Offtopic ig but i was reading Demian by Herman Hesse a few weeks ago and I suddenly went "didn't Namjoon read this book too?"

And then I remember that there's a whole mv based on it/some lines from the book in an mv? Something like this.

That book is heavy, like heeeavy with gay subtext idc what anyone says. It became one of my favourites, I could rant about it all day, but I am curious if RM saw it in a similar way or went with the "not gay at all cause they're not exactly separate persons and everything is symbolic..." view

 

Not proof of anything just a random thought I had which is loosely related to this thread.

Yeah, it's Blood, Sweat&Tears, inspired on this book.

Why is it whenever something really interesting is being posted about BTS, shippers discussion comes up? 

Anyways back on the subject. One of he posters said that Hyo Shin was discussed on this thread before. Can you tell when me what was the concensus back then? 

If I remember correctly, there were rumors that he was once in a relationship with his pianist, but he is not someone I follow very closely. But I know Tae is a fan of this guy like many celebrities. He's a big name in Korea when it comes to ballad songs. I'm really happy for Tae. I hope a collab song comes along, because they sounded amazing in the video.

To be honest, I wouldn't be certain about this, as Tae always throws out old and recent pictures and videos lol

Aah amazing to hear that. This for me a bigger indication that he might be gay then his mannerisms. 

@Josaline

Thanks for this, I will google his pianist. I like that Tae has some nice taste. 

As always, Tae has no trouble pointing out the people he admires and collecting them like a pokemon lol

Hoseok is the only member in the group that I honestly believe is straight and have no doubts about. He's the member whose story on the girlfriend is the most believable, and who shows the most convincing interest in women. Also, his attitude towards fanservice is very remarkable. He never lets his ships grow to Taekook/Jikook sizes. When Vhope started to grow too big, he abruptly cut off all communication with Tae. He avoided his touch, not even interacting with him properly for almost two years. Then Sope started to get popular and surprise, he killed Sope nicely too. In fact, if he did with Tae the same things he did with Jungkook, they could become popular again. The only person he's closest to as a skinship right now is Jungkook. But since Jungkook is already part of two big ships, Hopekook doesn't seem to have that much of a chance to grow and maybe that's why he's so comfortable with him.

I wonder if idols have seen this thread as well? 

Who knows? Anyone can access anything on the Internet. Even if they're not idols, maybe their companies are browsing existing Kpop forums to see what's being said about their groups/idols. Everything is possible.

if he is dating her it is still possible he is bisexual which is what i’ve always thought he was. i’ve realized he expresses attraction and interest in both men and women so you never know. 

 

but the thing is the joanna chun thing makes me think that he’s just friends with her for business connections. him and her going out to art museums with her family and her other female friends makes me think yeah this isn’t anything romantic, he’s just in a circle of rich people and he’s using it for his own good (i would too) now the next spoiler is wild if you wanna believe it you can or can not

andrew oh works at paradise group and is an alleged sponsor for taehyung. same place for joanna. he constantly posts taehyung on his story. they first met back in 2019ish when tae himself invited him to their show, namjoon came back and translated for them and they all took a pic together. since then andrew oh and taehyung have been constantly meeting up and you can scroll through his account and see him meeting up with blackpink, treasure and taehyung a lot. he posted weird taehyung pics on his story too and writes paragraphs on how handsome he is… lolllll. last week he posted a lot on his story about taehyung.

 

One of the most ridiculous theories I've ever read lol First, for someone to think that Taehyung needs a sponsor, they have to believe he is an unknown idol lmao Secondly, Andrew Oh has always been someone who likes to use idols for his own benefit and promotion. He's someone who tries to make friends with anyone he thinks is popular, from Big Bang members to Blackpink members, and shamelessly shares it.

I think that's why Taehyung was so furious about the whole thing, it wasn't just a het dating rumour. But ties in to a long history of alleging Taehyung is 'sponsored' (which in Kpop implies sexual favours) by Andrew Oh or Paradise Group or is a gold-digger with a sociopathic status need. There's such a lot of BS like that on LSA (about BTS as a whole) and Quora (Jikooker trolls). It's a smear campaign. 

Honestly I think both rumours are like wish-fulfilment for jealous anti-fans as if the most handsome, most popular member of BTS can't be in a normal, loving relationship, but must be involved in something shady. 

Edit: also rumours for Jimin and V always seem to involve more hypersexualisation than the rest of BTS. No one's saying Jin is 'sponsored' by those middle-aged celebrity chefs he likes to hang out with. Small flavour of homophobia there as if 'gay / bi rumours = sexually indiscriminate and unscrupulous'

And if you notice, Taehyung is actually doing the same things as Blackpink Jennie. They both seem to be friends with Joanna, they have both taken pictures with Andrew Oh more than once. But for some reason it is Taehyung who is sponsored. What's the difference between them? Except that Taehyung is male and has a lot of antis because he's one of the most popular members of BTS?

He doesn’t “need” to do anything but even millionaire celebrities are still out here doing Nespresso and diet pill commercials lol. Celebrities use their fame to promote things in exchange for money and connections, why is this so hard to believe?

 

Spoiler

What you say and what the antis imply are very different. In what you're talking about, the celebrity signs a commercial deal and gets paid in return. In the other, celebrity tries to gain connections in the industry by doing sexual favors. I really can't believe some of you are acting like you don't notice the sluthaming. Disapointed.

You are an oversensitive fan who will continue projecting subliminal messages onto any discussion of this topic regardless of what anybody says lol.

But I do have to laugh at your other comment trying to imply that JENNIE is BENEFITTING from a double standard between men and women in kpop. 

