Park Seok Ho, the writer of MBC’s upcoming drama “The Veil,” has shared his thoughts on the acting of the three leads!

“The Veil” is a new blockbuster action drama starring Namgoong Min as Han Ji Hyuk, an elite field agent whose perfect record and skill at completing missions make him a legend at the NIS (National Intelligence Service). However, just when he seemed to have finally succeeded in driving an organized crime syndicate into a corner, Han Ji Hyuk unexpectedly winds up losing his memories in a horrific accident that leaves all his teammates dead. After going missing for a year, he makes a bold return to the organization to find the traitor who attempted to kill his entire team.

Expressing his complete confidence in Namgoong Min’s charisma and ability to portray the tormented lead, Park Seok Ho remarked, “Actor Namgoong Min has already made a flawless transformation into the main character, both externally and internally. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he has transcended his role and is taking charge of the entire drama.”

The writer also spoke highly of Park Ha Sun, who will be starring in the drama as Seo Soo Yeon, a team leader at the NIS’s Crime Information Center.

“Her passion for the drama and her role is incredible,” said Park Seok Ho. “Seo Soo Yeon is a character who is sunny but also dark, warm but also cold. It’s a role that is full of duality, and actress Park Ha Sun is portraying that duality through her outstanding interpretation of the character. I’m certain that she will show a new side of herself [in ‘The Veil’] that she hasn’t shown in her previous projects.”

Finally, Park Seok Ho praised the acting of relative newcomer Kim Ji Eun, who will be playing Han Ji Hyuk’s partner Yoo Je Yi.

“Even though she’s a rookie actress, her acting is stable and full of confidence,” he shared. “She’s a breath of fresh air that adds vitality to our drama, which could come off as heavy.”

The writer added, “Yoo Je Yi is a character who has every kind of potential within her, and actress Kim Ji Eun is bringing the character to life with her unreadable charms.”
