Hollywood actors Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway shared their impressions of visiting South Korea. 

A press conference for the film 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' (directed by David Frankel) was held Tuesday afternoon at the Four Seasons Hotel Seoul in Jongno-gu, Seoul. Streep and Hathaway attended.

Streep said she was excited on the flight in after seeing mountain ranges and that she had not known much about Seoul. "I've traveled a lot, but I would pass by Korea. This is my first time coming," she said.

She added that the hotel where she is staying was the best she has experienced, saying the bed was so comfortable she could hardly wake up. "Thank you for welcoming us so warmly," she said. "I'm happy we can show you a film we love so much, and I'm glad to bring a work we are proud of to Korea."

Hathaway, visiting South Korea for the first time in eight years, said she wished she could stay longer. She said visiting Starfield Library was on her bucket list but she did not have enough time. "Still, I want to do as much as I can in the time we have," she said, adding that she was thinking about how to eat as much good food as possible.

'The Devil Wears Prada 2' follows Miranda (Streep), editor-in-chief of the legendary fashion magazine Runway, and Andy (Hathaway), who returns as a features editor after 20 years. They reunite with Emily (Emily Blunt), now an executive at a luxury brand, and struggle to regain leadership in the fashion world amid a dramatically changed media environment. The film is set for its first theatrical release worldwide on April 29.
