The not so secret Secret about Super Junior

The “Super Clowns” are back and they are funnier than ever.

Recently, Super Junior’s Kangin and Shindong released photos of themselves with their newly acquired tattoos. Living up to their new nickname (above), Shindong added to his self a freaky lovely clown with the inspirational words “A friend in need is a friend in deed”.

But the real shocker is Kangin’s tattoo. Although very elaborate and beautifully written, it definitely shows that his “Actions are more precious prection than words”. Good luck with dealing with that blunder for the rest of your life.

Wonder what this will do to their new idol image? Isn’t there some unwritten rule stating no tattoos?

    ew.

  2. 2 Y October 6, 2008 at 9:17 am

    Does Kangin even know it’s misspelled? Lol.
    Man, why would they do that?
    If you’re gonna get tatts, at least get good-looking ones
    Seriously… purple?? ahah

  4. 4 guava October 6, 2008 at 10:37 am

  5. 5 goyenechea October 6, 2008 at 10:50 am

    shindong=skinny arms..? anyway, nice ink.

    i’d rather not comment on kangin’s.

    1. better clean your face first before dirtying another part of your effin’ body you ugly pig.
    2.another disadvantage for vagrancy of the english language. does he even know how to read his tattoo?

  7. 7 GH October 6, 2008 at 10:54 am

    Actually, Kangin’s tattoo makes sense!!!!

    “Actions are more prection than words”

    prection: predictale!!!

    dumbasses!

  8. 8 Song October 6, 2008 at 10:58 am

    for real, why the tatoo? oh well, i hope they’re satisfied with it, especially kangin. does he knoow it’s spelt wrong?

  9. 9 TVXQBBLOVE October 6, 2008 at 11:14 am

    LOL, ‘Super Clowns,’ well I hope Kangin wanted it to be that way. Shindong’s tattoo looks kind of cool.

    They’re really grown now! ;)

    dumbasses!”

    What does “predictale” mean?

  11. 11 Wei x3 October 6, 2008 at 11:56 am

    i think the tats look ugly.
    the tatoo artist is at fault. (possibly kangin too. what if kangin didnt do his spelling right when he told the artist what he wanted.)
    and all ya’ll hatin on shindong bc of his skin, grow up. everyone has their flaws. this just shows that celebrities is just like us.

  12. 12 LyLe October 6, 2008 at 12:53 pm

    haha thats funny!
    ugly

  13. 13 Ann*e October 6, 2008 at 1:30 pm

    what is this???

    why did they get those
    ugly things?!
    -_-

  14. 14 chellemin October 6, 2008 at 1:36 pm

    i don’t like their new tattoos!!! it’s like that their gangsters!!!! but it’s their choice…

  15. 15 kristy October 6, 2008 at 2:16 pm

    “The not so secret Secret about Super Junior”??
    WTH!!!

  16. 16 labusiam October 6, 2008 at 2:40 pm

    Kang In’s image is the bad boy of Super Junior, isn’t it? Tattoo does support that image.

    And, Shin Dong? Come on. People really never value his idol image due to his weight. Then why did this idol image issue pop up?

    This gonna be a huge issue if the tattoo is Si Won’s.

  17. 17 boldstripes October 6, 2008 at 2:55 pm

    @ GH
    dude theres no such word as prection, i look for it…NONE…

  18. 18 KyuMin October 6, 2008 at 3:22 pm

    OMG WHY!!!!!

  19. 19 rockmyboat. October 6, 2008 at 3:28 pm

    ahahahaha

  20. 20 missglasses October 6, 2008 at 3:33 pm

    clean korean skin now full of tattoos?
    yucks…

  21. 21 awwwkangin October 6, 2008 at 3:54 pm

    dude, spellcheck is there for a reason :)
    i suggest erasing it and redoing it.

    shindong looks really thin now. i’m happy for him. it’s not easy to lose weight. yay shindong!

  22. 22 oh won bin October 6, 2008 at 4:42 pm

    poor kang in…
    i wonder who did that tattoo…
    i have no idea how koreans think

  23. 24 Sierra October 6, 2008 at 5:14 pm

    Oh gawd…. poor Kang In… :P

  24. 25 pops October 6, 2008 at 5:25 pm

    so what if they got tattoos?? it’s their bodies not yours.
    and even if you wash your skin with whatsoever, the acne will still grow..is your face THAT perfect?? i dnt think so..and people always cover their acne with makeups. dont u? dont people wanna look good on cameras? we’re human beings..everybody makes mistakes for god sakes!

  25. 26 damn.right October 6, 2008 at 5:48 pm

    seriously, there’s really nothing wrong with getting tattoos. but man, theirs just look plain wrong! i pity the both of them. especially kangin. i don’t think there’s such a word as “prection”. lol.

  26. 27 Jeiwon October 6, 2008 at 5:50 pm

    For me, it is okay…they’re boys!!! It is cool to have tatoo… Love it.

  27. 28 goyenechea October 6, 2008 at 5:52 pm

    FYI:

    PRECTION and PREDICTALE are not even words.

    goodness.

  28. 30 UHMJUNGHWA4EVER October 6, 2008 at 7:41 pm

    “The “Super Clowns” are back and they are funnier than ever.”

    Good job, that was actually funny XD

  29. 31 rawr October 6, 2008 at 9:01 pm

    cause of depression? lol

  30. 32 suju.dbsk October 6, 2008 at 9:21 pm

    popseoul.. so cruel… yet again.
    i would think u should be feeling pity for them? but no u’re just teasing them. that’s so slack of you. Also many people do have tattos. jaejoong and micky of dbsk have tattoes.. check your facts before you post and maybe also check your conscience.

