애: ae ("love")
Because of the influence of Confucianism (and Christianity), the Korean society does not "tolerate" homosexual behaviours. |
Why do Koreans believe there are no gay Korean people? I have been told this by both men and women. They claim homosexuality is a Western phenomena and there are no Korean homosexuals living in Korea. Homosexuality exists in every country in the world, but Koreans deny its existance in the own country? Are they extremely homophobic? |
| We know that there are gay Koreans among us. However, they are not as open as they are in many other countries. Public displays of any kind of affection - straight or gay is frowned upon. It is just the way it is in our society. The Koreans that you talked with were either very naive or embarrassed to admit their existence. A very large part of our culture is "saving or losing face." If a Korean were to admit that there are gay Koreans then they would lose face. A denial is their way of saving face. Homophobia does not seem to enter into the equation. Often times you will see men in mixed clubs dancing together. Not slow dancing but usually in a group. And I'm sure you have seen many Korean women walking together and holding hands. Those things are all a part of our culture. We know there are gay clubs in Itaewon but most of us, if asked, would say "I don't know, its not my business." |
How do you say "you're gay" in korean? How do you say or write "you're gay" or something like that in korean or german? |
| I believe it is "당신은 게이" or when Romanized (excuse me if I mispronounce here and there, but mostly this will be correct) Dangsineun Gaei. |
Where can I find a Korean gay boy? I want to date a Korean guy, because I like the culture and Korean men are usually so sweet and romantic. But the problem is that many of them are in the closet because of their strict families... So I donno what to do to make my dreams come true and find a Korean boy to share my happiness with |
| Don't be fool by kdramas and kboy bands. It's all for show and rating. Just saying. |
Can someone please tell me a good gay japanese,korean or taiwanese drama or movie? oh and only with girls in it.
i have already watched spider lillies and i loved it. |
These are the ones I know of other than Spider Lilies, as mostly they're more aimed at the male gay relationship.
Chinese -
Fish and Elephant en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_and_El…
Hong Kong -
Butterfly en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_(…
Then there is the Japanese drama Mendol-Ikemen Idol with a few lesbian scenes but it's not of the genre of Spider Lilies. www.mysoju.com/mendolikemen-idol/ |

I am a gay guy that like super junior and I have other friends that are bi/gay. My straight male friends thinks the whole group is gay and just laugh at their music videos. Thanks! |

Any Gay Korean Guys out there at all?!? I feel a little silly asking this on here....i might end up deleting it.
But are there any decent gay asian (preferably korean) guys out there?

I've been going here for two years. I do get out there, and keep myself busy. But i feel like giving up this year. :( |
| Aww hey bruh, don't feel silly I'm a Bi Black guy that's interested in interracial dating with Asian men. So yea it's really hard to find any Asian guys that is willing to give me a shot. Hey your right where in the hell are the single Gay Asian Boiz at and if so are they open minded because I'm really attracted to Asian men. lol I know how you feel searching for a Gay open minded Asian brotha is like searching for a rare gem somewhere off in Africa. lol I'm sorry if I wasn't any help but I think Cali or NY maybe your best bet since these places have a huge Asian population. *sighs* Oh well good luck on the search because I'm lookin' also take it easy. |
Is the Korean singing group Shinee gay? They are the cutest guys ever, but I keep hearing rumors about them being gay! |
No! They are absolutely NOT gay! The rumors you heard are completely false.
SHINee is just very close with one another. They're like brothers.
Its very common for Korean boy groups to be close like they are; with skinship and such. When people from Korea see them hugging and such, its just normal to them. They think nothing of it. When people from the USA see that, they automatically think 'gay', but that is definitely not the case in Korea.
SHINee is honestly not gay. Just close :) |
