The member of the group JUST B, Bae In, has declared his coming out while revealing his sexual identity.
On the 23rd, a video of Bae In declaring his coming out during an overseas tour performance has become a hot topic through online communities and social media.
In the video, Bae In said during the JUST B world tour 'JST ODD' LA performance, "I am proud to belong to the LGBT community." 'LGBT' is an acronym used to describe sexual minorities in and out of the LGBTQ rights movement.
Bae In's coming out is the first case of a member of a Korean male idol group coming out. In this regard, the agency stated to OSEN, "As it pertains to his personal privacy and sexual identity, it is difficult to provide a specific stance."
Meanwhile, JUST B, to which Bae In belongs, debuted on June 30, 2021, with the mini album 'JUST BURN.' The group is composed of members from audition programs such as 'The Fan,' 'I-LAND,' and 'Under Nineteen,' and last year, they appeared as 'The Crew One' in 'Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE.'
