most depressing update of 2019: Suho's BOTTOM shirt was just a photoshopped BOSTON shirt (spoiler'd for boringness):

sorry for unintentionally deceiving all of you good gays, bis, and ally straights into thinking that the fabulous tshirt actually existed for purchase.

I was actually the person who photoshopped that and posted it in one of my Suho appreciation thread years ago and kept posting it on here and somehow it spread outside of OH ehshhshdhdhshshhd sorry

Haechan looked so nervous, like he had to give flowers to his crush and the reactions of all the other members after he did it are so cute! He barely managed to do it, looks like he had a little peptalk with himself

What happened in this thread is saddening to say at least. This should be a safe space, and it is being treated as anything but. What was said by the admin and some moss whas inexcusable and I cannot believe who they sided with and why. The homophobia jumped out. I feel like leaving OH after this.

With me personally, I always thought Taehyun was bi. I don't think he is the kind of person who would "bother" with fake dating in the public eye, I just think he didn't care to hide it. Idk, I don't see why his relationship would not be real.

I'm not sure how it is in Korea, but in the US and UK, it's often the company that organizes PR relationships. Actors and musicians have talked about how their companies pressured them into it, or at least tried to. I imagine in Korea, since companies feel comfortable outright banning people from dating at all, they probably wouldn't have a problem coercing them into fake dating when it's convenient.

Taehyun is the CEO of his own company so this really wouldn't be the case

I have a lot of issues with "girl crush" concepts because it basically takes girls groups and makes them more "masculine" for a concept (your first example for a concept like this would be girls wearing suits, something that is inherently connected to males by most cultures.). Which I have a lot of issues with due to the implication that being sweet, cute, etc. is lesser and that to be "empowered" you need to take on masculine qualities but I'll save that rant for another time.

 

But girl crush concepts also almost always have an underlying lesbian vibe to them as well. For example, I've seen a ton of people label Red Velvet's Bad Boy mv a girl crush concept but the thumbnail for the video is all of them laying on top of each other in a bed.

 

The song was written by men and the video was directed by men as well so that's where it personally gets sketchy to me.

 

Edit: I also went back and watched that video and there is a lot of the girls cuddling and whispering in bed.

If I, as a woman had to pin a concept made for the male gaze/based on mens' wants, it would be cute concepts, not girl crush concepts. Girls crush concepts are for us. Forced cuteness is what a lot of het men desire and ask for. Idk where you got this from, but girl crush concept get less support from men and more support from wlw in general. Forcing female idols to use unaturally high and cute voices and act like way younger girls than they are is pandering to the male crowd, not the other way round.

I need your opinions on this…

Vernon from seventeen gives me major bi energy. I have been keeping up with seventeen’s content for a long time now and he is one of the idols I feel connected with because we act so alike. He is pretty shy but I know he is hiding a whole diamond (haha carat) of a personality. Anyone else think he is a very openminded and artsy/interesting person like Ten from WayV? I genuinely think he would be open to date guys. 

When thinking about Vernon, I always remember this.

Wait what’s this jokwon and u-kiss soohyun relationship scandal I just read? 

Quote

Netizens dug up old love letters between Jo Kwon and UKISS member, Shin Soohyun which revealed the two singers' feelings towards one another. The letters were said to contain messages that stated the two had desires to eat, sleep, live, and lay together. However, Jo Kwon denied these rumors and said that they were playing around as friends.

I want to preface this by clarifying that I am by no means shipping them, just thought this was interesting.

Kenta and Donghan from Produce 101 are so close and both of them have had gay rumors. I think they're really close friends and don't want to speculate beyond that, but I find their interactions interesting.

Just as a refresher, Donghan went to an all boys school and this was his graduation photo.

It was later revealed that the classmate who left those kiss marks on him for the photo was Golden Child's Jibeom.

I think that's really cool. Donghan was the touchiest out of all JBJ members and even in Broduce he was collecting men left and right.

He took every opportunity to hug, kiss and cuddle with his members, especially Kenta, hence why they had so many shippers at the time. I don't like shipping because we're talking about real people here so I don't want to comment on that because it's usually nonsense, two people can just look in the same direction and people will ship them and I'm not about that.

If anyone remembers this legendary performance, a lot of people shipped Eunki and JungJung from Broduce, but after the show ended, Eunki was seen a lot on solo outings with Kenta, at clubs, cafes etc. and people started thinking there was something between them.

