I never take my readings seriously. At the end of the day, we never truly know. It’s all just minor observations. Heck even Heechul and Changmin (TVXQ) were in relationships with women and now Changmin is getting married. We will never truly know their sexual orientations, evidence or not, until they say so (or do so) themselves. 

A little OT but- has Changmin ever been questioned though? He never seemed as sus as Yunho to me.

I know they literally just debuted, but does anyone have any opinions on Cravity?

honestly I don't mind shippy content in the thread when it's involved in analysis or like overtly gay. Not to call myself out but i do post dowoo and moonbae content bc i believe it is sus. But also for ages this thread turned into a BTS shipping thread.

Moonbae gives me major vibes and I literally just can't explain it but imo, Kevin can't be straight because he is- quite literally- the epitome of Gen Z Stan Twitter gay and their relationship seems a bit too fanservicey sometimes.

Also, does anyone else get major vibes from Wonho? Like, after he opened up a personal IG, I can't see him as straight.

I think Jaehyun is straight. He used to ping me way more back in the day, but now.....




 

I agree with most of what you said except this. I think Jaehyun's bi because I do see his attraction to guys and he still pings me + DoJae (back in the day) was really sus imo. However, I definitely do think he is attracted to women and I think there might be some attraction between him and April's Naeun.

What do you guys think of WOODZ (Cho Seungyeon, former X1)? He's always given me weird vibes. Sometimes I feel he's bi with female preference, sometimes straight and sometimes pan and in general confused me. I can't picture him with a guy, but for some reason I do think he might be open? Idk, other than Wooseok the X1 hyung line seemed pretty straight to me, but something about WOODZ was just hmmm

Tweets like this, however:

Make me think he's just a straight ally, primarily because of the wording. (For context he made a tiktok that had the f word and he didn't know the meaning). For some reason though, I can't shake off the feeling that he might be bi but at the end of the day I do think he's straight. 

What about y'all?

 You're right though, he's probably straight and I might be reading into it too much

Does anyone have thoughts on Astro's Eunwoo? I mean he seems pretty straight from all his interactions with female idols, but there could be unexpected receipts of him being sus that I don't know about.

He's definitely straight imo and there's no reason to believe otherwise. I know people try to justify their thoughts on him being LGBT by saying they get "vibes" but I feel like it's just wishful thinking. 

Half of the ASTRO members confuse me to oblivion regarding their sexualities, but I'm definitely more sure about the other half.

The ones that are easier to discern:

Jinjin- Straight

Eunwoo- Straight

MJ- Gay

Rocky, Moonbin and Sanha (especially him, however) I have no idea on

[pokezuko]

Is anyone watching I-LAND? Most of the children are minors, but I have some thoughts unrelated to sexuality, I'll put them under spoilers.

Spoiler

Does anyone else get the idea or feeling that there's a marginalisation (not bullying per se) of Sunoo. He's clearly more effeminate than the other trainees and doesn't have the masculine image. He got the most votes to go to GROUND in the 1st episode (where I think everyone except his team members voted him), so it's been happening since the beginning.

Then for round 3, although he was in the top 5 scorers, he was still eliminated in a majority vote. Of course the "original" I-LANDers have formed a friendship but then why didn't they vote out one of the other 2 that moved from GROUND to I-LAND (EJ & Jaebeom) when they got lower scores than him? 

Am I reading into it too much? Maybe they're just threatened by him? If so, Taki got less votes than him despite his higher score. Sunoo's also mentioned he's had a hard time socialising and I can't help but think it's because the "core" group are much more masculine and give off the stereotypical "high school footballer" energy and just not be as open to the concept of being friends with a more effeminate guy.

Would love to know your thoughts or if I'm overthinking

Thank you. It's pretty clear Eunwoo is straight, I was just wondering if there are receipts on him but I guess not lol. I also agree with you Jinjin is straight and I don't know the other members at all.

Yeah, outside of fanservice (like MoonbinxEunwoo or SanhaxEunwoo) there's nothing that truly pings. On all the variety shows he's done by himself, he seemed pretty straight.

Hi, I'm currently watching I-Land and I can say it seems the other I-Landers have something against Sunoo and Daniel. These two are consistently doing amazing and Daniel was scoring high often, but these two were voted twice to go back to Ground. You're not the only one sharing this opinion actually. I was talking the other day to another I-Land fan on a discord and they said they felt like Sunoo was being excluded and voted out because he doesn't really fit in with the manly and boyish image the I-Landers want to maintain. At first, I was surprised because I never thought about this way but I do think the I-Landers see him and Daniel too as some kind of threat. 

 

Spoiler

I feel like there's this sort of stigma against the younger trainees as a whole which is why I think Daniel was voted into ground, despite being more masculine, they still probably see him only as "cute" I guess.

Chenle: straight

Jisung: I'm not sure... since he only interacts with the dreamies is hard to elaborate an opinion on him

Really! What makes you think that? For me, it's the complete opposite xD

Chenle is so much harder to read the Jisung imo so I'm not sure about anything regarding him, but I'm leaning towards bi.

Jisung on the other hand, I'm pretty sure is straight (despite his lack of interactions outside of Dream).

Does anyone here follow TOO? They were on RTK and had a comeback recently and I get vibes from some members (Minsu, Jerome, Woonggi) and I wanted to know somene else's opinion

Hi guys! SO i know this thread is about idols but i saw some talk also about actors. What actors do you think are gay?

