The Number You Have Dialed

I completely agree with cherlockhome's review below.

The drama isn't finished yet, but I'm not willing to watch the last few episodes.

Apart from the idiotic way the female lead was written and the constant loop holes, the drama is 90% cringe fest. It might had been better if the lead actress matched the professional level of the lead actor, but it's still unbearable at times.

All these "passionate" or "sensual" moments they want to pass to the audience are an absolute disaster, as the script is childish and the chemistry between the leads is super forced.

Unfortunately, it's a common theme in KDramas lately, which is an indication they've either lost their sparkle or I've just become too old to relate to the content.

It would help if they stopped making these dramas to showcase the actors' beauty and endorsements and started paying attention to what really matters. The script and acting.

I did not expect much in a Kdrama like this when first reading the plot. The content is normally well but the chemistry and acting is too catchy and on the next level ! They potrayed the feelings, all doubts and hidden affection unbelievably soulful, especially the male. The intense in love charms the audience, a well-developed love story with Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin's perfect chemistry. I must say there are a few couples who fit their roles and their partners in such a passionate way from outward appearances to every gesture when they are together and these two are one of them. Worth the hype.

Storyline: Episodes 1 to 5 : superb. It hooks you in and can binge watch.

Episodes 6 to 10 : decent Episodes 11, 12 : worst. Can't imagine it is the same drama.

Why does it still get a 7 rating: Acting: top notch from everyone involved in all the episodes. Especially the leads. Their chemistry is off the charts.

Music: suits the drama perfectly. You can listen to it in loop. See the light song from the drama is one of the best ones that has come out recently.

Cinematography: extremely well done on how they depict different moods and settings Direction : Saves the weak Story line across the episodes.

At first, When the Phone Rings grabs your attention. The premise is intriguing, and the way the story unfolds in the beginning makes it hard to look away. The characters have great chemistry, and their interactions feel natural, which adds to the enjoyment. As the plot progresses, it builds up some good expectations, making you curious about how things will turn out.

But that's where the good things end.

The ending of this series is absolutely awful. It's not just bad-it's stupid and completely ridiculous! The way the story wraps up makes no sense, and it feels like the writers didn't even try to give us a satisfying conclusion. It's frustrating because the potential was there, but it's all wasted.

If you're thinking about watching this series, don't bother. Sure, the beginning is interesting, but the ending will leave you angry that you spent your time on it. Trust me, this is one of those shows you'll wish you skipped.

In short: Interesting start, good chemistry, terrible ending. Don't waste your time!

This was on par with other Korean dramas. Romance. Sweetness. Easy on the eyes. Enjoyable. Bingeable...right until the last few mins of episode 11. Then it all became full on nonsense!

Episode 12 was completely unnecessary.

So watch it. It's a nice series. But stop close to the end of episode 11. You'll know at which part. I won't spoil it for you.

After that it's really, really not worth your time.

Of course, as with a K-Dramas, don't expect things to make any logical sense even from the beginning. Just enjoy it for what it is. Lots of cute scenes and characters. Beautiful background score to make you feel the warm fuzzies. Haha.
