TVXQ!'s U-KNOW Yunho recently opened up in an interview with the men's magazine
Arena Homme+
for its August issue. He confessed, "I've been doing the same job for 20 years, but it's still tough and challenging. However, I've found that there's definitely something rewarding about just holding on."
During the interview, when asked about his idea of a 'cool person,' U-KNOW Yunho described someone who "doesn't question or hesitate but continues on their path." He admitted that he strives to be that kind of person. When asked about the 'fourth lesson' of life, he responded, "It's to keep hanging in there and then enduring some more."
U-KNOW Yunho emphasized, "Who would have thought that a work like 'Thank U' would get noticed again in this way? In the end, opportunities come to those who persevere. It's okay to take a break if things get tough, as long as you come back. To do that, taking good care of oneself is also crucial."
Meanwhile, U-KNOW Yunho has recently taken on a transformative role in the Disney+ series

, playing a gangster from Mokpo, Jeollanam-do named 'Jang Beol-gu.'
He introduced his character, saying, "The character description might read 'Beol-gu, all show and no substance,' but there's more to him than meets the eye. Despite being treated like a troublemaker his whole life in his neighborhood, he has a strong resolve to succeed and prove himself someday."
For this role, U-KNOW Yunho revealed that he frequently called friends living in Jeollanam-do to practice the accent and emotions.