Except Yoo Ah In cause he is pretty much confirmed, like he had rumors for a long time and he was also spotted multiple times in gay clubs with photo evidence.

To me, the "bad" guy from Itaewon Class pings. His name is Ahn Bo-Hyun.

So which actors do you think are gay and why?

(Not my opinion since I don't really follow K-actors as closely to form a strong opinion, just pointing out an observation)

iirc a lot of people though Park Bogum pinged on this thread a while ago, but, then it was revealed he's part of like a super religious cult (or something along those lines) and those sentiments trickled out.

BUT, if I were to add my own opinion and go off vibes, lowkey Ji Soo and Seo In Guk ping (somewhere on the spectrum, I'd say bi) but I can't exactly point out why. 

However, I do remember there was this Knowing Bros clip from an episode which featured Ji Soo and there was like a point where the cast members were joking about him being into men and iirc, he didn't entirely deny it in the beginning? But the whole situation was just weird imo. Does anyone know which clip I'm talking about?

A few pages ago i asked for some bl and thank you guys for the suggestions, but now i am curious if there are any korean series/movies who are not BL, but have some good lgbt characters. 

I already know about The Handmaiden(great movie btw) and itaewon class.

Also i don't want series/movies who only have like just one lgbt scene during the entire time like Gong Myung's movie.

Moment at Eighteen (character played by Moonbin), Love with Flaws, Reply 1997 and Sweet Munchies (this one had a main lgbt plot iirc) all have lgbt side plots (also I think Seolhyun did a mini drama about and played a lesbian but I forgot the name).

I haven't watched Sweet Munchies, but Moment at Eighteen and Love with Flaws both had great lgbt side stories (I may be biased but I preferred them over the main couple). However, for Moment of Eighteen, the lgbt plotline sort of faded away after he came out and a lot of the beginning had you assuming he was gay because it wasn't outrightly stated.

But Love with Flaws was pretty consistent in its lgbt storyline and mentions if gay characters. Sadly, the actor playing one of the lgbt characters passed away while the drama was airing (Cha Inha).

There's also Coffee Prince. Although the couple is heterosexual, he didn't really know she was a woman until 10 episodes in when he already fell in love with her. So it sort of implied he was pansexual? It was funny though.

What do y'all think of Kevin Woo (U-KISS)? I can't really pinpoint him. 

[pokezuko]

So I just realised it's been more than 1.5 years since Wanna One disbanded () and 3 years since Broduce 101 ended.

Does anyone have updated thoughts on the Wanna One members or any Broduce trainees (Oneus, Yoo Seonho, D1CE, JBJ, NU'EST)

What does everyone think about the foreign squad? Aka Eric Nam, Kevin Woo, Henry Lau, and Jae (Day6)? There’s also BM and Peniel but they ping me as straight. 

Eric, Jae and Henry are straight for me and from what I've seen, I really don't feel like there's any reason to believe otherwise, same for BM and Peniel. Nonetheless, I do think they're all great allies.

I've posted about Kevin Woo being confusing before (to no avail...) but I fr cannot figure him out.

I feel the same about Jae and Henry, but I feel like Eric is gay. He’s pretty fem and is very close with some female idols (like way too close). His music is also pretty gender neutral. Can I ask why you think he’s straight?

He just never pinged me. Most of his reactions to his colleagues- both male and female- seemed the same and he's never shown any true attraction to guys in my eyes.

Also, to add, I know WGM is fake but there was definitely a lot of chemistry between him and Solar, which made them one of the more popular pairings. IIRC, he even tried to contact Solar after the stint was over.

I just don't think he's gay, pan maybe? But I do think he's attracted to women

What do you guys think about I-land trainees? At least the older trainees, since some like Taki, Niki and Daniel are super young

Very hard to judge considering only a handful of trainees are above 18 and only 3 are 20+ so they're still probably questioning. 

Also, we don't really even get enough behind the scenes/fluff content or wholesome interactions that I can judge properly.

I feel like Hongjoong could be pan tbh

[pokezuko]

Does anyone else feel like YG groups in general tend to have less LGBTQ+ members? For iKon I'd say maybe 2 ping, for Big Bang 1 and for Winner, no one's really on my radar but I didn't really follow them as closely.

SM groups on the other hand, I feel have a greater percentage? Like I have genuinely seen arguments that 2/3 of OT9 EXO could be LGBT+ (with Chen, Xiumin and Lay overall being agreed upon as straight). 

Idk maybe I'm reading into it, but I've never really seen anyone make that many arguments for lgbt members in YG groups (this goes for GG's too)

[pokezuko]

Ex-Member of The Boyz Hwall/Hyunjoon 

Apparently he also said the name of the filter (Gay Pride) and I thought it was cute. Nonetheless, I always did think he was sus and thought he could be pan, although at the same time he never really seemed attracted to any gender..? Idk

He recently debuted as a soloist, check out his song Baragi!!

i think you mean romeos' kangmin

 

IIRC, they (the company+group) tried to cover it up later by stating they all like girls and specified that in a VLIVE after 2 members accidentally kissed (like very heavy emphasis).

AFAIK, Kangmin's enlisted in the army now, but seeing as he's pretty young ('99 liner), he does very well have a career ahead of him.

Or who knows, after he's discharged, he may come out officially.
