Nine Puzzles is a Korean crime-mystery thriller released on Disney+ in 2025, which became the platform's most-watched Korean title of the year. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Yoon Jong-bin in a notable move into series television, the show is a twisty, atmospheric hunt for a serial killer built around a chilling signature.
Kim Da-mi stars as Yun-i, a gifted criminal profiler who, years earlier, was the prime suspect in the shocking murder of her uncle — a case that left her an outsider haunted by suspicion. When a new string of killings begins, each crime scene marked with a piece of a puzzle, she is pulled back in alongside a wary detective played by Son Suk-ku, and the scattered pieces slowly point toward her own buried past.
Praised for its moody visuals, its intricate plotting, and the tense dynamic between its two leads, Nine Puzzles helped reinvigorate Disney+'s Korean slate and was a critical and popular success. Its deliberate, clue-by-clue construction rewards viewers piecing the mystery together alongside its heroine. It is streaming on Disney+.
