 Evolution of SMP...U-Know Yunho's 4th lesson with 22 years of sincerity (comprehensive)



U-Know Yunho from TVXQ will start his fourth lesson.

A press conference was held at the Grand Ballroom of Sofitel Ambassador Seoul Hotel in Songpa-gu, Seoul at 2 p.m. on the 5th to commemorate the release of U-Know Yunho's first solo album I Know.

U-Know Yunho came out with his first full-length album 22 years after his debut. The first thing seems to be exciting, he said.

'I Know' contains a total of 10 songs, including the double title songs 'Stretch' and 'Body Language'. The songs in the album have a unique composition in which two songs are paired with one theme, a fake and a documentary, and a song expressed from two perspectives under the concept of 「Fake and Documentary」.

U-Know Yunho said "It might have been better if I had released it earlier, but I think I can greet you as I am now. In the past, there was a burden on the stage, but the audience expanded the range of empathy. If U-Know Yunho, the artist that the public sees, is a fake, it is a documentary that I look into myself. I thought it would be the artist's own story that the public is curious about after showing a lot of appearances for more than 20 years. I thought about what kind of message I could throw, and I wanted to honestly tell you my grievances and concerns about how the fans' favorite bright and healthy appearance would be fake. Pairing the two appearances, they talk more about Jung Yun-ho.

'Stretch' is a pop genre song with intense electronic sound. The lyrics that contain the inner feelings and meanings of dance and stage are paired with 'body language'. 'Body Language' is a dance song that combines blues funk retro hip-hop and gives a pleasant vibe.




U-Know Yunho is a song in which the performances of "Stretch" and "Body Language" are clearly divided and the lyrics are paired. I am proud that I am evolving SMP. The choreography was expressed so that it could be expressed as a meme. Not only performance, but also lyrics and music videos are paired. "I wanted to tell you what kind of worries the artist has for the three minutes he's on stage visually and acoustically, and it takes a lot of courage to talk under the colorful lights."

Since his debut as TVXQ in 2003, U-Know Yunho has been dominating as the "K-pop king". Not only TVXQ but also as a solo singer, 'thank you', which was released in 2021, has exploded its presence this summer, riding the SNS algorithm and backtracking for the first time in four years. Thanks to this, TVXQ received the 16th Korea Popular Culture and Arts Awards Presidential Commendation.

U-Know Yunho said "It is rewarding to receive a commendation because TVXQ has a good influence in the K-pop industry. Luckily, our team was able to experience from tape to CD digital sound sources. I'm happy to greet you in the field for that long period of time."




It has always been curiosity that has led me. Recently, we have tried new things together with the exhibition. Every time I do that, I think 'Should I be satisfied here or should I find something else?' and in the end, I gain strength thanks to the fans. I wanted to hear more stories while communicating with the people who came to the concert with their own stories"Thank you to the fans.

As for 'thank you're backtracking and 'lesson meme're loved too much than I thought. Some memes start to tease, but how to solve them is also important, and many people helped me. I worked really hard to solve 'thank you' in a philosophical way with a 19th-grade music video, but it was fascinating to see it become a caricature. My nephew in elementary school looked at me and said 'Thank you Uncle' and went somewhere and said 'Thank you'Hyung'Lesson'. Thank you for having another nickname. I'm so grateful to the three rooks for starting it for the first time."

U-Know Yunho will release 'I Know' at 6 p.m. that day and begin his activities in earnest. Prior to this, the comeback countdown live will be held from 4:30 p.m., introducing the new album in person and communicating with fans.

U-Know Yunho "I want to show sincerity. I put the most emphasis on the part that brings out my deep story even though it's colorful."
