About the Rumors Surrounding Taichi Kokubun
The rumor that Taichi Kokubun is gay is something I’ve definitely heard before. To be honest, I always feel a bit anxious when it comes to such rumors. Whether true or not, I believe his charm remains unchanged.
Actually, when I was working part-time at a judicial scrivener’s office, there was a senior colleague who was a fan of Kokubun. I often heard interesting behind-the-scenes stories from his programs. One day, this colleague shared an amusing episode, saying, “Did you know Taichi said this?” Apparently, his frequent natural remarks on variety shows are his way of lightening the mood around him. However, for us, that spontaneity is his biggest charm, and we were always laughing. I wouldn’t say I’m a huge fan of Kokubun, but I have great respect for his personality and his effort to entertain those around him. Speaking of which, there are many moments when I find myself laughing while watching his shows. Especially his expressions and reactions when he makes a mistake are so endearing that it makes me involuntarily say, “How cute!”
What’s the Truth Behind the Rumors?
In the end, whether Taichi Kokubun is gay or not is something only he knows. Media and online rumors can sometimes distort the truth. Even if he were gay, I think what matters most as a fan is enjoying his work and personality. I’ve also been asked at my part-time job, “Why do you care about such things?” It’s true that perhaps it shouldn’t matter to us. But still, it’s hard not to be curious. After all, humans are naturally interested in each other’s private lives. Finally, if anyone reading this has interesting stories or experiences regarding rumors about Taichi Kokubun, I’d love to hear them in the comments. I’m looking forward to chatting with everyone!
