Who do you think is a lesbian in kpop?
reiichi replied to Pyo Hyemi's topic in Celebrity News & Gossip
- The person who went too far was the one calling people in the gay thread pedophiles, for discussing the orientation of minors. Of course the thread reacted strongly to the accusation. - Someone (mod or admin ?) deleted the whole conversation except the offensive post calling us pedophiles. - After some more outrage an admin posted in the thread calling us perverted because we were sexualizing minors by discussing their (non-straight) orientation and crushes. And locked the thread (which didn't last long but still). - The thread called that admin out for the obvious homophobia and asked for the rest of the admin team to choose their stance. Which lead to this statement. Not homophobic but still decided because one of the admins doesn't seem to understand the difference between discussing sexual orientation, and sexualizing. -
Which male idols do you think are gay?

Well if you're going to forbid us to talk about underage idols here, do the same in the shipping threads ? Because if there are people speculating wildly, that's in the shipping threads. -

You were implying that the reason why we shouldn't discuss underage idols in this thread is that it could derail into discussing sex. I was just saying that it NEVER happens. -

I've literally never seen anybody talk about sexual experiences or practices in this thread, and I've been following it for months. We're mostly having conversations about who might be gay in the kpop industry, based on their behavior and statements. People who talk about their own experiences don't talk about sex, but about the social repercussions of being gay. -
Don't be so pessimistic. Jaehwan happened.

I haven't watched the videos yet (am at work) but honestly I'm already rooting for him because of the height, smol is my weakness (obviously I rooted for Taehyun and Nako during the previous seasons).

Honestly ? Daewhi... he's like, the most girly male idol I've ever seen. -

I suggest you watch the video dkdktv made about the SOPA scandal before saying that, because if you had watched it you would know that it's pretty much resolved. There was a very quick response coming from the local education authorities, they made an investigation, reported to the police about the forced labor + other things the principal and his wife did with the school's money. And both have been demoted from their positions already so they can't do anything anymore. -
For the same reason they sent Gyuri on PD48 : exposure. Fromis_9 had a real popularity boost after she went.

[iQIYI] Qing Chun You Ni (Idol Producer S2) Thread **EP 4 SUBBED OUT!**
reiichi replied to singnotes's topic in Variety Shows
Welp, I guess I'm done watching the show. I'm a few episodes late already, looks like it's not worth catching up. -
Tour maybe ? And honestly Japanese promotions aren't half as intensive as Korean ones, so a Japanese debut would be less tiring than a Korean comeback.

My post originally ended with (I wanna read that Vernon/Minghao fic) but I decided to delete it because I didn't want to cheapen my post with something shippy. -

And yet the couple-y photos are on Seungkwan's personal instagram, not on the group's account. Not saying they're a real couple (maybe they're trolling us), but more, they're the ones who are pushing it, not the company. Plus the fact that they had way more skinship before debut, as if Pledis asked them to tone it down. -
Maybe availability ? With the short notice there's a chance that all the venues with the right size were already booked, and big venues in LA are bound to be much more expensive than in smaller cities, not worth taking the risk of not selling out.

Don't hope too much. With the competition they'd need to hit top spots in digital charts to even get a nomination.

I think you're the overly sensitive one here, most people understood it as a strongly worded 'very weird', not an insult. -

I'd agree that gaydar works when you're meeting someone IRL, however a few overly edited videos aren't enough to judge body language (because 'gaydar' is basically a specialized reading of body language, nothing more). -
Mh Energetic was already used last year in position eval so I wouldn't be so sure.

At this point we only have rumors, and BigHit being involved hasn't been confirmed officially anyway.

Honestly Yanjun's public persona that drove him up in the IP ranking had two big components : - flirting with everything that moves (or even doesn't, damn that was hilarious) - lame jokes so I can easily see both of these as fanservice. You'll have to be more convincing than that ;) -

Also, people arguing that idols say and do things that we see as gay, but they themselves are pure souls that don't see it that way. Idols are perfectly aware that what they do as fanservice comes across as gay, They know that shipping is a big part of fan culture, and companies encourage skinship because shipping is like fandom fuel. -

Apparently it's his bedroom, he just has an open closet in it. -

Quanzhe rose from F to B though, and with the very small number of As last year it's quite impressive.
