[News/Trans] 130718 Max Changmin ‘Tears of the First Win’

 

 

‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ Ping Pong·Bowling ‘Weakest Link’
Desperately Practiced to Become Badminton Ace

 

‘Carrying around a badminton racket during his world tour.’

 

KBS 2TV ‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ Max Cahgnmin (In the pic)’s first win comes forth after tearful, painstaking effort.

Max Changmin from ‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ went through ping pong and bowling and with his poor, lacking skills and fell to become the team’s “weakest link.† But despite that, on the broadcast on the 16th in the first badminton match he redeemed himself from his slump with his first win.

 

‘Miss the Hit’ was reborn again as ‘Ace’ after facing many difficulties.

Max Changmin is currently in the midst of his TVXQ World Tour. He completed performances on the 6th in LA, USA (t/n: it was the 5th but article says 6th) and 7th in Santiago, Chile, and has a performance in Shanghai, China ahead of him on the 20th. Despite not having any time, in his spare moments he would go on-site and practice badminton. Inside his suitcase he always carried a badminton racket with him. He wasn’t choosy and practiced against member U-Know Yunho, managers, stylists, etc.  One person from ‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ said “Of course he practiced overseas but in Korea too he would practice from dawn.  Even when his fingers, wrists, knees, etc. couldn’t keep up with the long practice he didn’t stop.

 

During this time Max Changmin’s previous work ‘Moonlight Prince’ was discontinued and in the beginning of ‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ he would have consecutive losses. As a result his placement as MC became a controversy becoming a huge burden for him and a for long time he suffered internally. He said to the people near him, “My efforts won’t betray me. I want to receive recognition for my skills.†and strived to only practice. Kang Ho Dong, Lee Soo Geun, and the other members endlessly encouraged him through text messages.

 

As a result of his success, the broadcast of ‘Cool Kidz on the Block’ on the 16th recorded viewership ratings of 7.4% (Nielson Korea) a 0.7% increase from last episode rising to the number 1 spot for its time slot.

Article: 'Neighborhood Arts' Changmin, sadness with team loss... tears 'drop'

 

Source: OSEN via Naver

 

1. [+413, -38] You could tell that he really tried hard. It's good to see him working so hard.

 

2. [+360, -34] Very very amazing... I could tell that he was so upset that he wasn't able to help his team. He did well either way.

 

3. [+326, -38] I'm proud to be Changmin's fan because he doesn't rely on his popularity and knows when to lower (his status) to work hard and try his best.

 

4. [+306, -31] Liking him more and more... He really seems like a responsible person and works hard. Fighting to the future!

 

5. [+297, -25] Not his fan but I think it's nice to see him work hard, especially with how busy his schedule probably is. A round of applause for him. So stop crying! You did great!

[TRANS] 130730 Max Changmin Apologizes For Missing A Week Of Training On ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master’

 

TVXQ’s Max Changmin apologized to his fellow celebrity team members for missing a week of training.

The episode of KBS2′s ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master of Variety and Sports’ that aired on the 30th showed the celebrity team’s badminton match against the Joongsan-dong team of Goyang-si.

On this day, Lee Jong Soo jokingly mentioned the fact that Max Changmin had been missing for a week when he said, “Changmin, I’m practicing harder than ever to make up for your absence.â€

This is when Max Changmin appeared, to have Lee Jong Soo say, “Not even Changmin can be a yangban.â€

Max Changmin had everyone smiling when he immediately got on his knees and said, “I’m sorry for not being here.â€

[TRANS] 130731 Max Changmin Says, “The Show Has Helped Change My Bitter And Depressed Personality†(Interview)

 

‘Our Changmin has changed~’

 

TVXQ’s Max Changmin is currently busy training for KBS 2TV’s ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master of Variety and Sports’. Although he has a packed overseas schedule as a singer, he always works hard to complete his missions for the show and is reaping in great success as an emcee. He has won over his viewers with his hard work and effort.

 

 

Max Changmin himself is very happy that he was able to join the ‘Our Neighborhood’s Master’ team. During an interview with Newsen, Max Changmin said, “My life has become more enjoyable. I actually found it hard to approach others first and I used to be quite an introvert, but I’ve become more of an extrovert thanks to this show. Exercising and participating in matches together has helped form a natural camaraderie with the others, and I find it easier to keep an eye on those around me.â€

 

Anyone who watches the show can see just how much Max Changmin loves his fellow teammates, and how hard he works for every match and practice session. One of his bowling matches in early July had viewers reaching out for the singer when he cried over an unfortunate loss. Though it was not aired, Max Changmin was crying so hard that he was unable to say his closing comments. The staff came to the decision to cut that scene from the episode.

