Thanks to a South Korean tattoo artist, we can now take our beloved pets everywhere we go. Sort of.
Even though tattoos are illegal in South Korea, a Seoul-based artist named Jiran is known for specializing in unique and fun pet tattoos. Instead of focusing on extreme detailing, Jiran recreates the pets in a fun way. Every single one of his cartoon-like tattoos is cheerful and brings out the pets' true spirit. You can find more of his tattoos on Instagram.

NOO they got the B&W cat's face marking wrong!! That's the cutest part!! xD
I guess I am known to be very critical when it comes to tattoos, even though I have to admit that some have quite artistic values. But these...you may like the style, but they utterly fail to capture the dogs' and cats' expression, personality, and mood. Some even seem to be ironic, turning the animal appearance up and down.
Some of them dont even resemble the animals.... and im totally confused about the pot leaves!😂
I don't know if these are real if you look closely they look drawn on!
I think these have to be taken in the spirit in which they were created.... Naive and charmingly cartoonish.... I love this style , art is subjective after all.....
Whether you like the tattoos or not, that's a personal matter. But these tattoos are done very good. You don't see any mistake in the lines, fat lines where they have to, thin lines where they have to, and the color is in the skin. The lines are all nice and smooth, nowhere a crack to be seen. Good job!
These are not tattoos, in some pics you can see colors spread (white lines on top of black), this is some kind of bodypaint!
I would love to do this with my two cats, but my sisters tell me I need wait till I find someone. Something about "dying alone..." ;)
In Korean culture the dead is burried with pot leaves. Art is subjective, to the 44 people who got the tattoo, well they liked it. You don't walk in a tattoo shop without seeing a draft made prior to actually inking it on you. I actually like the way the artist did the lining, shading and coloring. Once again, art is subjective. Cheers.
How do i get s tattoo of my dog from you? Your work is awesomely cute!!
Is the artist 6 years old? My daughter makes better drawings than this... The concept is cute, but the tattoo work needs improvement!
