Namgoong Min sizzles
The Veil (2021)
The drama's plot felt so familiar. Like a mishmash of western spy action movies like Bourne identity, Die hard, Jack Reacher etc but still so uniquely Kdrama.

1. I waited for this the whole year and was not disappointed! Very thrilling, with action and lots of guessing of whodunit, but you almost need to watch closely because it can get confusing with so many characters.
2. Hands down Namgoong Min carried the show coz he was just amazing in this role as Han Ji Hyuk. I think he didnt need to bulk up that much since there were very few shirtless scenes but he looked so good in suits and his face is fuller. 😍
2. Very early on they introduced "Baek Mosa" so i thought he must be the main villain, but then the next 6 episodes went around in circles trying to implicate the other baddies in the NIS. I guess with the amount of villanous actors they casted, they wanted to complicate things and make people guess who is the worst of them. But i like that they finally teamed up to defeat the main baddie.
3. I love the partnership between Han Ji Hyuk and Yoo Je Yi. At first i thought Jeyi was too bland and green for Jihyuk but she proved to be very smart and complemented well with Jihyuk.
4. I loved the slow reveal of what really happened that night in Shenyang. There were so many twists and turns to get to that point when Jihyuk finally remembers everything. The reveal who killed his colleagues was something i expected since they kept hinting at it. The face off between Jihyuk and Mosa was typical Kdramatic with the daughter pleading to his father.
Dislikes
1. As mentioned above, the story went around in circles and overcomplicated a lot of things. But maybe if they sropped some of the twists we will not have material for 12 episodes so not a big deal.
2. Son Su Yeon was odd. She always felt out of place and they killed her off so early!!
Rating: 8.5/10
