K-POP star Hansol recently came out as asexual.
Hansol, of the group ToppDogg, came out via an Instragram livestream, Gay Star News has reported.
“I have been thinking a lot,” Hansol said.
“I’m asexual. Asexual. I don’t like anyone, anybody.
“I just like myself. I’ll probably never get married. I just like my friends and family.”

“Toppdogg’s Hansol was so brave to come out as asexual,” wrote one person. “Most people forget that asexuality exists.”
