The cast of Marvel's 'Black Panther' was greeted by 2,000 fans at the first international Asia premiere in Seoul, South Korea on the evening of February 5.

As a reference to the title itself, actors Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, actress Lupita Nyong'o, and director Ryan Coogler stepped on the black carpet for the special occasion, as opposed to the usual red carpet. Most of the film was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia but some of the key moments in the film including a pivotal chase scene were filmed in Busan, South Korea.

The cast took the time to interact with fans on site as well as a Naver 'V' Live broadcast with Eric Nam hosting the live stream.  The cast was also delighted to take photos with avid Marvel fans cosplaying as characters from 'Avengers'.  Upon receiving much praise from the Korean fanbase, Chadwick Boseman commented, "This is the most lively crowd I've ever experienced. You guys are the best. I feel like a famous sports star or something. Thank you for the warm welcome."

Singer Eric Nam posted a black and white photo via Twitter together with the Hollywood stars, causing many to anticipate the worldwide release of the blockbuster film.
