Cerebral Korean Crime Thriller “Nine Puzzles” Premieres May 21 Exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar

After a smash start to the year that saw Unmasked and Hyper Knife captivate K-drama audiences around the world, Itaewon Class star Kim Dami and Big Bet star Son Sukku are set to build on this success with their new cerebral crime thriller – Nine Puzzles debuting May 21, exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar.

The eleven-episode series stars Kim Dami and Son Sukku in a gripping thriller that will keep audiences guessing until the end

Set to premiere with six-episodes on May 21, Nine Puzzles follows Yoon Ena, a high school student who discovers the body of her murdered uncle next to a single puzzle piece. Uncertain of how she got to the scene of the crime and unable to answer any of the police’s questions, Ena quickly becomes the police’s prime suspect. A decade later, Ena, now a criminal profiler, will once again find herself caught in the middle of a series of murders, with each victim linked to a puzzle piece like the one from the night of her uncle’s murder.
