  1. funny thing is... if this were a female idol, this forum would be defending the action to hell and back.... His apology seems legit, although I don't think he needed to apologize to begin with. Fans have no right to grab people. Contrary to what he said, he isn't a product for others' hands to get on. Anyway, as mentioned a few times, this will blow over and won't affect his career whatsoever.
  2. Oh and no this doesn't sound illogical. Usually if one is gay though, there's a good chance the other is too. Not together of course. That's just fans being stupid. 99% is a little strong don't you think? Anyway, no. He never had an actual rumor with Hyungsik. At least, not one that I know of. They're very close friends and fans joked, started shipping them together. It wasn't even close to the level of the GunheexHeechul rumors, and those haven't even really become major rumors (probably because it's so obvious that it's boring to speculate about xD)). But yeah.... I've never heard of any RyeowookxHyungsik rumors. I mean I think they'd be cute, but there's never been much more than just an affectionate hyung-dongsaeng relationship from what I could see.
  3. Bless you child. Yes to every word of this, hun.
  4. Eh that's a possibility too. Heck, I mean, anything's a possibility really xD Either way, I don't think he's into a lot of physical touch. However, that doesn't mean he doesn't find people physically attractive so yeah.... Yeah, thats kinda the feeling I got. Like, I never really thought about it that much but someone asked me if I thought he was gay and I realized I couldn't lean in either direction for him. Hm, seems interesting. I don't know. I'm just surprised I haven't heard more about it but it could be legit. We may never know~ Thanks for the link though. ^^ Hm, I think that may be the case for a few but it sounds like a minority. I just know that whenever someone talks about their idol not being gay, it tends to be the same fans who read all the youxbias fics and like those scenarios of how 'oppa' would act on a date with 'you'. It's just what I've seen so in no way is it statistical evidence. I agree though that we shouldn't generalize and say that it is the case for 'all' of the fangirls who don't want their bias to be gay. I think it could also have to do with what you said. Furthermore, a lot of the fans are still very young and have been raised in religious homes where being gay is the same as being evil.
  5. It's just a thought that sorta stuck with me. I've never seen him as showing anything that looked like genuine attraction to males or females . I agree with most of what you said. I'm too lazy to go into a lengthy discussion about statistics, but I definitely agree that people fail to realize that these statistics are real. And I also implied bisexual, pansexual, asexual, etc. when I said 'not straight'. As for people on this forum being homophobic, I guess I mean it more in the literal sense. I feel like a lot of people are afraid of homosexuality. It's like 'oh, my bias can't be gay' because that means the person I look up to is different than I am. I don't know how to explain it. @_@ I'm sorry. Yeah, exactly. I mean, maybe he's just a more reserved person about those things, but it's just an odd hunch I've had. Besides, I've read some studies that support the claim that Asia has a higher percentage of asexuality compared to the rest of the world, so I'm sure a few idols are actually asexual as well. I think by 'intimacy' they meant sexual intimacy, and physical touch.
  6. Imma have to start following this kid. I'm starting to think that's true. Or, homophobes. I've never heard that rumor :/ I've mentioned before that I think Wook is asexual, but I wouldn't be surprised if he swung in either direction, or both. Do you still have the link to that site and translation?
  7. I agree so much with this you have no idea. People get mad because they think that everyone in this thread wants their oppar to be gay so they don't end up with another girl. Or they want the idol to be gay because they themselves are a gay male. I'm a lesbian so neither of these fit me, and it realllllly irks me that people can't see... maybe it's just common sense to assume that about 1/10-20 male kpop idols is probably not straight. Gonna hold back from the long rant but yeah this is just something I totally agree with and needed to say so.
  8. Actually I just stumbled across something and was about to mention that. Apparently that's not the first time Mnet has asked questions along those lines. I mean, I wouldn't doubt that people know if he's gay. And the information about the girl is new (yet obviously suspect). Thanks for answering me though. ^^
  9. waut wait what I haven't been a fan of his for long at all. So, like... what do you mean he has gay rumors in Korea? I mean I totally believe considering the way he carries himself. However, I still think Sungjong is more effeminate in his actions. (Like I said, I think he's asexual though.) Still, you've got my attention. What are these rumors that you are referring to?
