Is g dragon gay
It looks like Big Bang‘s leader G-Dragon will finally be opening up about his sexuality after rumors circulated on the internet.
Last year at Large Bang’s Big Show 2011 concert, G-Dragon performed opposite bandmate T.O.P in a parody of the accepted drama Secret Garden.
If you recall, the two joint a rather steamy kissing scene, that garnered gigantic reactions from netizens around the world. It seems that the kiss, that netizens thought looked “very romantic”, sparked rumors about the nature of the two member’s relationship. In K-pop, fan pairings are very common, but idols are adamant about denying the validity of these pairings, and maintaining their heterosexuality.
On the heels of Big Bang’s recent appearance on the YG Family Special episode of Powerful Heart, where it was reported that G-Dragon saw T.O.P’s naked body and called it “erotic”, news has emerged that G-Dragon plans to reveal his relationship with his band member in an upcoming issue of High Cut.
“In the beginning, things went very slow, and we were very careful, but at this point in our relationship, Dragon of the West said: This is a really weird post to build. Taking guesses on people's sexuality is next level parasocial and just a straight up unhealthy behaviour. Click to expand... It’s almost inevitable in K-pop that same-sex couples will be shipped, from almost every band. And with each couple that is shipped, you also get the people who rant about how none of our oppars and unnirs are actually gay, and gay shippers are delusional, and can’t explain the difference between fanservice and homosexuality(bisexuality & pansexuality included). But I crave to look beyond shipping and fanservice, and girl team dances to seize a valid stare at who may actually fall somewhere between the middle and beyond of the Kinsey scale. I do ship, I won’t recline and pretend that I don’t. I think it’s a normal part of being a human, and being emotionally attached in pop society, since there feel to be ships in literally every fandom that exists on Earth, including NBA, Harry Potter, Star Trek, and just about anything you can believe of. But some ships are just for fun, and aren’t truly as questionable as others. Please feel free to talk to me about anyone in K-pop or any Asian amusement that you ponder might actually be gay, or that you think I’m way off ground about, but in this post, I will be discussing a few of the K-Pop idols who I reflect are gay and Ok, i’m like suuuuuper new in this Kpop thing but i’ve been reading things about GTOP but it always ends up saying that Gtop is bogus. So, is it fake or not? Or was it authentic in a moment? I indicate, is TOP gay like declared (bc i know about gd bein bi but i recognize nothing about top) *This is a submission, I will answer below. There is no official information about G-Dragon, TOP, their love lives, or their sexual orientations. There is just a lot of speculation. People think G-Dragon is dating or has dated Kiko Mizuhara, and also a lot of fans believe there is something between him & Superior, or him and Seungri. TOP has similarly had rumors. There was one, a while ago, about some girl he was supposedly dating at one point (a model or actress, and I’m very sorry, but I don’t know much more about it.) A lot of people also speculated about his relationship with John Lee, a Korean feature director he was hanging out with a lot for a while, and of course, his relationship to G-Dragon. (Some people also ship him with Daesung, but I don’t think very many people actually think they’re a couple. I think most people just like how secure they seem. I could be
I've always start opposition to parasocial-leaning kpop discussions very interesting because it feels like trying to ostracize peanut butter from jam. Practically every kpop group under the sun makes huge amounts of content specifically designed to foster parasocial attachment more than any other industry I can think of. Idols are paid to be performers but they're also paid to kindle parasocial stanning. Kpop would absolutely not be where it is right now and would stare and function very differently if it wasn't built up into the parasocial escapist fantasy it is now (and has been for a verylong time).
I can understand that everyone has their boundaries and I can understand discomfort with this street of speculation, and it's not love I don't own my own (those "weight loss journey" videos that are thinly disguised body shaming and slam diet romanticization all over youtube and the community of people engaging with them squick me like crazy)
