I think when most Americans see the word “iris” in all capitals (IRIS) we can’ help but think of the bloody IRS and then we get cold sweats. 

Anyway, Big Bang’s resident actor and rapper, TOP, is starring along side Lee Byung Hun in the high-budget, high profile drama, IRIS. The drama, set to air early next year, involves the secret organization, IRIS, that sends TOP’s character, an assassin, to kill Lee Byung Hun’s. IRIS is based in the states so there will be lots of overseas filming in America but also in Russia, China and Japan. 

I’ve never seen TOP act, minus the NG’s from I am Sam, so I’m curious to see how he’ll do in what looks to be a high-octane drama. If he was chosen to work along side Lee Byung Hun and directors Kang Jae Gyu, of war movie Taeguki and Lee Hyung Min, of sob-drama I’m Sorry, I Love You, then he must have been rather impressive. 

Not much else is known about the drama as they won’t starting shooting until the end of this year, much of their overseas filming being done in October.
