If an image speaks a thousand words, then these pictures suggest that Jo In-sung is channeling his feminine side a bit too much for my masculine tastes. Maybe he is feeling a bit shy at the screening of the movie, Dirty Carnival at the 2007 Pusan International Film Festival on October 8th, or maybe he is revealing his true self.
Pop in:
Who pops it best? Kwon Sang Woo or Jo In sung?
Jo In sung looks good in his jeans
Who has to enlist in the army this year?
he looks like a softy in this one though
he gives of the gayvibe
he looks like he needs to go pee
his neck is entirely to long
…a closet queen?! LOL
I don’t think he’s GAY. he’s just soooo metrosexual.
But..if he is.. I wouldn’t be surprised.
gaydar activaaaaaaaaate.
As much as I love Jo In Sung, I gotta admit that he does have that metrosexual look in these pics ….
Uh…is that LIPSTICK????
Sorry, I have yet to understand what people find so attractive about this guy…???!
uh yeah.
he looks gay in these pics.
i hope he isn’t though
because that hot bod would go to waste.
Wow.. No love for gays, huh?
What the hell.. he’s metrosexual. Why isn’t it considered a ‘waste’ when someone is already taken -and- straight?
Can’t people be how they wanna be and not what they should be according to the ridiculous high standards of society? Geez, choose your battles wisely.
Just because -you’re- straight doesn’t mean you can think so highly of straight people over metrosexuals or homosexuals. It just shows how people are ignorant and homophobic towards others.
I will still love him even if he’s gay
i think he’s finally found his vulnerable side, and is clinging onto it for dear life! why? it made him a far better actor (in the past he was just a strapping pretty-face with charisma, but couldn’t access his inner well of emotions. now it’s been erm, “unleashed”.)
anyway, hella funny to see him grasp his own big thumb, a microphone’s Big Round Head, and generally bending forward like an accomodating lamb — let your imagination run wild
he does a mean BYJ impression in pic #3 tho!
Why?! Why?! Why are is lips so red and shiny?! Did he look in the mirror?!
Is there a new lipstick for men?
What is UP with the makeup?
Men need to be men, I’m sorry, but I am REALLY not a fan of this metrosexual thing going on right now.
Real men can be men and still have good hygiene, too, the two factors aren’t mutually exclusive.
Ugh. TOTAL turn-off.
jo in sung is… wearing skinny jeans!
i must admit, i like his sense of style (you want a guy who dresses sharp, not sloppy), but it does give off a somewhat metrosexual feel (the belt needs to be replaced pronto!). is it because of the hair? either way, he ain’t lookin’ so bad.
um, very shiny red lips no?
NO doubt Jo In-sung is good looking, but I don’t find him attractive at all, he is not the type I consider a MAN among MEN like Joo Jin Mo, he looks odd on the pictures that were coming out lately, is he paving the way to something big …….?
gayest korean ever.
nah, those are just a selective set of very awkward pictures.
lololol You do know that not every man has six pack abs and likes women right? I mean jeez, why are people like “I HOPE HE ISNT GAYYYY”? You’ll never have him, so it doesn’t matter. What, the only time Korean stars can be gay is in fanfics? That is so stupid. I’d actually be happy to see a gay person in the media doing something other than drag shows. How can his body be going to waste if he’s gay? Not only is that close-minded, but also selfish in a way. What, men can’t use bodies? That doesn’t even make sense. Whether it’s a man or woman, if he does hook up with ANYONE, chances are it’s not you. Absolutely ridiculous.
hey, Takuya Kimura wore lipstick. how about that?
i find Jo In Sung looks good here.
bae yong jun also wears lipstick.
he is
EITHER WAY.. JO INSUNG HAS ONE OF THE BEST ASIAN NOSE BRIDGES I’VE SEEN…ITS QUITE IMPRESSIVE CONSIDERING IT WAS OBTAINED FROM A NON-SURGICAL METHOD;)
these are just among those awkward pictures taken.. i’m sure we all have awkward pictures we’d rather keep than show to others…
Love him in “A Dirty Carnival”. Sheesh, he does look pretty suspect in his more recent photos. I don’t think he’s gay, I just think Asian men seem a bit more feminine than most of us are used to. I just think and hope the recent influx of seemingly gay Asian entertainers is just a difference in culture. I would be so disappointed if it’s not.
