She said something along the lines of 'I have different sides of me' and she mentioned 'LGBT'

So, if this was a coming out by Sunmi which is certainly a huge possibility and this was a hint, what type of girl do you think she would be attracted to? I think she likes Seulgi and Chungha! They would be her type if I had to guess.

Honestly I have no idea. I never payed attention to that. I trust you on this topic.

Haha thanks
LGBT could be anything involving LGBT though, so it may mean that she's not actually gay and could be Bi or Pans, or she could be just an ally (which I pretty much doubt tbh, especially not when she gets close to so many of her female dancers and other female idols, so I doubt she's completely straight), but this is a huge step in the right direction and is another idol who is for LGBTQ.

Yes. It would be really surprising to see her giving more explanation because of the awaited blacklash.

wait, Sunmi said "I have many different sides of me like dorky and.. LGBT" - i mean, what else can that mean? i feel like she literally just came out (she seemed a bit nervous too) but, even if she didn't, it's amazing to have her support. i remember talking with a bunch of other lesbians on a diff website and she set all our gaydars off because of some of her behavior so i wouldn't be surprised if she rly is LGBT lol

it's unfortunate that korean society is so conservative when it comes to this that it's hard to tell what Sunmi means but, regardless of what she's trying to say, i really respect her and appreciate her for speaking about it so openly.

Yes I think it’s that too. But maybe she was trying to say that she is an ally and couldn’t find her words in English. It’s more likely than she is lgtb herself, I guess.

Awh man, I hope she doesn't get a lot of backlash in Korea. Anyways she's a true lgbt icon!

 

[hearteyes]

so proud of her <3

Yes, I honestly think she just wanted to get it out there, that is why when she said 'LGBT', it was in a kind of careful way, like she really wanted to say it but she seemed nervous about saying it.
For such a big idol, this is a big risk.
Many other idols have shown their support to the LGBTQ community, but this was a bit different. It reminded me of when Yoohyeon came out as liking people and not just one gender, like she was eager to correct the MC and say 'no, I like PEOPLE'. Yoohyeon isn't as big of an idol as Sunmi is though, so the risk isn't as much for Yoohyeon, than it is for Sunmi, still just as much bravery though.

you didn't listen to her or WG before that?

I did! 'I want nobody nobody but you, nobody nobody but you, nobody nobody, nobody nobody...'

The way she says it is really precious! Regardless of what she means by having a side of her that is LGBT, I'm happy she showed strength in saying it given the unfortunate negative stigma it still holds in South Korean social standards.
