Nana, a former member of the girl group After School, recently talked about her tattoos, which have caught the attention of the whole country.

On September 27, the idol-turned-actress star went to a press conference for her new Netflix show, "Glitch". The actress's co-star Jeon Yeo Bin and the director Roh Duk were also there.

The actress recently went viral when she showed up at a different press conference covered in tattoos. Since then, fans have been trying to figure out if her tattoos were real or not.

The actress said that the tattoos she had were for her role in the drama. Nana said, "Bora, the main character in my book, has a lot of tattoos, and I wanted each one to mean something. So, I chose each tattoo by hand after giving it a lot of thought ".

Nana dodged the question of whether or not her tattoos were real. Nana added, "Bora isn’t the only reason why I have these tattoos. I've always wanted to get these tattoos. If I have the chance in the future, I'd like to tell you why I got them or why I didn't. I don't know if that will happen ".

Many of Nana's fans loved her tattoos and praised her art, but a small number of netizens didn't like them very much.

Some Netizens were also worried about Nana's career, since it might be hard for her to get a part in a drama.

Netizens commented:

Oh, I thought it was because of her role. It doesn't look like that was the case.

She is free to do what she wants. The tattoos match her

To be honest, they look messy.

Oh, she's great.

They will be hard to hide, but since it's her own decision, who cares? I just hope she covers the big ones on TV.

If she wanted to get them, she knows the consequences. Because she has tattoos, she can tell if a door will open or close.

If she doesn't fit the role because of her tattoos, they won't cast her so who cares?

Oh, but if her tattoos don't fit her role as an actress, they'll have to cover them up all the time.

If they are problematic for the filming, they'll just cover them up.

She should do whatever she wants to do.

Are you a fan of her tattoos?

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
