Yoo Yeon-seok and Chae Soo-bin, are set to intrigue viewers in the upcoming MBC Friday-Saturday drama “When The Phone Rings” (지금 거신 전화는), with two fascinating main posters just unveiled. The drama is set to premiere from 22nd November.
“When The Phone Rings” is a romantic thriller about a couple in an arranged marriage, whose seemingly perfect facade begins to crumble with the arrival of a mysterious threat. The story centres on Baek Sa-eon (Yoo Yeon-seok) and Hong Hee-joo (Chae Soo-bin), who share a cold, business-like relationship at home. But one day, a phone call shakes their distant arrangement, creating both suspicion and tension.
The posters reveal Sa-eon and Hee-joo together in the same space but with tension between them.
In the first poster, Sa-eon watches Hee-joo with a sharp gaze, while she deliberately looks away, their distance makes us wonder why is Hee-joo so uncomfortable around Sa-eon.
The second poster shows Sa-eon leaning against a wall with a poised confidence, while Hee-joo sits alone in the dark, emphasizing their contrasting emotions. The text on the posters, “I thought I knew you well” and “Maybe you’re not all that I know” perfectly captures the air of doubt surrounding the couple’s fragile connection.
“When The Phone Rings” is based on a popular Kakao Page web novel and written by Kim Ji-woon, known for Melancholia and Doctor John, with direction by Park Sang-woo, whose works include The Forbidden Marriage. Tensions between Yoo Yeon-seok’s and Chae Soo-bin’s characters, their emotional isolation and the chilling twist that brings them closer, make this drama quite anticipating.
“When The Phone Rings” premieres from November 22 at 9:50 PM (KST) on MBC, every Friday-Saturday.
