Yunho (TVXQ) on Hyoyeon's “BapsaHyo2” – The Funniest & Most Heartwarming Episode Yet (English Summary + Key Moments)

If you haven’t watched Hyoyeon’s BapsaHyo2 with TVXQ’s Yunho yet, clear your schedule – this is peak SM family content.

1. The Legendary Meme Tournament

Hyoyeon made Yunho choose which of his iconic memes he wants to “delete forever”:

  • “Lesson and Truths of Life” (the cringy self-written rap) → Yunho instantly picked this one. “Even I don’t know why I did that… I was good at rapping!”
  • “Happy birthday!” crying (Japan farewell stage before enlistment) → He cried like a child because staff prepared a surprise event.
  • “Do you like it?” from Heading to the Ground (2009) → The gaze that still haunts the internet.
  • “Dancing God / Dancing King” title → Yunho humbly said many dancers were better back then.

Winner (the one he keeps forever): the crazy acting gaze. “I have to carry it and grow more.”

2. Trainee Hierarchy Revealed

Everyone thinks TVXQ are Girls’ Generation’s seniors because they debuted in 2004 vs 2007… but Hyoyeon is actually Yunho’s senior as a trainee! She joined SM earlier and saw shy, quiet, passionate trainee Yunho.

Hyoyeon: “Back then you were shy and didn’t talk much. Now you’re all passion.”

3. Marriage Pressure Is Real (Even for Yunho)

Both get constantly asked “When are you getting married?” during holidays. Yunho’s great-aunt: “I don’t care about your money, when is our Yunho getting married?”

Yunho: “I’ve been hearing it for 5–6 years already.”

4. Yunho’s First Full Solo Album in 22 Years: ‘I-KNOW’

Concept: Fake vs Documentary

  • Pre-release “Body Language” = the Fake cool-sexy image the public expects
  • Title track “Stretch” = the real, heavier, darker Jung Yunho (Documentary)

Yunho: “I finally get to tell my own story.”

5. Acting Talk – From “Heading to the Ground” Disaster to “Beolgu” Praise

Hyoyeon’s friend texted her: “Yunho’s acting in ‘Find: The Bumpkins’ was insane.” Even Hyoyeon was shocked people praised idol-actor Yunho so much.

6. The Sweet Ending

After 20+ years in the same company, they finally had a long honest talk.

Hyoyeon: “Oppa used to feel stiff and hard to approach… but today I got to know the human Jung Yunho.”
Yunho: “I also thought ‘I didn’t really know Hyoyeon well’. Let’s get closer from now on!”
