I don’t think there’s a definitive answer. Troye Sivan was/is very popular in korea, blue neighbourhood in particular had a lot of success there and I believe there’s a lot of koreans that casually listen to his music without knowing that he is gay. There’s a lot of idols who like Troye, if they talk about his music videos or talk about him often I usually at least think they’re an ally. I do know several straight guys who enjoy Troye’s music. Of course listening/talking abt Troye could be an indicator that the idol is gay, or it could not be. The same thing goes with the whole bisexual lightning thing. Maybe they’re trying to hint at their sexuality, or they just chose a pretty colour combination (that is also very common). Listening to Troye or using bisexual lightning is usually not enough for me to draw any conclusions about an idol.

considering that there's decent amount of Korean Troye listeners who were absolutely freaked out by the Rush mv and every article about Sam Smith gets a 'hul..he's gay???' comment I don't think so. If they seem to be a really big fan maybe but just recommending a few songs seems par for the course for most k-idols.

I don't think it's about BTS being disliked in the thread because the reactions are mostly positive when the posts are about Jimin and Suga and they used to be positive about V too. It's more about what you pointed out in your second paragraph. Like I genuinely never saw anyone thinking Jungkook is anything but straight unless they're a hidden Jikooker or Vkooker. You can't blame people for being annoyed at the Jungkook posts when the "evidence" is random stuff like color lighting or interactions with his bandmates that are overanalyzed by delusional shippers. Meanwhile the guy is out here being the only BTS member who had a serious dating rumor with a woman before the V/Jennie leaks and the only one who chose to explicitly have a female love interest in his solo debut MV. Not necesserely. Troye Sivan's music is actually quite popular in Korea. I can only speak for the idols I follow but for me Taehyun saying that he loved the Blue Neighbourhood trilogy or Chenle and Jisung doing a cover of Youth don't mean anything more than appreciation for his songs.

I think Anton from riize is a bit suspect

Yeah I personally don't think either that Jungkook is anything but straight, at best some kind of bi-curious. I also very much agree that it is in fact annoying when shippers bring up their ''proof'' as a real thing. I rather meant that a few times in the past when I tried to start serious conversations, for example, the whole Namjoon boyfriend thing, then some people were visibly upset at that and even complained on the threat about it. I do understand that most conversations about BTS have been rehashed at this point, though I am also interested in what other people might think or what receipts (what I didn't know of yet) they have.

It wasn't borrowed money, which is why she won the case. The money included rent, tuition, telecommunications etc. The claim about being paid back when Nayeon debuts is bs because she wasn't even a trainee for the first 6 years and her mother was against her auditioning.

Tweets won’t embed for me, so it’s back to good ol’ YouTube. Anyway…Taeyong lol

i liked siren but idk if that’s even a real song because it was only 1 minute performance dance so.. and get a guitar is alright but the comments were calling it disney and tbf i could see it being like a chad (troy’s bff) solo from hsm then memories i completely forgot how it sounds like 8turn jaeyun there’s so many new groups though. im probably forgetting some i’ve thought about before

I still haven't checked anything on riize, not even the songs

are there any new people that you've been suspecting lately? it's always the same topic here, the same fights... I don't have anyone in mind

I partly agree with you. For one, color schemes having meaning in this thread have always been a sensitive and controversial topic, no sensible discussion ever comes about when someone starts bringing up bi flag colors, rainbows etc. having a special meaning. my guess why it is quite unpopular to bring up Jungkook specifically on this thread is because he is at the center of two massive ships and some people try to use the ships to ''prove'' that he is queer. Which feels, ingenuine. Most people box all Jungkook's actions that could be seen queer, as being Gen Z. I think if you combine the topic of Jungkook with the vagueness of flags and perhaps the Bi-visibilty week (which I also think is a rather western-centric thing, though I could be wrong) then you get quite a negative reaction. I do agree with you on the part that bts gets unnecessarily disliked on here, there's times I have noticed people seem annoyed when they get brought up.

