lgbtxt

proof? lmao. i don't buy it.

love that for her tbh, if i had to do a livestream after a whole day of work i'd be over it too

Jaywon is a really iffy topic IMO bcs in a couple months Jay will turn 20 and Jungwon ('04) is and will be a minor in Korea until 2023 rolls around ..... to me, everything they do comes off as brotherly and i'd sure hope Jay & Jungwon intend it that way because it's just kinda weird otherwise. the teens shipping them don't get that because they're young themselves but coming from the perspective of someone Jay's age, a romantic relationship with a kid Jungwon's age is unthinkable. don't be fooled by their concept either. HYBE knows what they're doing. queerbaiting is built into the brand, BTS's lore centers around it, TXT thrives on it. all kpop companies are incredibly aware of their audience, what sells, and what keeps attention. if fans didn't like it, they wouldn't be doing it. that's not to say every cute moment btwn idols is an orchestrated company decision, but if you feel like a ship is suddenly being pushed that's because it is. don't kid yourself.

fwiw the linked video is private now. here’s what i think they were referencing tho? Minhyuk bows to Renjun at the end but i’m not seeing much more than that. they both fruity tho (and to embed tweets just copy the URL link and paste it and it’ll do it itself <33)

unnecessary bcs like y'all get it but for funsies here u go there's some of him talking abt his mutuals in there bcs that's just not how str8 teenage boys talk about their female friends lmao

Jimin was his bias so he said a lot of things about him lol you'd have to be more specific. none of it was very straight tho yeah ngl i scrolled through his entire cc before it was deleted and screenshot the interesting bits so yeah u can trust me i say bi bcs of the "y'all wouldn't believe me if i said my sexuality" thing. bcs i feel like he would've known at the time his oomfs would assume he's gay? so i took it as him alluding to being het/bi instead. but it could be the other way round tbf. i haven't seen him show attraction to women post debut lmao

well yeah Keeho didn't straight up say he's LGBT, that's why i said borderline. it's just like a glass closet thing. he joked about being "heterosexual " (literally his words lmao) and liking girls for sure and there could've been truth to that, he also thirsted over guys, said he tried to get a sugar daddy/mommy, and had a BTS OTP. another time when asked his sexuality he said "yall wouldn't believe me if i said it tea" which ... make of that what you will idk. you def have to remember he was 15 at the time so i'm sure there's a lot of stuff he said just to be funny or to get attention but i think if the average person saw his curiouscat they'd assume he's queer so that's why i said what i said. personally, all things considered, i think he's bi.

ik this isn't the point of ur post but man keeho is a whole nother story. some of the stuff he said on his curiouscat was borderline outing, he shipped BTS and everything

really?? lol i feel like soobin's always attached to kai at the hip. maybe i'm just blind to his and yeonjun's shenanigans

The Boyz are just now getting the recognition they’ve always deserved so i sure hope they don’t get put on the back burner for this new group

idk, i'm quite firmly in the queer Felix camp but i'm not convinced by any of his shipping receipts. he has the biggest heart in the world & he's clearly v sentimental about his friendships so i think yes, for Felix, it is normal for him to talk like that. "normal" in the sense that it doesn't imply romantic feelings IMO, not in the sense that he's straight period. ykwm? tbh most of Felix's ship moments come from him and not the other person he's being shipped with. smthg to think about

i think you make a great point IMO it really just depends. i'm not disagreeing, just expanding as i have some thoughts. there's definitely queer idols like Wonho who shy away from on-camera skinship, but even in his same (former) group you have Minhyuk, and while i don't have a hard opinion on him many think he's gay, and he'll totally ramp up the skinship to get a laugh or to get on Monsta X's nerves. also, i think there's gotta be some idols (probably younger) who use the heteronormative guise of fanservice to experiment safely and relatively judgement free. Dongju has given me these vibes, at least early on in ONEUS's career. and maybe some dudes just be lonely and don't get the chance to hold hands with a hot guy every day yknow damn whichever way tho, yeah i wouldn't use skinship/fanservice as a receipt on it's own. you have to look at everything in context to get a better picture.

omfg that is NOT the reunion i want

bruh i cannottt imagine seeing headlines of my faves suing each other one day. pour one out for APRIL stans

could you elaborate on this? the way it's written it sounds like you're saying those fandoms would be accepting of their idols being LGBT? which i honestly don't think can be true. fans from progressive countries seem to forget that there's far more fans than them with less than stellar views. unless you just mean those fandoms are safer for LGBT fans. in that case, sure i guess. depends on your circle tbh

omg idk if this has been discussed in this thread bcs it's not directly kpop buttttt a contestant from the survival show World Klass that formed TO1 is nonbinary and goes by any pronouns this isn't a new development, months ago they had "he/they" in their bio before and now look where we are. anyway i think that's really cool and they're really funny and stunning y'all should check their socials and anticipate the future music releases~

i'm gonna go ahead and say yes (??). he's always looked kind of unnatural tbh so here's some comparisons: vs. vs. it looks to me like he lost his baby fat & his neck got thicker when he bulked up a little, making his head look even smaller than usual. oh and his nose job is clear as day but, that's a different story.

assuming they keep this project up, this feels like the akgae pandering that was always going to be inevitable and necessary for NCT if they continue to grow. i'm here for it tho

Korean sentences are really ridiculous

how is that the only part you read

what i do, and what i usually see other people do, is only spoiler if including lots of media at once (multiple videos/tweets/images) or if talking about something not particularly relevant to the thread topic. but u can do whatever you want ofc, take up the whole thread baby the world is ur oyster

bruh .. i don't think anything anyone can say will actually get thru to u BUT ........ i would love to know how old you are because like yeah, 25 yr old men can act like that. adults can indeed like children's media, act cute, and whatever, and still enjoy mature media and yknow .. still be an adult. even following your logic for the submissive thing, how would a dude being into dom/sub dynamics (regardless of which end he falls on) make him more pure the way you're trying to frame him liking this manga as evidence of his sexuality is so gross tbh. if he's reading a manga because the r*pe scenes are sexually gratifying to him that's a much bigger issue than him being straight. so it's really entirely irrelevant to this thread. beserk is a very popular manga and it's known for being messed up & gruesome. whether you'd like to believe it or not, Taeyong is allowed to enjoy dark media with the same morbid curiosity that everyone does without it being spank bank material ... vom. personally i could never read something like berserk, but i do consume media within which people are stalked, cheated on, abused, murdered, whatever etc. does that mean i want to do those things or condone it? of course not! fiction is fiction for a reason. Taeyong enjoying this manga means literally nothing in regards to his sexuality or anything about him as a person besides the fact that he's a freaky little guy. maybe if you liked him for more than just him being the uwu bubu submissive babyman of ur dreams, you'd know that. and my god, don't put the trigger warning AFTER you've already described the r*pe scenes. put it before. jesus fucking christ.

seems like there's so many more BL dramas with idols coming out these days!! selfishly that's pretty exciting if i say so myself. i wonder if this says anything about how Korea's views are shifting or if it'll help at all to change young people's views at least. not that it's amazing representation, but better than nothing i suppose.

sunoo's nose job is so well done it amazes me. i'd never know he had anything done just by looking at him!!

"wokescold"?? girl what side of 4chan did u come from the members literally said they had a hand in this comeback but sure they have 0 control
