While it is becoming more common among celebrities, tattoos are still fairly taboo in Korea, but one star who gained attention for her artwork was Nana.
In 2022, Nana shocked fans when she showed off a huge range of intricate and bold tattoos. While it received some backlash, a lot of international fans loved the different designs and how they looked when she was wearing more revealing outfits.
In 2023, netizens were surprised when Nana revealed that she was in the process of getting rid of her artwork, and it was all because of her mother’s request. In photos, fans saw the artwork slowly fade throughout the year as she attended different events and shared images online.
Nana has become a hot topic on the Korean forum theqoo after the results of that removal have become even more clear.
Recently, Nana shared some photos on her Instagram, and unless you look clearly, it looks as if she never had them, as all can be seen are some faint scars that come with the tattoo removal process.
On May 8, Nana posted some new photos on her Instagram. In the photos, there were clearer shots of Nana’s skin, where the tattoos were slowly removed, and like the previous shots, all that could be seen were some scarring.
When the photos and timeline of Nana’s tattoos were posted, netizens reacted to the transformation in very different ways.
Some netizens thought the process was going well as it had only been a year, but others found it hard to see the scarring, realizing that it would be very hard to remove all traces of the tattoo. It wasn’t surprising that some fans had very strong views on the tattoos, criticizing her decision in the first place and the idea of tattoos.
- Wow, but if it’s at this point, it might still need to be covered up with makeup…
- Wow, by my standards, it seems to be cleanly and quickly fading away.
- Even if it’s removed, it leaves a scar on the skin… As you get older, your skin deteriorates(?) Tattoos are like cigarettes…
- Still, it’s faintly visible. It’s not in a photo, but if you see it in person, it might be even more noticeable… I wish people wouldn’t get tattoos on impulse or follow trends, especially just because idols have them.
- Wow, it really takes a long time…
- I thought it would be erased quickly as it’s been a year.
- If you were going to erase it anyway, why did you do it in the first place? You shouldn’t have done it from the beginning ㅜ Like that, you hurt your whole body a lot.
- Oh, it’s not properly erased….. It just became a scar.
Nana looked beautiful with tattoos and still stunning without, which is a choice she made.
