Nine Puzzles Week 2 Reactions: Fans Can’t Get Enough of the Visuals, the Acting and the Twisted Plot!

Nine Puzzles Week 2 Reactions: Nine Puzzles is now officially the talk of the town, and for good reason! The thriller series has garnered opinions, fan theories and speculations from all around the world, especially because it plays with its themes and constantly keeps changing the perpetrator and the victim from one episode to the next.

This week, we get three episodes, and Han-saem and I-na are on a rollercoaster as things pick up too much steam! As one more body drops and a puzzle piece from 10 years ago resurfaces, the team realises that this serial murder case has its roots in the past, even before Dong-hoon’s murder. As they dig deep, they are constantly brought back to Jung-ho’s involvement in the matter, but Han-saem, at first, refuses to believe that he could be involved.

However, the more they dig into Jung-ho’s life, the more they realise that this has something to do with his past in some capacity. They arrest him when they realise that he was the one who took the handkerchief from Do Yoon-su’s murder scene. Unfortunately, they don’t get anything concrete from him and eventually release him, hoping to tail him to the actual perpetrator’s home. Unfortunately, through this, they stumble upon another murder. Jung-ho, in order to stop the perpetrator from killing Kwon Sang-beom, ends up dying. Unfortunately, Sang-beom dies in the hospital later as well, resulting in another puzzle piece being delivered, but this time at the news station.

As fans swoon over the sweet character arcs of Han-saem and I-na and their shared chemistry, they also can’t get enough of the beautiful cinematography that makes every scene stand out from the rest. One fan hilariously pointed out, @kimddami – “not hansaem getting all soft after that trust me text only to get a murder suspect call about ena five minutes later i’m cacklinggg ????????????”

Viewers were also left for a loop in regards to whom to believe, as more and more people are starting to sound suspicious every second! The top pick seems to be the psychologist, but the truth is yet to be revealed.