 

Regarding this, Max Changmin confessed, “I had become close friends with the other guys like Kang Ho Dong, Lee Soo Geun, Lee Byung Jin, Alex and Jo Dal Hwan and I felt even more disappointed at the loss because I had worked so hard to prepare for the match. I had practiced so hard, giving up my breaks in between our concerts in Japan, so I felt even more upset that I lost. I really wanted to end the match on a high… I felt sorry to the others and I felt disappointed at myself. There were so many emotions running through me.â€

 

According to Max Changmin’s close acquaintances, he is the kind of person who always works hard at what he does. Not even the smallest things pass by him unattended to. Because of this, he has felt an immense sense of responsibility about appearing on the show. Staff members who saw the ripped skin on his hands from bowling too much even said, “Your primary job is being a singer. Focus on that. Take care of yourself so that you can focus on your concerts as well.â€

 

However, Max Changmin refused to give up his Japanese concerts or his bowling matches. He had always laid low during his breaks, but since beginning the show, he began going to bowling alleys whenever he had a moment to spare and kept practicing as much as he could. Max Changmin said, “Practicing and getting used to the sports made me feel more at ease with myself. I think that’s why the tears came after I lost. I think those tears were proof that I’ve gotten more comfortable with the show.â€

 

The singer has gained so much through the show. Not only has he become close friends with people such as Lee Soo Geun, Jo Dal Hwan and Kang Ho Dong, and has currently become closer with stars such as John Park and 2PM’s Chansung. He has been meeting with Chansung for dinner often and they have finally begun to feel more comfortable around each other for the first time in years.

 

Max Changmin smiled and said, “The kid who used to stay at home and sit around every day is now sweating it out and moving around. It’s helped a lot with my personality. In the past, I used to feel very bitter and depressed. But participating in sports activities through the show has helped me release my stress faster and it’s making me much happier. I’m grateful to myself for taking on this challenge. I’ve found a new sense of vitality in my life.â€

This is such a nice interview. I'm so happy for him that this variety show is helping him grow so much.

 

*sniff sniff* too!

 

i agree. i always have confidence in him and that he will work hard to make this work. but i guess sometimes i can't help but worry about him so it's good to know that this show has given him more confidence and purpose.  

 

i'm glad that he's doing more physical activities because that's a good stress reliever. and that he's meeting many new people and getting to know them better.  

[ariel]

He says he has gained so much from the show because he is filling spare time that he could have spent drinking too much and lounging around with exercise and sports.

 

one of the reasons i like cool kiz so much^^

 

So...going back a page or two~~a friend of mine was in Italy just recently and FB'd me that she saw YunHo (my "korean man" she calls him coz she does not follow them) and I was like "seriously?" coz i was not aware they were in Italy, or that she could even identify him in person. She said she was trying to get a pic, but other people saw her tailing him into a coffe shop and then suddenly someone shouted "TVXQ" (although she said it was only Yunho) and he bolted! No picture... I wasn't sure if I believed her, right?  BUT OMO~~~ THERE HE IS IN ITALY.

fan account translation

 

[TRANS/Fanacc] 130731 YCN recording - After work, this fan bumped into the YCN cast while they were going to get makeup on.

Because there were a lot of people on the time, Changmin didn't appear immediately. I was on the phone with my friend. Just then, someone from my side passed and I moved to give a bit room - I looked over and it was Changmin! I was shocked. Oppa was by my side! It became reality. Coming to my senses, I knew I must say hi.

Fan: "Oppa, hello"
Changmin: "Ah, en, hello."
Fan: "I'm your fan, oppa!"
Changmin: "Ah, Thank you~"

But seeing the way oppa looked at me, why did it seem like he thought I was just saying it to be polite? Did it sound odd? But I'm really a fan...?

Once he finished saying hi, he laughed and returned to the filming area. I was so shocked, my legs and hands felt all clammy. I was so close near the staff area, so I could see him so clearly!

You must watch this time's competition! Especially John Park's match. This time, John Park and Kang Ho Dong's match were the most nerve-wracking of all so far! At the scene and in the moment, it really was so nerve-wracking, but how this translates onto the actual show is a concern...

Changmin oppa was the last to compete. Our Changmin oppa... ã… ã… 

Anyways, you must watch the show! At the end, one of the hyungs* put his arm around Changmin and said something, patting him.