  10. This so much actually. I mean I kinda think Sungjong might be asexual if I'm being honest. However, I wouldn't be surprised if he was gay. For some reason, Myungsoo and Woohyun have always made me double-take more often than Sungjong, despite the latter's more stereotypically feminine mannerisms that everyone points out. I'm usually skeptical about believing half a group is gay, but those three.... PING PING PING. Wow! Okay, I actually really agree with this and am surprised someone else thinks the same way. Totally thought people would call foul if I ever brought it up. Like you said, I don't think he really cares much.
  11. It's not just Korea that thinks that way. That's why there's that whole 'lesbian in college' stereotype in the U.S. People assume that it's just just kids pushing boundaries. Which, yes, sometimes it can be that. However, that's really harmful in the end to just throw that on everyone .__. - Also.... so Heechul says he likes 'girls' with nice legs. I can't help but think of Gunhee in those short shorts and always getting caught in just his underwear. I wonder if Heechul makes him walk around without pants so he can stare at his legs all the time. @_@ - As for this Soohyun/Jokwon thing... the more I read about it, the more I hope they will secretly end up together one day. TT If this has happened before, I'm wondering if there will be another like this one in the future. I hope that whoever is involved (if indeed the scandal is true) will be people capable of dealing with all of the crap that comes with that. However, I wonder if Korea has somewhat matured on this topic since then. I feel like if that were to come out now, there would be a much more mixed reaction considering how much more spotlight the issue of equal treatment for LGBT individuals has gotten in the past few years.
  12. It's quite ridiculous how many times a person's feelings for someone of the same sex has been brushed off as just that. - And wow those texts though.... and whoah i just looked up stuff about that scandal. I thought you guys were exaggerating by mentioning that it was a rumor but apparently it was actually something that caught people's attention. As in... it got so bad that they actually addressed it (well Jo Kwon did sort of). But yeah... I've never been more convinced of a gay rumor in my life. That's just...
  13. And here's the trans for that instagram update: rofl this sounds like some sort of inside joke. I don't know why but it really amuse me. I feel like Gunhee has indeed been there for the filmings and is probably just as close to Puff as Heechul is now. XD -- and oh my god gunhee's video
  14. I'm assuming she knows. She's a Taiwanese pop idol and people here tend be much less in denial about that kind of stuff. So, if Heechul and Gunhee didn't come out and say it to her directly, she probably guessed as much. However, I'm assuming she's professional and came into the show without any expectations toward her filming partner anyway.
  15. I mean, I don't care if he's on the show really. I just find it too awkward to watch. It's mostly that I really don't want to hear some of the ignorant crap that will come from fans after this. But no I 100% agree about him being a bit too strange. Like you said 'pushing it'. I don't know what his deal is, but it's almost like he's trying to make a scene. I have no idea what scene it is though. Yeah, I mean, I should be used to the level of ignorance on this forum by now, but it never ceases to amaze me how people think they can excuse anyone's differing opinion with 'oh you just think that way because you're a fangirl/fanboy who doesn't want them with someone else'.
  16. I'm so dead at this. That's not even delulu, it's just flat out incorrect. And I love how her reason for people being straight was that they were going on WGM... wasn't Jokwon on WGM too? -- And this whole 'let's have a guess who's straight in kpop thread' thing is really getting on my nerves more than it should. but yeah totally cringing at Heechul's pics for this WGM thing... Considering Gunhee went with Heechul for that trip they took for the filming, I'm assuming Puff knows what is going on and is just putting up face for everyone. Kinda hope their ratings suck and it ends quickly though because everything looks too awkward to even be funny.
  17. The bolded part is kind of what I was trying to say too xD Yeah. Although idols obviously play up an image, fans watch them quite closely and can often see around that image after a while. It's not really that hard to tell the difference between fanservice and genuine actions, especially after following them for a while. Yeah, Donghae's heart is the biggest part of him. He's too loving to really dislike anyone for something that doesn't harm others.
