Since early age, Hangyeol has experienced gender dysphoria. They share this with their firefighter mother, but are disappointed by her response. Yejun’s mum is a flight attendant for an international airline, and considers herself in the know when it comes to gender-related issues, but when her son comes out as gay, she breaks out in sobs. These two mothers, faced with the unexpected coming-out of their children, come head to head with this new identity of parent of a queer child.

Hangyeol and Yejun’s mothers become members of the ‘Queer Children’s Parents Club’, and give themselves new names: ‘Nabi’ and ‘Vivian’. Recording the journey to change that began here, Coming to You is a documentary shot through a supportive gaze. In 2016 director Byun Gyu-ri – member of PINKS, a group that produces films for the culture and rights of sexual minorities – made a promotional video for the Queer Children’s Parents Club, of which Coming to You was an outcome.
