6 Performances From TVXQ's YunHo That Prove He's More Than An Iconic Dancer

SM Entertainment

Many things have changed within the landscape of K-Pop. With the rise of technology and social media, the genre, and the culture behind it, has become globally accepted. Now, you can hear K-Pop songs played on local radio stations, in shopping malls, and in specially-made merchandise shops. It's grown into a vibrant entity that looks to remain for a long time.

While there are new groups constantly rising up in hopes to create their own legacy, there are various idol legends who have been around for years. One veteran idol who is still active today is TVXQ's U-Know YunHo. As the leader of the iconic idol group, he's gone through high highs and low lows. He has always instilled a feeling of pride in Cassiopeia (TVXQ's fandom name) all over the world, as he continues to perform at the highest level. Many will know of YunHo's fiery passion for dancing and how he sets the stage on fire through his slick dance moves. However, he is an incredible vocalist who can hold his own and hit every note.

Let's take a look at some performances that prove YunHo is more than a passionate dancer and an all-around artist.

1. Heartrending Cover Of 'The Western Sky'

As the video fades in and we see YunHo looking down with an expression of sadness, the stage is set. His first note, and the ones that follow afterwards, are filled with such crushing sadness. His voice immerses fans completely and possess a rejuvenating component. YunHo shows he has the power to heal the brokenhearted and bring waves of immense comfort.

2. Sentimental Rendition Of 'When Love Goes Away'

If the acoustic guitar intro wasn't enough to bring tears to your eyes, then YunHo's voice surely will. His vocals are imbued with an undeniable warmth that resonates in the very depths of your soul. His ability to draw you in with such tenderness speaks to his experience and utter talent as a veteran idol.

3. 'I Believe' Solo Performance

In most K-Pop groups, while members have the capability to both sing and dance, they usually show an overwhelming mastery in one area. However, when it comes to TVXQ, they often show that they're true all-rounders. Although the legendary idol group's songs are made for more than one person, with his skills, YunHo is able to carry out this performance of 'I Believe' all on his own. He hits high notes, shows incredible technique, and portrays a stability that leaves you speechless.

4. Feeling Tipsy From This 'One Glass Of Soju' Cover

Through this performance, YunHo shows that no alcohol is needed in order to feel tipsy when he's around. He causes fans to become drunk on his singing alone, offering this touching cover of 'One Glass Of Soju'. As you continue to listen, you'll find yourself swaying along to his lovely vocals, hoping this magical feeling won't end anytime soon. Although, that might not be a problem, as one listen might not be enough to take in all of YunHo's spellbinding vocal charms.

5. Legendary 'Mirotic' One Man Performance

If there was a K-Pop hall of fame, 'Mirotic' would certainly be housed within those walls. It's absolutely legendary, from composition, choreography, and even fanchants. Such a powerful song is difficult to perform with just one person — but not if your name is U-Know YunHo. He's completely in his element as he performs 'Mirotic' all on his own. You can hear his voice remain stable, belting out ad-libs and high notes that would make any Cassiopeia happy to be called his fan.

6. Nostalgic Rendition Of 'Hug'

This 2022 version of 'Hug' came as a special present for TVXQ fans all across the globe. Even for newer fans, it carries a sentimental nostalgia that can be felt by all. With fellow member ChangMin by his side, YunHo brightly shines, providing a positivity that has remained since their debut. For even non-fans, it will be difficult to maintain a straight face and not smile while listening to this beautiful performance of 'Hug'.

YunHo might be an excellent dancer, but his vocals are top-notch, speaking to his never-ending talent and skill. These are just a few performances that prove he's a vocal legend within the K-Pop scene.
