Hey Seoul Crusher!
So, you wanna know about this K-pop tattoo drama that’s been blowing up online? Let me break it down for you in a chill way:
So, there’s this new idol from ZEROBASEONE called Ricky, right? Well, he got a tattoo that’s got everyone talking. Why? ‘Cause it looks super similar to G-Dragon’s famous archangel Michael tattoo on the back of his neck. You know, the one GD used to hide from his parents by growing out his hair? Yeah, that one!
Anyway, Ricky’s got a similar tattoo on his ribs, and people are like, “Whoa, that’s almost identical!” But here’s the kicker – turns out G-Dragon is actually Ricky’s idol and the reason he wanted to become a K-pop star in the first place. Pretty cool, huh?
Ricky even talked about GD in an interview, saying how he got into K-pop because of him. He was like:
“According to Ricky, G-Dragon’s ‘Black.’ I fell in love after watching this performance in elementary school. I wondered how this person could be so cool. Then, I started to watch more stage performances and slowly became interested in K-Pop. I think just like how this song made me who I am today, this song is what made me want to become a singer”.

But here’s where it gets interesting – Korean netizens are totally split on this whole tattoo situation. Some think it’s awesome, others not so much.
So, what do you think about all this? Is it a cool tribute or a bit too much? I’m dying to hear your take on it!
