When The Phone Rings

Hong Heeju is a sign language interpreter who has become mute due to severe depression. For three years of their arranged marriage, she and her husband never exchanged a single conversation. One day, her life takes a harrowing turn when she’s taken hostage. ‘Don’t hang up! This isn’t a phishing call…!’ However, her husband, who was even worse than a stranger, coldly disconnected the call. – “Call me when a body is found.” *** You $%#£! He’s such a jerk! Overwhelmed with anger, Heeju decides to threaten her husband anonymously. The problem is that he was a well-known spokesperson for the Blue House. – “Can’t you send threats on time?” “That…” – “Here I’m anxiously waiting for my blackmailer’s call.” “What do you…” – “Are you playing around with someone else besides me?” “…?” Wait, is this the same sociopath husband I knew? ——– TL/N: ‘Blue House’ was the official residence and office of the President of the Republic of Korea from 1948-2022.
