1. [+721, -40] Iris was 100% the fault of their miscast

2. [+600, -31] Iris's cast fail

3. [+603, -45] Iris is basically an hour long CF... That Winter, do well!

4. [+576, -31] I knew this would happen... Right from the bat, you can't even compare Song Hye Gyo and Lee Da Hae ㅋㅋ

5. [+523, -23] Looks like casting really is important... Iris 2 already has such a widely known name and yet they cast Jang Hyuk and Lee Da Hae into it... No wonder people won't care for it as much as the first season. As for That Winter, even if people aren't familiar with the plot, they're going to watch no matter what for Song Hye Gyo and Jo In Sung. The cinematography is also stunning.

1. [+250, -43] There's a huge different in just the lead roles alone. Jo In Sung vs Jang Hyuk... and well, you can't even dream of comparing Lee Da Hae to Song Hye Gyo

2. [+188, -9] The first episode is so important but Iris took it too weak. That Winter was obviously pulling everything they had with two episodes in a row.

3. [+191, -18] The second season is always bound to fail

1. [+657, -96] That Winter is seriously so fun ㅜㅜ The plot, the acting, not one thing is lackingㅜㅜ

2. [+471, -96] I saw Iris first and then That Winter's second episode... and although I want to see both, I'd have to go with That Winter over Iris if forced to choose..

3. [+465, -234] Iris has got nothing going for it other than one amazing poster.
