Why don’t the Main leads use text messages instead?Because "When the Phone Dings" doesn't sound as thrilling.
What do you means? If "rings" not thrill you, how could "text message" be more thrilling LOL
Ok, I'm just kidding. The real reason main leads "rings" instead of "text message" is because what already stated under the summary of plot of this drama: ~ Adapted from the web novel “The Number You Have Dialed" by Geon Eomul Nyeo~
This drama adapted from the webnovel and in the novel, the main leads "rings" not "text message" so this drama just follow that.
They both from KINGKONG by STARSHIP aka kkbyss. recommend other drama with both of main leads comes from the same agency: Law School (Kim Bum x Ryu Hyeyoung). their chemistry is soo good too!
this is a co production of kakao (their agency's parent company) and cj enm's subsidiaries; baram pictures and bon factory
As SK descends into martial law while the economy collapses, maybe a royal prince & an heiress are exactly what…
Every countries in the world are in chaos because of inflation, economic collapse and some countries ere in war, ex: Rusia/Ukraine, Palestine/Israel, Syria.
But why South Korea descends into civil war though? Who with who? I know about their recent political event, martial law since I read them on X but civil war? Maybe there will be some demonstration, protest, some civilian vs military force but I don't think they will escalate into civil war though.
Does anyone know if they have already finished the shooting? Is everything already done? I pray for a satisfying…
I found some posts about wrap-up party of this drama on X after searching about more info about this drama on media social because I'm addicted err I means, I'm curious ^_^
why are yall discussing the martial law on this dramas page tho??😭😭how is it even related
Because of this: When The Phone Rings is an ongoing South Korean television series written by Kim Ji-woon, co-directed by Park Sang-woo and Wi Deuk-gyu, and starring Yoo Yeon-seok, Chae Soo-bin, Heo Nam-joon [ko], and Jang Gyu-ri. 《It premiered on MBC TV on November 22, 2024, and airs every Friday and Saturday at 21:50 (KST). 》 It is also available for streaming on Netflix in selected regions.
Some info about national television network in South Korea: In South Korea, there are a number of national television networks, the three largest of which are KBS, MBC, and SBS. Most of the major television studios are located on Yeouido and Sangam-dong, Seoul. South Korea became the fourth adopter in Asia when television broadcasting began on 12 May 1956 with the opening of HLKZ-TV, a commercially operated television station. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_in_South_Korea
Some info about MBC: Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation is one of the leading South Korean television and radio broadcasters. Munhwa is the Sino-Korean word for "culture". Its flagship terrestrial television station MBC TV broadcasts as channel 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munhwa_Broadcasting_Corporation
As the international audiences, we need to remember that if there is any important political event happen in South Korea, MBC TV may postphone the airing date because they will air some news, discussion or whatever and Netflix couldn't air any episode either because they follow the airing schedule set by MBC TV.
Erm what is the problem? This drama did some mistake for the scene of hand sign language?
To be honest, I never expected 100% accuracy when watching Korean drama especially melodrama romance genre LOL
The main formula of this drama is just the old cliche, cold but tsundare main male lead fallen in love with pitiful but sweet main female lead. If you expected 100% accuracy, sorry, but this is not the drama you should watch.
Hope there won't be any problem when they airing this drama next episodes in the future.
#YooYeonSeok and #ChaeSooBin's MBC drama #WhenThePhoneRings production team apologized for a controversial first-episode scene mocking sign language.
Viewers and advocacy groups, including a university club, called it disrespectful and discriminatory.
Anyway, since some people including from university complained, that's means this drama successfully gaining people interest even it national tv rating is just so so right? Maybe they not watching it on tv but website like us international audiences.
These first four episodes have been great. Now, at the end of the last episode, we reached an important point.…
But it's already have the melodrama feel from the beginning. How could a romance story of cold tsundare main male lead fallen in love with pitiful sweet main female lead in arranged marriage relationship not be a melodrama in Korean drama world LOL
Yes totally! It's undeniable LOL. I started watch Korean dramas since Autumn Tale in 2000 with Song Seun Hyun & Song Hye Kyo as main couple. https://kisskh.at/255-autumn-tale
The main attraction of this type of drama whether Korean drama, Japanese drama, Chinese drama, Taiwanese drama, Thailand drama, are the guilty pleasure of chemistry between cold tsundare main male lead fallen on love with sweet main female lead. You can find this formula in popular older Korean dramas like: You're Beautiful Boys Over Flower Mischievous Kiss
Something about the intense chemistry between these 2 is just mesmerizing, even if it’s built on misunderstandings…
I believe majority of it is because matured actor like Yoo Yeon Seok with his micro expression as Baek Sae On and his smoldering stare to actress Chae Soo Bin.
It will feel different if stiff and expressionless actor did this and said all the totally wattpad dialogue like these: "Take it of, it doesn't belong to you. You are only a stand-in", "Will you take it off or should I?", "Do think I will do something to you? Dream on!"
They don't air kiss scene in that drama.
Bohoo, I'm sad.
Main couple is cute though.
It look true.
Anyway thank you for telling me.
If it is true, it is quite funny but I also pity the staff LOL
An account on X mentioned, she/he get private message from MBC staff that asked her/him to delete the post that accidently posted by MBC official account on X.

To be honest, I never expected 100% accuracy when watching Korean drama especially melodrama romance genre LOL
The main formula of this drama is just the old cliche, cold but tsundare main male lead fallen in love with pitiful but sweet main female lead.
If you expected 100% accuracy, sorry, but this is not the drama you should watch.
Hope there won't be any problem when they airing this drama next episodes in the future.

How could a romance story of cold tsundare main male lead fallen in love with pitiful sweet main female lead in arranged marriage relationship not be a melodrama in Korean drama world LOL
I started watch Korean dramas since Autumn Tale in 2000 with Song Seun Hyun & Song Hye Kyo as main couple.
https://kisskh.at/255-autumn-tale
The main attraction of this type of drama whether Korean drama, Japanese drama, Chinese drama, Taiwanese drama, Thailand drama, are the guilty pleasure of chemistry between cold tsundare main male lead fallen on love with sweet main female lead.
You can find this formula in popular older Korean dramas like:
You're Beautiful
Boys Over Flower
Mischievous Kiss
It will feel different if stiff and expressionless actor did this and said all the totally wattpad dialogue like these:
"Take it of, it doesn't belong to you. You are only a stand-in",
"Will you take it off or should I?",
"Do think I will do something to you? Dream on!"
If a child gushing over Baek Sae On, I will be worried even it's understandable for gushing over Yoo Yeon Seok LOL
