Disney+, the global streaming giant renowned for its groundbreaking storytelling, has ignited excitement with exclusive behind-the-scenes stills from its original series ‘Nine Puzzle’. The drama, hailed for its innovative plot and electric character dynamics, continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

‘Nine Puzzle’ is a gripping crime-thriller, following profiler Jo I-na (Kim Da-mi)—the only witness to an unsolved case from a decade ago—and detective Han Sam (Son Suk-ku), who suspects her as a potential culprit. Together, they try to unravel a string of new serial murders marked by mysterious puzzle pieces, all while navigating trust, suspicion, and high-stakes mind games.

The newly released stills highlight the fiercely dedicated performances and vibrant chemistry on set. Kim Da-mi and Son Suk-ku can be seen meticulously monitoring scenes, their focus mirroring the tense process of decoding the puzzle-like crimes within the show. Their off-camera collaboration speaks volumes about their commitment to making each moment pulse with authenticity.

Other cast members—including Kim Sung Kyun and Hyun Bong-sik as part of the close-knit Han River Police Violent Crimes Unit—showcase an infectious camaraderie both on and off the screen. The photos capture an atmosphere of warmth and laughter, contrasting with the high-stakes narrative and amplifying the show’s magnetic ensemble.

Of special note are the playful antics between Son Suk-ku and Hyun Bong-sik. Although their characters often butt heads in the story, their friendship shines through behind the camera, highlighting another layer of charm that viewers and fans are obsessing over.

The series has drawn rave reviews since the release of episodes 1-6. Viewers praise director Yoon Jong-bin for his stylish vision and the show’s maze-like suspense, describing ‘Nine Puzzle’ as a truly immersive whodunit with standout characters. Reactions like “Addictive and clever—worth every bit of anticipation,” and “Impossible to guess the culprit—everyone’s a suspect!” have taken over social media and fan communities alike.

With hype building and only a few episodes left (episodes 7-9 launch May 28, and episodes 10-11 on June 4), fans are anxiously waiting to see how Jo I-na, Han Sam, and the rest of the cast piece together the remaining mysteries. Binge all 11 episodes exclusively on Disney+—but beware: you might lose sleep wondering, ‘Who’s really behind the puzzle?’
