==Early life==
Yunho was born and raised in [[Gwangju]], South Korea. He has one younger sister. Several members of Yunho's family worked in the legal industry, and Yunho's own childhood dream was to be a prosecutor.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.soompi.com/news/dbsk-yunho-reveals-childhood-dream|title=DBSK Yunho Reveals Childhood Dream|date=May 4, 2012|access-date=May 4, 2012|publisher=[[Soompi]]|archive-date=May 7, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120507035928/http://www.soompi.com/news/dbsk-yunho-reveals-childhood-dream|url-status=dead}}</ref>

When he was in middle school, he and a few other friends formed the dance team A+, and they competed in various dance competitions around the country.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} After winning a prize at the 1st Annual SM Best Competition in 1999, Yunho signed with [[S.M. Entertainment]] and officially started his training in 2001.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}}

His family, who suffered greatly from the [[1997 Asian financial crisis]], were initially against his decision to become a singer.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} To provide for himself while he trained in Seoul, Yunho took up various part-time jobs in the city, such as doing [[snow removal]] in the morning and working as a waiter at night.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} He spent most of his high school vacations in Seoul training and only returned to Gwangju for school.{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} Sometime later, Yunho suffered a hormonal imbalance in his throat and underwent surgery, which affected his vocal cords. After losing his voice, Yunho considered giving up his training.<ref>{{cite news | publisher=[[Nate (web portal)|Nate]]|url=http://news.nate.com/view/20121002n16271|title=유노윤호 "데뷔 전 목수술, 가수 포기할 생각했다" 고백|trans-title=U-Know Yunho almost gave up singing|access-date=April 26, 2014|language=ko}}</ref>

Throughout his years as a trainee, Yunho was put in four temporary groups—all of which later disbanded. In late 2001, at the age of fifteen, Yunho was featured as a rapper and backup dancer in [[Dana (Korean singer)|Dana]]'s debut single "Diamond", and briefly toured with her.<ref>{{cite web|title=신승훈-유노윤호, 상반된 콘셉트로 입담 대결 '불꽃'|trans-title=U-Know Yunho, voluble nuclear confrontation with the concept 'flame'|work=10Asia|url=http://www.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2008111100103104765|access-date=March 8, 2009|date=May 13, 2004|language=ko|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170418082728/http://www.asiae.co.kr/news/view.htm?idxno=2008111100103104765|archive-date=April 18, 2017}}</ref>

In 2002, Yunho was selected to be a backup dancer for [[Shinhwa]] and was chosen to be part of the project boy band Four Seasons, which consisted of fellow trainees [[Kim Jae-joong]], [[Kim Hee-chul]], and [[Kangin]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=이승록 |date=2023-06-10 |title=김재중, 김희철한테 화분 받는 사이였네?&hellip;&quot;추억의 포시즌 멤바&quot; |trans-title=Jaejoong, you were getting a flowerpot from a Heechul Kim."Members of the 4 Seasons" |url=https://www.mydaily.co.kr/page/view/2023061009485909173 |access-date=2025-04-29 |website=마이데일리 |language=ko}}</ref>{{citation needed|date=August 2017}} The project group was dropped when Yunho and Jaejoong joined TVXQ in early 2003.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}}

Yunho's stage name "U-Know", a nickname he has been using since high school, reflected Yunho's position as the leader, who was always trying to understand others.<ref>{{cite web|title=[피플] 가요계 인기 돌풍의 핵 東方神起|trans-title=TVXQ singers of the popular nuclear blast|url=http://m-talk.inews24.com/php/news_view_mtalk.php?g_menu=380600&g_serial=114236|work=enews24|access-date=February 11, 2009|date=May 13, 2004|language=ko|archive-date=March 6, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090306120510/http://m-talk.inews24.com/php/news_view_mtalk.php?g_menu=380600&g_serial=114236|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==Music career==
{{Main|TVXQ}}

===TVXQ===
The final line-up of TVXQ consisted of Yunho, [[Changmin|Max Changmin]], [[Kim Jae-joong|Jaejoong]], [[Park Yoo-chun]], and [[Kim Jun-su]]. The group officially debuted on December 26, 2003, during a [[BoA]] and [[Britney Spears]] showcase. They performed their debut single "Hug", which became a hit in [[South Korea]]. TVXQ have been releasing number one albums in Korea since their second studio album ''[[Rising Sun (TVXQ album)|Rising Sun]]'' (2005), which was also the album that gave the group their first Daesang (대상), or Grand Award, at the [[Mnet Asian Music Awards|Mnet KM Music Festival]]. Their fourth Korean album ''[[Mirotic]]'' (2008) was the Album of the Year at the 2008 Mnet KM Music Festival and the 2008 [[Golden Disc Awards]]. The album features the group's most well-known and best-selling single, "Mirotic".

In 2005, TVXQ made their Japanese debut with the single "[[Stay with Me Tonight (TVXQ song)|Stay with Me Tonight]]", debuting at number 37 on the [[Oricon Singles Chart]]. They grabbed their first number-one single in Japan with "[[Purple Line (song)|Purple Line]]" (2008). Their fourth Japanese album ''[[The Secret Code (TVXQ album)|The Secret Code]]'' spawned two platinum-selling singles "[[Dōshite Kimi o Suki ni Natte Shimattandarō?]]" and [[Share the World / We Are!|Share the World]]" (2009), with the latter being a theme song for the anime ''[[One Piece (1999 TV series)|One Piece]]''.

TVXQ was plunged into legal turmoil when members Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu filed an injunction against their Korean agency in July 2009. This led to their much-publicized departure from the group in 2010. A year later, Yunho and Changmin returned as a duo, releasing albums in both Korean and Japanese. As a duo, TVXQ set sales records and concert attendance records in Japan, becoming the country's best-selling and highest-grossing foreign music act.
