Learned a lot from your discussion. Thanks for sharing this.

Very necessary discussion! I learned a lot with this talk, thanks KST 👏🏻

I appreciate that the Korea Times is talking about the lived experience of gay people in Korea. It is heartbreaking that our gay brothers and sisters still feel so invisible and socially ostracized from Korean society. I am half Korean and understand that ignorance about many social issues is deeply embedded in Korean society. I hope younger generations will make a better, more loving and happy society.

Yay! Such an important focus. Thank you for having these amazing speakers and supporting LGBTQ voices❤❤❤

Such an important topic and I hope it will bring a change towards a better society 🫶

don't ever try to oppose ur beliefs unto another country. u must be american cuz america always do this

i just came across this video, so very interesting but it was put out 1 year ago... I would love to see you do a "follow" up, where do things stand 1 year later .has anything changed, to the positive? to the negative? I would love to see where these 3 lovely ppl are today and how their lives have changed....

I'm first❤

This was such an important discussion---and so intelligently (and sensitively) conducted by the excellent host. Many thanks to Tang, Nicolas, and Ivana---three amazing, articulate and brave individuals who are living authentic lives, and being true to themselves. And thank you, Korea Times, for making this happen!

This episode is so great! Thank you for the LGBTQ+ visibility~

lol, Korea Times is the most liberal paper in Korea. On a side note: I worked in a Korean restaurant in the States many years ago. Not sure if he was working legally or not, but one of the waiters seemed like he was escaping Korea because he was gay.

May God help you all.

yesss nico!!! te veo jaja

Cmon, why do you think they call KPop…GayPop?

Happy Pride ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🤍

There is a thriving gay scene in Seoul. I lived there for 6 years about 15 years ago and most of my friends were gay, women and men and half were Korean

@@Dazarabia522 I've lived here all my life and the gay scene is not thriving. the number of anti lgbtqp groups are growing by the day. every university has one, but they don't have an lgbtqp group. during pride month u see mainly foreigners celebrating, meanwhile Koreans of every age protest and give the message "don't bring this to Korea". It is NOT thriving. I know u want people to think that way but no.

Good question! It's polite to offer your pronouns so others who might identify as Trans or Nonbinary can feel accepted to share their pronouns too. ❤
