he is hot!!!
but his tatto is kinda weird. in chinese the character means "luck" which is a very lucky word. we put it down on a piece of red paper and post it on the doors during chinese new year. but if you put it on your body, it looks totally corny and stupid.
i believe nobody in the us will put "merry christmas" or "happy new year"on his body as a tatto
Well in the US, we just go for the meaning of the word. Luck is a nice message and may represent something to the individual. Generally chinese and japanese words don't mean anything much to us, so getting them as a tattoo is a beautiful gesture. I can understand how it would be weird to you, since you read the language fluently and often. It's just different view points and customs.
