VIXX's Leo has opened up about alleged "homosexuality" controversy with EXO's Xiumin.
On the 10th, Leo held a V live and stated, "Xiumin knows the password to our house. (Xiumin) is performing. It was a day when I couldn’t perform. While we were making wine (we took such a picture), we have a lot of skinship. It's not a "strange" type of skinship."
He added, "I saw his "I love you" in the morning and cringed and erased it. We're completely "chicken."
On the 6th, Leo posted a "close" photo with Xiumin on his IG captioned, "This kid!!!! I love you." In the photo, the two are smiling happily with their foreheads and noses touching under cozy red lighting."
Afterwards, controversy arose over the photo and he edited the caption to "You punk 🤨!!!."
Meanwhile, Leo and Xiumin are famous for being 'Chin Chin.' Fans who knew the two were close posted comments saying they were "too cute" however netizens responded writing, "this is too close" "the pose is a bit unusual" "Is it BL?" causing controversy over "homosexuality."
