Disney+ Unveils Teaser for ‘Nine Puzzle’: A Stylish Psychological Mystery Thriller
Disney+ has officially released the teaser trailer for its upcoming Korean original thriller series, Nine Puzzle, signaling the arrival of a fresh and meticulously crafted mystery drama. Directed by Yoon Jong-bin, the series stars Kim Da-mi as ‘Ina,’ a profiler with a dark past, and Son Suk-ku as ‘Han Saem,’ a dedicated detective who never stopped suspecting her.
Nine Puzzle follows Ina, the only witness of a decade-old unsolved murder and now a professional profiler. Ten years ago, she discovered a mysterious puzzle piece left behind at the scene of her uncle’s brutal killing. In the present day, a string of new serial murders echoes that same ominous clue, pulling Ina back into the past she tried to escape. As she investigates the re-emergence of the killings, Han Saem remains convinced that Ina isn’t telling the whole truth.
The teaser opens with a haunting flashback as a rain-soaked high school student, Ina, stumbles upon the symbolic puzzle piece—her eyes locked in fear and determination. The melancholic yet eerie piano soundtrack sets the tone for a sophisticated thriller full of twists, emotional depth, and psychological tension reminiscent of top-tier Nordic noir.
Viewers get a glimpse of Ina’s transformation from a traumatized teenager into a cold and calculating profiler. Her return to the crime scene and her connection to the new murders bring her into conflict once again with Han Saem, as chilling memories and buried truths rise to the surface.
Nine Puzzle premieres exclusively on Disney+ starting May 21, with 11 intense episodes that promise a poignant journey through memory, trauma, and justice. For fans of high-stakes mysteries and Korean psychological dramas, this is one not to miss.
