Anyone else here a fan of the Korean drama Iris?

Thanks to Hulu, I've recently discovered the amazingly good K-Drama IRIS, and I was just curious if anyone else on here was a fan?

I heard about it a couple of months ago. It does sound interesting and I'd like to check it out, but doesn't air here. I'm not sure if Hulu is happy with where I am either

It's really good. It's baisically a Korean 24, or MI-5/Spooks. And there's also a spin-off, called Athena: Goddess of War, that takes place in the same world with some of the same supporting characters (the RoK President and his staff), and at the same time.
I'll warn anyone interested that the first 3 or 4 episodes are kind slow (they pretty much just focus on the relationship between the male and female lead) but once it gets going it gets really good.
