JUST B member Bain recently came out as gay during the group's LA concert, and fellow member Siwoo has shown his support.

On April 24, Siwoo shared a message on a fan communication platform, saying, "Byung Hee (Bain) was amazing today. I applaud his courage," and added, "I was watching backstage and it brought me to tears."

He continued, "Knowing how hard and painful it's been for him made me cry even more." He added, "I already gave him a hug. This tour has been such a happy one," and expressed his support.

On April 22, during JUST B’s JUST ODD world tour stop in Los Angeles, Bain publicly stated, “I’m proud to be part of the LGBTQ community,” drawing support from fans.

Previously, former Wassup member Jiae came out as bisexual, and HYBE's global girl group KATSEYE member Lara revealed she is gay. However, Bain is the first male idol group member in Korea to publicly come out.

JUST B’s agency briefly responded to Star News, stating, “It’s a personal matter,” and declined to comment further.

JUST B debuted in 2021 as a six-member boy group. They released their digital album 'JUST ODD' in March and are currently on tour in North America.
