Kapanlagi.com - The name Yunho TVXQ has recently appeared in various news, starting from a violation of health protocols that led to other scandals related to this second generation K-Pop idol legend. This certainly evokes various reactions from fans and netizens.

Many fans and netizens are surprised by the number of scandals revealed about Yunho TVXQ. Because, so far Yunho has been known as a person with a very clean image. Well, for those of you who missed the news about Yunho TVXQ's scandal, here's a brief overview.

1. Violating Health Protocols

Earlier this month, Yunho was arrested for violating the Infectious Disease Prevention Act amid the pandemic. The idol under SM Entertainment was caught breaking social distancing rules, drinking alcohol after curfew at an illegally operated adult entertainment venue in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam, Seoul.

According to exclusive reports from MBC, Yunho was one of at least five people who were drinking at adult entertainment venues after 10 p.m. local time. For your information, 10 p.m. is the curfew for restaurants and bars allowed to open during this pandemic.

2. Fleeing When Caught Visiting Adult Entertainment Venue

Furthermore, MBC also reported that Yunho attempted to escape from the police after being caught violating social distancing rules. It was also reported that Yunho tried to flee from the scene after his acquaintance caused a diversion by creating a conflict with the police.

However, these accusations were strongly denied by SM Entertainment. Additionally, the police clarified that Yunho did not attempt to flee from the scene. They stated that some of Yunho's acquaintances protested but immediately complied after being informed that they were obstructing the police and could be prosecuted.

3. Buying a Building

After the health protocol violation case unfolded, scandals involving Yunho started to emerge. It was reported that Company A purchased a building in Pungnam-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul for 16.3 billion won in 2016.

The representative of the company, Mr. Jung, is the same as Yunho's father. Furthermore, the company's address is also the same as Yunho's home address. Specifically, it was reported that Company A had no connection to the rental business prior to 2016.

4. Tax Avoidance

Regarding the purchase of the building, some suspicious netizens say that this action can be used as a shortcut to obtain tax deductions by bypassing the system's loopholes. When a real estate company owns a house, acquisition tax and property tax are reduced, and a higher mortgage recognition rate is applied compared to individuals in the case of mortgage loans.

People who own many houses are subject to higher tax rates because low capital gains tax significantly reduces the comprehensive real estate tax burden. In addition, houses owned by companies are not included in the number of personal properties even when calculating taxes, which can significantly reduce taxes.

5. Abandonment of Pet Dogs

Not only that, Yunho was also accused of leaving his pet dog at a training center for three years or even more. On March 12, a post on an online community said that Yunho admitted to sending his dog to a training center after one year, but the dog was never seen again for more than twelve years.

On one occasion, Yunho explained that he would move to a house with a yard so that he could live with his dog. However, netizens found evidence that fans have not heard the latest news about the husky named Taepoong and Yunho has not moved to a house with a yard.
