Tattoos are a great way to express oneself and show agency over one's body but it is also an acquired taste. While it does add to the visual aesthetic of an individual, that is not simply the only reason why someone might choose to get a tattoo. Tattoos have a rich history and are often imbued with great meaning. At the same time, not everyone likes tattoos. As long as both parties, those who like tattoos and those who don't, respect each other, the world will remain a pretty cool place to live in.
If you're one of those people who love tattoos, either on yourself or on others, here are some tattoo designs we think would perfectly suit the personalities and visuals of the ASTRO members!
Note: This article is just for fun!
1. JinJin - Gumiho
JinJin's strength of character, emotional maturity, wisdom, and selfless nature remind us of our favorite nine-tailed foxes. Without a doubt, therefore, a gumiho would be the perfect tattoo motif for him.
2. Rocky - Nike, Goddess of Victory
Rocky's artistic expression is a reflection of his pure soul. We can totally imagine him with a tattoo that portrays a similar sentiment. This gorgeous cinematic tattoo of Nike, the Goddess of Victory would be just the right fit for Rocky.
3. MJ - Picasso's 'The Dream'
MJ is sunshine incarnate. His colourful personality needs to be complemented by something equally vivid and impactful. This abstract rendition of Picasso's 'The Dream' would look incredible on MJ and would suit him perfectly.
4. Cha EunWoo - Norigae
Cha EunWoo represents a sense and sensibility that we've only perhaps seen in romance novels. He is ethereal but grounded and oh so beautiful. For him, we have this tattoo of a norigae.
5. MoonBin - Sea Horse
MoonBin's emotionally charged, perceptive and strong personality requires an equally powerful symbol. If we were to give MoonBin a tattoo, it would be that of a sea-horse: the perfect emblem of patience, persistence, perseverance, and love.
6. Yoon SanHa - A Tiger Among Blue Lotus Flowers
SanHa is all things soft and sweet. However, he is also fiercely loyal and protective. He is not afraid to show his vulnerability and has a strong sense of self. A minimal and dreamy tattoo like this would capture his duality and would be perfect for SanHa.
