A *A Gold card holder is not necessarily entitled to an F (or other) Lounge unless that specific lounge is identified with the *A logo sign. Additional info below from the *A website.

Star Alliance Gold Card Holder :

Star Alliance Gold card holders and one guest, have access to any lounge that is identified with a Star Alliance Gold lounge sign when departing on a Star Alliance flight. Note: UA's Star Gold customers have access to US Red Carpet Clubrooms only when they present a ticket or boarding pass in conjunction with international travel (outside the US).

Thank you for your answer.
So, I'm wrong.
Then, I went to OZ business lounge. Even though I was holding a business(op-up) BP and *A gold card, they reluctantly accepted me. They told me my flight was just about to leave, again and again. In fact, I was an hour ahead of departure. Finally, I got out of the funky lounge.
I went to SQ lounge, and it was far better than OZ lounge. I showed my BP and the card. SQ agent said not a single word, but admitted me.
