In "My manager–the secretaries who are too prickly for me," Yunho of TVXQ confessed for the first time since his debut that he once wanted to marry his girlfriend.
On the 14th episode of the SBS variety show "My manager–the secretaries who are too prickly for me," "passion Mansour" Yunho appeared as the sixth "my star" and for the first time candidly revealed his views on dating and marriage.
When Lee Seo-jin asked, "You're 40; don't you ever want to rest?", Yunho replied, "I don't want to set age limits. I feel like I don't have much time left, so I burn harder," showing his characteristic passionate personality. Then Lee Seo-jin suddenly said, "People change after getting hurt once. You have to date intensely so you can't get out of it," and asked, "Do you date hard?" Yunho answered without hesitation, "I've had dating scandals. My dating periods tend to be long," honestly.
When Hyoyeon said, "I'm the loyal type, so my relationships last long," Yunho nodded and said, "I'm loyal too." Then Yunho made a sudden confession. "I originally wanted to get married early. So I told Chairman Lee Soo-man at the time, 'I like someone now,' and 'I will get married,'" he revealed. In particular, Yunho said, "In my twenties I wanted to protect the person I liked. The chairman said, 'Everything is fine but have children later'... in the end it didn't go my way," sharing a bittersweet love story.
Above all, because this was his first mention of marriage and dating since debut, past dating rumors were reexamined. It was very unusual for Yunho to directly mention marriage and specific past relationships for the first time since his debut.
After this remark, his past dating rumors are immediately being revisited online. During his career, Yunho has been linked in dating rumors with Seo Yea-ji, Yoon-i, and Park Soo-jin. At the time, Yunho explained about Yoon-i and Park Soo-jin that they were "close friends, just best friends," and he was reserved about the Seo Yea-ji dating rumor, saying they were "just colleagues."
All three denied dating, so none were acknowledged as official relationships, but regarding Yunho's comment on the show that "it was a relationship in my twenties where I even thought about marriage," netizens are wondering, "Who was the person he dated then?", "If the scandal was more than 10 years ago, could the dating rumors at the time be a hint?", and "This is the first time I've seen Yunho talk about dating like this."
Considering that he turned 40 this year, the "girlfriend he wanted to marry" that he mentioned is presumed to be a relationship from more than 10 years ago. On this episode Yunho revealed a surprising side, showing new charm as "a man who would immediately report to the company for the person he wants to protect," both in dating and marriage. Immediately after the broadcast, SNS reactions included, "This is the first time I've seen Yunho this honest," "Declaring marriage — that's amazing," and "What kind of person was she?"
