This dude is... dead??

I have been trying to figure out how tf Guwon got his tattoos during an apocalypse where tattoo artists/ supplies would obviously be on the bottom of the priority list for survival, it was really bugging me.
I think I might be dumb bc I didn't consider until recently that he's so Frankenstein's monster coded with his neck stitches (DUH) that it's probably not tattoos. His sleeves were still frustrating me because I thought they could have been part of the Frankenstein get up, just from a black person's corpse instead of a Korean's, but the colour just doesn't fit because his arms are literally jet black with no undertone, plus there are no visible stitches attaching them to his body. Him being ice cold just cemented it for me. What if it's necrosis?? Tissue death but not brain death; his head seems to be the only places with the stitch marks so far, what if they somehow attached a living person's head to a dead body to reanimate it somehow?? What if this entire weird town is a big experiment and the residents are monitoring this experiment?? Idk if I am being delulu (I probably am) but I need answers NOW. It's too peaceful for an apocalypse so I feel like there has to be something sinister going on in the background, I don't trust like that

    Babes love the theories but people CAN tell when smth is necrotic. Also simpler answers is he got the tattoos before and just when the world fell apart. It was only a few years back

    Oh I thought it was much longer lol oops! Didn't feel tooooo ridiculously outlandish in my head though until you said something, due to this being a fantasy bl where literal zombies exist