I remember when these photos came out (creepy stalkers took them), Broduce twitter was in shambles.

After they stopped hanging out together as much and interacting altogether for a while, there was even speculation that Kenta left Eunki for Donghan, because, of course there was, shippers exist. Later on, Eunki and Kenta were on more amicable terms again and it really looked like they rekindled their friendship. I always saw Donghan and Kenta's interactions as the two of them being perhaps similar and understanding each other. If Eunki and Kenta really had a thing, it would explain a lot because it always seemed to me like Donghan was doing his best to be there for Kenta and comfort him but I don't feel comfortable speculating beyond that.

But what I find interesting is how Donghan's family has basically adopted Kenta. Donghan's older brother calls Kenta by their last name and teases him and Donghan.

They still hang out together and are really close. I don't think they're dating (though the brother made me side eye all of them), but I think both of them are not straight.

Also, three years ago the two of them went together to Japan to visit Kenta's mom alone.

 

Kenta's mom called herself Donghan's Japanese mom, the same way Donghan's brother calls Kenta by their last name.

Kenta's mother was a wonderful woman who raised him to be a good man and she passed away last year from a chronic illness.

This guy who I follow he lives in Korea and he said how he’s trying to get into a drama but the lead in the drama is gay and apparently an aggressive power bottom. So it’s taking away from the drama for him. 

This is like when that koreaboo with a somewhat famous blog who stole stories of other women from her community to post them on her Korean men fetishizing blog was dropping hints that she was dating Vernon - simply non-believable. Anyone who uses the term 'aggressive power bottom' is an unreliable narrator to me.

I've always had a soft spot for Jaebeom because he grew up in an abusive household and his birth father was a real man's man (actually a bully and very abusive towards him and his mother) and I think that explains a lot of his issues with touchiness, masculinity and so on. There are things he should work on but I don't think those things mean he's questioning (maybe he is, we don't know) and especially that he's homophobic (I don't think he's homophobic, he recommended LGBTQ+ movies from time to time, is friends with Hong Seok Cheon and went to dinners with him and posted about it, he supports MRSHLL vocally, etc.). I also want to say that his step father is a lovely man who helped him and his mom a lot from what we know publicly and treats them so nicely.

Quote

He explained to Allure magazine how his definitions of masculine and feminine have changed. For example, he once considered things like manicures as feminine and now likes them.

[Rather] than thinking in two separate categories of masculine and feminine, I just express [the things that I like] in the way that feels like me… Of course, [my definitions] change from time to time… And when I was growing my hair out, at first, I thought I would look feminine. Then, I realized there’s no masculine or feminine way of doing things. And after trying it out, I felt like the look is just like me in my own style.

— Jay B

He's growing and that's so important to a person and everyone around them so those are just my two cents. He never pinged me as anything but straight but I could be wrong and that's okay too.

Oh shit never knew about his father... I feel sad for him now.

 

20 minutes ago, Dont mind me said:

Damn didnt know about the abuse, but that makes so much sense now. There is always some sad vibe to him, I assumed it had to do with his masculinity and being queer somehow. But I guess it can be about being Idol and how he need to reconcile those two worlds. 

He never spoke out about the details directly, but there's been snippets from him here and there and some cryptic things he said were alluding to it, too. There's long been rumors about it. It's pretty clear how different it is when he talks about his father and stepdad. Fans know, but rarely speak about it. The whole fandom calls his stepdad "daddy Lim" and think of him fondly. 

https://www.soompi.com/article/1231969wpp/got7s-jb-opens-up-parents-divorce

Quote

JB said, “My family was like that. In the end, my parents got a divorce and now I live with my mom and step-dad.” He continued, “When I used to hear them argue, I’d think, ‘Oh, why are they fighting?’ and become more careful. I became more afraid, and this has a large effect on kids.”

Here's a tweet that mentions things Jay B would mention in concerts etc. His father is an alcoholic and was a mean drunk towards his family and in the end his mother left him, which was the right decision for her kid and her.

Jay B took his stepfather's name, his birth surname was something else. He loves that man so much.

One of the most sus evidence on suga is not the “mistranslation” but the fact that he would hang out with zhoumi back in 2015/16, where suga would show up to zhoumi’s house at 1 am. The fact that their hasn’t been anything else with them since 2016, also how some pleople suspected suga to be dating around that time.

They talked about that on Zhoumi's radio show, I remember because I thought it was interesting and unexpected that those two were so close.

