One of the reason why I like Dive is they discuss things that are "taboo" like mental health, lgbtq etc. Its nice to have an outlet that openly discuss about these things

[BittyGuyy]

Sometimes I don’t understand how some kpop fans will openly support two guys giving fan service but when someone is ACTUALLY gay, they give them hate. It makes no sense whatsoever.

[csvanderkieft]

Not gonna lie. When he debuted my first thought wasn't even about him being the first openly gay idol. I just wondered if he was dutch due to his stage name holland.

[hjvcixp]

He faced some serious challenges to be in the industry. No entertainment company would work with an openly gay artist. No agency wanted to sign him due to his desire to write music about dealing with discrimination against LGBTQ+ people (how ironic). He had to completely fund his first single on his own with money he saved for two years. He is a brave and hardworking person. ❤️

i really want holland to become more known-- kpop stans will always be delulu about idols acting "gay" and then totally ignore an actually gay kpop idol. Holland deserves better.

What an awesome person he is. Anyone that’s against him is just a coward. He’s confident and a really cool guy. He’s opened the minds of South Korea so others gay men or women can feel brave too. He’s obviously a really nice person just by watching him for a couple minutes. Good luck and blessings to him.
When he comes to the IS he will be very comfortable and welcomed.

I hope that there is a day, hopefully not too far off, that idols can be more open about their sexuality and relationships ❤

[ceegee]

Thank you, Dive, for giving equal opportunity and helping the world grow. Also, HOLLAND!!! <3

[clbert]

Congratulations to Holland! I hope he continues to do well. And hopefully someday everyone will realize that people are just people, no matter who they love.

[iamJKOD]

I liked him the first time I saw him & heard his song. I felt like I'd like to be friends with him right away. I hope he gets more recognition & thus create more space for others to just be themselves without being judged. Love lots from Philippines, Holland! 💚

HOLLAND is so brilliant. It takes so much courage and sense of self to be open like he is, especially coming from a highly conservative place where such things are hush-hush if not actively silenced. So much respect for him T3T

[jinsomi]

i hated the fact that when i introduced holland to some of my friends to listen to his songs back then when he just debuted, they immediately shut me down for supporting him; so i ditched them afterwards and am living a happier and more carefree life now 😃

edit: woah 1k likes 🙏🏻😭 happy pride month gays 🏳️‍🌈💕🫂

I love Holland. I think he would be so fabulous to hang out with. He's funny, smart, and kind. What more could you ask for?

[emaaabdullahii]

Holland is the best omg ...his voice is

[lynettejones]

Love this guy who was out there with his view and emotions. Stay courageous and never have negative thoughts. Beleive in yourself and who you are

[shnderlla]

I really appreciate Holland (Also he's so pretty!!!)

[chikoritamochi]

I'm happy Korea slowly opening the door for it like making BL series and movies ✨😌

[notminghao]

I really am so happy for holland and happy he knows he has many supporters❤

[MultiFandomStayTiny]

Im so proud of him and im glad dive studios is here so he can talk and open up about his experiences.

[anatcaspi]

I don't know him but I think he is brave to follow his heart and be who he is in a country that is conservative about LGBT issues. I'm proud of him and wish him all the best . I wish more will be as brave as he is.
