Disney+ recently announced that “Nine Puzzles” has become the most‑viewed Korean title on the platform worldwide and across APAC in 2025*.
First released on May 21, “Nine Puzzles” follows Yoon E‑na, a high‑school student who discovers her uncle’s body beside a single puzzle piece. Unable to explain how she arrived at the scene, E‑na becomes the police’s prime suspect. A decade later, now a criminal profiler, she is drawn into a new string of murders — each victim linked to a puzzle piece identical to the one found the night her uncle died.
The series stars Kim Da‑mi (“Itaewon Class,” “Our Beloved Summer”) as murder suspect‑turned‑profiler Yoon E‑na; Son Suk‑ku (“Big Bet,” “D.P.”) as tenacious Detective Kim Han‑saem; Kim Sung‑kyun (“Moving,” “The Fiery Priest”) as Police Captain Yang Jung‑ho; and Hyun Bong‑sik (“When Life Gives You Tangerines,” “Gangnam B‑Side”) as Junior Detective Choi San. “Nine Puzzles” is directed by Yoon Jong‑bin (“Narco Saints,” “The Spy Gone North”) and written by Lee Eun‑mi (“Tunnel,” “Navillera”).
“Nine Puzzles,” a Korean original, is part of Disney+’s 2025 Korea slate. Earlier this year, viewers were engrossed in investigative thriller “Unmasked,” then captivated by medical thriller “Hyper Knife.” Coming up are “Low Life,” a treasure‑hunting adventure starring Ryu Seung‑ryong; “Tempest,” an international conspiracy thriller featuring Gianna Jun, Gang Dong‑won, John Cho, and Michael Gaston; and many more.
Stream the first nine episodes of “Nine Puzzles” now, exclusively on Disney+.
*Since its launch on May 21.
