Park Yoo-chun to Return with Japanese Documentary 'An Unending Story'

Former singer Park Yoo-chun, who stepped away from the Korean entertainment scene following drug-related controversies, is set to make a comeback with a documentary in Japan.

Japanese broadcaster Tokyo MX announced on its official website that the intimate documentary 'An Unending Story (終わらない物語)' will be aired on the 20th at 7:30 PM. The documentary will delve into the behind-the-scenes moments and experiences from his recent 'Park Yoo-chun Fan Con 2025'.

In a program description, Tokyo MX stated, "The stage filled with cheers and passion from the successfully concluded 'Park Yoo-chun Fan Con 2025' was a dreamlike time. However, behind that brilliant stage lay a path that was far from smooth. Park Yoo-chun faced numerous obstacles and unavoidable conflicts during the preparation process, repeatedly pausing to reflect before taking his next step."

The broadcaster further elaborated, "Despite moments of wavering and hurt, his sincere attitude, fueled by his passion for music and love for his fans, made this performance even more special. This documentary captures untold stories hidden behind the dazzling performance, his candid moments before taking the stage, the camaraderie with his colleagues, and above all, his strong desire to 'run forward together with his fans', all of which evoke emotion and empathy."

Park Yoo-chun, who was sentenced to probation for drug use charges in 2019, had previously announced his retirement from entertainment but later resumed activities. He has since been focusing on his career overseas, particularly in Japan, and recently held an event in Nagoya on the 6th to commemorate the release of his new mini-album 'Metro Love'.

Park Yoo-chun first debuted in 2004 as a member of the popular K-pop group TVXQ, later continuing his career with JYJ. He also gained recognition as an actor in the early 2010s. Following his drug scandal in 2019, he suspended his entertainment activities and took time for self-reflection.
