U-Know, also known as U-Know Yunho in Korea and Yunho in Japan (ユンホ), is a distinguished artist who gained prominence as a member of the iconic male duo TVXQ! Formed in 2003, TVXQ! started as a five-member group featuring Hero Jaejoong, Max Changmin, Micky Yoochun, U-Know Yunho, and Xiah Junsu. The group’s monumental debut on December 26, 2003, saw them perform “Hug” and “O Holy Night” on an SBS BoA and Britney Spears special, leaving an indelible mark on the K-pop landscape. The years that followed were marked by TVXQ!’s meteoric rise, but the group faced challenges in 2010 when Hero, Micky, and Xiah left due to legal disputes with their agency, forming the trio JYJ. Despite these changes, U-Know Yunho persevered, making his mark as a solo artist. His Japanese solo mini album, “U Know Y,” released on July 8, 2015, showcased his versatility and garnered praise from fans and critics alike. U-Know’s journey continued with his Korean solo debut on June 12, 2019, when he released the mini album “True Colors.” This marked a triumphant return to the K-pop scene, as he displayed his growth as an artist and the depth of his musical artistry. Prior to this, U-Know fulfilled his military service obligations by enlisting in July 2015 and was officially discharged from Yangju’s 26th Mechanized Infantry Division on April 20, 2017.
