Ren from NU’EST??? The same one who played the lead in TWO gay musicals? He also loves Lady Gaga (he literally has “Born This Way” tattooed on his chest): See also, this entire thread:

Ren is straight, never saw him showing interest in men

coming back to say i think she did get the smile surgery LMAO. i was wrong!!

Interesting Taemin teaser

Not sure how to interpret this lol

This isn’t a direct response nor a rebuke so I’m not quoting. But as someone who used to be a Chanyeol stan like… 7 years ago, here are my thoughts: Right now I believe Chanyeol's straight. BUT I do think he could be bisexual. Definitely with a preference for women, but I can see him liking men. Just because he's so open minded. Maybe bicurious? But a lot of the stuff fans use as a receipt is reaching. This? As a League player, it doesn't really mean anything. For some years now we had this Pride event where they give you these icons, and if you use them you get the respective flag trail. However, South Korea is SO homophobic that in Korean server the Pride event isn’t a pride event, it’s called SPRING Event and these colors are to represent spring or something lmao. So it’s very possible that Chanyeol and Sehun weren’t aware of the connotation, even if they know the flags from somewhere else. This? When it’s pride month, the pride filter is like the first one in the list of filters so it most likely wasn't intentional. Even if it was intentional, it was also Sehun's live so if anything that would concur to the Sehun queer proofs. This was a thing pushed by Chanbaek shippers. If you watch the whole video you can see he’s not talking about Men x Men. He proceeds to say something along the lines of “Love is not only between a man and a woman. It can be between a mother and son, among friends", that kind of stuff. It astonishes me how many people think he's talking about being the top in sex??? (just see the quote tweets). It's about his position on League of Legends There's top, mid and bottom lane and he plays in top lane, that's it. The laugh could be because he knows there's a double implication in that sentence, or he could also be laughing at something completely unrelated. (P.S.: top lane has the highest concentration of straight men in this game, cough cough) Ok so the context here isn't really about how they act around women or dating, it was about pretending to be uninterested. The MC talks about how many people pretend to be uninterested when they like someone, and Chanyeol says that he doesn't really pretend and he's just straightforward. While this can suggest interest in men, to me it sounds a lot like "Not only in a romantic situation, but if I meet a guy I click with I'll be straightforward and ask to be closer". Tbh this is indeed interesting, so I suggest watching for yourselves and taking your own conclusions. 11:20 forwards. I looked for some proofs that he might like men that I remember seeing back in the day but unfortunately most of it has been buried and it'd take time to find it. Uhh, maybe this?

this taemin comeback has really got everyone fighting. first armys now lyons. because of libido.. a lot of lyon and shawols are squabbling over how ooo were treated with that concept vs taemin doing it etc. ren’s born this way tattoo is also the same as jo kwon’s key also said something like there’s many others like me in the industry like ren obv he could be talking about personality too and stuff but just something i remember

I could be mistaken but i don't think its the first time he's said stuff like that, and this could still easily pass for fanservice so i think he'll be fine lol.

It looked so genuine, then in the end he noticed what he Said and tried to correct It lol I still think the same about taeyong and jaehyun... Jaehyun seems totally more confortable with his attraction to Men, is like he has already accepted that he's attracted to guys and embraced It, but taeyong in the other hand still have not totally accepted It

well that's a very silly comparison to make because ooo's hate for libido came from the choreography and the song title not the fact that it had guys in a river. Also because ooo were a new group most people assumed they didn't have power over the gay/sexual concept and were just doing it for noise marketing whereas Taemin has a more than 10 year career and obviously has a much larger degree of creative control.

Remember when chanyeol wore a "straighthate" written shirt ? He was kinda iconic for this

I like this remake, it's like going back to the first gen with all the remakes that are being done recently, only weird thing is the first scene, that is a big age gap...

2024 SM ARTIST SEASON’S GREETINGS #RedVelvet

I've already posted here the EXO members that think are possibly mlm based on the receipts that i looked for ( emphasis on mlm, not gay ) : sehun, xiumin, chanyeol, kai and suho ( Just my personal assumptions ) But anyone has any opinion about kyungsoo ????? This Man is so mysterious to me, he's a VERY reserved Guy, i can see him being not straight, but he lacks receipts What do you guys think about him ? Anyone has any receipts about him that you want to share ? And of course, i don't rule out the possibility of him being straight, but there's something about him that is so queer, i just can't explain why or what It is

Short, though I still consider the first 2 pictures to be short hair.

