[trans] Moon Ga Young talks about Changmin in her interview via mug_ping

"Mimi" Moon Ga Young "Max Changmin, who is 8 years older than me, is sensitive about the age gap"

*only Changmin-related parts translated

Moon Ga Young explained the consideration of Max Changmin: "The chemistry with Changmin oppa was really good. Before the filming, we met often and he led me well, while we discussed about this and that and tried out certain things, we went through with the filming without any issues. Even for style (working style), oppa adjusted and matched with me so it was comfortable".

There is also no problem with labelling Moon Ga Young, who is under SM C&C, and Max Changmin, who is under SM Entertainment, as family from the same company. However, Moon Ga Young said that the drama waas the first time she had seen Max Changmin. MGY: "I didn't really have any work which requires me to encounter Changmin oppa. I met him for the first time through the production. We met each other without knowing about the existence of the other."

About chemistry with Changmin, MGY: "Oppa is a famous singer, so it was great to have a story about first love in the drama with him. However, I became worried that it would be difficult to get close to him because he was pretty famous. The director kept saying, "It would be great if both of you can get close quickly". So I carried some pressure with me when I met with him, but oppa first asked about this and that so we got close quickly."

Max Changmin (27) and Moon Ga Young (19) have a real-life age gap of 8 years. However, for their ages in the drama, Moon Ga Young appeared as a character who was 1 year older than Max Changmin. They have to paint a loveline, and MGY was asked if this caused a problem. MGY: "I didn't really feel any age difference with Changmin oppa. Because when oppa wore the school uniform, he fitted very well in it so I really didn't feel it. However, oppa was sensitive about the age difference. He kept going around and telling the people around him, "We are 8 years apart". I really couldn't feel the age gap. Oppa treated me well just like his younger sibling."

About the kiss scene, MGY: "For the kiss scene, compared to being worried when we were going to film the kiss scene, my worries about the aftermath were big. Although I wasn't worried when we actually were going to shoot the scene, I became worried that we might become awkward after that. However, it went through smoothly. Changmin oppa also felt the same way, and I think it is a huge relief that the kiss scene came out prettily."

ep 2 is definitely better than ep 1. ep 1 is more for setting up the story and ep 2 is when the story really takes off. and they've also increased the stake for minwoo to recover his memories. can't wait for ep 3 !!!

Summary of Episode 2

 

The second episode is less confusing because it didn’t go back and forth between the past and present and just focused on the Adult Minwoo. 

 

 

Minwoo got a call from the Team Leader but he didn’t bother to answer it. However, he looked at his calendar and noticed that he has to attend an animation event in Seoul. He changed his clothing and Mimi, who was in his apartment, turned to look the other way. He got in his car but Mimi was already inside the car. Mimi noticed that he was reluctant to attend the event and suggested for them to go to the beach. I’m pretty sure at this point that Minwoo couldn’t see Mimi but he seemed to change his mind and decided to go to the beach.

 

On his way to the beach, his Team Leader called reminding him of the event and this time Minwoo answered that he will attend the event. He made a sudden lane change to go back to Seoul and almost got into an accident. Suddenly, the strange man who was following Mimi i.e. the Umbrella Man, was inside the car with them. The Umbrella Man told Mimi not to worry as the driver of the other car will live up to 100 years old. Mimi said she didn’t want to send Minwoo ‘there’ yet. When the other car started beeping his car horn, we can see that Minwoo was actually alone in his car.

 

Minwoo got to the animation event and met Eunhye, the daughter of the President of the web comic company. Mimi and the Umbrella Man were there too, unseen by other people. Mimi asked the Umbrella Man to teach her how to touch things from the real world. The Umbrella Man told her that she has to be sincere. Mimi tried to touch a glass but failed.

 

When Minwoo was at a fan signing event, a guy who was getting Minwoo’s signature talked to him in a familiar manner and told him that they went to high school together. Minwoo, of course, couldn’t remember him and the staff asked him to leave because he was taking too much of Minwoo’s time.

 

At home, Minwoo seemed to suffer from writer’s block and couldn’t make any progress on his web comic. His mother came for a visit and started fussing over him in a joking manner. But she seemed to be very worried over him.

 

Minwoo also seemed to be very curious about his neighbour, the Fire Warrior. We got a flashback to the time when Minwoo had approached the Fire Warrior. The Fire Warrior seemed to be taunting Minwoo, talking to him informally and only adding the polite suffix “yo†after ending his sentence. “You don’t remember? … yo. Then just leave it like that. …yoâ€. He also told Minwoo to figure it out himself and that he didn’t want to tell Minwoo anything.

