When the Phone Rings is the latest Korean drama produced by MBC, ahead of its release the production team has leaked the character that will be played by Chae Soo Bin. The Korean drama When The Phone Rings is an adaptation of a web novel, which tells the romance of a couple who married for convenience when they receive a threatening phone call.

In this drama, Chae Soo Bin plays Hong Hee Joo, the wife of Baek Sa Eon (Yoo Yeon Seok), who lost her ability to speak after an accident as a child. In her arranged marriage with Sa Eon, Hee Joo does the bare minimum to keep up appearances and has no expectations or hopes for her marriage. 

Living in a shallow marriage, Hee Joo's world is shaken up when she is kidnapped by a mysterious figure.  Ironically, this traumatic event prompts her to rethink her stagnant life and make a change. 

The photos, released via MBC's Instagram @mbcdrama_now, show various sides of Hong Hee Joo, namely as a skilled sign language interpreter, the wife of the presidential spokesperson, and the stepdaughter of a media mogul.

The photo shows Hee Joo, sitting in a news studio, neatly dressed and focused on her work as an interpreter. She looks calm and collected, conveying a sense of stability in her role. In another photo, she looks vulnerable, evoking a protective instinct in the viewer. 

Despite wearing a luxurious wool jacket and an elegant black dress, her facial expression is not bright. With a worried or slightly frowning expression directed at someone, her attitude arouses curiosity about Hong Hee Joo's story. 

There is great interest in how Chae Soo Bin will express the emotions of Hong Hee Joo, a real-life mermaid who works as a sign language interpreter despite being mute. Viewers are eager to see how the actress will add her unique touch to the character, conveying emotions through her eyes, expressions and actions, rather than words. 

When the Phone Rings is Chae Soo Bin's comeback drama after a two-year hiatus, after starring in the dramas The Fabulous and Rookie Cops. Meanwhile, in 2024 she will return to star in a big screen film, titled Hijack 1971. Meanwhile, When the Phone Rings is rumored to air in November 2024.
