Jung Yeop dismisses rumors regarding his sexual orientation



On July 6th, singer Jung Yeop finally came forth to clear any misunderstandings regarding his sexual orientation.

Brown Eyed Soul’s Jung Yeop from the popular TV show, “I Am A Singer“, was interviewed on this week’s SBS “One Night Of TV Entertainment”, where it was revealed that the main reason for his popularity amongst female fans was his “softness“. Jung Yeop admitted, “I do have a soft spot in me. I like planning dates and events.”

He added, “I once made an album for my significant other which contained pictures I took with my camera of all the places we went together, like seats we sat on together, and the first time we went to a convenience store together. I’m very positive towards love. I feel the most important thing in life, is love.”

When the interviewer began the topic of a few opinions and misunderstandings that have been surrounding the singer recently, Jung Yeop clarified, “There are a lot of people who ask me if I like men. There’s even been a time when it was a related search on search engines.”

“However, I am a male and I like females. I just find it funny when people talk about me in that perspective. It makes me think, ‘Am I really like that?’, but really, I’m a full male.”

~that perspective~

um

i'm like slightly miffed rn, and imagining that your icon is of his face and wishing i could stick a cork in it

[renew.livejournal.com]

So gay men are just partly male?

[eccentricvibe.livejournal.com]

Everything he said... I can't. I guess being gay doesn't make you a real man.

[caribgirl98.livejournal.com]

A lot of people feel this way. Just like being a lesbian doesn't make yo ua full woman..or you are like a man.

Still attitudes like that in America....so you can imagine how bad it is in Korea.

Oh this topic. I can't

[caribgirl98.livejournal.com]

Oh dear.

Why do reporters even ask Korean celebrities this question? It's not like anyone of them will say: "Yes. I'm gay. And now for the weather!"

No. It's not gonna happen. They all always deny it, and that is understandable given Korea's views on homosexuality. So stop wasting people's time and the celebrities time with this question.

And I always laugh at fans who go one about: "Well, Oppa says he is not gay! So it is the truth. My oppa doesn't lie. He talks about women all the time"

Yes! Your Oppa does lie...especially when it comes to this....because your Oppa isn't stupid! Your oppa knows if he ever comes out..he will be shunned and his career destroyed. So Yes, he will talk about women all day every day...doesn't mean he is not gay. This is Korea...not America. Wake up!

I always laugh when fangirls are like "Well oppa said he likes girls!!!" Like honestly you're going to go by their word.

...but really, I’m a full male.”
You are so dumb, fo real.

it's ~Kolea~

[renew.livejournal.com]

BTW dude, Khun's got you beat on the "full man" thing. He's 10000% straight.

[dongsaeng.livejournal.com]

LMAO i just thought about that. thanks for the laugh.

[hansons-bowtie.livejournal.com]

Seriously. If a guy likes other guys it doesn't make him any less of a man, how long will it take for some people to get the memo?

[coffeebang.livejournal.com]

I hate how they make overgeneralized statements like but really, I’m a full male.. They can just as easily say they're not gay without having to sound like a defensive idiot.

[arsinoi.livejournal.com]

If gay people aren't full males how much % are they? 50%? What even...

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

Major side eye here. Tei handled his gay rumours much better.

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

oh I just love how Tei handled his gay rumors, I love him XD

[captainmarvel.livejournal.com]

there's a way to deny homosexuality without going that far *sigh*

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

Even then the XY chromosome does not guarantee that a person identifies as a man.

[tigerointment.livejournal.com]

instead of asking Jung Yeop, why don't we ask Kevin?

[letsrelapse.livejournal.com]

for reals, omona he didn't. "but really, I’m a full male.” jfc.

[icedevil0289.livejournal.com]

yes because gay men aren't real men. smh. Also do people assume he's gay because he's "soft" as he describes himself. idk, that kind of annoys me too because not all gay men are effeminate or soft or whatever you want to call it.

[mele-3-4.livejournal.com]

dude, way to go too far. You can claim heterosexuality without throwing homosexuals under a bus >.>

[jaerotic.livejournal.com]

Korea, much like my culture... still doesn't have terms that would separate gender from sexual orientation. Makes it hard to talk about stuff like these without being offensive. Get with the times.

[jaerotic.livejournal.com]

The last statement was toward cultures such as mine stuck in the past, fyi.

[nortonamo.livejournal.com]

ugh

[taecish.livejournal.com]

he's right i only have half a penis

[xkat-attackx.livejournal.com]

LOL'd irl.

[synykiss.livejournal.com]

To be fair, he was just defending himself.
True it doesn't make what he said any less insensitive, but that's just the mindset of the general korean public.

For all Korea claims to be 21st century, they still seems to have a hard time letting go of thier old school prejudice's.

but yeah, that was just going too far.

[cher-ex3.livejournal.com]

MTE thank you.

[tofucakes.livejournal.com]

oh?

[lenra.livejournal.com]

maybe the translation was off idk but this is a really dumb thing to say

[yolleh.livejournal.com]

I was gonna say this but I thought I'd get bashed for defending him.
I think the translation is off.

[sushi12.livejournal.com]

Denial much???