  18. Rofl it's alright. No need to say sorry for your opinions anyway. Besides, a lot of people think that way about Sungmin because of his pretty face and affection toward cute things so you wouldn't have been the first. I really don't follow Jaejoong or Yunho enough to give an opinion but both are a hot topic here (especially Jaejoong from what I've seen). As for Donghae, I find it hard to believe he is at either end of the spectrum. A lot of people think his childish personality is all an act, but from what I've seen over the years, he is indeed that incredibly immune to the idea that there are certain things people expect of others. I don't think he understands that some people look down on others for what they are attracted to. I mean he probably knows it happens but doesn't understand how or why that could be something to garner hate. However, I must point out that he is also really religious. So, there is a possibility that he's been indoctrinated with certain ideas about sex. I dunno. I will never forget them mentioning how he'd kissed Yunho and he said he really thought Yunho had the best lips. (like what) Donghae is one of the strangest people I know of though so I really have no idea what's going on in that head of his. See above but yeah... I always forget about his friendship with Sehun. Actually, I've heard that Sehun really looks up to Donghae (which is funny because he's a five-year-old) and maybe if they've talked about things like that then Sehun feels really comfortable around Donghae. As I've said, Donghae just seems to think very differently than most people. And oh yeah, Heechul really dotes on Donghae more than any other members. I feel like Donghae, if not actually outright into guys himself, would be completely cool with those around him who are. This might have something to do with why Heechul feels so much affection toward him. Donghae is really open with his feelings and also very kind in a childlike way, so he probably doesn't make judgements of others the way many adults do. While skinship is real and fanservice is rampant, even some idols have been called out for their excessive skinship. I think some of it is getting carried away with that feeling of touching people (which is really comforting) and not actual attraction toward the opposite sex as a whole. For example, I'm only attracted to girls sexually, but if a very close guy friend of mine who I felt very comfortable with were to cuddle with me or do all those little skinship things, I could see how that would become addictive after a while. It doesn't mean I want to have sex with guys or even with that guy, but if I had that personality toward physical affection, then maybe things would get carried away. (I actually hate touching and would set my friend's hand on fire if he did that shit but yeah.) Anyway, try not to get too wrapped up in speaking for other countries and their cultures when it comes to skinship because of what you've read online. (I hate being that person,) but I've lived in Taiwan for a bit now and the skinship between two friends of the same sex is very different from the skinship between two people who are obviously in a romantic relationship. I don't just mean kissing either. Sure, straight boys here hang all over each other and have no idea what a bubble is, but the way they do it has certain mannerism that are obviously indicative of their friendship being purely platonic.
  19. I could see Siwon and obviously I agree with Heechul... but I really can't see Sungmin as being gay. I personally don't think Siwon is gay, but there are definitely people in this thread that do. As for Sungmin, I just don't see it at all. Actually, contrary to what a lot of fans think, I think he's straight and probably a bit homophobic even. As for Donghae, I think he's more 'pansexual' (I rarely use this term but it seems legit in his case). I don't think he understands or sees gender at all. -- Also that Joon thing is a bit unsettling to me. I hope that if he really is attracted to men, his groupmates aren't truly suspicious and still treating him that way. Maybe they're completely ignorant and were just joking. It's still wrong but at least then it wouldn't have as much meaning behind it. It's no wonder idols don't want to come out when even their own group mates say such things. Same with the CN BLUE thing.
  20. Oh yeah definitely. That's what I mean by 'awkward laugh'. Like that was in no way a normal laugh. I'm wondering if they really did go to any gay bars here though. They are everywhere so it wouldn't be hard and from what I've seen, Taiwanese fans are rather respectful toward celebrity privacy. It wouldn't be that odd if they had went and no one took pictures. Crap I wish I wouldn't have seen that video 'cause now I am too curious.
  21. OH. Yeah. That is very suspicious. Like, as you said, Taiwan is the gayest country ever. Haha, I could definitely see how that might mean something questionable considering the awkward laugh about it. Psh, I honestly have a difficult time being objective about their sexuality cause they all just radiate gay. But yeah, I have a strong feeling that at least three of them are nowhere close to straight and a couple others might would have already experimented.
  22. Wait... what Taiwan thing? (haven't been a fan for long sorry) If it includes Woohyun going to a gay bar in Taiwan, that means nothing since gay bars here are worlds more popular than regular bars. (Seriously non-straight sexualities/relationships are not even questioned in this country. So, the gay scene here is actually very trendy and tends to be in charge of the party scene.) However, I personally think hope Woohyun is GAYYYYYYYYYYYY but yeah.... I'm curious about this 'Taiwan thing'. Please fill me in~~
