Iris (2009) drama trailer

English subbed trailer of “Iris”, one of the most anticipated Korean dramas of the year. The drama is said to base on 1998 blockbuster film “Swiri”, but I couldn’t see much resemblance beside the spy-action background.

Regardless, with a strong leading cast of Lee Byung-hun, Kim Tae-hee, Jung Jun-ho, Kim Seung-woo, Kim So-yeon and Big Bang’s T.O.P… the drama shows plenty of promises; and the teaser probably managed to reinforce the hype.

Felt sorry for Kim Tae-hee (beautiful lady with long hair) though; she’s trying so hard to prove herself as a good actress and not just with beautiful face; but yet again her role seems pretty flat and predictable.

On contrary co-actress Kim So-yeon has left a stronger impression with her character… could be interesting if the actresses are taking opposite roles instead.

    Swiri was a really good movie. I haven’t seen that movie in forever. Is there a difference between Shiri and Swiri? It was spelled with a “h” when I saw it.

    the trailer is coooooool. i agree with you on kim tae hee, she is not a bad actress but she needs better roles, maybe its a manager’s fault, but she needs something new, not just her trademark teardrops from her beautiful eyes.

    Let me modify. Kim-so-yeon’s acting is not good as other casts. Her acting is monotone. She has the gloomy face throughout drama. Kim So-yeon fails to impress with her character.
    Kim Tae Hee’s acting is better than kim so yeon.
