TVXQ member U-Know Yunho will be releasing his first solo album.

An official from TVXQ's agency SM Entertainment stated on the 3rd, "U-Know Yunho is diligently preparing his solo album with a target release in June. We ask for your great anticipation."

While U-Know Yunho has included solo songs on TVXQ's albums several times, this will be his first official solo album in his 16-year career. Expectations are high for an album that showcases U-Know Yunho's passion.

In particular, as U-Know Yunho has boasted powerful performances and unique artistry through solo songs such as 'Complicated,' 'Puzzle,' 'Witch Hunt,' and 'Drop,' interest is also growing in the concept of his new album.

It is expected that U-Know Yunho's dedication, earning him the nickname 'Passion Maniac,' will be reflected in this album as well. Attention is therefore focused on the music industry in June.

Meanwhile, TVXQ held their solo concert at the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Arena in March and have announced various music activities for this year. U-Know Yunho appeared as a special MC on KBS2's new entertainment program 'My Little Old Boy' which aired its first episode on the 28th of last month.
