Hey Folks!
I tried looking up info on Dave's for tattoo shops in Seoul, but most of the info was outdated.....

Does anyone know:
1: A reputable shop in Seoul?
2: Personally an artist whose done work on them before
3: Prices for tattoos here

Cheers and thanks in advance for your help!

1. www.yushitattoo.com as I posted in another recent thread.

2. See above.

3. Expensive. 1,100,000 for a shoulder piece. My friend had a thick brushstroke tattooed around a hanja character he already had, and that cost him 300,000.

There are reputable and cheaper places, one that a friend went to in Hongdae who did good work on him for example, but I have no personal experience with them, nor do I have contact information.

thanks sam...
that guy looks like a wicked artist, but ya, a little pricy for what i want to get...

Anyone else heard of a tattoo artist in hongdae?

I reckon you'd be far better off combining yr need for a tattoo with a holiday in Thailand. Wicked artists, passable English, just shop around until you find a place that meets yr hygine standards- they do exist.
