Actors Kim Dami, Son Seok-gu, and Yoon Jong-bin introduced the new original series 'Nine Puzzle' (played by Lee Eun-mi, directed by Yoon Jong-bin) at the 「Disney Content Showcase 2024」 held at the Sands Expo & Convention Center in Singapore on the 21st. 'Nine Puzzle' is a mystery thriller in which a decade ago, the only witness and incumbent profiler 'Ina' and a powerful team detective 'Hansam', who suspects him to the end, unravel the secrets of a series of murders that began again with a mysterious puzzle piece.
Kim Da-mi, who plays the main character, tried to create profiling in the investigation process like ". "I think I took it while thinking about how and how to express those points because I'm a child with a lot of inner things on what point or in what scene I can show my soft side of myself."
Director Yoon Jong-bin commented on the difficulty of making a drama after 'Suri-nam' and "I won't do it again." declared. This time he was trying not to do it because he was really physically and mentally struggling. When I was about to make a movie with my next work, I was offered a script called 'Nine Puzzle'. I didn't think I would do this work before I read the script at first. At the monitor level, a close friend asked me to read it, so I watched it, but the script was very immersive, and the story was unpredictable throughout the entire time I read the script. It's about chasing a serial killer, but even I got it wrong again and again, saying, `I think this person is the culprit.' When I saw why this happened, I thought 'This makes sense' It seems that the characters of Yoon Na-na and Kim Han-sam, the two main characters in the play, were unique. There were also very unique characters that were not seen in existing thrillers and criminal films, and I started to think about them. If I refuse this piece because I'm wondering if I should do it or not, I'll probably do it again. This is the only work I did that I didn't write a script, and I don't think I'll write investigations, and if I did, the heroine would be the main, but I didn't think I would use the heroine as the main. But at first, I wanted to direct only one episode, but I ended up doing it all."

On the other hand, Son Seok-gu seems to have failed to manage himself. Son Seok-gu proudly mentioned that he couldn't manage his weight, saying, `What comes to my mind is that I gain weight right away when I eat because I'm 40 years old, I have to maintain the same weight during the filming period, but I gained a lot of weight. Due to special measures taken by the on-site production department, it has been turned into a healthy snack for refreshments. Please pay attention to the fact that if you see it in the middle, you will gain weight and come back."
