Hollywood actors Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway visited Korea with "The Devil Wears Prada 2" after 20 years. Meryl Streep, who was in her 50s, was in her 70s, and Anne Hathaway, who was 22, was 42 and came back.

The movie "The Devil Wears Prada" at the Four Seasons Hotel in Gwanghwamun, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 8th A press conference was held in Korea. Actors Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway attended the event.

The movie 'The Devil Wears Prada' "2" is about Miranda, the editor-in-chief of the legendary fashion magazine "Runway," and Andy, who returned as a planning editor after 20 years, reunite with Emily, who became an executive of a luxury brand, and risk all his career to take the lead in the fashion world once again in a completely different media environment. It has been 20 years since "The Devil Wears Prada," which was released in 2006.

Meryl Streep, who first visited Korea through the event, said "Hello" in Korean and said, "I'm so excited to see the mountain range while flying to Korea like this. I didn't know much about Seoul and passed through Korea while passing around the world, but it's my first time visiting," he said. "It's so nice. The hotel I stayed at now is the best hotel I've ever stayed in my life. I almost couldn't get up because the bed was so nice. Thank you for welcoming me so warmly. I'm excited to show you a movie I love so much, and I'm happy to bring a proud work."

Anne Hathaway, who visited Korea for the first time in eight years, said, "I'm happy to be back in Korea. But I'm a little disappointed because it would have been nice if it had been a little long, but I stay for a short time. There are so many things I want to do. I want to go to the Byeolmadang Library. It's on my bucket list," he said. "I'm so happy to be here, and I want to do a lot of things in the given time. I'm thinking about how to eat a lot of delicious food," he said.

Meryl Streep picked K Culture as Korea's "luxury." Meryl Streep said, "I really like Korean barbecues. "I often go and enjoy it with my children in the United States," he said. "And when I am in the United States, I hear a lot about Korean culture. I have six grandchildren. The kids talk about K-pop Demon Hunters every day and sing every day. That's how much we talk about K-pop and K-culture. Looking at that, I think the world is connected and influences each other a lot even if they are far away. "Growing up, I wasn't influenced much by other countries, but now it's so beautiful that we're connected like this."

Anne Hathaway said, "What if you write an article about Korea as a character in the play?"Korea is leading the culture of the younger generation, especially in the music field, and its influence is unique," he said, citing K-pop and K-beauty. "I am also interested in the outstanding capabilities of fashion and skincare." As it is a country with so many rich contents, I want to actively appeal these strengths," he said. Anne Hathaway then expressed her affection, saying, "If we are real fashion editors and can do an interview, I would like to interview Korean director Park Chan-wook and Bong Joon-ho, who I like."

Anne Hathaway also said, "Twenty years ago, when I was 22, I played Andy, 22. "I had a super cool, scary boss, and I got the opportunity to act with a super great actor, and that experience made me," he said. "I was very influenced by Meryl Streep in every way. I'm not exaggerating, it's really had a lot of influence. After this movie came out, I felt like I received a big gift from my life," he said, expressing his feelings for the series.

Meryl Streep said of the meaning of the work, "I don't think why we didn't do season two of the work earlier. This scenario should have come out now. "I needed 20 years," he said. "I think it's hard to see a woman in her 70s or older like me playing a boss as the main character in any movie. "I'm excited to be representative and play the role of boss on behalf of all those women," he said, adding, "I recently decorated the cover of Vogue with Anna Wintour, the editor of Vogue. She is 76 years old the same age as me. The person who took the picture was also 76 years old. We filmed with the same age. I think that if women over the age of 50 are gradually disappearing from their works, their opinions or cultures are less reflected. I'm happy to show a character who has a strong presence like Miranda," he added.

Meanwhile, the devil wears Prada '2' will be released on April 29.
