A popular idol star in the 90s, Yoo Seung Joon was swept in a major controversy after denouncing his Korean residency and applying for a U.S. citizenship prior to his military enlistment.  As a result, he has been deported and banned from entering Korea since 2002. He has taken legal action countless times hoping to lift the ban. Marking sixteen years since his exile from Korea, Yoo Seung Joon once again took to social media to express his unchanging thoughts.