 

Minwoo managed to find out that the Fire Warrior usually comes to his apartment from 5.00 p.m. and will stay there until the 9.00 p.m. news is over.

 

Minwoo got a phone call from his Team Leader who was upset that the deadline has passed without any words from Minwoo. In his stressed state, he kept reaching for his medicine.

 

At the web comic office, Eunhye came up with the idea of having a web comic exhibition. The team finally agreed to exhibit the works of 3 experienced web comic artists and one new upcoming artist i.e. Minwoo. The Team Leader however could not contact Minwoo and Eunhye asked him for Minwoo’s phone number.

 

When Eunhye called, Minwoo was already unconscious due to overdose of medicine. Mimi finally managed to touch his phone and accept the call but couldn’t say anything. Eunhye then came to Minwoo’s apartment and managed to guess the door code to Minwoo’s apartment correctly based on Minwoo’s web comic title, December 8 (1208). She found Minwoo unconscious and sent him to the hospital.

 

Mimi and the Umbrella Man were in the hospital room with Minwoo. Mimi said she didn’t know that losing his memories will be so difficult for Minwoo and would like to find and give back the memories to Minwoo. The Umbrella Man told her that if Minwoo recovers his memories, Mimi will live inside his memories forever but Mimi has to leave Minwoo’s side. Mimi said she couldn’t leave Minwoo.

 

Eunhye went to visit Minwoo but Minwoo was not in his room. She went to Minwoo’s apartment and saw that Minwoo was about to go somewhere with his car. She got into the car and told Minwoo to just drive to wherever he wants to go. Minwoo drove them to the beach. At the beach, Eunhye told him that the first web comic she read was Minwoo’s web comic. Reading that web comic made her feel like the writer really understands her. His subsequent web comic, December 8, was such a surprise because it was very different from the first one. As a reader she would like to see it to the end and asked whether Minwoo can complete it.

 

Minwoo went back to the hospital after that. He started drawing for his web comic again but only half-heartedly. Eunhye wasn’t impressed and told him that his drawings lack emotions, feelings and impact. That night, Minwoo went up to the hospital roof followed by Mimi. Just as Minwoo was about to step to the edge of the roof, the Umbrella Man appeared. Mimi began to feel desperate and she begged the Umbrella Man to save Minwoo’s live. In exchange, she promised to leave Minwoo’s side. The Umbrella Man tapped his umbrella to the ground twice.

 

Minwoo then got down from the edge of the roof and went back to his room to sleep. The Umbrella Man told Mimi that they need to give Minwoo his memories back. He showed her a match box from a bar called Lupin, with 3 matchsticks inside it. He said that Minwoo will be able to see Mimi whenever the matchstick is lighted. However, there will only be 3 chances. If Minwoo still couldn’t remember after the third matchstick has been lighted, he will be in danger of his own confusing memories.

 

Minwoo was released from the hospital and went to the web comic office. His Team Leader told him that he was chosen for the exhibition and they have agreed to postpone his web comic until after the exhibition. They will also deposit money for the exhibition into his bank account right away.

 

Minwoo, who was in a better mood probably because of the money, went to his mother’s house. She wasn’t at home so he left his account book on the table. He also went into the store room, looked through his old belongings and found his old sketch book. That night he went to a dinner gathering with Eunhye and the other web comic writers involved in the exhibition. He got too drunk and went outside.

 

He ended up in a back lane and came across a strange looking bar called Lupin. When he went inside the bar, he was greeted by the Umbrella Man. He asked for a glass of scotch and reached for his cigarette. The Umbrella Man offered him the Lupin bar matchbox with the 3 matchsticks inside. Minwoo lighted one matchstick and there was Mimi standing in front of him.

 

Mimi was surprised and asked whether Minwoo can actually see her. Minwoo said yes and wondered whether they have met before. Minwoo also asked her why she was crying. Mimi said it was because she has like him from a very long time. He assumed Mimi like him because of his web comic and said that the character in the web comic was not him because he was just a fake. Mimi tried to convince him otherwise and asked him to look at her.

 

Mimi went on the stage and started singing the song that Minwoo sang when Mimi first saw him in the art room. After the song ended, Mimi began to do a cute and ridiculous dance. At first, Minwoo looked at her indulgently but soon he began to look sad and his tears fell.

