• Korean netizens have mixed reactions to TWICE Chaeyoung's arm tattoos

    TWICE's Chaeyoung has become a hot topic because of her tattoos.

    On September 4, a post about Chaeyoung began trending on Nate's community board Pann under the title, "Check out Chaeyoung's tattoos".

    The netizen who wrote the post stated, "But after seeing those tattoos, why are you guys calling her "GAY"?".

    The netizen also showed pictures of Chaeyoung's arm tattoos and posted them on an online community.

    Chaeyoung's tattoos are rarely seen because Korean broadcasting rules say artists can't show their tattoos on TV. So, many Netizens were very interested in the post.

    Many fans loved Chaeyoung's tattoos and complimented her art, but there were a few netizens who didn't like Chaeyoung's tattoos very much.

    Korean netizens said:

    This is the worst tattoo I've ever seen on a celebrity, and I hate it…

    What is this, it's disgusting?

    Unrelated, but that picture of her makes her look pretty as hell.

    She would be better off leaving the team and living the free life she has always wanted. Anyway, she has no skills, so nothing can stop her. If she shows her teammates the wrong way to act, the other kids will start getting tattoos too. I don't judge people for having tattoos, but they should at least look nice. I don't know where she got this idea.

    Overseas, they call all homosexuals "Gay". But honestly the tattoo is so so.

    What are your thoughts on the post about Chaeyoung?

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
