Back in the late ’90s and even up through parts of the ’00s there were people that got tattoos of Asian hieroglyphic characters, just because they looked cool.

While I haven’t seen a whole lot of Romanic characters stenciled on the locals, many young people wear shirts even if they don’t know what it may say.
Exhibit A:
I snapped this photo during a scavenger hunt through one of the many jam-packed markets on Korea’s Constitution Day.
There are a million more where this one comes from, most of which are not family friendly…