 

He woke up in Eunhye’s living room. Eunhye told him she took him back to her apartment because he was too drunk. He asked Eunhye where she found him. Eunhye told him she was at the restaurant with him the whole time and she didn’t leave with the others because he wanted to drink some more. Minwoo got confused and asked whether Eunhye had sung a song for him. Eunhye thought Minwoo was still drunk.

 

Minwoo then excused himself saying that he just had a weird dream. Eunhye asked whether they are now friends and Minwoo told her they could never become friends. He then left and Eunhye followed him from a distance. After walking for some time, he reached inside his jacket pocket and slowly took out the Lupin bar matchbox.

 

End of Episode 2.

 

 

tenkiu autumn :happy:

TVXQ Max Changmin Consumed Alcohol to Act Drunk in ‘Mimi’

 

93532556_59_20140305102904.jpg

 

TVXQ’s Max Changmin took some liquid courage to pull off a scene for his drama.

 

Mnet’s Mimi revealed photos of the TVXQ member turned rosy, as he acted out a scene where he gets drunk.

 

The filming took place at a restaurant located in Ilsan last December 19, and Max Changmin reportedly consumed alcohol before pulling off the scene where he makes a drunk confession, without any NGs.

 

A staff member said, “Max Changmin actually drank beer in order to prepare for the scene, and was able to pull off the scene realistically with reddened face and eyes. Please stay tuned for one of the highlight scenes of the drama.â€

http://mwave.interest.me/enewsworld/en/article/60108/tvxq-max-changmin-drank-beer-to-act-drunk

 

changmin was totally wasted during the drunk scene lol :har: :har:

according to fan account, it was the pd who asked him to drink more

 

 

Isn't the studio version by the Girl from SM Rookies and Mimi version by Gayoung herself? I could be wrong though. Why?  

 

some people thought that mimi's version was performed by wendy sm rookie but i wasn't sure

 

I'm glad Changmin is getting some praise from his acting (are those articles mediaplay? :donthinkso: ) ~~~ I'm watching ep 2 right now ..my eyes are getting red all tha time ;_;

 

lol we can't really rule that out. the best thing to do is watch the drama and make up our own opinion 

i was a bit sceptical at first but not anymore after ep 2

 

 

Where can I watch this?

 

there's a link to viki on the first page. or u can probably watch it at gooddrama, dramago or epdrama

‘Mimi’ Reveals Voice of SM Rookie Wendy in OST

A new face of SM Rookies has been revealed.

 

On March 14, SM Entertainment stated that Wendy was casted in 2012 at the SM Global Audition in Canada. Wendy is not only able to speak English fluent, she is able to sing well and play several instruments, such as the piano, guitar, flute, and more.

 

60988002.jpg

 

She gained much attention when it became known she was the voice behind the I Must Erase You in My Sadness (tentative English title), which is the theme song of Han Min Woo (TVXQ’s Changmin) and Mimi (Mun Ka Young) in the four part Mnet drama, Mimi.

 

I Must Erase You in My Sadness is a remake of Lee Hyun Woo’s song from his first album. Sung with Wendy’s style, the new version carried different charm from the original song. It will be revealed on March 14 at noon (KST).

 

Meanwhile, SM Rookies is a pre-debut team of trainees who are currently training under SM Entertainment.

ep 4 was sad but the ending was bittersweet. as the main focus of the drama, minwoo and mimi really delivered and i cried together with them

 

i think people should know that this is a fantasy genre so they sometimes took the liberty and went beyond reality. the narrative style can be quite frustrating though

 

i also think the story ended where it was supposed to end. extending it will make it more messy i guess

[trans] Moon Ga Young talks about Changmin in her interview

*only Changmin-related parts translated

MGY: Although I did feel nervous and pressured, on the other hand, because it was a 4-part drama, I was also assured. At the filming set, Changmin oppa also treated me well and I was able to film with a comfortable mindset. Thanks to him, it seems like we created a satisfying drama.

Q: how was it acting alongside Max Changmin?

MGY: Perhaps it was because we tried out the scenes many times before the actual filming, we worked well at the filming set. Oppa's personality is similar to his character in the drama, Minwoo. Perhaps it was because of that that he was able to empathize even more (with the character). Actually, because the director had said that Changmin oppa is a man of few words and is shy of strangers, I was very worried. But right from our first meeting, he treated me well and was affectionate towards me. Because we also had many common points, we became close quickly."

