Got7 debut onehallyu11/11/2023 ![]() I just think that it is probably much more common than we think. There is no doubt that there are many more straight people in the industry than queer. The majority of Kpop idols become idols because they genuinely like singing, dancing, or rapping. In conclusion: I don’t think everyone in every Kpop group is gay/ bi/ lesbian. or right! The life of a Kpop idol! It’s no secret that Kpop idols have dating bans and limited contact with people outside their company. What’s something besides jail that can make people feel isolated and lonely and seek a romantic relationship with the nearest person they bond with?. This is commonly seen in women’s prisons, where the LGBT population is not higher than among women outside of prison, but lesbian relationships are super common. I can’t find any good articles to link at the moment, but it has been shown that very lonely people who previously thought of themselves as straight can form romantic relationships with the same sex. It can even be said that 1/10 people are gay or bi. New studies are showing that because of LGBT acceptance and representation in society, more people are self-identifying as queer and the population percentage of queer people is on the rise because people who would have died thinking they were straight are seeing themselves more and more often in queer media and realizing their true sexuality/ gender identity. Someone who has attraction to the same sex but never realized it may end up falling for someone in their group, when in any other profession they would have settled down with someone of the opposite sex without a doubt. (I do not think that fan service or skin ship = a relationship, actually quite the opposite, it just seems like a lot of fans base their ships off of skin ship) How does the rest of the fandom who doesn’t ship then react react? “OMG YALL ARE SO DELULU” “Can’t you see this is FANSERVICE!?!” “ I do this with my friends all the time and I’m straight, you clearly don’t know about skinship” There are so many ships in Kpop, 99% of them being false, that the few real couples could hide behind this. People go crazy on twitter, ‘proof’ videos pop up everywhere on YouTube for AB’s ship. They lose a little control one day and get caught on stage staring at each others lips and flirting with each other/ biting each other’s ears. Girl A and Girl B are from a popular group. I know this seems kind of backwards, but hear me out. Shipping within Kpop fandoms can often work to hide same- sex relationships in groups. Take someone of a gender minority from a homophobic and transphobic country and give them a job where they can dress feminine, express themselves freely, and wear clothes/ do things that can be excused as normal idol stuff. (I did not create this Idea myself, It was told to me and seemed to make sense, stop attacking me for this one, I’m just quoting)įreedom of expression for non-binary / transgender idols. Even if someone has not realized they are gay yet, they may still feel some pull towards this lifestyle and say “I think being an idol is my calling” because the lifestyle seems so desirable to them. When a prospective trainee sees the idol life for the first time they see attractive men or women performing fan service and dancing in small outfits. You live with them, work out with them, even bathe or sleep with them. In idols groups you are surrounded my very attractive people of the same sex. I think that Kpop is in an environment that attracts queer people. This opinion has come from months of thinking and discussing with others. There is no need to lecture me about skinship and fan service because I already know. Okay, before you attack me an call me a fujoshi or gay digger just know that I am both bisexual and a very logical person.
