You know i was wondering how the k-netz in the game will react to F!Lee Seol with F!Mc confirmed being a couple you know? 🤔 Tbh im not mad if you put the k-netz comment in the game sounds ruthless you know bcs it seriously is in their nature on daily basis lol 💀

This is an interesting question and while I'm leaning towards writing it one specific way, I'd love to hear more people's opinions on it before I decide anything final.

Long answer below:

As it is, I wasn't planning on F!LS and MC's relationship going public. The important people would know about it including both of your managers/friends and other close friends. Korea can still be considered a socially conservative society and even if there are slowly more gay characters in dramas/films, there aren't many actual celebrities who are out. There is the comedian/restauranteur Hong Seok Cheon who is probably the most famous out gay celebrity but he couldn't appear on TV for 3 years and faced/faces discrimination. Even this year, the Korean Pride festival was denied a venue in Seoul in favour of a Christian youth concert.

For actors, particularly of LS and MC's popularity and particularly women, to come out as LGBT, that would effectively destroy both of your careers and possibly cause a national outrage. It could lead to petitions to the Blue House (Korea's White House), physical protestors, and some seriously abusive comments. We joke that netizens can be harsh online but there are already irl examples of how they can go too far. While there can be negative comments in the story in the future, there's a limit to how negative they'll be.

So I was planning for a more veiled romance in the end where for the public, it'll have like "oh they're such good friends" / "and they were roommates~" vibes. But for LGBT groups, they might pick up on the sapphic vibes and silently root for them.

Those are my thoughts on the matter but then again, this is a game so I don't necessarily have to make it so realistic and could write a happy ending where you guys come out. IDK I'm open to hearing thoughts on this.

Here's a playlist I made on Spotify of every single K-Pop idol, group, and soloist who are openly LGBT that I could find. If I find more, I will update the playlist with that artist's work added in. If I don't find any other openly LGBT K-Pop artist's work and I do happen to find songs that have LGBT themes instead, I will update the playlist with those songs.

Would anyone be interested in a playlist with openly LGBT J-Pop artists too?

This playlist includes the following (so far):

Harisu, the first trans female idol in K-Pop. She's the OG. She was an entertainer during first gen. It's only appropriate that all of her music is here.

Choi Han-Bit, a trans woman who was formerly from the second gen girl group Mercury. She's a singer, actress, and model.

Lady, the first and only girl group made up of all trans women. They're from early second gen and were fairly short-lived. They were inspired by Harisu.

Maman/Magolpy, the first openly LGBT idol ever. She's a lesbian. Maman got kicked out of the entertainment agency she was under due to her coming out. She has not been active in the music industry since 2015.

Jiae, a soloist formerly from the girl group Wa$$up. She's openly bisexual.

Som Hein, a soloist from School Idol. She's openly bisexual.

Holland, a soloist. He's openly gay. He's probably the first idol you picture when you hear "LGBT idols in K-Pop." He's the best known one on this list.

Marshall Bang/MRSHLL, a soloist. He's openly gay. He's another fairly well-known LGBT artist in the K-Pop industry.

Aquinas, a soloist. He is openly bisexual.

LIONESSES, the first and only boy group (so far) made up of all men who are openly LGBT. All the members are hidden except for their leader, Damjun. Kanghan, one of the members, is a drag queen.

QI.X, the newest one on this list. The first group in K-Pop where all the members are openly genderqueer. All the members, aside from JiGOOK (who uses he/they pronouns), use they/them pronouns.

The only openly LGBT artist in the K-Pop industry that I couldn't find on Spotify is Kwon Do Woon. He's a Korean trot singer who's openly gay. He came out during his tenth anniversary. Do Woon was the first active celebrity to come out as LGBT since Hong Seok Cheon, an actor who came out in 2000 and is still the most prominent openly gay celebrity in Korea.

The playlist is linked here! Enjoy!
