In the upcoming episode 9 of MBC’s Friday-Saturday drama “When The Phone Rings,” Hong Hee-joo (played by Chae Soo-bin) visits Baek Ui-yong (played by Yoo Seong-ju) and Shim Gyu-jin (played by Choo Sang-mi).
In the previous episode, Hee-joo and Baek Sa-eon (played by Yoo Yeon-seok) resolved their misunderstandings and confirmed their feelings for each other. However, the kidnapper (played by Park Jae-yoon) closed in on them, raising the tension.
Sa-eon, who had been chasing the kidnapper, received a message from fishing site manager Jeong Sang-hoon (played by Kim Jun-bae) saying, “He’s still alive” and rushed to the fishing spot.
However, by the time he arrived, it was already engulfed in flames, and Sa-eon lost consciousness while trying to save Sang-hoon. At the same time, Hee-joo learned a shocking secret from her step-sister Hong In-ah (played by Han Jae-i): Sa-eon was not from the Baek family.
Ahead of the 9th episode airing on December 27, new stills were released showing Hee-joo meeting with her in-laws, Ui-yong and Gyu-jin. Despite being family, the cold atmosphere between the three is intense and significant.
In the stills, Hee-joo visits her in-laws’ house in the middle of the night after Sa-eon goes missing and doesn’t return home. She urgently demands something from them. While they listen calmly to Hee-joo’s request, both Ui-yong and Gyu-jin cannot hide their surprise at her unusual behavior. After 3 years of marriage, what could be the reason behind Hee-joo suddenly visiting her in-laws? Her resolute expression hints at a tough decision, sparking curiosity.
Meanwhile, Hee-joo rushes to the hospital after hearing about Sa-eon’s accident. Devastated by his serious injuries, her eyes well up as she remembers how lonely he must have been. Gripping his hand tightly, Hee-joo prays desperately for him to regain consciousness. She makes a firm decision to protect him and immediately heads somewhere. What kind of decision did Hee-joo make for her husband? The story of the “Sa-Joo couple,” who had just confirmed their love and were dreaming of a happy future, now faces an uncertain future.
On the other hand, episode 9 of “When The Phone Rings” will be broadcast on December 27 at 9:50 PM (KST) on MBC.
