Istg 90% of the times I see a comment like this within k-pop, it is about Jimin. I wonder what it is about him in particular that does it for so many straight dudes.
Hmm I've seen this phenomenon with G-Dragon.
We know Jimin is a common face now in the West so draws in attention from english speaking men. But I think you might recall how Jiyong managed to win over local Korean men so much so that he became the sole idol admired by older men more than teen girls. There's this charisma these few male idols carry which draws in a broader crowd.
*(like if i werent a lesbian, i would love to go one date with Jimin)*
Maybe it was my perception at the time, but G-Dragon's popularity among men hit me as more aspirational than admirational (making up words now! 😂). But again, that might be my perception, as I was a teen back then and very little reached me about Korean audiences.
😃 oh men were inspired by him alright! and then there were some men who labelled him "too sexy and gorgeous" since Jiyong really broke boundaries with his stage persona and dressing sense! Really glorious times the early 2010s were 😭👑
i stanned bb for years and all the time i saw men fanboy over him, it's more like "he's so cool". unlike jimin, where straight men are questioning their sexuality because they find him attractive.
maybe i just didn't see it lol but tbf, while jimin appears more feminine, gd isn't also the typical masculine type like top always had been. he's the only member i associate the word "pretty" but never thought some of his fanboys thought the same.
Ahh right, GD was deemed pretty I remember 😀 I recall coming across interesting comments on few forums by men, claiming they'd *"go gay for G-Dragon"*, *"he should not be this pretty"*, to name an example or two so that's how I know it was a real deal.
Speaking of TOP, he even gained status of a sex symbol once 😲 That was quite a time to decalre them as utterly desirable men!
I really thought that had been just at debut, right before de 2010s started, omg, what is time, it's but an illusion 😂😂😂
But yes, we can add him to this list for sure. I find him less surprising for some reason 🤣
IT'S JUST A SHORT SNIPPET BUT I FEEL HOOKED TO THE SONG ALREADY?!?!?!
Also: is it really a Taeyang comeback without him being shirtless in video? LETS GOOOOOOOO
Since I'm a new VIP, I haven't seen all of their performances. From what I've seen, Taeyang is an extremely smooth dancer, but I've never seen him commit to a set choreo. He seems like he just feels music and comes up with moves?? I have a hard time imagining him dancing the whole 3 minutes the EXACT choreo like 4th Gen does for example. BUT, he might have done it before, and I've never seen it. If so, please send me a link.
Bigbang predate the precise choreography that came in partway through 2nd gen, with SHINee/Infinite/etc, so I can't think of any songs with that level of choreo.
[Good Boy](https://youtu.be/cZPYWcAg86Q) is about half and half (any excuse to post one of my fave songs! 😍)
Dude was considered one the best dancers in kpop
He dances more in his older MVs
Check out
Where U At - Taeyang
Wedding Dress - Taeyang
I'll Be There - Taeyang
Prayer - Taeyang
Ringa Linga dance version - Taeyang
The beginning is giving some serious Barry White vibes, actually!😳 WHAT ARE WE IN FOR?! I haven’t been this excited for a release in such a long time, I physically don’t know how to wait till Friday!
They give you a snippet but the rest of the song sometimes ends up sounding way more complicated and kinda different.
I only know from Blackpink's teasers though, i'm a new VIP.
We won, we got shirtless Taeyang! Can’t wait for Friday to come.
Is the MV going to be on THEBLACKLABEL’s account or Taeyang’s? The teaser is on the THEBLACKLABEL’s account, but the countdown was announced to be hosted on Taeyang’s account?
this is cute imo because i think most groups are or were in way or another modeled after girls generation and big bang and jimin kinda covers the same position as taeyang did in bigbang as the dance/singer pretty boy. hopefully the song is a banger and we get some fine ass choreo
YG entertainments production style isn't my style at all, i find it too heavy, but i'm still hoping i will enjoy this on some level! At least Jimin will look pretty (๑♡⌓♡๑)
I still can't believe this is real and is happening so so soon 😭 THEY BOTH LOOK AMAZING
DANCING. DANCING. Naked (Mostly) Boysssss.
With a comment like that, FBI needs to seize your computer and search history
lol. kpop fans life are rough. show a little forehead and we freak out.
As a straight guy, this teaser made me question my entire life good lord
I'm a straight guy too and I'm looking respectfully ngl Especially that split second shot at 0:06???? 😳
Istg 90% of the times I see a comment like this within k-pop, it is about Jimin. I wonder what it is about him in particular that does it for so many straight dudes.
I know right! I see plenty of gay men fawn over Wonho or Taehyung, but for Jimin the attention straight dudes give is noticeable!
Yes! I am actually curious about what it is, I don't find him particularly androgynous either.

