On January 24, Han So-hee posted a photo on her Instagram without any accompanying text. In the photo, Han So-hee is seen posing in a black strap top and jeans. With her hair braided into two pigtails and bold smoky makeup, she exudes a striking, sultry charm that immediately draws attention.
What especially caught the eye was the tattoo on her side chest. Previously, it was reported that Han So-hee spent around 20 million won to remove tattoos in preparation for her acting debut. This raises curiosity about whether the tattoo is a sticker or if she has revealed a previously covered tattoo.
This isn’t the first time Han So-hee has shared images of tattoos. On December 14, 2024, Han So-hee posted a series of photos incuding one of her arms plastered with tattoo stickers.
Earlier, on June 7, 2024, she uploaded another photo showing her upper body, which revealed her smooth white skin while she wore a black sleeveless tee. Her skinny frame and impressive collarbone line caught the attention of fans, but the tattoos on her upper body were especially notable. Fans soon discovered that these tattoos were temporary stickers.
Some netizens support Han So-hee’s bold transformation, while others feel unfamiliar because they like her innocent image more.
Before her debut, Han So-hee had numerous tattoos, but she reportedly removed them all with the support of her agency to avoid any restrictions on her acting career.
Despite this, Han So-hee had initially wanted to keep her tattoos, and in a past interview, she shared, “I didn’t want to remove my tattoos. Didn’t I pay to get them?” However, she also acknowledged that there were practical reasons for their removal, explaining, “Certain restrictions naturally arise in your daily life when you start working, you know.”
Han So-hee plays the lead role in “Heavy Snow”, a movie scheduled to premiere in the second half of this year. It tells the story of Seol (Han So-hee), a child star that aspiring actress Su-an (Han Hae-in) met at an arts high school in Gangneung. The two build a relationship between friendship and love, lean on each other then part ways and look for each other again.
