Actors Arnold Schwarzenegger and Emilia Clarke from “Terminator: Genisys" have expressed their excitement at visiting Korea to promote the film.

Appearing on

KBS’s “Entertainment Tonight” on Saturday, the stars talked about how the Korean public had welcomed them enthusiastically, and their experiences.

“I had this ridiculously brilliant Korean scrub last night,” Clark said on the show, apparently talking about an exfoliation service she received at a public bath house. “I feel good as new. I think we are going to have some Korean barbeque tonight.”

Clark said fans should pay attention to Schwarzenegger’s comedy in the film.

“I always feel that Korean fans are the greatest fans,” Schwarzenegger said on the show. He said his character, T-800, was complex and sometimes tried to be a human but failed, which made him funny.

On Thursday, some 2,000 fans flocked to Lotte World Mall in Songpa-gu district, eastern Seoul, where a red carpet event was held for the stars.
