i mean, he dated a transgender ftm before debuting in monsta x, and he has openly said that he doesn't care about gender as long as they can make good ramen.
he can either be genuinely gay/bi/fluid, or he could just be queerbaiting like all those dickhead kpop boys.
part of me thinks he genuinely doesn't care about gender. in fact, i was surprised he put the girl pronouns in 'open mind'. from 'losing you' and his past statements/actions, i thought his solo music would not be targeted towards a specific audience. but then again, it could just be the homophobic kpop industry refusing to let him express himself freely.
I always got curious/open minded from Wonho so I wouldn't be surprised if it came out that he liked guys one day.
Yeah and he’s openly support gays I remember a q&a someone came out to him and he said it was amazing and that he loved them. He also said he doesn’t care if male fans call him husband he said girls can do it why can’t he let guys. I think he might be queer in some way or another or just a really good ally.
Did he take part in writing open mind as well?

I know I don't follow a lot of kpop groups, but I can only 2 or 3 other examples where a male has used gender neutral pronouns to refer to love while all the others were adamant in female gender usage so where are you getting this queerbaiting from?

i genuinely respect the lgbt idols.. but queerbating in kpop is a real serious issue.
the industry itself is super anti-gay, yet they profit off of fanservice and the "will-they, won't-they" sexual tension among male idols.
not to mention, there's also idols who are homophobic yet always kiss up and act gay on their male friends in front of the fans.
it's honestly annoying at this point that kpop stans want to call their faves "gay icons" just because they almost kissed and when they're not gay. in fact, they're just using that shit to be "woke" and "cute".

lmao it's fitting wonho's debut is titled "open mind"
This is still true but I'm glad it's at least less prominent than it used to be. I'm not even gay but I was shocked at the hypocrisy of certain male idols that debuted in the 2000s.
Especially the guy in this picture who loves to pick and choose when he's Christian.
New idols seem to be much more understanding people than the ones that came before them on average.

exactly. i don't like to jump on the super junior hate train, but fuck siwon. he's one of the prime examples i'm talking about.
but it shouldn't be a tactic for selling albums & gaining fans. i think the only time i didn't care much was when shinee did it, but that was basically just cause those guys were real genuine about supporting the lgbt community and it didn't seem like they did that as "fanservice".
my cousin's cousin was in SM and he said there is a ton that people do not know about because they have to keep things so hush hush. IMO I think they need to realize its 2020, 1 in 5 people are gay, 1 in 8 are trans, lets just let people be who they are, make good music and move on.
Easy to say. But being gay in Korea is still pretty taboo. Not to mention. You need to seek the boyfriend fantasy as a male idol (the reverse for female idols) so that is just not gonna happen until the entire idol system changes first.
So are you all say Wonho queerbaits, or do you think he’s actually part of the LGBTQ+ community.
Wonho could be straight, bi, or curious but I don't think he queerbaits at all.

well to me i don't necessarily consider it queerbating?
what sets him apart from the queerbating idols is that wonho genuinely seems to support and understand the lgbt community, along with monsta x. something about how he is and what he does doesn't strike a fake chord.
he's been outspoken about understanding the community and (maybe) being a part of it. he seems like he knows what he wants and who he wants to be.
the only other idols who i personally think actually support the lgbt community are shinee, seventeen, nct, day6, and got7.
and maybe bts now, but with the exception of jimin.

Well he's Korean, so I'd put money on no he's not circumcised.
What do you mean "maybe bts now, except Jimin"? I haven't seen or really heard anything that would make Jimin out to be homophobic unless it's all a massively internalized self-induced homophobia. Because let's face facts: I can name a handle of the idols in some of the popular boy bands that ping to high heaven and I think everyone would agree Jimin pings for most.
i mean out of bts, taehyung is possibly the mostly likely to be gay with all the gay subtext in his songs, especially stigma. i see jimin and j-hope to be more like flamboyant frat dudes.
