Cuando el teléfono suena

I truly cannot emphasize enough on how much this show disappointed me!

I got so excited by the first episode. And even through half of second episode. But after that, it became a magnificent free fall!

Usually Korean shows start well but they decline after 7-8 episodes. But the decline happened very soon for this one.

Something that could have been a great serious thriller, became a joke. A childish silly rom com.

The main characters are unbelievable. Their dialogues on the phone are ridiculous and meaningless. Male lead's change of behavior is so drastic and is unbelievable and sometimes annoyingly childish to the audience. You would ask yourselves:" how could someone so smart be so stupid?"

This show has all kinds of twists which you see regularly on Korean shows, but all these twists look and sound comical in this show. They don't affect you the way they should.

They only thing that hooked me was that the leads had a good chemistry(kind of), specially male lead who could show his emotions pretty well.

That is all.

This was on par with other Korean dramas. Romance. Sweetness. Easy on the eyes. Enjoyable. Bingeable...right until the last few mins of episode 11. Then it all became full on nonsense!

Episode 12 was completely unnecessary.

So watch it. It's a nice series. But stop close to the end of episode 11. You'll know at which part. I won't spoil it for you.

After that it's really, really not worth your time.

Of course, as with a K-Dramas, don't expect things to make any logical sense even from the beginning. Just enjoy it for what it is. Lots of cute scenes and characters. Beautiful background score to make you feel the warm fuzzies. Haha.

Storyline: Episodes 1 to 5 : superb. It hooks you in and can binge watch.

Episodes 6 to 10 : decent Episodes 11, 12 : worst. Can't imagine it is the same drama.

Why does it still get a 7 rating: Acting: top notch from everyone involved in all the episodes. Especially the leads. Their chemistry is off the charts.

Music: suits the drama perfectly. You can listen to it in loop. See the light song from the drama is one of the best ones that has come out recently.

Cinematography: extremely well done on how they depict different moods and settings Direction : Saves the weak Story line across the episodes.

At first, When the Phone Rings grabs your attention. The premise is intriguing, and the way the story unfolds in the beginning makes it hard to look away. The characters have great chemistry, and their interactions feel natural, which adds to the enjoyment. As the plot progresses, it builds up some good expectations, making you curious about how things will turn out.

But that's where the good things end.

The ending of this series is absolutely awful. It's not just bad-it's stupid and completely ridiculous! The way the story wraps up makes no sense, and it feels like the writers didn't even try to give us a satisfying conclusion. It's frustrating because the potential was there, but it's all wasted.

If you're thinking about watching this series, don't bother. Sure, the beginning is interesting, but the ending will leave you angry that you spent your time on it. Trust me, this is one of those shows you'll wish you skipped.

In short: Interesting start, good chemistry, terrible ending. Don't waste your time!

This show hooked me from the beginning. The actors were amazing. I see some gave it a bad rating for the ending but the show as a whole was well done. The ending was rushed but still a great watch. It was a romantic thriller which is exactly what is was supposed to be. Loved the music and the escape. It's not a serious drama but a fun one. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a romance like a romance novel. The characters are beautiful and sexy. The plot is creative and not your typical kdrama which I like. It's not my favorite kdrama but certainly a very entertaining one. It's worth the watch if you are into that genre.
