Why Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin’s ‘When the Phone Rings’ Left Gong Yoo’s ‘The Trunk’ Behind?

When The Phone Rings' story explores the evolving relationship between a cold husband and his mute wife, which takes an unexpected turn after a mysterious phone call. The show portrays love in a subtle yet heartfelt way, capturing the delicate push-and-pull dynamic between the couple. Yoo Yeon Seok’s character, the husband, isn’t one to express his emotions openly, but his quiet care for his wife speaks volumes—though he hates to admit it.
