As Hollywood actor Tom Cruise made his 13th visit to Korea, he expressed his affection by stating that he would come to Korea 30 more times.
A press conference for the movie 'Digger' (directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu) was held at the Conrad Hotel in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 1st. Director Alejandro G. Iñárritu was originally scheduled to attend together, but could not join due to personal circumstances.
The movie 'Digger' is a film depicting the story of how a small crack that occurred at the Greenland glacier drilling facility of the stubborn eccentric chaebol 'Digger Rockwell' turns into an unprecedented catastrophe that shakes the world.
Tom Cruise visited Korea for this movie, marking his 13th visit to Korea in total and setting a record for the most visits by a Hollywood actor.
Tom Cruise, who appeared alongside K-heart on this day, explained, "First of all, Director Iñárritu wanted to be here with us, but he asked me to convey his thanks in his place. He had personal circumstances. He expressed regret that he could not join."
Following this, Tom Cruise said, "I am happy to be here together. I am also grateful for taking out this time this afternoon," looking happy. When asked about his impressions of his 13th visit to Korea, he said, "Fantastic," adding, "It is amazing. I love it. The weather today is very nice and it is truly a beautiful day. I am so happy to share 'Digger' with you all and glad to be in Korea."
Additionally, Tom Cruise stated, "As an artist, my dream is to look at human nature and enable (audiences) to find their own reflection while watching the movie." He added, "The beauty of movies also lies in the fact that they can become a common theme when we gather in theaters to watch them. Being able to work on a project of such a massive scale with talented people is a privilege for me. Sharing a work like this is truly a beautiful moment. I have come to Korea 13 times, and I want to come 30 more times in the future. If you invite me, I will definitely come."
Meanwhile, 'Digger' opens on the 3rd.