  31. 33 Izumi October 6, 2008 at 9:43 pm

    @ YOYOYO:

    Lol, trust me, there’s a difference between being snobby and pretending to know a lot verses correcting wrong statements when they are going against science.

    What you said previously is a straight out an ACNE MYTH.

    I respect people’s opinions and by no means do I believe that I’m a know it all in the field. But in this case, it’s like correcting someone when they say that flossing doesn’t help your teeth. It’s been proven in scientific studies many times, regardless of what the popular myth is.

    “Myth #1: Acne is caused by poor hygiene. If you believe this myth, and wash your skin hard and frequently, you can actually make your acne worse. Acne is not caused by dirt or surface skin oils. Although excess oils, dead skin and a day’s accumulation of dust on the skin looks unsightly, they should not be removed by hand scrubbing. Vigorous washing and scrubbing will actually irritate the skin and make acne worse. The best approach to hygiene and acne: Gently wash your face twice a day with a mild soap, pat dry–and use an appropriate acne treatment for the acne.”

    -American Academy of Dermatologists

    “Myth:
    Washing your face more often will help clear up acne

    Reality:
    Facial blemishes are not caused by dirt. Contrary to what you may have seen in commercials, pores do not get blocked from the top down due to “impurities”. Rather, the walls of a pore stick together deep within the skin, starting acne formation. Far from preventing acne, frequent washing may actually irritate pores and cause them to become clogged. A washcloth can add even more irritation. The best bet is to wash very gently with bare hands, and only wash twice a day.”

    -Acne.org

    and I can keep on citing numerous, CREDIBLE information sites.

  34. 36 mary October 7, 2008 at 3:39 am

    haha. Kangin, hope u get that fix. luv uuuu!

  35. 37 sakura14bakura October 7, 2008 at 5:28 am

    even though im a big fan of suju….this is a bit weird to see.
    I fell so sorry for kangin…he will have to suffer for the rest of his life for that stupid mistake O_O and even if he wanted to get it removed it will take months maybe years.
    its not that easy u no
    and shindongs tat looks…weird…no offence

  36. 38 marr October 7, 2008 at 7:09 am

    weird creepy doll images had been my old time favourites.
    that creepy lovely clowns shouldve look better on hots like miyavi not his backne. but “A friend in need is a friend in deed” to all his supportive elfs killer for readily to accept him as one of super fat idol. ;B

  37. 39 hannahlove October 7, 2008 at 9:36 am

    Sigh, what Kangin has is so sad.
    the font of it is awesome and i have my tattoo in the same spot… but that’s horrible that they made a spelling mistake.

  38. 40 JinJin October 7, 2008 at 10:06 am

    Actually tattoos in this biz is not a big deal anymore. They are just not shown. Easy to cover up with makeup and such. Jaejoong and Yoochun of DBSK both have had one for years. Jaejoong’s is on the bottom of his neck. It’s pretty big. About the size of your hand and Yoochun’s I think is either on his lower back or on the front. I think the back. No one really cares anymore as long as you don’t see it.

  39. 42 kimin October 7, 2008 at 11:19 am

    Cholo tats are sweeping Korea? Oh, this can’t be good.

  40. 43 crazz October 7, 2008 at 1:51 pm

    I love them, but I just can’t stand the news.. didn’t expect this from them! and the wrong spelling make it even worse.. poor Kangin.. :(

  41. 44 anna October 7, 2008 at 8:52 pm

    Why the frack would he want to show off a “misspelled” tattoo??? Idiot.

    He’s going to regret it for the rest of his life.

  42. 45 sunnie October 7, 2008 at 11:37 pm

    aww, prection. poor kangin,
    ang shindong! awww, doesn’t look good on them. but anyways, it’s their decision.

  43. 46 soju October 8, 2008 at 2:44 am

    can’t say that i like the ink on either of them, but hey, it’s their bodies and i can respect their decisions.

    but it’s kinda embarrassing to get ink done when you don’t even know what it means. who knows if kang in gave the template to the artist with the misspelled word … or if the artist misspelled it on his/her own?

  44. 47 YUNJAE Love October 8, 2008 at 5:41 am

    Erm i don’t really like the tattoos they had.
    As for Kang In’s misspelled mistake,maybe it was his idea to have the word “prection” on it?
    maybe it has some meaning to him?i dunno..

    and actually there’s no rule that says tattoos are’nt allowed.
    JaeJoong and Yoochun also have tatts and i dun think having tatts will affect their popularity.
    but having too many tatts wont be good.

  45. 48 myra85 October 8, 2008 at 6:14 am

    they are not a clown you ass!! so what if they have tattoos?? its their body not yours! its not like they are showing off or sumthing, the picture of shindong, he wasnt trying to show it. fans found it on their own. what so secret about it.

  46. 49 Minju October 8, 2008 at 7:36 am

    so what if they’ve got tattoos?

    DBSK has em too!

    pffttt!

  47. 50 Vamp Charisma October 8, 2008 at 9:33 am

    Wow, I blame this on G-dragon for the sudden outburst of tatoos. Why the desire? And why something so HUGE? Seriously. If it was you know, sneaky, then fine, but I’m surprised SM would let them do this. You’d think there’d be huge repercussions.

    As for the claims on acne, I have to agree with Izumi that yes, it’s actually nice to see a celebrity be human and not completely air-brushed up for us to see. It makes me feel not so bad. And no, it has nothing to do with whether you wash your skin or not. It’s genetic. Trust me. I wash my skin like crazy, and I have acne attacking me like there’s no tomorrow. O.o Honestly, be educated!
