Particularly, he has left a deep impression on Korean fans, who see him not just as a simple movie actor but as a “trusted global star.” Director Christopher McQuarrie and key actors who came with him will meet Korean fans directly through official events on May 8th. Such schedules add more meaning in terms of genuine communication with fans. “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” is highly anticipated as it is expected to be the pinnacle of a series that has been loved by fans for a long time. Domestic audiences have already shown a great response in ticket reservations, and the box office outlook is bright. Tom Cruise’s consistent visits go beyond just fan service. His strategic choice to perceive Korea as an important global film market could serve as a foundation for more Hollywood content to promote around Korea in the future. His visit is being evaluated as a case that creates positive connections between cultural exchange and the film industry.
