Tattoo love: These 5 K-pop idols are inked with symbols that have deeper significance

True K-pop fans would be totally aware of how expressive and energetic their idols are!

They are known to convey emotions and feelings not only by their breathtaking choreography and soulful vocals, but also through body art.

Who doesn’t love tattoos!

We all do, maybe on others if not on ourselves, but we can’t deny that by just looking at such strange and beautiful designs, our heart goes for them.

Tattoos are an exceptional form of art that express significant meaning and add much more zeal and value to the bearer’s personal life, than to the spectator’s.

Most of our favourite K-pop artists are inked with reminders and cherishing memories, some of them being past struggles and loses while others are their life moto or simply for fun.

Checkout these five idols, who flaunt their tattoos with honour and pride, having mastered the skills of visual communication.

 

#1 Jungkook from BTS

This cutie has an arm full of tattoos but doesn’t let them show much!

BTS’ youngest member recently got his entire arm inked but hasn’t got suitable opportunities to flaunt them enough.

However, fans have been lucky to witness a few glimpses of some of his tattoos while him featuring in live shows and promotional events.

Some of the symbols include, a tiger flower with “Please Love Me”, debut date ” 0613″ that is June 2013, “ARMY”, the alphabet “J”, a smiley and a crown.

 

#2 Taeil from Block B

A real tattoo king!

This one has some amazing collection on both of his arms, that look quite prominent and bold with bright ink and colours.

What features in this artwork are, a grenade, ” 777″, a flower, an eye, an anchor, a wasp, and the greatest of all, a cheetah roaring near his elbow, and is the most distinct one among all, reflecting a part of his fierce personality.

 

#3 Chanyeol from EXO

We can never get enough of his beautiful hand!

Although minimal and simple, Chanyeol’s tattoos have deep meanings and deeper emotions attached.

One such emotion very dear and personal to him, is of his fan’s intense love and support to him not only as an artist, but as a person, in whole.

Paying back the affection and respect, he has been inked with a number “L-1485”, that signifies his bond with the fandom.

 

#4 Moonbyul from MAMAMOO

This breathtaking beauty has much more to offer!

Serving as the lead rapper for band ‘MAMAMOO’, this multi-talented artist has multiple personal tattoos on herself, right from her birth date, debut date, something about her family, to the day she tried her hands at the K-pop community.

Indeed, the queen keeps them all close to her heart and we know how important these are for her.

 

#5 Jay Park

Seems like he owns the world of tattoos!

With the maximum amount of his body covered with multiple weird and beautiful symbols, this tattoo aspirant is totally a wonder.

Left side inked with the goodness of an intricate mashup of different symbols, this view looks absolutely stunning, serving as a visual treat.

The rest of his body can be seen drenched in, a lion, a compass, “AOM”; his debut B-boy band and his debut solo album.

All of them being our favourite, we never can get enough of such treasured strokes of ink, that have depth beyond infinity!
