Jungkook has a collage of tattoos on his right sleeve and the tiger lily is one among them. The tiger lily is his birth flower and was initially etched as a grayscale tattoo. Recently he replaced it with new ink and added color to the tattoo. He also honored his tattoo artist by inking his name “POLYC” on his forearm. If Jungkook is your favorite BTS member, a similar tattoo can be a beautiful way to show so.

4. BTS 7 Tattoo

The band members share a heartwarming bond and the “7” number tattoo is their matching friendship tattoo. The tattoo was first etched by the BTS leader Kim Namjoon, who got the tattoo on his ankle, following which all members got their “7” tattoo on their body as well. This tattoo is a celebration of the unity of the BTS gang as a septet and a simple yet meaningful tattoo idea for BTS fans.

5. BTS Matching Tattoos

The purple heart has a unique meaning in the world of BTS. The purple heart on Jungkook’s hand is enough reason for the fans to get a matching purple tattoo. “I Purple You” is coined by KimTaehyung to express their love for the BTS Army. They replaced the word ‘love’ with ‘purple’ and described that purple is the last color of the rainbow, giving it a meaning of long-lasting love.

6. BTS Tattoo For Girls

“Hope World” is the name of J-Hope’s debut mixtape, released in 2018. It was an instant superhit, loved by all across the globe. This tape is about prioritizing self-care, aspiring for peace, and counting your blessings. A Hope World tattoo can be a visual way of saying that you too value those sentiments. The fine-line rainbow adds a feminine touch to the design while also adding a sense of all-love to the final look.

Jimin’s tattoos have always been a hot topic among BTS fans. They search with eager eyes for new tattoos in his photos and public appearances. He has seven inked designs to date. The “Nevermind” tattoo was initially a temporary one but now is permanently inked. He confirmed that he got this tattoo in honor of Suga’s song “Intro: Nevermind,” which he had a strong liking for and connected with the song and its lyrics.

8. BTS Lyric Tattoo

The delicate and ethereal BTS lyric tattoo features the text “Serendipity” in honor of Jimin’s solo song. Like most other BTS songs, this one is also based on their experience. Even though the song features Jimin, the song is about Namjoon’s love and feelings. The song talks about rare and special things in life and is gender-neutral, making it one of the popular BTS concert tattoos for men and women.

BTS has captured the hearts of millions in the global community, thanks to its amazing lyrics and stunning visuals. Fans connect with their lyrics and are not hesitant to commit to their values. They show this in the form of inking their skin with lyrics, dates, logos, and tattoos similar to BTS members. The BTS 7 tattoo is the most popular one as all the members are inked with this one. However, creative minds have come up with many other beautiful designs that range from minimalistic to bold, colorful ones. If you feel inspired by any of our designs, don’t forget to add your personal element to it so that the final look is truly yours!
