25%Cotton 7,133 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) i don't think the point is whether bisexual or homosexual people have it better when they decide to live as "straight." the point is: if you are bi, you are bi. there may be a degree of preference one way or the other, but attraction isn't a simple on/off switch. example~♪ if you're a bi boy looking4luv, and you see heart-stoppingly adorable boy A, you could try to get yourself to stop thinking about him... maybe even try to focus on an attractive girl instead. but she's not him. every person you meet is unique, and the same goes for everyone you fall for; it's not so easy as replacing one with any other and everything working out easy. sure, you'll probably move on even without owning up to yourself, but it's gotta hurt if you keep stomping your feelings out every time you find yourself enamored with a boy just because you want to pretend you're straight. feelings can be ignored, but there is a price.

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Could be. It's Namjoon so it could be anything. He does like his wordplay though. The word 'Her' has both a male and a female within it. Basically nothing would surprise me. As long as he loves himself, that's the main thing. am i missing something? this sounds like a major reach.

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) no i don't think all of them are gay ofc, but i also think that the majority are lgbt. and who know maybe they does? this is kind of the crux of your argument, and while it's true that it IS POSSIBLE, there's really only so many times you can assume the less likely interpretation and still come across as believable. you may be right, the majority MIGHT be gay, and they MIGHT all share gay porn amongst themselves that they MIGHT admit to willingly on TV under the expectation viewers will assume it's straight porn. and similarly, as Bushi was saying, RM MIGHT be implying that 'Her' could actually be a 'Him' even though there are other ways he could have stayed gender neutral if he wanted to... it just feels like you guys are almost coming up with excuses to avoid the more likely implications. (that's not to say i don't buy any parts of your arguments. i do think it's extremely telling that RM used "her" extensively for himself but avoided gender pronouns for Jimin, etc.) Edited September 27, 2018 by 25%Cotton 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I'm projecting but Taehyung looks kind of dejected here, and the fact that he doesn't want to release the version with Adora is possibly quite telling. why not sing it together live in a social media update without releasing a studio ver and see the vast amount of positive reactions they'd get for it? it's a bit daring but i wish they would.

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) Is it just me or is this really gay coded?? wow monsta x really pulling through preview extremely gay, full thing might totally swerve, though (or at least distract by sticking a few shots of a girl in). --- guys why are we doing spoiler tags for totally interesting and relevant topics? the political backdrop of LGBT rights/perception in Korea (and even greater Asia, such as Taiwan) strongly influence how comfortable LGBT idols are when it comes to showing who they are or expressing their support. it's not like you guys are talking about how happy you were to see Kai's dancing live in Jakarta or something. if you insist on using spoiler tags for an entire post (which you don't need to for this topic), at the very least add a descriptive title outside of the tag. otherwise, we're still clicking through all of your spoiler tags to find out what they're about, which defeats the purpose of the tag. we've talked about this before. thanks.

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I do agree with you somewhat, I like Holland’s personality and his bravery but musically I’m not a fan, he’s yet to show me anything unique. I don’t like his voice and he hasn’t showed us anything else. That’s partly why korean media doesn’t give him attention. However, imo his popularity is only international, and he has quite a lot of fans. If he had the same popularity and was straight (which I doubt he would’ve tbh) the media would have gave him more attention, at least more articles. Many international kpop fans know him but if you would ask a korean, no one knows who he is, because korean media doesn’t acknowledge him or his existence. Tbh idek where I’m even going with this and what I’m actually discussing so I’ll just stop here hahah he's not a dancer in the slightest. he's not a particularly great singer. neither one of these are qualifications to be an idol – your standard idol is not inherently much more musically talented than your average karaoke singer or talent show dancer, they simply have diligence, looks, and a manageable personality (sometimes with a strong inclination or exceptional talent in one or more categories). in Holland's case, his charms are his soft prince-like looks and "the fact that he's openly gay," which is actually nothing to scoff at in a country where he and the Korean-American Marshall are the only 2 publicly out singers, and tells a LOT about who he is and what kind of strength it took him just to get this far. he doesn't have power vocals, or dancing skills... but most idols (including solos) don't actually have these, they just get away with great production values and hours of hard work perfecting the choreography. and then, i just really like the song Neverland 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25%Cotton 7,133 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 (edited) Good vocals or elaborate dances might not be a standard in America and in most other countries, but it is a must in Korea, culturally it is, that's why it is so hard to break into the industry... decent vocals and decent dancing are required. most main vocals are good, some fantastic, but the majority of kpop vocals are only "karaoke-good" (with many simply "carrying a tune" or worse) "the fact that he is openly gay" means nothing honestly... oh-ho. if it means nothing then why aren't there more people like Holland in kpop (or even Korea at-large). i think it was mostly for PR when he came out, otherwise no one would of payed attention, coming out was probably a good move on his part but not for the long run, if he would of come out in a later point in his career probably when he was already an established name, things would be different and he would be seen as someone with talent rather than someone with a sexuality. what has longevity got to do with anything? Holland is there to be the one. here's a few direct quotes from a brief article: "I thought there's got to be someone like me who discloses their sexual identity." "I became a victim of school violence after that. They didn't keep my secret. So I was bullied a lot at school. But no one could actually comfort me, not even my parents or friends. Or any public figure." "This song ["Neverland"] is for kids who are having a bad time because of their identity... I wanted to comfort them with this song while they're struggling."

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I know this isn't idol related but the American-Korean actor, Jake Choi, recently did an interview where...well, it's 6 minutes of your life to read his story and he is awesome. He does speak Korean and spent some time there before returning home to the US and has seen his star on the rise with the roles he's landed, notably 'Single Parents'. His attitude is like a breath of fresh air both in the industry and among men in general. Well worth your time, imo. https://www.verygoodlight.com/2018/09/26/jake-choi/ https://www.instagram.com/thejakechoi/?hl=en wow that was unexpected. what a cool, honest(, and sexy) guy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25%Cotton 7,133 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) It's Key's first solo 'Forever yours'. It was released yesterday.

I'm probably being delusional here lol Sent from my iPhone X using OneHallyu mobile app video w/ eng-subbed lyrics: it kind of reminds me of this song from Jonghyun's last album ↓ but i don't know if Key had any part in penning lyrics for this song (or anything off his upcoming album). anyone know who did the lyrics for Forever Yours?

25%Cotton 7,133 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I think it's interesting how some people are reacting to Aaron Yan's news with 'omg I didn't think he was gay, I always had a crush on him'. Obviously not a sin or anything, I'm not trying to slap the ignorant label on those people but it might be somewhat telling that there's a subconscious element to writing celebrities off as straight when personal attraction to them is involved. Or if there aren't immediate flags. Whenever someone on this thread declares their belief of an idol to be het, I always think of Luke Evans. How many people would guess he was gay if he wasn't out? Probably none. Sometimes gay stands out, sometimes gay looks like everyone else o man if every man *i* thought was attractive was actually gay... *dreaming* 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
