Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise became the latest Hollywood celebrity to visit South Korea to promote a film.
On Thursday, Cruise attended the Seoul premiere of his latest action flick Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation at the Lotte World Mall Atrium, where he was warmly greeted on the red carpet by not only eager fans but also K-pop stars.

Tiffany of Girls’ Generation also interviewed Cruise as a guest reporter for KBS’ Entertainment Weekly, which airs every Saturday in Korea, and uploaded an Instagram photo of her smiling beside the actor. In the caption, the K-pop singer wrote that she “had a blast” talking with the 53-year-old actor and thanked him for being an inspirational figure.

This is not the first time Tiffany has interviewed a Hollywood actor. In 2013, she interviewed Tom Hiddleston while he was promoting Thor: The Dark World in Seoul, where he wowed the Internet with his amazing dancing abilities.
That same year, Cruise was granted honorary citizenship of Busan during a promotional event for Jack Reacher.
