Bain, a member of South Korean boy band Just B, has become the first active Korean K-pop idol to come out as gay, a landmark move that challenges deep-rooted taboos in the country's entertainment industry.

And, as he told South China Morning Post's This Week in Asia in an exclusive interview, a move that came after intense personal struggle.

“I am proud to be a part of the LGBTQ community,” the 23-year-old, whose real name is Song Byeong-hee, declared during a packed concert in Los Angeles on April 22, before dedicating a cover of Lady Gaga's Born This Way to “anyone still figuring it out”.

Bain added: “You are seen, you are loved, and you were born this way.”