Q: you also had kiss scenes with Max Changmin.

MGY: The highlight of the drama was our lips touching each other's. It seems like the writer wrote in the kiss scenes in order to draw out the fresh young love.

Q: funny / interesting episodes during filming

MGY: Starting from late autumn last year till winter, we filmed in Busan for about 3-4 months. Once we had spare time in the midst of filming, we would go looking for famous delicious restaurants. Changmin oppa also bought me a lot of delicious food. After filming has ended and we had time, we would play games and even if oppa won, he would buy me delicious food. We became close as a result and also shared personal conversations comfortably with each other.

she's very very very very lucky ....

 

 

 


The characters are all so frustrating, Minwoo is an idiot tbh. Mimi was creepy, and the other girl (forgot her name) was also quite creepy and strange. Somehow, I ended up loving the whole thing.

 

I do not quite get the ending...

 

mimi and eunhye (the other girl) were both stalkerish lol 

 

which part ?

is it when minwoo said that it was raining the day he met eunhye but eunhye said it was not or something else ?

 

 

I agree. It ended when it should.

I cried at the end too...so bittersweet.

 

If fans wanna see more of Changmin or Moon Ga Young, there should really be a different drama...not an extension.

 

i guess people just want a happy ending or

they just don't like eunhye lol

Yes, MGY is one lucky girl. Look at that gorgeous photoshoot for Celebrity!

 

LOL! yes, you could be right! The happy ending might be a Mimi look alike or her miraculously alive?  :hehe:

 

 

i guess some people were hoping that she was in a coma all this while. not really a ghost but more like a lost soul. they were hoping minwoo would recover his memory, then go and find mimi at the hospital and awake her from deep coma. and they could be cute and lame together ever after. actually, i wouldn't mind if this is the ending lol :happy:

 

 

The ending as a whole, is he with Eunhye in the end? And yeah, it seemed like they became a couple, but IDK lol

Btw, how do you put stuff in the spoiler?

 

 

i could be wrong but the ending got a lot to do with lunar eclipse. the umbrella man said that time loses its meaning when the moon is hiding. it probably means that during the eclipse, time could stop or could be reversed.

when the first accident happened 10 years ago, there was a lunar eclipse and time stopped. during that time, mimi sacrificed herself for minwoo and the umbrella man said nothing will ever happened to minwoo. he also erased all memories of mimi from minwoo's mind.

knowing that another lunar eclipse is coming, minwoo was prepared to sacrifice himself for the chance that he could reversed what had happened 10 years ago and save mimi. but he wasn't successful. however this time, he could properly mourn for her and move on.

i also think eunhye will end up with minwoo. she's creepy, but so is minwoo lol. she's also the only person alive who can understand minwoo. they kind of deserve each other :happy:

[trans] Changmin's Press Call Interview for "Mimi" in the March issue of Boda - Part 1 by @mug_ping of course :happy:

*only Changmin-related parts have been translated

"On location at the production press conference of "Mimi", which stars Max Changmin as its lead"

Following Cool Kidz on the Block, it was their new song "Something" and now drama "Mimi". Recently, this man, who captures one's eyes with just his handsome looks alone, does not even leave any opportunity for our eyes to be averted from him.

== Presscall Interview ==

Q: Please say some words of greeting and introduce each of your characters.

Changmin: I am Max Changmin, who plays the role of Minwoo in "Mimi". The filming started from late autumn last year and continued to February this year. Because we were filming in weather conditions which were colder than expected, the filming schedule kind of went on intermittently. My actor colleagues and all the staff went through a lot of hardship and trouble, and looking at the preview just now, the imagery really appeared very beautifully. I am very thankful to our director and the staff who does the editing, and I thought of wanting to quickly watch the broadcast personally.

Moon Ga Young: ... Hyun Bin unnie was like that, and Changmin oppa was also like that, because both of them really treated me so well, it seemed like everything was completed well and I am very happy because of that.

Q: Your age this year is 30? No, it's 28, isn't it?

Changmin: Aren't your words a little overboard? (laughs)


Q: This time around, you transformed into an 18-year-old high school student who is 10 years younger (than your real age), how do you feel about that?

Changmin: It was my first time wearing a school uniform in almost 10 years and while also filming in a school, I was thinking, it was really fortunate but didn't I suit the uniform pretty well to the extent that the people looking at me do not feel repulsed (laughs). It was really fortunate that it seemed to be like that. Ga Young-ssi and I have an age gap of 9 years (but our characters in the drama appeared as being of the same age), although I am not going to talk about age after considering the viewpoint of Hyun Bin noona as my noona.