After 2016, Zhoumi has become more based in China than in South Korea and had more projects in China (which I think is sad for him because he loves SK as well, always uses both Chinese and Korean hashtags, communicates in both languages on his social media etc.). He had some issues with his work pass too, despite living in Korea for years back then, I forget the details. We all know what happened between Ch and SK at the time so it's no wonder he hasn't had that much projects in SK since, so that could be why there was no mention of him since. In 2016 he had to step down from his radio role as well. I digress, but it's been really hard for ZM.

Have you all seen his Instagram recently? It's been one thirst trap after another. He's so jacked.

amongst all this lucas drama, apparently, he's bisexual, leaning towards women and was in a relationship with OP at one point (who is male)

https://m.weibo.cn/status/4673863927993276

It's never right to out a person, regardless of if they're being accused of cheating or not. Remember Aaron Yan? And his story didn't even turn out to be true, which was confirmed by every single one of his other exes who stood behind him, but that one man scorned ex outed him out of pure spite and made up such vile stories about him.

There is a currently trending theqoo post about BL culture advancing into male idol music videos

https://theqoo.net/index.php?mid=hot&filter_mode=normal&document_srl=2515342894

It's in regards to OnlyOneOf Kyubin's solo song MV teaser

(stage name KB)

ryfQUvO.png

VS8Fswx.png

OumMMHL.png

The comments are all over the place

"Good body" (KB is shirtless in parts of the teaser)

"OnlyOneOf have always been a bit over the top"

"Is it the group that danced?"

"Isn't that the guy from the group that got famous for those dances?"

There's some homophobia, some support, some indifference.

Does anyone know who this is? 

 

I actually didn't come this for that, but just adding it to my post.

 

The real person I'm here for is IMFACT's Ungjae (new stage name HELLOGLOOM). Back when IMFACT was active and especially in the early days, he was discussed a lot here for the things he himself has said.

He has a company now called The Faker Club with Raehwan and Sulju.

They also have a really cool clothing line along with the music they release, but I think it's interesting the kind of concepts Raehwan and Ungjae are releasing together without Sulju and the way their relationship is.

They're always together and go on "business trips" together and they've been like this even before they joined forces.

I took the photos from each of their accounts and the company account.

They go on lives together from a bed

A lot of fans think they are together tbh

I think they also might be living together? I'm not sure though

It's C-pop, but apparently some Chinese idols came out. 

 

https://www.pannchoa.com/2022/09/theqoo-chinese-male-idol-coming-out.html

I can't really find any proper articles in English confirming this though, does anyone follow Chinese idols so they can provide more info? One of the guys was on Chuang 2021, that's all I know. 

Great for them either way! I hope they'll be able to continue promoting after this.

twitter is saying that its about

  Reveal hidden contents

laun from onf

i don’t know if all the details match up but onf were 7, now 6, debut in 2017 and laun did leave without an explanation or any hints of leaving 

i really like that group too. also sorry for adding to the speculation but when i saw that on my timeline.. idk.. i don’t think the timelines add together because we rely on translations, we might miss details.. but it’s quite a coincidence that onlyoneof always got mistaken for them and then they both have a member who left under personal reasons

Spoiler

Aside from the fact we shouldn't speculate because that will likely out the victim's identity and the victim needs to be protected not further victimized, idk why intl fans got it twisted but the Korean article clearly stated the group debuted as 6, not 7. I think it was a 6 member group when they debuted with him, not that they're a 6 member group now that he was kicked. So, a five member group now if they're still active?

Speaking of Boys Planet, I wanted to talk about the vocal master. From what i have seen from this season and past seasons where he was on I really thaught that he was gay. He was giving such big responses to gay acts like Woonggi or Dongpyo and his mannerisms and complimenting handsome trainees. He is also a musical theatre singer and was in gay ass plays like Hedwig and another one which i dont remember how it's called but he literally played a drag queen. Like a straight man dancing and singing in a full face glam makeup and red heels it's hmm... I was so shook when i found out that he is married and has a child lol. He is just so gay codded.

Edit: I feel like he is either some kind of bisexual or it's one of those cases which happen to gay people in conservative environments. Idk. Maybe i am doing too much.

Or maybe he's happily married and there's no need to read into something that isn't there. Sometimes an ally is an ally. He could be bi/pan though, but there's no reason to believe he's in a glass marriage.
