Ahead of Episode 9's broadcast on the 4th, "Chaebol X Detective 2" has released images showing the "Gangha Seo Violent Crimes Unit 1" facing a new case, heightening audience interest. The released stills vividly capture the chaotic atmosphere at an arts high school. A group of female students is shown reacting with shock and rising tension upon discovering something unexpected as they open the door to the dance studio.
