The wait is finally over for fans of When The Phone Rings! MBC has confirmed that episodes 5 and 6 of the thrilling Kdrama, starring Yoo Yeon-Seok and Chae Soo-Bin, will air as scheduled this week. The popular series, available on Netflix, left its viewers disappointed last week due to an unexpected programming delay caused by South Korea's political turmoil surrounding the martial law controversy.

The show’s creators have now reassured fans with a revised schedule. Episodes 5 and 6 will air 10 minutes earlier than usual at 9:40 PM KST (6:10 PM IST) on Friday and Saturday, December 13 and 14. To make up for the missed episodes, the production team has released an exciting collection of behind-the-scenes (BTS) photos, along with a Christmas Card event that has fans buzzing with excitement. The Kdrama is expected to be available on Netflix soon after the broadcast in South Korea.

When The Phone Rings has captivated audiences with its unique storyline. It follows a couple in a contract marriage for three years, living separate lives without interference. However, their quiet arrangement takes a dark turn when the husband receives a threatening phone call claiming that his wife has been kidnapped.This shocking twist has kept fans eagerly waiting to uncover the mystery in the episodes ahead. 

When The Phone Rings: What Has Happened So Far?

The story begins with Paik Sa Eon and Hong Hee Joo, a married couple living in a quiet detachment. They avoid meaningful interactions, never share meals, and present a façade of a perfect marriage to the outside world. However, their fragile relationship takes an unexpected turn when Hee Joo is kidnapped, and Paik Sa Eon receives a ransom call demanding money, which he chooses to ignore.

The situation becomes even more shocking when it’s revealed that the ransom call was orchestrated by Hee Joo herself. Using a voice-altering device, she attempts to extort 2 billion won from her own husband. The truth behind her actions is equally startling—Hee Joo had pretended to be mute her entire life, a ruse imposed by her mother as a survival strategy within their family.
