Disney+ has unveiled character posters and a character teaser for Nine Puzzles.

Nine Puzzles is a mystery thriller that follows Yun Yi Na (Kim Da Mi), a criminal profiler who was the sole witness of an unsolved case from ten years ago, and violent crimes Detective Han Saem (Son Suk Ku), who was the lead investigator at the time and continues to suspect her as the culprit. They delve into the secrets of a serial murder case that begins again with a mysterious puzzle piece.

Yi Na is depicted chasing clues to find the killer of her uncle, all while doubting herself after losing her memory of the incident due to the trauma. The text on her poster reads, "Doubt yourself. That's the only way you'll find the answer."Han Saem, a detective in the Violent Crimes Unit 2 at the Hangang Police Station, says, "For ten years, I've thought you were the prime suspect," heightening curiosity about how his suspicions of Yi Na will play into their joint investigation.Yang Jeong Ho (Kim Sung Kyun), the leader of Violent Crimes Unit 2, is featured with the text, "Are you sure you know everything about Yoon Yi Na?" — a quote that deepens Han Saem's suspicion toward her and further fuels the mystery surrounding the true culprit. Choi San (Hyun Bong Sik), the youngest member of the Violent Crimes Unit 2, humorously says, "Why do you keep calling me the youngest? I've aged too…"  The teaser captures the dynamics among the four main characters as they become entangled in the serial murder case that has resurfaced again with a mysterious puzzle piece.

Yi Na is shown witnessing her uncle's murder 10 years ago and losing her memory due to the trauma. She now works as a profiler and also becomes a witness to a new murder.

Next, Han Saem is shown with sharp, suspicious eyes, continuously doubting Yi Na while choosing to cooperate with her for the sake of solving the case. His mania and persistence in pursuing the killer are evident.

Yang Jung Ho, the leader of Hangang Police Station's Violent Crimes Unit 2, focuses on concrete evidence rather than mere suspicion, as he says, "That means there's no solid evidence."

Lastly, Choi San, the youngest member of the Violent Crimes Unit 2, brings humor to the tension-filled plot.

Nine Puzzles will be available exclusively on Disney+, with six episodes releasing on May 21, followed by three on May 28, and the final two on June 4, for a total of eleven episodes. Watch the teaser here.
