The production team of MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "When the Phone Rings" unveiled a still from Yoo Yeon-seok, who plays the role of Baek Sa-eon, the youngest presidential spokesman. Baek Sa-eon, who is equipped with both family, appearance and ability and high synchronicity, raises expectations for Yoo Yeon-seok's work.

"When the Phone Rings" is a romance thriller about the story of a kidnapper's threatening phone call to a show window couple in their third year of political marriage. Baek Sa-eon, played by Yoo Yeon-seok, is a hostage negotiation expert and public broadcaster with brilliant qualifications and maintains a clean image through self-management. Baek Sa-eon, who has outstanding remarks, is a young political elite who dominates public opinion and gains high trust and support from the public.

In the stills released, Yoo Yeon-seok expresses not only the external part but also the character's cool-headed and determined personality as a spokesman for the presidential office, who is not shaken at any moment. In the midst of this, Baek Sa-eon's appearance of answering the phone with a serious expression stimulates curiosity. It raises questions about who Baek Sa-eon, wearing a tailgating suit, is talking to and what kind of conversation is going on.

"When the Phone Rings" will first air in November.
