'Top Gay' talent Hong Seok-cheon (55) revealed the core principles he has instilled in his two adopted children.
On the 9th, a video titled "Asking Hong Seok-cheon About Odyssey IMAX's Prime Location" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Pisik University'.
In the video, guest Hong Seok-cheon recalled, "They were my older sister's son and daughter. After she divorced, I felt that our children needed a father. Although I am not their biological father, I believed I could be a good father, so I discussed it with the children and my sister. She was extremely grateful and deeply moved."
When asked if he also gives dating advice, Hong Seok-cheon responded, "I taught my daughter and son from a young age that regardless of who they date, they must always remember these two rules. First is 'No drugs.' If you touch drugs, you will lose control of yourself. Second is 'Use condoms.' That protects you and can also protect your partner. As long as you follow just those two rules, everything else is fine. I told them to go out, have fun, and date freely. I always check by asking, 'Did you use a condom?'"

Meanwhile, Hong Seok-cheon, known as South Korea's first public coming-out figure, recently discussed correcting misconceptions about HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) and AIDS on his YouTube channel 'Hong Seok-cheon's Jewelry Box' with Yoo Jeong-hee, head of the AIDS Management Division at KDCA. The conversation covered health management methods including testing and preventive measures.
Hong Seok-cheon emphasized the importance of regular testing by stating, "I undergo regular HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) tests."
He explained, "Every six months to once a year, I visit a hospital I have designated for blood and urine tests. I must personally monitor my own condition and health status so that I can engage in sexual relationships and a sex life with peace of mind."
Additionally, Hong Seok-cheon highlighted that regular testing is not solely for his own well-being but also represents "a responsible act of consideration for one's partner."
