While LGBT idols are not entirely unheard of, it is still rare for an idol to come out as queer.
Every Idol That Has Come Out As LGBTQIA+ Themselves
Recently, a female idol appeared to share that she has a girlfriend following her divorce.
In 2014, the girl group LABOUM debuted, though member Yulhee left a few years later after dating rumors with F.T. Island‘s Choi Minhwan spread.

In January 2018, news reports revealed that the two were engaged and that Yulhee was pregnant. The couple did not confirm this until May, with Yulhee giving birth days later and the pair having already been legally wed.

The couple had twins not long after, though their divorce was announced in 2023. In October 2024, Yulhee exposed the reasons for the divorce, which included cheating, visiting brothels, and embarrassing her in front of his family by touching her breasts. He denied the claims despite Yulhee providing audio proof.
Yulhee has since continued her career as a solo act, most recently beginning to stream.

In a new interview, Yulhee spoke about her career change and shared news about her dating life.
I wish I had a boyfriend, but I do have a girlfriend. It’s not like I’m intentionally avoiding dating. I know it doesn’t make sense, but that’s just how it turned out.
— Yulhee
Based on her statement, it seems like Yulhee does have a new partner in her life.
