Food, Film, and Family
As the conversation unfolded, Jin playfully guided the dialogue from discussing the legendary Mission Impossible series to showcasing Korea’s lesser-known summertime dish: mulhwe, a zesty cold seafood soup. True to his method-acting roots, Cruise took a bite and approved with a thumbs-up, demonstrating his genuine interest in Korean culture.

In a touching moment, Jin requested a selfie to share with his mother. In a delightful twist, Cruise suggested making a FaceTime call, transforming the casual request into an extraordinary experience.

Endearing Banter
The lively exchange culminated with Jin asking if he could join the Mission Impossible franchise—not as an agent but as a radio operator. In true Cruise fashion, he spun this into a fictional emergency, prompting Jin to humorously prefer to stay with BTS instead. This playful banter encapsulated the spirit of the episode, merging both worlds in a memorable way.
A Cultural Crossover
As Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning continues to dominate the Korean box office, it’s evident that Tom Cruise’s appearance on Run Jin transcended mere promotional activity. He seamlessly stepped into a new cultural landscape, thanks to the charm of Jin, marking a significant moment in the intersection of Western and Asian pop culture.
