KATSEYE Doesn't Care About Korean Backlash — Megan Comes Out, Fans React
During a livestream on June 6, Megan — member of the multinational girl group KATSEYE — boldly came out as bisexual. “I want to come out. I’m bisexual,” she stated confidently, ending months of fan speculation.
The moment instantly went viral, not just for the reveal, but for what it represents. Megan is now the second openly bisexual member in KATSEYE, following Lara, who came out back in March on Weverse.
Fan Reactions :
Fans didn’t hold back — Twitter, TikTok, and fan forums were flooded with love and celebration:
“Truly a global group 🌎❤️”
“Megan came out too?? I’m crying 😭😭”
“Congrats queen!! 🏳️🌈👑”
The reaction? Pure support. It’s rare to see this kind of openness in K-pop, and fans are here for it.
My HONEST OPINION 🐝
Let’s be real — K-pop idols have always played it safe when it comes to sexuality, mostly because of harsh backlash from conservative netizens.
But Megan and Lara? They’re part of a new era. It helps that KATSEYE is aimed at the U.S. market, not Korea, so they’re clearly less restricted by traditional K-pop industry standards. HYBE and UMG knew what they were doing when they created a group like this — global, inclusive, and unbothered by outdated expectations.
What Do You Think?
Are Megan and Lara paving the way for more openness in K-pop? Or is this only possible because KATSEYE isn’t Korea-focused? Let’s talk in the comments 🐝👇
