SEVENTEEN’s Joshua Personally Addresses His Recently-Revealed Rib Tattoo
SEVENTEEN‘s Joshua recently revealed his tattoo during the Singapore stop of the group’s 2025 world tour, SEVENTEEN RIGHT HERE. He wore a sleeveless singlet under his top. When he removed the outer layer, fans got a glimpse of his new tattoo.

Fans quickly found that it was a symbol representing Gemini.

The minimalistic design suited him perfectly.

Joshua confirmed that it was a Gemini sign, meant to represent the group’s debut date on May 26. He said that he got it done a long time ago!
Yes, I have one. It is a gemini for our debut date. I wanted to get it somewhere that was not visible. That’s our debut date. I got it done a long time ago.

Although fans had previously wondered if he had wanted to keep the tattoo private, Joshua’s personal address of the matter put those worries to rest!
