On March 16th, DCInside Yunho gallery released their second statement. They wrote, ŌĆ£We strongly urged SM Entertainment to restore YunhoŌĆÖs reputation by taking strong legal action against MBCŌĆÖs Newsdesk. However, it is a shame that the agency chose to stay silent and take no accounts on the matter.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£On the 15th, we also asked for the agencyŌĆÖs clear explanation on the suspicion over Yunho purchasing a building as a family corporation,ŌĆØ they continued. ŌĆ£We understand that finding the best way to save taxes in a capitalist society is a reasonable spending habit. However, the gap between the reality and his comment on MBCŌĆÖs Dunia: Into A New World leaves us questions.ŌĆØ Last month, the police arrested Yunho for violating the social distancing regulations at a bar in Seoul. The singer personally apologized, and things seem to have settled down. A few days later, MBCŌĆÖs Newsdesk reported that the bar was an illegal establishment. They added that his friends got into a physical brawl with the police to help Yunho flee the scene. SM Entertainment soon refuted all allegations and claimed that Yunho never fleed the scene and only visited the place per his friendŌĆÖs request. However, public criticism against him grew by the minute. As a result, the advertisers, including Shinhan Financial Group and Ottogi, quickly scrubbed YunhoŌĆÖs images from their banners. On the 15th, Yunho had another allegation against him ŌĆō purchasing a building as a family corporation. Corporation A, where YunhoŌĆÖs father is named the CEO, bought a building in Pungnap-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul, for 16.3 billion KRW (about $14,423,513) in 2016. What sparked a heated debate is that corporation A used to be a company that had nothing to do with the real estate business until 2016. ┬Ā Source (1)
