sorry this recommendation is nonsense.
if he ignores the penalty not a single target_blank click will open on any chrome browser anymore 30 days after he got the warning.
actually there is no "propper code" for a popunder - except you do not execute it on chrome and lose 70%.
the solution you are talking about are also not popunders - these are popups that open as a new window over the content page. but even here the problem is the execution as most of them are opening on click in an empty space or on the scrollbar. this technique is exactly what google does not like and it is abusive, same as fake banners, blinking banners, fake chats, banners with closing buttons or system messages and a lot more.
these rules took place in november 2016 and where blocked in chrome since version 64 in june 2017 already.
