As a seasoned gamer of K-dramas, I must say that Choi Jin-Hyuk has truly outdone himself with his diverse and captivating roles. From the rebellious queen in Mr. Queen to the time-traveling detective in Tunnel, each character he portrays is unique yet relatable.

The actress famously known as Miss Night and Day, Choi Jin-Hyuk, is a well-known K-drama actor who has graced our screens in numerous popular productions. Initially, he was known by his birth name, Kim Tae-Ho, and began his acting career in 2010 with an SBS series titled It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl. However, it wasn’t until three years later that he landed a breakout role, which came with the drama Gu Family Book.

At present, Jin-Hyuk graces our screens in the JTBC drama titled Miss Night and Day, which concludes on August 4, 2024. This talented actor has made a name for himself through various series like Mr. Queen, Zombie Detective, Rural, Numbers, Justice, The Last Empress, and Tunnel.

Let’s explore some of Miss Night and Day’s Choi Jin-Hyuk’s dramas:

Miss Night and Day

“One of the most eagerly awaited K-dramas for 2024 is titled ‘Miss Night and Day.’ This series brings together popular actors such as Jin-Hyuk, Jung Eun-Ji, and Lee Jung-Eun in the main roles. The story revolves around a woman in her twenties named Lee Mi-Jin who has consistently struggled to secure a permanent job. By taking various part-time jobs, she’s developed an array of skills. In a surprising twist, one morning, she finds herself mysteriously aged to 50 years old. Yet, at exactly 7:00 p.m., she miraculously transforms back to her original age.”

In a transformative move, Mi-Jin refuses to give up on her dreams and decides to change her life’s course. She adopts her late aunt Lim Sun’s name as an inspiration for her new self. Her aspirations lead her to pursue Jon under prosecutor Gee Ji-Ung (Jin-Hyuk), a man who finds himself drawn to Mi-Jin, often encountering her during the nighttime hours. Will he discover her hidden truth? This captivating K-drama can be watched on JTBC and Netflix every weekend.

Mr. Queen

Mr. Queen is a romantic comedy with a gender swap plot set in a drama series from South Korea in 2020. Starring Shin Hye-Sun and Kim Jung-Hyun as the main characters, it revolves around Jang Bong-Hwan, an esteemed chef who nearly meets his demise at the hands of an assassin. Instead, he finds himself unconscious in a swimming pool, only to awaken in the Joseon era, inhabiting the body of Queen Kim So-Yong. As this timid and vulnerable queen takes over, she starts acting rebelliously, shamelessly, and boisterously, causing upheaval within the kingdom.

In the Netflix series, the summary goes: “A skilled chef finds himself in the body of a 19th-century queen and must learn to maneuver through the royal court while searching for a means to return to his own time and life.” Choi Jin-Hyuk stars as the gifted chef.

Tunnel

2017’s “Tunnel” is a gripping drama starring Choi Jin-Hyuk, where I step into the shoes of the dedicated detective, Park Gwang-Ho, from 1986. As I delve into a chilling serial murder case, an unexpected leap through time lands me in the year 2017. Here, I meet the esteemed detective Kim Sun-Jae and we join forces to unravel the mystery. To further our investigation, we enlist the assistance of psychology professor Shin Jae-Yi.
