Tattoo Artists in Gwangju, South Korea

Rakhan at https://www.facebook.com/155393647849430 Inkholic Tattoo in Korea did a stellar job on my last piece.

Chelsea Votel in the Inked Korea group is pretty much an encyclopedia of Korean tattoo artists. I'd ask her if younknow what style you want and she can set up meetings.

Susan mentioned her, but I'm seriously in love with Nadi's wirk, I'm getting one by here next weekend : https://www.instagram.com/tattooer_nadi/

Miho tattoo. It's downtown, one of their artists is from the US. Don't have their instagram but I can attest to his good work. I imagine searching 미호타투 should yield some results.

Club Hipster Barbershop’s owner has a lot of original ink on his arms from the American tattooist that Sam is speaking of, If it’s the same guy. Apparently he works between here and Seoul. Based on JM showing me his ink the guy is highly talented.

Ask Tony Warren, Matthew Rehrig or Tim Han. I know they have gotten inked in Gwangju.

NSOM (엔썸타투) is downtown, across from M Town (M 타운) & next to CLUB House (CLUB 하우스) in the 약도 area. 010-4400-6575 or 010-8865-4282. Designer speaks OK English, can translate everything to Tattoo Artist--they are clean & reliable, from what I've heard & seen.

Chris Bleeker might have some thoughts on this.

I'd definitely recommend Tim Han, also Lisa is right check out the Inked Korea -Yopickles tattoo connection page.

Tim Han has my vote as well. Currently working on a great piece for me now.

Tim Han might end up being the man for the job. Cheers for the recs people

I don't want to be 'that guy' that offers useless advice, but I've had three done at Ink Holic in seoul, they're fantastic, clean, professional, and really talented. Memento, the main guy, goes all over the world to different shows etc. They have a fb page and are well worth checking out. I know you asked for growing just, but just my 2 cents!

I think Tony Warren gets his done here somewhere, you should ask him.

http://Mihotattoo.co.kr/ she does really great work.

I just had some work done at Inkholic in Seoul, the guy is fantastic, he has done 2 of mine now. Speaks great English and is a very talented artist. I rocked up with 2 separate photo and he created a wonderful piece for me... http://www.facebook.com/inkholictattoo?fref=ts

Tony Warren should be able to explain a good place to you!

Inkholic Tattoo in Korea

If you're serious about getting quality work done, Apro Lee at Black Mark It is the best black-and-gray artist in the country, no competition. He's been doing some really unique stuff based on traditional Korean artwork. He travels a lot though - he does guest spots all over the world for most of the year so getting in to see him is hit and miss. The Inked Korea group is a good resource too. Chelsea would be the person to talk to.

I went to a place called Tattoo Academy. The woman speaks English pretty well

Tony Warren has gotten several done here. I would ask him.

Tony Warren?

I'd personally go to Inkholic Tattoo Korea in seoul, the artists are awesome, studios is open, clean and airy, and they really look after you well. They've done two of mine, one really big piece and the artwork/quality is immense. Well worth the time to go see them IMHO