Do you Guys think that If a male idol listens to troye Sivan It can be an indicator that he's queer himself ? I haven't seen a single straight Guy that genuinely listens to troye sivan's music

the his man print it’s great to see more of this

12 yrs is not a loan…you were a father supporting your child atp…

i hope they don't scrap the 3rd album they announced already

well some of the members are really young, so it's not terrible in my eyes yg should have had them open for blackpink at some of the tour stops to drum up interest after the survival show aired

the US and Uk...bitter exes to lovers arc... or would that be incest omg

Call me a clown but I would love for someone from SNSD to join RV as a member and for the group to continue on as a new quartet.

Today's idol: Nana

On September 19, it was reported that TWICE’s Nayeon won a lawsuit against her mother’s ex-boyfriend (A). According to reports, “A” had sued Nayeon, asking to be repaid ₩600 million KRW (about $454,000 USD) that he alleges he loaned to the idol’s mother. Reports state that on this day, the courts acknowledged that “A” had given ₩500 million KRW (about $378,000 USD) to Nayeon’s mother over 12 years but ruled there wasn’t enough evidence to show that money was a loan. Previously, “A” sued Nayeon and her mother in January. At the time, “A” claimed that Nayeon’s mother promised to pay back the money if Nayeon debuted, but that she didn’t keep her promise. I had loaned them money for living expenses because Nayeon’s mother had asked for it. I was promised that when Nayeon, who at the time was a trainee, debuts, she would pay me back, but they didn’t keep her promise. — “A” Source

^Im cackling cause I can't see the list but that has to be Ring Ding Dong. Mine is Red Flavor (that blegh blegh blegh blegh) makes me want to throw daggers. But I do love the song's Summer feel. Anyway, blegh would definitely have me up and bitching.

BABEYYYYYYYYYYYYY

What does Nayeon have to do with whatever deal her mom and the scumbag made, if there ever was one? I’m tired of these debtors and loaners putting all their debts on children/offspring who have nothing to do with whatever happened. Greedy people through and through. I remember there was a case not too long ago with a group of people suing Wonder Girls’ YeEun for money her estranged father stole. She didn’t have to pay them either. I know people want their money back but keep it between the parties that made these deals in the first place.

Watched that natalia grace case documentary and, unsurprisingly, people suck justice was not served, i fear that Michael man needs better acting lessons. He isn't filming a telenovela that whole family is a disgrace the neighbors were a mess as well tsk tsk tsk

This is just silly fun but why am i not surprised that Soobin is Zhang Hao's favorite TXT member (and that he likes TXT), lol wbk that Soobin is the most popular member with gay men in korea so it's just funny at this point (and not zhang hao saying that he especially liked Soobin during game caterers which was basically the soobin simp olympics for male idols lol) Gay recognizes gay and all that

Key listed his favorite dongsaengs in his interview with Bambam and said 1. Renjun because he reminds Key of his younger self 2. Seo Bum-june 3. Ten 4. Bambam because he was there and asked to be 4th 5. Chenle because he'd get pouty if not mentioned edit: the clown? I'm literally just saying what he said in the video. Obviously being friends with a gay person doesn't automatically make someone gay but it's definitely more relevant than eye contact or skinship.

Completely random thought: Zhang Hao is a fem top. idk why I felt compelled to share that with y’all, but there it is.

Apparently they announced last minute that only the top two girls would be decided by fan votes and the rest would be chosen by the judges/company and they made it so that kvotes counted for 70% and then had an additional round of live voting that only koreans could participate in (despite the show having basically no buzz over there) which meant that the lineup was guaranteed to have the visual members that the kfans liked and than whatever the company wanted (which was other teenage visuals/dancers). Honestly it sounds like they would have been better off not doing a survival and just releasing a predebut show since they clearly had a vision from the beginning that did not match what the audience ended up seeing.

Talking about bisexual day,what do you think about this from Ren On September 23rd 2018,when Nuest went to perform in HK Ren made this post,notice the unicorn and the caption twitter.com/Melodia_Muse/status/1043866524375601153
