윌 스미스-이완 맥그리거 재치남 vs. 진지남

할리우드 스타 윌 스미스와 이완 맥그리거가 6일 인천국제공항을 통해 내한했다. 

윌 스미스는 ‘맨 인 블랙’ 시리즈 속 제이와 같은 장난기 가득한 모습으로 기자회견장의 분위기를 달아오르게 만들었다. 한국어로 “안녕”이라는 인사도 건네고 “원더걸스가 외계인이 아닐까” 농담을 하기도 하며 유머러스한 모습을 보였다.

반면 이완 맥그리거는 서울 중구 소공동 웨스틴 조선호텔에서 열린 기자회견에 참석해 젠틀하면서도 진지한 대답을 하며 영국 신사의 모습을 보였다. 

그는 인생 최고의 경험은 “아빠가 된 것”이라며 딸 바보다운 면모를 보였다.
