Growing up in Church, Marshall spent his entire life denying his true identity. After being celibate for so long and in the K-Pop limelight, he finally came out.

I see divorced people being accepted all the time in the church.
00:12
Murderers, criminals are way more accepted than, you know, gay people, lesbian people,
00:17
trans people.
00:18
Like, what's up with that?
00:19
You know, that doesn't make any sense to me.
00:20
You know, that doesn't make any sense to me.
00:42
There's no, like, anti-gay law, but if you do come out, there's a greater chance of you
01:05
being let go from your job or being bullied.
01:09
Generally, it's not viewed as a positive, for sure.
01:17
I never dated throughout junior high and high school or college because, you know, because
01:23
being gay was bad and it was a sin and, you know, I suppressed all of that and that was
01:30
really rough, not being able to experience those things that all your other friends are
01:35
experiencing.
01:36
When you first date, your first kiss, like, it should have happened, like, a long time
01:39
ago.
01:40
I used to call it same-sex attraction.
01:42
I couldn't even say the word gay at that point because I was so afraid.
01:55
Churches must be a place where you can really be yourself and process things, but more often
02:02
than not, it becomes a place where it's oppressive.
02:05
I feel like these days I'm undoing a lot of the things that were kind of bred into me
02:10
since birth, and I'm kind of redefining and relearning what it means to live life and
02:20
the things that I was taught.
02:25
I still believe in God, but I think my definition of God is a lot different than from when I
02:33
was a kid.
02:34
I think God is so much bigger and so much more incredible than we give him, her, credit for.
03:05
So, home is about finding your family, finding the place that you call home.
03:15
For me, it's finding a record label, Feel Good Music, where they accept me for me and
03:22
they accept my music.
03:31
I think it's interesting because they've never had an openly gay person in there.
03:40
Could you imagine if we all looked the same?
03:43
I mean, all those unique things that make us different, whether it be your skin color,
03:50
whether it be the way you speak, whether it be the way you dress or the way you think
03:55
or the things that you like.
03:57
I think it's something to be celebrated.
04:00
When I was a kid, I thought God is love.
04:04
They teach you that.
04:05
But I just feel like love now means something else.
04:09
I feel like love is us.
04:12
It's just the positivity, all the good things in this world.
