namjoon saying that he liked and was impressed by the well-known lesbian movie, Blue is the Warmest Colour.

namjoon stating the reasons as to why he wrote jimin's serendipity with gender neutral lyrics. bts' discography has progressively become more gender neutral over the years.

Stigma by Taehyung and Boy Meets Evil by Hoseok can both be interpreted as lgbt+ (whether on purpose or not). They have left a big impact on lgbt+ fans and we have found the songs to be relatable and a comfort.

namjoon saying he liked the song Same Love by Macklemore and that he enjoyed it twice as much after understanding the lyrics

their love for fanboys! Below are two examples from Jungkook and Taehyung after being asked these questions at a fan sign, and their responses are so kind.

namjoon wrote the lyrics for 'Party XXO', a same sex song for the girl group GLAM.

multiple pictures of the rapline with what appears to be the bisexual flag behind them. although this one ia debatable, i thought it was worth mentioning!

Yoongi's lyrics from his Agust D mixtape and a verse from Cypher Pt.3. COME ON BISEXUAL ICON

yoongi stating in a japanese interview that his ideal type is not limited to a girl. although people have said its a mistranslation, this has been debunked multiple times.

In the BU universe, footage from mvs, comics and highleet reels and more, there are pairings that can be viewed as romantic! Vmon and Yoonkook are pairings that are commonly viewed this way by fans.

a queer artist they've shown support to is kehlani! Namjoon called her an influential female artist, Taehyung also had 'Honey' ( a song with wlw lyrics) on his spotify playlist, and Jimin said that Honey is a song he likes to listen to when he wakes up.

Yoongi wearing a sweater with the quote 'Jack, I swear'. It's a well known quote from the gay film 'Brokeback Mountain'.

more of them supporting lgbt artists! jungkook shows so much love and admiration towards Troye Sivan and he's mentioned him a lot and used a song of his in a GCF, as well as covering 'Fools' with Namjoon. Jimin wore a pair of jeans with 'My Youth' written on them

jihope have also danced to 'Youth' in the Love Yourself Highlight Reel. dance kings!

Namjoon tweeted a screenshot of him listening to Strawberries and Cigarettes. It's a song by Troye Sivan which was featured on the soundtrack of the popular gay movie 'Love Simon'.

After being asked "what love means to them" during an American interview, Namjoon answered in a non-heteronormative way. "boyfriend or girlfriend" (i love him sm)

In a Billboard interview, the boys were asked about their LGBT+ support. Their response is highlighted below!

Whilst accepting the MMA Artist of the Year Award, Hoseok said this:

they have worked with MNEK, who is an openly gay artists! He was one if the producers for the song 'Paradise' from LY Tear. He also met up with Namjoon in person.

All throughout the Love Yourself tour, a lot of armys brought pride flags holding them up at barricade or throwing them onto the stage. As a result, there have been several positive LGBT interactions with all of the members! https://www.buzzfeed.com/ikrd/bts-lgbt-fans-pride-flag-around-world-south-korea
