Tom Cruise visited Korea for the 12th time.

On the 7th, Tom Cruise arrived at Gimpo International Airport by private plane after 4 p.m. He stepped on Korean soil with director Christopher McQuarrie to promote the movie `Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning.' As soon as they arrived, they still provided friendly fan service to the fans who were waiting.

He signed Korean-style finger hearts one by one, and he readily responded to requests for photos, showing his kind uncle Tom again this time.

Tom Cruise, who is 62 years old this year, caught the eye with a younger face. He faithfully passed the first gateway to Korea with a warm smile and energy.
