"A Man In A Veil" tells the story of Tae Poong, a man who after an accident lives with the mentality of a child, this happened when he thought he was saving Yoo Jung, his childhood friend and his first love, but in fact it was her sister Yoo Ra.

The sisters' family works for Tae Poong's family, but the way they both treat him is completely different. Even after Tae Poong's change, Yoo Jung has always treated him the same way. The only thing Yoo Ra feels is envy of Tae Poong's money. Yoo Ra accidentally ends up pregnant and then makes an evil scheme to deceive Tae Poong and his mother, saying that she is pregnant with his child. This hurts Yoo Jung's feelings a lot, who even though it doesn't show, liked Tae Poong as a man. Seo Jun is a rich man who only thinks about himself, he meets Yoo Jung and falls in love with her almost instantly and tries to do everything to make her fall in love with him too.

Even though Yoo Ra gets what she wants, she doesn't stop at that. She frames Tae Poong's mother for a crime, who ends up dying in jail. After his mother's death, Tae Poong goes through another trauma and recovers his mental abilities. In fact, he becomes a more intelligent person than normal and from that moment on, he begins his plan of revenge against everyone who destroyed his life.

Years pass, Yoo Jung has become a mother, she raises Yoo Ra's son as her own and continues to search for Tae Poong, who has now assumed a new identity: Min Hyuk. Even though he meets Yoo Jung again, he doesn't tell her the truth. Yoo Ra marries Seo Jun, but obviously the two don't have a happy life together.

Yoo Jung and Tae Poong are good on paper, but in reality there was a lack of development in the couple, in their relationship, everything ended up being very shallow. To be honest, I think Yoo Jung was a much better match for Seo Jun. Speaking of him, Seo Jun was the most wronged person in this drama, he ended up married to Yoo Ra, found out that his mother tried to kill his father's ex-girlfriend, fell in love with his half-sister and died. How is it possible for so much to happen to the same person?

Why did they need to kill Dong Ho?! I thought that his death would at least serve to make Yoo Jung seek revenge, but she only pretended to do so and in fact she only used Seo Jun's feelings and in the end, she did nothing. Also, about Yoo Jung being Ji Sook's daughter. Why was that necessary?! It didn't add anything important, especially since it was basically introduced at the end of the drama, it only served to make Seo Jun even more pathetic. Yoo Ra, who was supposed to be the villain of the story, simply disappeared in the last 20 episodes and only appeared occasionally, even though it all started with her. They shouldn't have lost the character's direction, the bitch only appeared to kill poor Seo Jun.

The drama had a lot of potential, but I don't really know what happened, the story got lost at a certain point and what could have been great ended up falling into the same old thing.
