HEAD ARTIST · SEOUL TATTOO STUDIO
I've been working as a tattoo artist for 16 years, developing expertise across blackwork, realism, traditional, and geometric styles. From the very first piece to today, I strive to carry each client's story within every tattoo.
Tattooing is not just drawing — it's the expression of a person's story and identity. I take the time before every session to fully understand the client's vision through in-depth consultation, then bring it to life at the highest quality.
15 awards at home and abroad, and over 500 completed works speak for the craftsmanship. Safety and hygiene come first — all tools are either single-use or autoclave-sterilized.
