Actress Kim Tae Hee has been cast in the upcoming drama “IRIS” and will be collaborating with Lee Byung Hun. Kim Tae Hee will play as the partner of Lee Byung Hun in this spy action drama. The production company of “IRIS“, Taewon Entertainment, disclosed this information today, 10th of October.
This, if realized, will be Kim Tae Hee return work since her last drama “Love Story in Harvard” back in 2004.
Kim Tae Hee will ditch her past image and play as an agent of a National Intelligence Agency (NSS) with an with a clear and sensitive mind. She will also be thwarting terrorist activities with her colleague Lee Byung Hun in several action scenes.
She also appears to be in a love triangle with Lee Byung Hun and another colleague, Jin Sa Woo, which the cast has not been finalized.
“IRIS” is scheduled for broadcast next summer.
(I’m officially disappointed as Son Ye Jin will not be playing in this drama. She has been replaced by Kim Tae Hee. No offense to Kim Tae Hee fans though, I really do prefer Son Ye Jin.)

teokongOh no! I would definitely want Son Ye Jin to act as Lee Byung Hun’s lover. It was mentioned earlier that SYJ will be the one. Hanfever, please keep us update.
Thanks for the news.

added these words on anneI’m too disappointed to hear this. I’m a fan of Kim Tae Hee’s style, she’s great in CF & ads. But not a fan when watching her in movie or tv drama. I was looking forward to Irish, now not so much.
