Sorry :cry: for the late update(which sup­posed to be done 2 days ago).

IRIS. That’s the topic for the day. :-)

Google about IRIS. It will give you hun­dreds of result. Which IRIS am i going to talk about today? Ever heard of IRIS 2009 ? Some may be won­der­ing what is IRIS 2009 or never heard it before :twisted:

IRIS 2009, is a korean drama :-) .  It is the 1st ever spy :-P based korean drama. Well, every­thing has their 1st.  Let’s see what’s the 1st in IRIS.

  1. The bud­get for the IRIS pro­duc­tion, has been reported over  16.7 mil­lion USD :roll: ‚which makes it the most expen­sive 8-O korean drama ever produced
  2. The loca­tion for the drama, not just hap­pened in South Korea, but also Hun­gary, bor­der of North and South Korea, Akita in Japan and etc.
  3. Lee Byung Hun as the main char­ac­ter in this drama(as Kim Hyun Jun)handsome :-o
  4. Kim Tae Hee as the main char­ac­ter in IRIS(as Choi Seung Hee)pretty :-o That’s why  Hyun Jun fall in love with Seung Hee  :-P
  5. The mil­i­tary weapons and the tech­nol­ogy used, which includes the lift which needs a bio scan to be done before it can be used and the gas mask. ;-)

Well, this show is quite new. It started broad­cast on 19 Oct 2009 in Korea and ended on 17th Dec 2009, with the total of 20 episode. Each episode is more than 1 hour(longer than sim­i­lar type of  drama’s show time, which nor­mally around 43 min­utes). To be pre­cise, is 1 hour and 3 min­utes. :lol:

Recently, it has been started broad­cast­ing on KBS chan­nel.

Well, for those ASTRO sub­scribers, you can watch it on Chan­nel 303(KBS WORLD). The air­time is on every WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY, 9pm :lol:

IRIS is mainly about love, spy, betrayal, assasin and romance.  Hyun Jun, one of the top in Spe­cial Force, was cho­sen to enter the NSS(National  Secu­rity Ser­vice) with the code name of TK-1. Even the pres­i­dent doesn’t know about the exis­tence of NSS in first place.

TK-1  falled in love :oops: with his team leader, Seung Hee.  Jin Sa Woo(enter NSS together with Hyun Jun), Hyun Jun’s sworn blood brother, also fall in love with Seung Hee but he supressed :cry: his feel­ing and wished them the best.

The first mis­sion went smoothly. However,everything has changed, when they(Sa Woo and Hyun Jun) received the order to undergo a mis­sion in Hun­gary, where they are asked to escort  Seung Ryong, who head­sNorth Korea nuclear research, request­ing for polit­i­cal asylum.



Every­thing seems to be smooth, until Seung Ryong was assainated while on the way to the plane. IRIS. IRIS is the one who behind all these. Vick, one of the IRIS, killed Seung Ryong. They are look­ing for the IRIS list, which will make IRIS this organ­i­sa­tion going to be crushed any­time if the gov­ern­ment found out about them.


IRIS is an organ­i­sa­tion which does not sup­port peace and aims for wars. IRIS has been in all around the world, and even infil­trate the gov­ern­ment admin­is­tra­tion. Seung Ryong has the IRIS list, which is the rea­son he was assas­i­nated 8-O .

Later, Hyun Jun was given iso­lated mis­sion by vice direc­tor of NSS, Bak San. EX mis­sion, which means assasin an impor­tant per­son. Hyun Jun suc­ceed in the mis­sion under the tight secu­rity, how­ever, he was wounded and wasn’t able to escape in his con­di­tion. He asked for backup, how­ever, Bak San rejected.

Later, Sa Woo appeared right in front of him. He was in joy, Sa Woo is going to help him out in the sit­u­a­tion. But, thing’s not as he think.  Sa Woo betrayed him. Sa Woo pointed his gun at his sworn blood brother.

Hyun Jun man­aged to escape, despite he is seri­ously wounded. Half a year later, he awoke, find­ing him­self in hos­pi­tal, saved by a mys­te­ri­ous voice. He learned that Bak San was work­ing under IRIS. He started his jour­ney back to Korea, to revenge, and find out about IRIS.

With the pres­i­dent help, Hyun Jun re-enter NSS, fight­ing IRIS with his life. With the infor­ma­tion entrusted by Seung Ryong, Hyun Jun try his best to crack down IRIS. This time, the North and South Korea are set to be reunify, while IRIS try to stop the reuni­fi­ca­tion. Hyun Jun mean­while, join­ing with Cheol Yeong, try­ing to make this uni­fi­ca­tion possible.

Seri­ously, this IRIS drama, is nice.  The scence, the plot, the romance, the gun­fire power, every­thing is perfect(for me)!  We can also see how advance and how heavy is the Korea’s tac­ti­cal assault team gears.

Part of the IRIS for u all to enjoy, so that you all will tune to chan­nel 303 every WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY,9pm :lol:
