[TRANS] 130703 ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master’ Viewers Are Moved By Max Changmin’s Tears, He’s Amazing Though He Lost

Max Changmin shed some emotional tears last night.

The episode of KBS 2TV’s ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master of Variety and Sports’ that aired on the 2nd of July showed the celebrity team’s last bowling match, which was against the Gwangju Ssangchoon-dong team.

On this day, Max Changmin was the last to play, with the fate of the game resting in his hands. Max Changmin had escaped his title as ‘The Fool of Bowling’ and was slowly but surely making his spot as an ace in the team. That effort shone through in his latest match. Max Changmin showcased an amazing concentration as he hit a spare for each round.

However, he could not escape his nerves. Max Changmin had to put his ball down and take a deep breath to control his pace. Unfortunately, Max Changmin lost the match to his opponent Park Dong Hyuk’s strike. His eyes were brimming with tears because he felt sorry and disappointed.

Although Max Changmin was unable to gift his team with a victory, everyone was surprised by his concentration and speed of improvement. He congratulated his opponent’s victory with tears running down his face.

Max Changmin said, “I tried to get myself ready from the middle of Lee Soo Geun’s match, but because it’s a match, my palms got sweaty and the ball slid off my thumb. Although I’ll have a lot of regrets about this bowling match, I did my best and didn’t let my concentration fall.”

[TRANS] 130313 Max Changmin Says, “I’ve Once Liked A Woman Who Wasn’t My Girlfriend At That Time”

TVXQ’s Max Changmin revealed a part of his relationship experiences.

Kim Tae Woo, and 2AM’s Changmin and Jin Woon appeared on the last episode of ‘Moonlight Prince’ that aired on the 12th and talked about what ‘men’ are like in the perspective of men through Steve Harvey’s book.

A college student who appeared on the show as a guest asked Max Changmin, “Isn’t it true to say that if a guy cheats on you once, he’ll keep cheating on you?”

Max Changmin honestly replied, “I’ve never cheated on someone before, but I’ve once liked a woman (who wasn’t my girlfriend at that time).” He said, “It’s not that I loved them both. I was split between the two of them but I broke off everything to do with that person and returned to my girlfriend,” and “If you see someone and think, ‘This person could be my soul mate,’ then I think it’s entirely possible for a guy to waver.”

He also added, “I don’t believe you can divide all men into cheating players and guys who see noone but one girl. Being swayed isn’t cheating on your partner.”

Kim Tae Woo also stated, “Being swayed really isn’t cheating, ” and “And just because a guy cheats on his partner once, doesn’t mean he’ll always do it again.”

[TRANS] 130123 Max Changmin Paves The Way To Becoming The Prince Of Variety Shows In ‘Moonlight Prince’

The MC who stood out in KBS’s new variety program ‘Moonlight Prince’ on the 22nd was none other than Max Changmin. Even though he was wedged between veterans of the variety sector such as Kang Ho Dong and Tak Jae Hoon, he made his presence known with his witty and unexpected charm.

He began by seeing Kang Ho Dong, who appeared in a Peter Pan costume, and saying, “You’re making us all uncomfortable.” With appropriate gestures responding to his fellow MCs’ conversations, he had the studio in an uproar with his silver tongue as he broke his princely and modest image. He stated, “I didn’t date that much when I was a student. If I were able to go back to middle school, I would meet as many girls as I could.”

He continued to draw people’s attention when he made a confession about his beautiful (?) deviation from his model student life when he stopped talking to his father for three days because his father was against him becoming a trainee and making his debut as an idol singer.

TVXQ (DBSK)′s Max Changmin told his viewers and fans that he had his first kiss after his debut.

"[My first kiss] was a little late," he said on the January 22 broadcast of KBS2′s Moonlight Prince.

He added, "It was after my debut. I had my first kiss with a woman older than me. I never dated when I was in middle school; I couldn′t. If I could go back, I want to be in more relationships."

When asked when in his life he would go back to if he could go back in time, he said, "I would go back to the early 2000s, when I was still in school. I didn′t get to mingle with the girls much because I was too shy. I want to meet more women."

He then joked, "I want to meet more, though not as many as Brave Brothers."

Lee Seo Jin appeared as the show′s first guest, and he joined the panels as they talked about the Hwang Seok Young book Hesperus.

[TRANS] 130115 ‘Moonlight Prince’ Will Be A Touching Book Talk Show, Not A Funny Variety Show ‘Laughter+Donations’

The veil has been uncovered from ‘Moonlight Prince’.

Kang Ho Dong’s new variety show KBS 2TV’s ‘Moonlight Prince’ (Moon Eun Ae/Lee Yae Ji) finished filming its first episode on the 12th of January.

With Lee Seo Jin as the first guest star, ‘Moonlight Prince’ held a closed-door filming session and drew attention as the entire staff and cast were in attendance two hours before filming began. Kang Ho Dong was busy working with the staff and preparing for the episode, but was seen nervously sweating bullets when filming began.

However, the secret weapon of ‘Moonlight Prince’ is not Kang Ho Dong, but books. Though originally thought to be a funny variety talk show, ‘Moonlight Prince’ will have the guest stars choosing a book every week, and will be a show that chooses the subject of the talk based on the book. Therefore, every week will have a different theme that depends on which book the guest chooses.

[TRANS] 130103 Kang Ho Dong’s New Variety Programme, The Reason Why Variety-Newbie Choikang Changmin Was Chosen

New partners have emerged, in the form of Kang Ho Dong and Choikang Changmin.

The new variety programme that Kang Ho Dong is preparing with KBS will have its first recording on 12 Jan, and is expected to be broadcast starting 22 Jan at 11.20pm. It will be the follow-up of “Win Win”, which was recently terminated.

PD Lee Ye Ji and writer Mun Eun Ae from “Hello” will be working on this programme. Meanwhile, artistes including Tak Jae Hoon, TVXQ’s Choikang Changmin, Brave Brothers and Jung Jae Hyung are expected to appear as MCs. All the members aside from Choikang Changmin are all veterans at emceeing for variety programmes. Aside from appearing as a guest or panel member in variety programmes as a member of TVXQ, Choikang Changmin has never faced guests, holding a microphone, as an MC. As such, the news that Choikang Changmin would be appearing as an emcee in Kang Ho Dong’s new highly-anticipated variety programme came as a surprise to fans.

With ‘Win Win‘ coming to an end, the duo’s new show, ‘I Like You, Night of Meeting‘ (subject to change), will be taking over the time slot starting on January 22nd.
