they love their pets,
and some in South Korea have taken their love to a new level, by having a illegal tattoo of their pet tattooed on them, but these are not just ordinary tattoos they are hyper realistic renditions of the owners pets,
back to the beginning, it is illegal for any South Korea
citizen to have any tattoos unless they are by a qualified doctor, for
generations, tattoos were stigmatised as a symbol of Korean gangsters,
moreover, tattoos challenge traditional Confucian notions about preserving the
body, but this is about to change as law makers take into account the estimated
20,000 tattooists who work illegally often in parlours with
unmarked store-fronts, risking steep fines and police busts,
tattoo advocates say the law is outdated and that medical risks are lowered
with proper hygiene in place, so people like Soi Tattoo may soon be able to work without fearing a knock on their door as he makes these incredibly detailed tattoos.
