Yun was the political leader of the Southern (Namin) faction of the Joseon Dynasty. His pen names were Paekho, Hahŏn and Yapo.

In 1617, Yun Hyu was born in Gyeongju, the son of Gyeongju magistrate Yun Hyo-jŏn, of the Namwon Yun clan, and his wife Lady Kim, of the Gyeongju Kim clan. Yun's family was affiliated with the Lesser Northerners faction. His childhood name was Kaeng, given by his father's friend, Chŏng Han-kang. At age 19, he married Lady Kwŏn. In 1636, during the Qing invasion of Joseon, Yun went to Songnisan, where he encountered Song Si-yŏl for the first time. After hearing of King Injo's capitulation to the Manchus, Yun vowed to not take the gwageo. He moved to Gongju, Chungcheong Province and became a private scholar. He maintained friendships with prominent Easterner figures, such as Song Si-yŏl, Song Chun-gil, and Yu Kye. He was nominated to be a Jipyeong as a Yebinshijeong, and had served in various other posts, before he left politics to dedicate himself to scholarly pursuits. In 1660, he became a leading figure in the controversy regarding the mourning rituals for King Hyojong. In 1674, he became involved again in a second round of the controversy, this time over the death of Queen Inseon. In 1680, Yun was expelled and exiled to Gapsan. That year, he was ordered to commit suicide by King Sukjong, after a long public debate with Song Si-yŏl.
