Important reminder! For queer folks like myself it is appealing to think your faves might be queer too, and that's fine, but remember that there's a cynical marketing side to some of the seemingly gay interactions and it can be exploitive particularly when artists use it then turn around and act like being gay is weird and wrong. There 100% are gay idols who benefit from the fact that most fans assume they're straight playing gay for the fans, but the overall messaging there is an issue that openly queer idols like Holland and Choi Hanbit are actively combating.
