TVXQ's Yunho preps first solo concert, gifts manager a custom suit on 전참시

TVXQ's Yunho is 24 years into his career. He still rehearses before sunrise. The July 18 episode of MBC's 전지적 참견 시점 caught him mid-preparation for his solo concert, running through Thank U and the new track *Time's Tickin''.

His daily habits left even his closest friends stunned. Over a year without missing a single fasting cardio session. One page of a book every day. A "passion diary" where he logs ideas. Coins saved since his trainee days, earmarked for charity. When Dindin saw the full picture, he had to ask: "Do you have debt? Why do you live like this?"

His manager Byeon Si-woo, who's been with him for five years, received a custom-tailored suit as a gift. Yunho sends handwritten letters on every holiday and birthday without exception. Byeon said the whole thing made him feel he "needed to serve this hyung well."

The episode also featured Yun Nara, known as 술 빚는 윤주모, who placed in the TOP 5 of 흑백요리사 2. Traditional brewing washes rice 100 times. She washes it 300 times. Right now she's experimenting with bamboo shoots and Korean black raspberry to develop new varieties, hand-crafting her own cups and bottles along the way. She studied film at Seoul Institute of the Arts and was in a hip-hop club in college—a path that makes the jumo identity feel like something else entirely.

Watching Yun Nara's segment, Yunho reflected: "To express one's own scent, time and pain are necessary. I think I'll watch today's video multiple times."

전지적 참견 시점 airs every Saturday at 11:10 PM on MBC.
