Upon graduation from Busan Commerce High School in 2000, Yun started his collegiate career at Dong-eui University in Busan. He led his team to two consecutive gold medals in the baseball tournament at the Korean National Sports Festival in 2000 and 2001, and helped his team to win their first national baseball championship as a starter and closer in 2002.
Yun was selected by the Samsung Lions in the 2nd round (8th pick, 15th overall) of the 2004 KBO Draft. Yun wanted to join the Lotte Giants, the team from his hometown, however, head coach Sun Dong-yol, currently the manager of Samsung Lions saw great potential in Yun and scouted him.
