Yunho's children's book release raises people's eyebrows

Jung Yun-ho, better known as U-Know Yunho of K-pop duo TVXQ, will be releasing a children's book on Sept. 20, raising some eyebrows as he made headlines after violating social distancing rules at an escort bar in February

?

Ok. Does this seem in-line with Yunho generally, pre-scandal?

[gathyou]

Pre-scandal, yes
Clean image (at the time), rags to riches childhood story (family hit by the economic crisis, training while having very little support by doing odd jobs and couch surfing, multiple failed debut attempts - then TVXQ), very big emphasis on hard work (he's consistently been described as a workaholic) and loyalty to SM.
He really threw everything through the window with this scandal

I thought it was gonna be a book about social distancing. This is fine?

[broadcities]

idk this seems a bit too much? his book sounds boring though and gives me a bit manchild feels

[gathyou]

Maybe not the best marketing/promotion strategy for a comeback after being caught fleeing a non-socially-distanced hang out in an escort bar but ok...

[rennehollic]

Oh wait, it was an escort bar??

[gathyou]

I think it was described at an "adult bar" but isn't that simply an euphemism?

EDIT: went back to the article to check, and it was described as "an illegal adult entertainment establishment that only members can enter" = idk if it's an escort bad, but it's DEFINITIVELY sketchy
