Kwak Seon-hee, who gained attention through 'Steel Troops W', shared his honest feelings after revealing his love for a same-sex partner. He expressed gratitude for the outpouring of interest and support following his coming out while also urging for the protection of his partner's privacy.
On the 15th, Kwak Seon-hee stated through his social media account, "I sincerely appreciate everyone who has watched and supported my precious daily life and my relationship with the person I genuinely love. I am having such a happy time that it's hard to express in words."
He continued, "In fact, I was just recording the small and cute daily life with my loved one, but it feels surreal that so many people have sent their heartfelt congratulations and support," adding, "I am so grateful that the unexpected interest and love have left me at a loss for what to do."
Kwak Seon-hee revealed that he did not anticipate his relationship to become such a hot topic. He expressed, "I knew I had some level of influence through my appearances on shows, including 'Steel Troops', and my activities on Instagram, but I never dreamed it would elicit such a huge response."
In particular, he emphasized, "As you know, my partner is an ordinary person. I would appreciate it if you would use only my image or pixelate my partner's face when posting news on platforms like blogs or mainstream media that are viewed by the general public," adding, "Even though my Instagram is a public account, I hope you consider it as a space that contains my partner's private life."
Kwak Seon-hee also mentioned, "Many people have used expressions like 'courageous' and 'confident', but to me, it was just a natural part of my record. However, it seems that for someone, it appeared as not hiding myself, and thanks to that, I am perceived as a strong person."
He added, "No matter how love manifests itself, it deserves to be respected just by existing. I sincerely applaud the diverse forms of love that exist in the world," adding, "I hope that people like us will also have the courage about the love they express. We are all people who have the right to be happy."
In conclusion, Kwak Seon-hee remarked, "I will continue to strive to be someone who has a positive influence in various fields such as exercise, freelance modeling, and shooting," adding, "I hope that both my partner and I will fill your daily lives with happiness and health."
Earlier on the 13th, Kwak Seon-hee shared multiple photos from a date with his partner on his social media account, with the caption "Stunning Day by Day and this is who we R -". The photos revealed moments of them enjoying a meal and shopping together, capturing the enthusiasm of fans.
