Additionally, Ahgases reminded BTS fans that Jungkook, BamBam, and Yugyeom have friendship tattoos as well, showcasing their solid friendship with each other. For those uninitiated, the trio has the word 'Truth' tattooed on their forearms.☆@pradachainzthey literally have seven in their group name, what else were they meant to get tatted, a 20? twitter.com/oneahgasegot7/…ONE AHGASE GOT7@OneAhgaseGOT7“2/7” “Who’s next?” MarkBam shows off their new “7” tattoo on Instagram 🖤#GOT7 @GOT7 @marktuan @BamBam1A #MarkTuan #Bambam4122294“2/7” “Who’s next?” MarkBam shows off their new “7” tattoo on Instagram 🖤#GOT7 @GOT7 @marktuan @BamBam1A #MarkTuan #Bambam https://t.co/gU2fSXM6xJthey literally have seven in their group name, what else were they meant to get tatted, a 20? 😭 twitter.com/oneahgasegot7/…bb.@kunpbam1athey genuinely think mark and bambam went to the tattoo artist and showed them their favs NUMBER 7 tattoo??? like let’s be serious for a bit here 123they genuinely think mark and bambam went to the tattoo artist and showed them their favs NUMBER 7 tattoo??? like let’s be serious for a bit here 😭😭😭vic@sIayrinaalso how are y’all mad at mark and bambam but not at people getting the exact same tattoos that jungkook has??? 3also how are y’all mad at mark and bambam but not at people getting the exact same tattoos that jungkook has??? 😭 https://t.co/7JA47uj71Wp💤@stillwithujk8@7even4ever1 Tattoo artist uploaded all of theirs together so they got it together & he didn't copied it@7even4ever1 Tattoo artist uploaded all of theirs together so they got it together & he didn't copied it https://t.co/o59RMeEaJHPri ❀ ⁷ ☾@vvaehskDamn some armys really pressed about Mark & Bambam’s 7 tattoos like they’re literally called GOT7 what should their tattoo be? 8? 2Damn some armys really pressed about Mark & Bambam’s 7 tattoos like they’re literally called GOT7 what should their tattoo be? 8? 😭😭cj 🫰🏽@mylifeascjIt’s really annoying seeing that fandom being upset over bambam and mark’s “7” tattoo.

Ahgases also praised Mark for having a matching tattoo with each of the group's maknae members - the 'Truth' tattoo with Yugyeom and the number 7 tattoo with BamBam.With Mark and BamBam getting themselves inked, it is expected that in due course of time, the other five members will get themselves tattooed as well. Youngjae responded to Mark and BamBam's post by replying that he will get a tattoo only if they are willing to pay for it, earning laughs from fans.𝑗𝑢𝑣𝑦@sevendless230516 Youngjae 🫧: If Mark hyung or BamBam gives me money, I’ll do the 7 tattoo~~: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ: There was no promise, but it suddenly became a “who’s next” (...?) thing: Please do it Mark hyung~~~ 🫶🏼: No, Bam-ah do it, do it for your hyung28341268230516 Youngjae 🫧🌙: If Mark hyung or BamBam gives me money, I’ll do the 7 tattoo~~🌙: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ🌙: There was no promise, but it suddenly became a “who’s next” (...?) thing🌙: Please do it Mark hyung~~~ 🫶🏼🌙: No, Bam-ah do it, do it for your hyung😂Previously, the members had gotten friendship necklaces made in 2017, with the custom-made slogan "seven or never."What are the members up to these days?seenie@def7jpgqrts make sure y’all stream GOT7’s latest EP called GOT7, which is after their name, GOT7, made for their fandom named IGOT7. https://t.co/wwVC2LYTSQ twitter.com/oneahgasegot7/…ONE AHGASE GOT7@OneAhgaseGOT7“2/7” “Who’s next?” MarkBam shows off their new “7” tattoo on Instagram 🖤#GOT7 @GOT7 @marktuan @BamBam1A #MarkTuan #Bambam36481241“2/7” “Who’s next?” MarkBam shows off their new “7” tattoo on Instagram 🖤#GOT7 @GOT7 @marktuan @BamBam1A #MarkTuan #Bambam https://t.co/gU2fSXM6xJqrts make sure y’all stream GOT7’s latest EP called GOT7, which is after their name, GOT7, made for their fandom named IGOT7. https://t.co/wwVC2LYTSQ twitter.com/oneahgasegot7/…Ever since GOT7 members left JYP Entertainment in 2021, the members have been thriving in their solo careers, under the different agencies they are signed with.
