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.
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.

From 10 to an 8.
This was a great K Drama until the final episode.
I was hooked until episode 12 and I'm like what the heck happened? It was a complete turnaround. It did not make sense. I don't know what the production team was thinking. There are no spoilers here as I want to hear if other reviewers thought the same.
I don't want to spoil it, but my suggestion would be is to watch the first 11 episode and let it end there.
Don't bother watching episode 12 it would be a shame to say episode 12 was part of this amazing K drama. Whoever is on the production team that decided to greenlight episode 12 should be fired.

This was one that I had some issues with, but overall I wanted to go the distance. I wasn't as put off by the last episode, & as there are only 12 it was a much more endurable experience.
Wow, how much more can these rich families be dysfunctional? The dark secrets just kept being exposed & I was genuinely surprised by some twists in the plot. The kidnapper/sociopath did a good job at portraying a sense of dread. He did seem to elude the police for far too long.
The ML, Yoo Yeon-seok, & the FL, Chae Soo-bin, had reasonable enough interaction to develop a sense of a relationship. I don't know how his wife was kept secret as he was a well known celebrity who would be easy to follow.
The love triangle really didn't develop with the psychiatrist. The secondary love interests was a bit of an afterthought.
Yes, the bit in Argan at the end was a bit too much, but as in a lot of K dramas there is a period of separation..
