With the opening of “Maze Runner: The Death Cure” only a few days left, cast members of the film were spotted in Seoul, Korea while they’re visiting the city for a promotional tour.

On January 10, Maze Runner Korea’s official Facebook page uploaded several pictures showing the actors in Korea. With the caption reading, “Runners’ first night in Korea,” the page released a photo of Dylan O’Brien, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, and Ki Hong Lee having a dinner with other staffs. In the picture, the three actors are smiling with glasses of Korean traditional alcoholic beverage, Makgoli, in their hands.

While the local release of the third Maze Runner movie only a week away, cast members of the movie are continuing their promotion in Korea. On January 11, Dylan, Thomas, and Ki Hong made appearances on a popular local radio show “Cultwo Show.”

To the question asking their impressions about Korean food, Dylan mentioned Soju and Makgoli, adding that his favorite Korean dish is Samgyeopsal. Ki Hong expressed his will to make another appearance in a Korean movie, especially of a romance genre.

The third and the last of the series, “Maze Runner: The Death Cure” will be released first in Korea on January 17.