"fan: if it's a girls' high school you can't date hyeju: why not~~~!! it's an open korea"

Those who’ve been on this thread since Dec 2020 and watched me lose my damn mind knows what this does/means to me This is like the most Taeyong-ish way to accidentally come-out, he’s sooo …dreamily references three men (who also happen to be his group members) and then goes “oh wait not a man” alajakagsgsfa I hope he’s ok mentally after possibly accidentally outing himself. He’s quite literally the sweetest most endearing adult on earth, I would go to war for him

I’m just so tired of all the nose implants. Like… why…

All of this because of ONE song.

But when I was saying to lock ha ass up yall (speaking in general) was "oh no she needs rehab" THE BITCH IS A FUCKING DRUG DEALER!!!!!!! HELLLLLOOOOO?! Yall want the people shes dealing to, to go to jail cause yall got some kind of group rivalry with these people who dont even fucking know u exist but will overlook the peddler... fucking jokers.

What exactly do you expect people to focus on when trying to determine if someone might identify as LGBT? People share their public contexts(their context was their chain of tweets, whether you agree with them or not), whether they're engaging in fan service or not, in an attempt to gauge their potential orientation because, ultimately, that's the extent of information available, leading to assumptions. Similar to how you're assuming it's all or some part of the idol culture, believing or disbelieving that is entirely your choice. So, why do you think we're here in the first place? The entire purpose is to make assumptions, and stereotypes play a role in that because they form part of the limited information we have, primarily based on how individuals present themselves. If you want to believe that almost everything is carefully calculated and debunk someone's assumptions, that's fine. However, I must inquire once again, what's the objective of this thread? Also this thread isn't going to affect a change of the entirety of the kpop fandom, we don't have that much power lol Edit: I'd like to emphasize, for the sake of simplicity, that there is no definitive right or wrong answer in this matter. Both of you are essentially making assumptions driven by your own perspectives. The other person holds their position due to their specific context, while you don't align with it because you prefer not to be seen as "gullible." Once more, it's important to stress that there's no clear-cut right or wrong answer in this situation, as it all ultimately hinges on what? Assumptions.

I think you’re underestimating how nosy your average people are lol Topics like romance and sex attract attention. I know for myself if any news of idols dating comes out I am interested to know more, even if I don’t know or care about the idol. I don’t think this is world breaking news either. Like it’s well known that people are interested in these things which is why either topic can be found so much in all kinds of media. I don’t think you’re necessary wrong but your opinion feels too absolute to me, theres more than one side to it.

The way you just ignored the last part of my answer... Really ? When I said myself multiple times that this thread is too focused on stereotypes and ignores male idols who don't fit them ? And there's a difference between the people who dismissed here some male idols only because they're traditionnally masculine (like RM or Minho or L from Infinite) and dismissing male idols who had het fuckboy scandals or dudebros who are trying to turn their image around after acting borderline homophobic. What context did they offer ? Most of that thread about Chanyeol was indeed him pandering to fans, especially to fanboys. Sorry if I'm not a gullible stan who will take everything those idols say as the gospel when they're doing their job. I guess now we'll also have to believe they're 100% genuine when they act lovey-dovey with their bandmates during concerts or that they aren't lying when they say they only love their fans and don't have the time to date or that they're actually singing live in music shows.

Because he doesn't conform to the gay stereotypes. I find it difficult to grasp some of the posts at times. We may not always reach a consensus on identifying someone's sexual orientation, given that our only reference points are public information and how individuals present themselves. It essentially boils down to making assumptions. The individual above did offer some context to support their belief about the person's potential LGBTQ+ status, but another person dismissed it as mere nonsense and dismissed it as pandering to fans and adhering to the usual 'idol ecosystem.' It's almost like a recurring cycle of similar opinions all the time lol

Looks like Holland and Mark Tuan might be friends

I really don't understand why there are still people who think Chanyeol isn't straight. Like his ships are all dead at this point so it can't be shippers and he just looks and acts like a typical straight guy. For TXT, I always go back and forth with them but I think they're straighter than most MOAs believe aside from Soobin. I can't forget those rumors from March/April. And for NCT sorry but there's no way that Renjun and Jaemin are straighter than Johnny and Taeil. Johnny and Taeil are literally the two with Mahae that keep 127 from being full NCT MLM lol.

I'm sorry but the irony of calling someone an > LGBTQ+ artist < and then dropping the "rumoured to be bi" in the next sentence I can't Some kpop fans are so stuck in this bubble they've lost touch with reality. He probs is queer, I thought so since he had drag queens in his mv a few years back, but rumours and ~vibes~ doesn't make someone an LGBTQ+ artist omfg listen to Ethel Cain or smth

You look amazing, Lee Chaeyeon!

Her eyes started to look like Park Bom's and not in a good way. I hope it's just make up and bad editing
