you a staff member?”
Lee Mi-jin was released thanks to Gui Zhixiong, who said, “Please tell me what happened.” With tears in her eyes, Lee Mi-jin replied, “I want to talk too. That’s it.”
Gui Zhixiong responded, “You are also lying about being the aunt of Meizhen’s friend? Who are you? Why did you sneak into Meizhen’s house? Should we go to the interrogation room together? I trust you immensely. Let me ask you one last thing: ‘What are you doing?'”
Gui Zhixiong expressed his frustration, saying, “Can’t you even say this?” Lee Mi-jin left in tears.
Afterward, Lee Mi-jin submitted her resignation, and Gui Zhixiong asked, “I’m just curious. Does Meizhen know about this? What is your relationship with Meizhen? Did you do it? Are you trying to get a job using Meizhen’s missing aunt’s name?”
Gui Zhixiong remarked, “Now, Mi-jin’s mother is looking for Ren Shun. She said she knew he was her biological sister. What will you do? How are you going to take all the responsibility? Will you hurt the hearts of innocent people? I know the investigators believe me too.” However, Lee Mi-jin concealed that she had exchanged bodies with Ren Shun.
Furthermore, the murderer that Lee Mi-jin witnessed was Na Ok-hee (Bae Hae-sun). Na Ok-hee imprisoned Lee Hak-chan (Jung Seok-yong) to lure Lee Mi-jin. Lee Mi-jin rushed to the spot designated by Na Ok-hee to rescue Lee Hak-chan.
In the end, Lee Mi-jin was attacked by Luo Yuxi, which heightened the tension in the drama.
