Previously on “When the Phone Rings,” Baek Sa Eon—who was searching for the culprit threatening him—became suspicious of Ji Sang Woo, who suddenly re-entered Hong Hee Joo’s life. Meanwhile, the epilogue at the end of the second episode revealed that Baek Sa Eon was the one who had requested to marry Hong Hee Joo instead of her sister Hong In Na, piquing curiosity about his true feelings towards his wife.

In the upcoming third episode of the drama, Sa Eon stages a run-in with Hee Joo and Sang Woo while meeting with Na Yu Ri (Jang Gyuri). After pretending to coincidentally run into Hee Joo and Sang Woo at the restaurant where he knew they’d be dining, he smoothly joins them and proceeds to grill Sang Woo with a barrage of personal questions.

After Sa Eon startles Sang Woo with his interrogation, Hee Joo finally pulls her husband aside to speak to him about his demeanor. Sang Woo, who doesn’t know that Hee Joo is married, also expresses his discomfort with Sa Eon’s inexplicable behavior. Although the two men exchange business cards with polite smiles, the intense glares they are shooting at one another reveal just how much tension there is in the air.

Meanwhile, Yu Ri—who was initially excited to be suddenly meeting Sa Eon for a meal—notices something strange about Sa Eon, who is behaving in a way she’s never seen him act before. Will she figure out the truth about Sa Eon and Hee Joo’s secret relationship?
