Abstract: We investigate the internal structure of the newly observed charm-strange meson $D_{s1}(2933)^{+}$, which was reported by the LHCb Collaboration in $B^{0}\to D^{+}D^{-}K^{+}π^{-}$, in the quark model by treating it as the $2P_{1}$ state of the $c\bar{s}$ system. The coupled-channel corrections to the ${}^{1}P_1$--${}^{3}P_1$ mass matrix are evaluated through the two-point self-energy loops involving the $DK^{*}$, $D^{*}K$, $D^{*}K^{*}$, $D_{s}ϕ$, $D_{s}^{*}ϕ$ and $D_{s}^{*}η$ intermediate channels. Requiring the corrected eigenvalue to reproduce the measured mass yields a cutoff scale of about $0.82~\mathrm{GeV}$, a $2P_{1}^{\prime}$ partner state at $3012~\mathrm{MeV}$, and a mixing angle of $-12.9^{\circ}$ that deviates significantly from the heavy-quark ideal-mixing angle. Moreover, the predicted three-body branching ratio fraction $R_{\text{th}}=1.98$ for $D_{s1}(2933)\to D^{+}K^{+}π^{-}$ via the $DK^{*}$ and $D_{2}^{*}K$ intermediate states is consistent with the experimental value $R_{\text{exp}}=1.27^{+1.29}_{-0.95}$ within uncertainties. These results support the assignment of $D_{s1}(2933)$ as the $2P_{1}$ excited state of the $c\bar{s}$ system with final state interactions.