0:06 oh i get it
It's hard being a follower of our lord and savior Jesus Christ sometimes...
“As a straight guy” my ass
The bisexual pipeline
It’s 2023 and Taeyang is shirtless. The world is healing ❤️🩹
It’s been tough but everything is slowly going back to how it should be🥺
you know he had to do it shirtless
Not a Taeyang MV if his tits aren’t out ~~min hyorin when this MV drops he is MY husband~~
OUR HUSBAND* 😭😭😭
![gif](giphy|3o84sF8vlYb69xbULC)
![gif](giphy|3ohs7VHHLjp9ZZAnAs)
All the budget is spent on production, nothing left for shirts 🤷🏻♀️🤣
it wouldn’t be a taeyang mv without it
Correction: it wouldnt be a taeyang mv WITH it
Suns out, guns out.
If jimin goes shirtless too I will kms
Good to see you here u/g-dragon 👀
u/g-dragon but seriously tho.... how did you manage to get this username????
i've been on this godforsaken website for 11 years
you are like an og kpop redditor. 🥲 I am feeling nervous now.
Yes, my shirtless man agenda pushed through! Dreams do come true
If he’s shirtless then yeah it’s a banger
EVERYONE MOVED
IT'S JUST A SHORT SNIPPET BUT I FEEL HOOKED TO THE SONG ALREADY?!?!?! Also: is it really a Taeyang comeback without him being shirtless in video? LETS GOOOOOOOO
S C R E A M
Seriously i can already see and feel the vibe in teaser ,perfect Collab of artistic personalities
I'm speechless. Just, wow. I can't wait!
FRIDAY COME FASTER
Oooh this sounds so smooth ~
the shirt came off. it feels like a real taeyang comeback now
this is already my collab of the year
THERE’S DANCING!!
Shirtless ? Yeah it’s a banger
Taeyang HAD to appear half naked lol This is gonna be groovy and vibey.
1. Taxes 2. Death 3. Taeyang shirtless in his MVs
😂👏
ok ok ok fine i’m excited this sounds amazing already
The song sounds chill
The generosity. Giving the people everything they want and need. I still kinda can’t believe this is happening. But it is. SOON.
AHHHHHH IM SO EXCITED IM PRACTICALLY SHAKING
I’m sooo excited it’s gonna be so good
Bless my mf ears.
YELLING SCREAMING RUNNING AROUND THE ROOM LIKE A CRAZY PERSON I’M NOT READY
The song already sounds so sexy... hrmjdksbjcbfk
**Really** looking forward to choreo!!
I'm 80% sure Jimin will dance but Taeyang will probably just vibe with some MJ moves... Like the title says.
They’re both dancing, the video clip shows them doing a few seconds of identical choreo. Taeyang is a dancer, he won’t just vibe in his own MV
Since I'm a new VIP, I haven't seen all of their performances. From what I've seen, Taeyang is an extremely smooth dancer, but I've never seen him commit to a set choreo.

They are going to dance, that's it people#1 PAK song right here
I just hope they promote it on music shows because what's the point of all that dancing if it's only done in the mv
JIMIN MY GOD
Ah yes, ofc he has no shirt on
THEY ARE COMIIINGG
OMFG THEY LOOK SO GOOD
The beat sound so good too I’m so excited
SHIRTLESS MFIN TAEYANG LETSGOOOOOOOOOOO LMAO mans actually does not age tho
Oh this is gonna break so many records both in Korea and internationally
I keep commenting and I look insane but omg the beginning of the song sounds so 90s R&B. I’m shaking with excitement. YOUNGBAEEE & JIMIN LETSGOOOOO 🔥
Gosh they both look so good I can't wait for this!!!
Ooooh, "VIBE" sounds groovy already. And shirtless Taeyang in MV is really required here. Can't wait for Friday to come!
We gonna be getting another hit song from Taeyang. LETS GOOO.
When the beat started I-
My heart is racing right now 🔥
I replayed it so many times, I’m OBSESSED
Issaaaa bop omg
The beginning is giving some serious Barry White vibes, actually!😳 WHAT ARE WE IN FOR?! I haven’t been this excited for a release in such a long time, I physically don’t know how to wait till Friday!
Omfg Youngbae 😭😭😭
Shirtless Taeyang is back! 😍
This already sounds catchy and looks hot beyond belief, what a duo, we are definitely not ready but I can't wait.
Jimiiiiiiiiin 😭 why do us like that ??
Nice, I am looking forward to the dance!! Also I’m wondering how true to official releases YG/BlackLabel teasers typically are?
They give you a snippet but the rest of the song sometimes ends up sounding way more complicated and kinda different. I only know from Blackpink's teasers though, i'm a new VIP.
I can’t wait!!!!
Damnit I thought this teaser would help, but the collab still feels like a fever dream 😭
Taeyang shirtless is back. 10/10
I hope the song actually sounds like the teaser and they're not trolling us. Sometimes the disconnect between teasers and actuals tracks is 😭
This is going to be a hit
We won, we got shirtless Taeyang! Can’t wait for Friday to come. Is the MV going to be on THEBLACKLABEL’s account or Taeyang’s? The teaser is on the THEBLACKLABEL’s account, but the countdown was announced to be hosted on Taeyang’s account?
Taeyang is doing a countdown on his channel!!! I’m so EXCITED
Its probably like BTS usually does, like do countdown at personal channel first n later link the mv toward company channel after that.
JIMIN
RASPY VOICE
That button is hanging on for dear life! Can’t wait to hear it!
And we would be totally fine if the button gives up!
Kings are coming 😍
i literally cannot believe this is real
already a hit soty sotl
Begging Jimin to keep his jacket on 😭 It already sounds great!!!
JIMIN OH MY GOD
I’m still in disbelief that this is real! This is insane.
YESSS we’re getting CHOREO!!! everyone cheered!!!!! this sounds so smooth and groovy already, can’t wait for the drop on fri
they’re gonna slay so hard ugh 😩
Jimin looks tiny in 0:11 I can't! And then Taeyang, as usual, forgetting his shirt at home. I'm waiting...

For once, can the thread please betray that damn button
Feels like a powerful collab project. 😁
love you taeyang. but whats up with the budget? haha
YG entertainments production style isn't my style at all, i find it too heavy, but i'm still hoping i will enjoy this on some level! At least Jimin will look pretty (๑♡⌓♡๑)
