When The Phone Rings | Episode 9 REVEALED | Yoo Yeon Seok | Chae Soo Bin [ENG SUB]

In-Ah decides to reveal to Hee-Joo that Sa-On is not the real son of the Baek family, hoping to make Hee-Joo realize she is being deceived. Despite knowing that Hee-Joo pretended to be mute for her sake, In-Ah genuinely cares for her. As In-Ah observes Hee-Joo's growing feelings for Sa-On, she decides to help by drawing the reporter's attention to Sa-On, potentially exposing the Baek family's secret. In-Ah uncovered Sa-On's true identity not solely from the document she received in the past, it merely confirmed her suspicions. She was the first to notice the discrepancies in Sa-On's appearance compared to the Sa-On she knew, and she pointed this out to Jang-Ho. This revelation shocked Jang-Ho, who then sought to silence anyone who knew the truth. He orchestrated the accident that caused In-Ah to lose her hearing, forced Hee-Joo to feign muteness, and led to their brother's death. Chairman Hong eventually discovered Jang-Ho's role in the accident. Before the incident, In-Ah had already told Chairman Hong that Sa-On's appearance did not match the original Sa-On's, though he initially dismissed her concerns. Later, he confronted Jang-Ho with the fact that Sa-On wasn't the real Sa-On, which led Jang-Ho to beg Il-Kyung to conceal the truth and strike a deal that benefited Il-Kyung. When In-A showed Chairman Hong the document confirming Sa-On's identity, he was unsurprised, having already pieced together much of the truth. After Sang-Woo rescued Sa-On, Hee-Joo rushed to the hospital, deeply worried about Sa-On's condition. During this time, Sang-Woo learned of Hee-Joo and Sa-On's marriage. Sang-Woo is not the master, as he explained that Sa-On kept Hee-Joo's identity as his wife hidden to protect her. The master, on the other hand, sought to make Sa-On experience the pain of losing something precious. Meanwhile, Sang-Woo, who harbored feelings for Hee-Joo, wanted to protect her from Sa-On, whom he distrusted. Sang-Woo also searched for Jang-Ho's ring, but the master showed no interest in it, as their focus remained solely on Sa-On. Moreover, the master already knew about Hee-Joo and Sa-On's relationship through the real Sa-On. A mysterious figure wearing a suit and white sneakers appeared, possibly Sang-Woo, as he investigated the missing orphans. However, the real perpetrator was not Sang-Woo, but Doo-Jae, the master. Doo-Jae masterminded the events surrounding the real Sa-On. He eliminated Sang-Hoon after Sang-Woo left and also led Sa-On to discover a message left by the real Sa-On. Upon waking up and learning of Sang-Hoon's death, Sa-On was devastated. He felt as though his home was gone, leaving him unable to return to the man who had raised him. Realizing he had only Hee-Joo left, Sa-On feared she would reject him if she discovered the truth. Despite this, Hee-Joo accepted Sa-On as he was. Empathizing with the fear and imprisonment he had endured, which mirrored her own experiences. This is also why Sa-On can't sleep beside others as he is haunted by dreams of Jang-Ho drowning him. Fearing that Jang-Ho might do to him what he did to the real Sa-On. As Sa-On and Hee-Joo finally stood together, their future remained uncertain. Especially with Kyu-Jin continuing her efforts to protect her son, the real Sa-On.
