Netizens Discuss Yoo Ah-in’s Controversial Social Media Posts amid Gay Assault Charge

A post titled “Yoo Ah-in’s Instagram Received Special Attention”was published on the Korean forum ‘theqoo’ on July 26. It quickly gained traction, amassing over 82,000 views and 400 comments.

The subject being discussed involved several images posted on Yoo Ah-in’s Instagram, such as a picture of him lying on the ground with his legs apart, a partially unclothed man, suggestive food items, and a post where he mentions buying lubricant and discussing leg openings.

Despite being accused of molesting another man, many netizens still believe that Yoo Ah-in is essentially in a “glass closet,”meaning that he is publicly perceived as gay without officially coming out. This revelation did not shock them, as it aligned with their existing beliefs about the actor.

Here are a few remarks from internet users:

To be honest, it was widely known that Yoo Ah-in was gay. However, people chose not to openly acknowledge it.
Wasn’t it common knowledge that he had been openly gay for years? He frequently shared pictures of his significant other on social media.
I am accepting of others’ sexual orientations, but he should consider whether it is appropriate to repeatedly post explicit content in a location where minors may come across it.
Wasn’t it Yoo Ah-in himself who denied being gay?
The third picture is so disgusting
The allegation of assault was towards someone of the same sex, so it was disregarded and dismissed without any debate. If it had involved someone of the opposite sex, I believe there would have been strong criticism and an apology would have been issued much sooner.