Well it’s good to know PopSeoul hates gays, since so many of the articles lately have gay hate vibes or hints. Wow Popseoul. You’re amazing.
maybe because he plays such a bad ass in ‘dirty carnival’ that he is showing his more feminine side here. really like his acting and he is a very good looking human being.
i hear that his next movie is going to be a historical piece where he place a gay or bisexual character. so maybe he is getting into his role, but if he is gay why should that matter? he is a awesome actor and that is what counts.
articles about his next movie with the same director of dirty carnival.

meant to say plays a gay or bisexual character.
what the heck is he turning into?? and is that lipstick?? i mean super red lipstick too! gay gay gay!!! he’s just not hot anymore… i guess that’s to bad!
that’s too gay.
Haha the last picture of him walking is funny. XD
i’m not sure what everyone else’s experiences are but i have both gay and metro guy friends and there’s definitely signs and differences. i wouldn’t be surprised if a lot more korean (or other asian) celebrities are gay but just can’t be open about it b/c of their fanbase.
what the hell has he transformed himself into?
Homophobes.
POPSEOUL IS DEAD!!
I don’t know if you guys have a new writer or what but this blog has gotten ridiculous lately.
Goodbye
Awkward pics!
Oh, come on. Jo In Sung’s sexuality is one of the worst kept secrets in the Korean show biz world. I love him to bits, he’s hot. Period. Sexuality shouldn’t play a part in his hotness. If you need a should to cry on In-sung - mine is always available. Yum.
*beep…. beep…. beep…beep beep beep!*
LOL
Guys wear lipgloss NOT lipstick!! DUH!!
Like to make ur lip healthier and goodlooking(:
GOD!!
And, I think he looks adorable here :p
PEACE!!
He’s not very good looking in the first place.
i’m starting to believe he’s gay now
What I think is male models are like that: they look gay, but it’s just their post. He’s probably been a long time model so he doesn’t remember how to pose the “manly way.”
But still I luv JIS.
funkoffan…
hold on, rewind…need to spell it out for me…”Jo In Sung’s sexuality is one of the worst kept secrets in the Korean show biz world”…so he IS gay?
again..hes hot..but come to think of it I havent heard any scandals concerning him with other actors..anyways this is rnadom
Mmh-hmm, Kimura Takuya looks sexy wearing lipstick. This guy’s lips are too thin to be pulling it off.
it does not matter that he’s gay. he is a good actor. I look forward to his next gig.
Is he wearing lipstick? so red, YUCK!!!
HE’S NOT GAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
( Sorry, I Just Need to scream that out) I love him to pieces … hahahah HWAITING IN SUNG !!
he’s just too shy… not like the writter told…
ah… and he neva wear lipstic, it’s a pure color of his lips, you can see directly on the clip related to this event, he bites her lips smtime but those color of red still there…
whatever. he’s still damn hot gorgeous.;)
i think he doesn’t smoke.
it’s obvious that his lips is naturally red.
What happened to him lately T_T?
i think he needs to go potty
sexychikita, He does smoke actually .. but his lips are naturally red…
maybe he’s channeling the feminine side lately for his new role? he’s metro but i like him anyway. =D
Peepoo
From what I’ve heard (which comes from VERY good sources) our lil In-sung is (apparently) gay. Not only that but I’ve also heard a few (*cough*) rumours about a few other male celebs here. I don’t wanna say their names cos I think this website would crash with the amount of “Nooooooooooo!” comments being left at once.
