Abstract: An obscaured nulceus in Seyfert 2 galaxies have been revealed. It is predicted by the unified scheme of Seyfert galaxies. Although the nature of some seyfert 2 galaxies are well described by the model, a question is still remaining. It is whether the model can apply for all of Seyfert 2 galaxies. We select unbiased sample with the intensity of the forbidden line, [OIII]5007, which associates with AGN activity. We will check the existence of obscured nuclei. Bright [OIII] sample may have an bright nucleus. Our observation will resolve the open question why there are few bright Seyfert 2 galaxies.
