Han Sohee: "Removing tattoos is really painful ... It became a disadvantage, removing them for work is the right choice"



 

Han Sohee shared these thoughts during an interview on the afternoon of the 16th, ahead of the release of her movie, 'Project Y.'

Known for her beauty and unique fashion sense, Han Sohee has also been widely recognized as an actress who enjoyed tattoos. However, she has been consistently removing them as she builds a different image. 

She repeatedly saying, "It's really painful.' She added, "I still have some tattoos left. I only got them in places that wouldn't interfere too much with my projects."

She continued, "Technology has improved so much these days. There are so many options, like tattoo stickers and other things. I just use those instead.I don't feel burdened by the attention on my fashion or tattoos. I've always dressed this way, and I think a lot of people like my personal style. Of course, I should show different sides of myself, but I don't obsess over things like, 'What should I wear tomorrow?'"

Regarding her reason for removing her tattoos, she explained, "As an actress, I can't wear dresses. There needs to be diversity in the roles that I take. As you know, I had tattoos on my arms. Considering the wide variety of outfits I have to wear and the different moods that I need to express, I felt that (the tattoos) were a disadvantage."

She further explained, "I think that's why I decided to remove them. I figured I can always get them again later if I want. So for now, it was right to remove them for the sake of my work."

'Project Y' tells the story of Misun (Han Sohee) and Dokyung (Jeon Jongseo), who live in the heart of a glamorous city while dreaming of different futures. They both end up stealing black money and gold bars when pushed to the edge of their lives.

1. [+203][-19] It's not like henna doesn't exist. I honestly don't get why grown-ups with fully formed brains get tattoos. Seriously, kids, please just do henna. Don't get tattoos. They bring literally zero benefit to your life. If you really want to get one, just use henna instead.

2. [+105][-6] Tattoo is a sign of a cheap life.

3. [+101][-4] I heard tattoos can be addictive. You have such a beautiful skin, don't scribble all over it. If you really want to get one, please just use the sticker ones. As people get older, their actions and words reflect on their faces more than their natural looks do. You have to manage yourself well to maintain a healthy body. You may have come from a difficult background, but since you’ve become an actress like this, I hope you last long not just as a star, but as a truly good actress.