However, some of them would shock you. Yes, I am a gay man living in Seoul and this is not about ‘wanting’ them to be gay - cos there are a lot that I ‘want’ to be gay but aren’t….
Regardless, Jo Insung is a hottie. Yet despite all the comments about his feminine pose HERE - you all would do him in Dirty Carnival - in a second. So, just focus on him as the uber hottie he his and not about which way he swings.
Drool…..
no he is not GAY… he is a hottie!
ahhh….now I can totally get it…
girls ar so messed up, they always fall for the gays then delusionally think they r st and hot and in denial when they r sending clear signs beeping off the gaydars.
Maybe the impossibility of doing him since he’s gay…that’s what’s luring the girls in.
He’s totally NOT gay!!! I dont see anything wrong with the picture!!! My golly!
He’s always so hot and masculine in his acting. I don’t understand why he always looks so feminine in real life. Either way, he’s HOT!
Let’s do some Democracy here shall we..
I have read all the replies and the VAST MAJORITY THINKS that In sung is NOT gay (including myself).
I’m sorry to funkoffan and the “minority” who thinks the same but until it is OFFICIALLY revealed on the news or in any “truly” reliable sources (as opposed to your “secret” reliable source) in the internet for example YAHOO or GOOGLE OR MSN, I will not believe he is gay.
Yes, I think these things are revealed. For instance, Lance Bass from N’Sync admitted in the media that he’s gay. Other Filipino actors as well admitted they’re gay (Rustom Padilla). It is possible to happen that they will admit it. But as far as I have surfed the net about In Sung, this site has ONLY been the one that raised this issue.
Thank You.
man. you’re not supposed to judge a book by it’s cover. DO YOU EVEN KNOW THE GUY? tsk3. Only people with low IQ and EQ judge people with just what they see.
…I guess so. It’s okay if you think he is, but isn’t it too early to judge by those pictures? He is sure got feminime face and because he is tall (???), and maybe at the moment was a bit nervous (see how he held the mike). No doubt his fingers are too long that’s why he seemed to be more feminime…
Even A very handsome actor also sometimes looks bad in the pictures (a beautiful girl will also look ugly when … in the toilet)
The conclusion is well… he is a bit feminime.
Don’t pigeonhole sexuality; people are not pigeons! And what if he is gay? He’s done a lot better than do straight people for crying out loud! I’d rather be a gay philanthropist than a straight scum. Sexuality alone doesn’t determine who you are.
ehhmmmmm…
i’m love jo in sung….
coz org’a tuch keren beud….
dh gt perfect abizzz….
pokoke.. gue suka beud….
thankz…. very much
is he really a gay???..if he is,what a big waste…huh!!
i think he’s indeed charming in that Pic..
so manly yet so vulnerable and shy..
it doesnt mean that you’re a man, u cannot show the weak side of you.
i think he’s just so boyishly cool with the pic above.
so metrosexual.
you guys are really amazing, just who do you think you are to judge a person base on his look and the way he acts on public,do you really know him personally to say that he is gay?!
i think JIS is a shy,polite and humble person and you guys who are saying that he is gay is a douche.Whether he is gay or not i will still love him bcoz he is talented,beautiful inside and out and has contributed a lot to people by means of entertainment,while you judgemental people are a parasite in this world.
he does have a feminine pose LOL and a pair of lips cherry colored ROFL i’m a girl and i don’t have that.. so being enviouse to female celebs for their beauty isn’t enough now!! we have to worry about male stars as well!!
ah too much to worry about i don’t even know where to begin?!
umm… i really don’t care if he’s gay or not so sod off!! all i know he’s very talented and i love “Dirty Carnival” instantly when i watched it. and i’m glad he paired up again with the same director for the new film “Frozen Flower”, which i know gonna be a huge hit.
in my humble opinion, his case is much like what jake gyllenhaal is facing… lol.
and oh yeah. he just didn’t look good in that hairstyle. i prefer him with shorter hair like in Dirty Carnival. some people just don’t fit long hair.