 

Spoiler

I'm not saying she took advantage of it. I'm just pointing out how picky the antis are and they trying targeting only Taehyung even though they're both doing the same thing. Which is actually nothing lol But of course you don't want to see that because you know I'm right.

I am not really in on this topic but if the rumors now are about a member of bts, why bring blackpink up too? Maybe antis just... don't know about the other case because they only anti one of them. There is no double standard here, i am pretty sure the blackpink members get nasty rumors and hate too for all they do especially if it includes someone from the opposite sex.

They both seem to be friends with Joanna and they have both taken pictures with Andrew Oh more than once. I'm sure Jennie has had her fair share of haters too. But what I want to show here is how picky the antis are and acting as if Taehyung did something different from other celebrities. If the same person has a picture with more than one celebrity and all these celebrities are faced with the same accusations, it is proof of what a great nonsense is going on.

why would anyone bring up a het rumor in a which male idols do you think are gay thread. it isn’t antis speculating these idols have sponsors, it’s gossips sites and k galleries. blackpink has had way worse rumors for years because they are women. taehyung’s is rarely brought up and i found it on a small part of the web, people were actually speculating andrew could have been a you know what because of his relations to blackpink and how everyone likes to assume every female idol has 100 you know whats. not everyone is so far up celebrities ass that they have to be a hardcore fan or a hardcore anti. look at western celebrity culture, everyone gossips. just get over it and if something is wrong say it’s wrong and disprove it and you’re good. now people know it was just small gossip. no need to go out of your way to freak out on a site like this and call people antis. it’s a sexuality thread. talk about that. the s word convo should have been over a while ago. 

The interesting thing is that you wanted to bring this gossip here and probably get people talking about it. But it's funny how you're not happy that because conversation going places you don't want to lol

Are you guys talking Andrew Oh of Paradise City hotel? The same guy that was trying to leech off of BigBang before Taeyang's wedding since his wedding was at that very hotel? This guy is known to make friends with idols to promote Paradise City. He basically uses these idols to promote the hotel and stuff. 

There's nothing more or deep to it like a sponsorship. BigBang fans peeped what this man was trying to do. Using celebrities so people can be like "who dat" and find out who he is. "oh he's friends with my favorite idol lemme check out paradise city".

Some shouldn't jump so easily into silly claims without researching what Andrew Oh is like and how he's had no hesitation in using celebrities for years.

No, you go outside. Because we don't need people like you who think that serious accusations like 'sponsorship' are simple topics to talk about easily. Go get some humanity lessons.

That isn’t even the most serious accusation to be thrown around this week Josaline this parasocial relationship is kicking your ASS

I haven't seen the others, but I saw this topic and I'm talking about it. This has nothing to do with the parasocial relationship. No one has the right to accuse someone of being a slut without proof. Go get some humanity lessons.

All I will say is that sponsorships are not a good thing in Korea. It’s the reason Miss Gina Choi was sadly exiled from the industry. Once they found out she was the sponsor they were done with her. Instead of feeling bad for her they dropped her. 

Don't bother. As you can see, they are trying to simplify even such a heavy topic and turn it into a topic that can be easily talked about. As long as it's not their own idol, they don't see a problem in discussing such a topic openly. I don't think this is any different from antis actions.

So excuse this guy's channel with his annoying over the top clickbait titles. The most important part is the video after the 5 minute mark. 

https://youtu.be/1FtthpbeeSg

The interaction was weird between Jin and V. I definitely don't think they are dating lol idk why the youtuber brought that idea up.

Any opinions on that conversation? Idk what to make of it. 

 

Spoiler

There is nothing weird betwen V and Jin. This youtuber knows it by popping all kinds of silly headlines for click and making videos full of lies. Please don't take him seriously.

i get it’s my fault since i brought up the dumb topic but the fighting over this has gotten annoying and too far. i’m sorry for even bringing up such a dumb topic i didn’t look more into and didn’t know it was so serious but at this point it’s like come on we know it’s fake no need to instigate. agree to disagree or whatever and just move on for real. there are other topics especially around taehyung to discuss when it comes to sexuality. dude had a whole thing where he posted a bunch of gay stuff recently and deleted it lol.  or we can discuss other groups or someone like yoongi who has always been very quiet and has always shown attraction to both men and women.

  Reveal hidden contents

i deleted the talk and all like fifteen hours ago for a reason, it was just a rumor and speculation with no fact. a lot of stuff here is that. didn’t know sponsor meant what people are implying it means, it sounded like a relationship with an older rich dude. good it’s over with and we know he is just some clout chaser

 

I'm relieved now that I've added the other user to my ignore list. My advice to you, please do your own research before talking about serious rumors. As you can see, some trying to equate talking about sponsors with our discussions about whether an idol LGBT or not. Let's put aside that they are completely different issues, this puts the idol's being LGBT and having a sponsor relationship in the same basket. In a word, it's bullshit.

A bit off-topic because it's not an idol or a Korean, but y'all heard about the whole Isaiah Rashad situation?

He's an American rapper who has 3 2 children with women, sings about "p*ssy" and is surrounded by women in some videos. 

Recently two sex-tapes of him with other men were leaked. 

woo we need a shocked reaction emoji here

There is no need for sarcasm on this case, it really isn't a funny one . I understand where you are coming from and yes there are a lot of men who are queer and yet still have kids in hetero relationships. But this one is kinda fucked up and I can't see the joke of it. 

I'm not joking tho.. I'm trully shocked what happened to him. That's why I said we need a shocked reaction emoji.
