"So I am just continuing my business and thank you for compliments. I try to be as professional as possible always. And um -- I'm getting excited to be here in Korea. I think it's a great market for me, and everybody seems so nice. So Im very happy to be here now," Hilton told a news conference at Seoul's Hyatt Hotel.. She added she understood what paparazzi were doing. "Basically I know they're doing their job. Everybody has their job to do. So I respect that. And um --- when you are a celebrity, that comes to territory. So you can't complain about it. Because it's just gonna happen anyway. So I just leave my life how I do and don't let it bother me," said Hilton.
