"The Veil" is a Korean spy investigation. The story takes place when a top NIS field agent, who went missing a year ago, returns to the organization to find an internal traitor who dropped him into the abyss.

Park Ha-sun plays Seo Soo-yeon, the team leader of the Center for Information Integration. She's an elite agent with a secret. She showed off her lovely unexpected charm and at the same time, showed off her cool side with her charming eyes. Kim Ji-eun plays Han Ji-hyeok's partner, Yoo Jae-yi. She is also a promising field agent within the NIS. Her brave, confident and beautiful smile made the reading scene a pleasant atmosphere.

In addition, high-end actors such as Kim Byung-gi (Bang Yeong-chan), Lee Kyung-young (Lee In-hwan), Jang Young-nam (Do Jin-sook), and Kim Jong-tae (Kang Pil-ho) joined. They will be active as NIS agents.

On this day, director Kim Sung-yong expressed his special affection, saying, "I want this to be a site where when I wake up in the morning, I want to go to the scene quickly and I want to be with you even though the shooting is over".

Writer Park Seok-ho said, "I often feel discouraged because writing is done alone", and added, "I got strength from hearing that you are with me every now and then".

Lastly, Namkoong Min expressed his reasonable confidence, saying, "I had a clear feeling that our drama would do so well because I was with good actors".
