Abstract

Drawing on interviews with 17 K-pop fans from Australia and the Philippines who identity as LGBTQ+, this article explores and theorizes the role of K-pop fandom in the production of knowledge concerning gender and sexuality. Through an analytical approach sensitive to the affective discourse produced by fans, this article establishes that K-pop fandom operates as a queer space which normalizes queer sexuality and gendered performance through the production of feelings of security, attraction, and relief. Further, analysis of the LGBTQ + fans’ discourse uncovers that the androgynous gendered performances of K-pop idols facilitate fans’ queering of heteropatriarchal and heteronormative ideologies.

K-pop 粉丝团在澳大利亚和菲律宾 LGBTQ+ 粉丝中塑造性别和性知识的情感作用

本文通过对来自澳大利亚和菲律宾的 17 名 LGBTQ+ K-pop 歌迷的访谈，探讨了 K-pop 粉丝在性别和性知识生产中的作用，并将其理论化。通过对歌迷产生的情感话语进行分析，本文确定了 K-pop 粉丝团作为一个同性恋空间，通过产生安全感、吸引力和解脱感，将同性恋性行为和性别表现正常化。此外，对 LGBTQ + 粉丝话语的分析发现，K-pop 偶像的雌雄同体性别表演促进了粉丝对异性恋和异性恋规范意识形态的阙如。
