B2ST Doojoon’s role for ‘IRIS 2′ finalized

Previously, it had been reported that Doojoon‘s role in ‘IRIS 2‘ was confirmed, and that he would be playing agent Yoon Shi Hyuk.

However that was just speculation and plans have now been finalized, and it has been revealed that he will actually be playing Seo Hyun Woo, an NSS elite agent. Seo Hyun Woo is a confident, bright agent who is adept at everything including shooting, martial arts, code breaking, and foreign languages. Not only that, but he will have a heart wrenching love triangle with the main characters Jang Hyuk and Lee Da Hae.

Doojoon has proven his acting skills before in both dramas and movies, so fans are highly anticipating his role in the drama. He is planning to showcase an intense charisma that will rival T.O.P in the first ‘IRIS‘.

In “WOW”, Ilhoon wore this black hat with silver spikes with a black and white tank, silver chains, white pants and shoes, a skull-shaped belt buckle, white and metal bracelets, and a white sweatband.

For SISTAR’s cover of 2PM‘s “Hands Up” at the October 11 ‘M! Countdown Smile Thailand‘ special, Bora wore the hat with a red jersey, black shorts, and white shoes.  Unlike Ilhoon, she wore her hat backwards and to the side.

The hat can be purchased at Stylenanda’s website for ~$40 USD.
