I wanna know where I can get them done. I'm in Daegu, but I'm going to Seoul at Lunar New Year.

Please, no comments about tattoos not fitting in with K culture. I seldom go to work topless Embarassed

Tattoo artists are very secretive. The only ones I know would only accept customers who they meet socially, and you would have to set up an appointment. it might take two trips to Seoul.

You can get it done in Seoul (Itaewon specifically). There is a place on the bottom of "the hill."

There's a place in Nonhyun-dong, apparently expensive but really good. Seeing as how this is apparently all secretive and stuff, you can PM me for the name if someone else hasn't already sent it to you...

I just got mine done in the Philippines rather than spend that much money Wink

Can someone please PM me with some details of decent places? I am new to the board and haven't posted enough to PM others yet.

Would really appreciate it...especially if someone has actually had a tatoo done there.

Cheers

No PMs are necessary. Try a search for "tattoo".

This is the link to the guy in Nonhyeon-dong. www.yushitattoo.com

This guy is in SeoHyun in bundang. He doesnt speak much English so you will need a korean to help.

While I was getting mine done, a korean guy was getting a full back piece of a tiger done. Looked very impressive.

I'm really am getting fcuking sick of your judgemental comments. Do us all a favor and jump off a bridge.

Thanks for the links/PMs/constructive replies everyone else.
