What Is ‘When the Phone Rings’ About?

Baek Sa-eon (Yoo Yeon-seok) is a former television journalist turned political star on the rise.

With communication, honesty, trust, vulnerability, remorse, and a willingness to improve past mistakes.

Actions can speak louder than words, but that doesn’t negate the power and importance of communication.

Vengeance is best served multiple times by different people.
