Quando o Telefone Toca (2024)

WATTPAD MEETS K-DRAMA

This k-drama is only two episodes in and I am already HOOKED!! It has all my favorite tropes: arranged marriage, she fell first he fell harder, cold male lead who secretly cares for the female lead, etc. The acting and the chemistry between Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin is so good! I am living for the tension and Baek Sa Eon's possessiveness/protectiveness! AND THE PLOT TWISTS!? SO GOOD!! It is also a plot that I have never seen before, especially in a k-drama. Overall, such a good k-drama that has me hooked since episode one!

*Will update my review once finished!

oooh yeah... yes!... common now that sounds PROMISING! :D

So I was just bored today, started this drama without any expectations and to my surprise I watched the first two episodes without even blinking!! No idea how the time went by but one thing was clear, it felt as if I myself am Hong Hui Ju hahaha.. It was so intense and yet romantic, I don't even know how to describe it. I'm a big fan of such thrilling unrequited love series!! Looks like the ML is in love with the FL way before she even knew him..
I really loved how they could keep the romantic vibes on and still make it suspenseful! Has a lot of potential to be one of the best in 2024's!

This has me hooked with the first episode

I came across this series via a TikTok and it had me wanting more and I couldn’t stop … except I caught up and now must wait for the next episode.
I love these characters and the episodes just give us more bread crumbs for the story.
I really really hope this all works out and it doesn’t loose its appeal after 3-5 episodes.
but I do have a good feeling about it.

the story follows a government official who comes from a very esteemed family. He is forced to marry into a media tycoon family.
he agrees but makes a couple of conditions for his new wife. she can’t ask for a divorce, especially during a election year and no one must know she is his wife. if she breaks any of these rules … she owes him 2 billon won.

The wife he agrees to marry has selective mutism. she works as a sign interpreter for a news agency.

one night her car is hacked and she os kidnapped. the kidnapped tells her husband, he doesn’t believe the kidnapped has his wife and tells him not to call again. if he does he better have killed her.

what comes next is a battle of cat and mouse …. it will have you hooked!!!

i love it! just love it!

This story has enemies to lovers, he falls first and harder, contract marriage, childhood connection and what not!

PLOT:
Baek Sa Eon, Korea’s youngest presidential spokesman, and Hong Hui Ju, a sign language interpreter with mutism, have spent three years in a cold, convenient marriage. But when Hui Ju is kidnapped, their distant relationship takes an unexpected turn, forcing them to confront buried emotions.

REAL PLOT: YOO YEON SEOK!!!!! He serves through out the episodes. OMG how i wish to marry someone like him!


You NEED to watch this—it’s a masterpiece! The FL thinks the ML hates her and isn’t happy with their relationship, but plot twist: he’s been in love with her since they were kids and has been secretly protecting her all along. Her family is the worst, constantly using her, but he’s always there, defending her and loving her in ways she doesn’t even notice. I devoured every second of this, NO CAP. Stop wasting time—go watch it already!

"Same Old Love After Marriage Troupe with a Spicy Twist

When the Phone Rings' tells the intriguing story of a presidential spokesperson and a sign language interpreter who enter into an arranged marriage of convenience. Three years into their marriage, things are far from normal; their relationship is distant and strained, with him refusing to publicly acknowledge her as his wife.

The plot takes an exciting turn when she gets kidnapped. At first, he brushes off the call about her kidnapping as a prank, but she manages to escape and takes the kidnapper's phone with her. With this phone, she starts making threatening calls to him about her life, adding a thrilling twist to the narrative.

The show gives off strong Wattpad vibes—there's something about it that feels like a captivating story I might have read on that platform. Even though I've only seen two episodes, I rarely write reviews this early, but I felt compelled to share my thoughts because the start has been fantastic. The storyline is engaging, and I can't wait to see how it unfolds.

The casting is spot on, the acting is amazing, and the direction is brilliant. I'm hooked and eagerly awaiting more episodes. I’ll be updating my review weekly, so fingers crossed it continues to deliver!"

Classic and seductive.

Uptated every week !!!!!!!



I don't want to rush into expressing my enthusiasm, but I love stories of love and hate, and the first episode was really great. So, I'm saying welcome!!!

This series has given us everything we want as a classic K-drama in the romantic thriller genre. So far, with just two episodes, it's been quite satisfying.

Who doesn't love a contract marriage storyline? I guess we'll never get tired of it. It's potentially very exciting and intriguing.

The chemistry between the couple is definitely intense.

I'm eagerly looking forward to the flirting period.

I'll definitely continue watching!

Comments on Episodes 3 and 4:

The series continued with the same excitement and intrigue as the episodes released in the first week. Since it will last for 12 episodes, I think they need to move the plot along a bit faster, and I expect we’ll see more detailed events next week.

This week, we learned more about the backgrounds of our couple. Both of them have traumas influencing their behavior (of course, it's a must-have in K-dramas). The source of these traumas stems from their bad parents (yes, here we go again).

In a way, both are trying to protect their lives, but they are unaware of each other’s struggles. I believe that in this episode, some of the emotions they’ve been hiding came to light, even if just a little.

Baek Sa-eon’s feelings are clear, but for some reasons, he is not open with Hong Hee-joo. I think he feels guilty about forcing her to stay by his side, which is why he pulls back. He believes his wife hates him, but he protects her in his own way. In the coming weeks, we’ll see the reasons behind it more clearly.

Hong Hee-joo believes she is just a backup and is definitely confused about her feelings for her husband. She has other pressing issues to think about, and she’s focusing more on those. However, she will have the chance to reflect on her feelings in the upcoming episodes because she can no longer deny what her husband and his father have done for her.

She even confessed that he is her husband to protect him, omooo!!! She has now proven to him that she is not alone.

I can't wait to see the scenes of this couple getting to know each other and flirting. I hope they give us plenty of those moments.

I’m eagerly looking forward to the next episodes!
