The Veil (2021)
7/10
Good action packed thriller series. Could've been better.
26 October 2021
The plot (not spoiler): This is an intriguing story of a NIS agent (Han Ji Hyuk) who loses his memory during a mission and returns back after a year.

The story is well paced, neither too fast nor too slow.

The only problem I faced, is that the writers keep adding characters which made me bit confused to remember all the names.

The action is on the point!

Its not an unique drama, the plot is quite common but its very well executed, it definitely leaves you wanting more at the end of each episode. The cliffhangers will make sit on the edge of the seat.

Nam Goong Min- Okay! So it's a one man show and i.e Nam Goong Min!

He is just astonishing, as always. His workout scenes are well directed, his muscles bulging and his skin glistening with sweat...ooooohhh!!! Not only action but his gaze also. He will rip you off just by his gaze and he looked so damn violent and wild in all his action scenes. But sometimes you will feel like he is a cold hearted assassin.

Kim Ji Eun- She supported well Nam Goong Min. Her character is cheerful and cute and she is a badass girl also. She has humanity and warmth which melts his senior's frozen heart whose humanity was on the verge of extinction.

Overall, the plot/script writing is little weak, it could have been better if they wouldn't have shown so many characters.

I wouldn't recommend this series to those who have low attention or those who watch dramas in fast forward because if you skip even for 10 secs.. boom!!!you have just missed an important character.

It's not everyone's cup of tea, but if you like a good mystery action packed drama, then this is worth checking out!

OST: Its worth adding to your playlist.

PS: Remember all the names.
