On May 12, SEVENTEEN held an on-site fan sign. Out of all the members, it was The8 who caused a stir on social media for his unique advice to fans.
One fan asked The8 how he felt about using an idol's name as a tattoo. Hearing this, The8 automatically disagreed. He offered the fan advice, which immediately went viral online. Fans claimed they felt enlightened due to The8's advice.
He told the fan, "Don't tattoo my name. Don't tattoo any man's name. Whether it's your boyfriend's name or your idol's name. I think you shouldn't tattoo anybody's name at all. If you really want a tattoo, you should get one that is meaningful to you. But I really don't encourage tattooing anyone's name."
🎱dont get me as a tattoo, dont get men-, dont get your boyfriend or me as a tattoo. i dont think you should get names as a tattoo. if you really want to get a tattoo, get something meaningful to yourself...but i don't really recommend it

Just like minghao said, I will be novel about tattoos, I will also consider my own body first, maybe I will tattoo things that are of great significance to me. I really love you.

One of the reasons I like about him is that he often puts himself in a woman's shoes
