South Korea makes a lot of NIS-themed series and movies, but The Veil is arguably one of the best out there. It's a 12-episode spy drama that's full of plot twists, and is intriguing from the very first episode up to the last.

Note that The Veil is heavy on the narrative so it isn't as action-packed as the trailer suggests BUT when it's time for action, it's crunch time. All fight sequences really deliver - and they get pretty intense with a jacked Namkoong Min at the forefront.

9/10 would recommend to anyone who has a knack for crime thrillers.

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.

Nam Goong Min nailed it! As im watching it reminded me of John Wick movie. Really great drama.. You wont be disappointed watching this. Nam Goong Min deliver his character really well, he deserves awards.

I really enjoyed it thus far.

Story is intriguing enough, action is building somewhat slowly but not dragged out, rather in a realistic pace. Acting is good, lead actor especially so.

Without spoilers, I have to say the car chase in episode 1 was filmed very nicely, from a different than usual viewpoint, which definitely adds to cinematic experience.

The storyline is interesting , the way they put the plot onward and backward is good enough . The action also not bad though , Not much surprises but can make us curious on what happen next . The ploy on how the made the bad guy is also interesting at first we think maybe everything is about inside job / a mole , but turns out everything just about revenge . There's time when i think that maybe this is how we always said that so much of South Korea similar with US on how they spying on people . Also i give 8/10 stars for Min Hyuk on his acting and his body , is well built .i give je yi maybe aroun 7/10 star for her acting and beauty .
