fuck it LGBTQ+ KPOP IDOLS - a much needed (theres more than you think and SHOCKER!! theyre actually out!!) thread https://twitter.com/slut4chuu/status/1283874891901657095
btw this thread doesnt have Holland simply because he's an extremely popular gay idol and other lgbtq+ people deserve the "spotlight" i think
Harisu - Harisu is a trans singer and model and is Korea's first transgender singer! (She was also the second person in Korea to legally change their gender so an icon) Her instagram is @/risu_ha if you want to check her out! (one of my favorite songs from her is Make Your Life)
LADY - LADY is a four-member transgender (women) group that debuted in 2005 (and were actually inspired by the emergence of Harisu!) However, they disbanded shortly after their debut in 2007. If I find their socials after i publish this then i will link it below but irdk
MEMBERS GOING IN ORDER: Sinae, Sahara, Yoona, Binu
TW// transphobia
if you do look more into the group, their song Attention (its a banger btw), has a stage from MBCkpop, published 8 years ago (was aired in 2005) that shows very transphobic sounding phrases on the screen as they perform. please be aware of this

Choi Hanbit- Choi Hanbit is a trans model and former member of the group Mercury (She was the leader!) Although it was never confirmed, it was assumed that Mercury disbanded only a couple months after debut so there's like two songs

Cha Sevin- Cha Sevin is a trans singer! There isn't much I could find about her but she debuted with one song, I AM, in 2016 and its kinda been silent on her music career since then. She's also friends with Harisu!!

MRSHLL - MRSHLL is one of the first openly gay male kpop idols! (i think he was supposed to be THE first openly gay male kpop idol but Holland beat him by a couple months 
) Regardless! he's a really good k-r&b artist and you should definitely check him out!

TW// bullying (?)
In 2017, after Som Hein left Idol School, it was made aware to the public that Hein had been involved in a bullying situation (Hein stated she was a bystander). Although Hein has formally apologized, please take this into account if you plan on stanning her.

Jiae - Jiae is a former member of the gg WA$$UP and has recently come out this January as bisexual!! She is currently a cover artist but I believe she's making a solo debut soon? idk if this will blow up but someone please lmk.
REGARDLESS! her covers are fucking AMAZING (my personal fav is her cover of Home Sick by Dua Lipa) and and look at this photo she posted the other day 
literally the cutest

Maman- Maman (aka Magoply) is a lesbian singer and is the FIRST openly gay kpop idol (as in, like first even before Holland). She was kicked out of her company after their idea to pretend her coming out was a prank, backfired. I believe she is currently under another company.
She's been ia since 2015 but her pre-existing music is extremely good and I recommend that you check her out!
In conclusion, please stop pretending that your faves are inherently lgbtq+ simply because they make a vague statement or "act like it". its honestly so invasive to think this way, ESPECIALLY because not a single one of those idols except Holland were officially out.
hey would it be cool if i made a part 2 to this thread but its about the chinese industry? theres a lot of lgbt influencers in the industry and i think it would be cool to make a part 2 to make people aware and help them stan lmfao
or would it be more interesting to talk about things like representation in media (mvs, shows, etc)
oh hi this is gaining traction again so i'd like to bring attention to the current crisis the LGBTQ+ community in poland is facing!! please do everything that you can shown in this carrd https://lgbtqpl.carrd.co
