Netflix announced on the 20th that it will release the movie "Call" on the 27th of next month. The film's theatrical release was canceled last March due to the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). After searching for an appropriate time until recently, Netflix decided to release it directly on its platform as the situation did not improve. It is a mystery thriller depicting two women from different time periods connected by a single phone call. The story portrays the madness that unfolds as they change each other's destinies. The cast includes Park Shin-hye, Jeon Jong-seo, Kim Sung-ryung, Lee El, Park Ho-san, Oh Jung-se, and Lee Dong-hwi, with director Lee Chung-hyun, who gained attention for the short film "Body Price," at the helm. The production was handled by Yong Film, known for "Believer," "Luck-Key," and "The Handmaiden." A representative stated, "In an era where there are diverse ways to deliver good stories, we are excited to introduce 'Call' to many viewers."