Shin Hyun Bin: what about my age? (laughs)

Changmin: (after laughing for some time) in any case, after filming together with such beautiful women both younger and older than me, I filmed the drama really enjoyably. While filming, it was really tiring in terms of the physical stamina aspect. Even so, having filmed together with the 2 beautiful women at the school which obviously harboured the faint memories of the first love, and also at venues other than that, I also got the feeling that I had returned as the friend called Minwoo from 10 years ago who was 10 years younger (than me). Because of that, it was really enjoyable.

Q: What is the message which makes you go "let's convey this through "Mimi" "? Please respectively talk about what you think about first loves.

Changmin: While filming this drama, I suddenly thought of that. Like a perfume which has been left to stand for a very long time. Although it does not become stronger, there is a type of scent which will be able to faintly become a lingering memory. I wonder, does this drama not contain those type of scent? Initially, one is fervently caught up in the first love at the start like it was fate, and although as time passes by, the memories of our first loves fade, the passionate sides of us who had been swept up in our first loves, ah so that passionate memory will not be able to be forgotten easily.. I developed these thoughts. So I thought, the thing called the "first love" is like a lingering scent, isn't it?

Moon Ga Young: Because Changmin oppa said really nice words, I feel very pressured now (laughs)...

Q: Please let us know about the interesting incidents which happened on the set.

Changmin: There was a scene where I was filming outdoors in really cold weather. The sprinkler truck came and was spraying water. But because the weather was much colder than expected, the instant when the water came out, it was obviously water droplets. But when we were hit by the rain or when we were using the umbrella, the water droplets turned into ice the moment they touched the surfaces, it's called hail right? We were drenched in our bare skin amidst the falling hail, and if one looks at the scene closely, it is a scene whereby we were drenched in the rain, but although it was funny that the ice was hanging off our hair, it was a sad filming incident. While watching out attentively for that while watching the drama, wouldn't it be more interesting?

Q: You even received a rookie award in Japan, is there any pressure? And did you feel the appeal / charm of acting?

Changmin: I received the rookie award in Japan with a thankful heart for the movie which I appeared in in Japan. If I really have to say this honestly, there are a lot of our fans in Korea who know this but it seems like there are even more people of the public who do not know this. Because I see it that way, in reality, perhaps instead of a pressure of "what should I do", it seems like I was immersed in the filming with the thought that I had nothing to lose. Actually, perhaps Ga Young-ssi who is beside me now may also perhaps not know the fact that I had received an award. (Moon Ga Young, who went "Really?" and was surprised) (laughs) In any case, because of that, I did not have any of those type of pressures of what type of acting I should show just because I had received an award. Because the director also gave me a lot of advice to just immerse myself freely and comfortably, instead of shouldering those unfounded feelings, even if it was late, it seems like I really put in my maximum amount of hard work and effort in order to emit and leave in the drama all that I was able to express even more freely.

Q: If there was any aspect which you were worried about while acting out the character of Han Min Woo?

Changmin: Minwoo is a friend who really does not have talk much at all. Because there are many areas which had to be expressed via facial expressions or emotions, it seemed like the colleague actors acting opposite me went through a lot of hardship in order to be immersed in filming with me. It should have been possible to act only when the dialogue was moving back and forth between the characters (ie having a conversation) and while trading each other's emotions, so I thank all the colleague actors for that aspect. And I also think that Minwoo and I are about 60-70% similar. Although it has become much better than previously, not being able to come forward in front of people easily, introverted, not being able to cope with his own stress so he holds himself back and stays withdrawn, and the side of him which hurts alone, I thought, isn't that a little similar to me? Also, the director said "You are similar to Minwoo", "There are many aspects of you which are similar to Minwoo", and said that I was like a tamed fox of the little prince (laughs) Because I was brainwashed in this way, it seems like there was no huge difficulty in getting immersed in the filming.

Q: If there is something which you definitely wish to try out if you were to again return to the days when you were a student?

Changmin: The me during the student days did not specially stand out and I was not those type of person who possessed any special talents. I was really a normal person who attended school and private tuition academies. So I was really shy and so when I was attending school, I did not have many friends of the opposite gender. So although it is impossible now, if I were to return to the days of being a student, although it would also be correct to be immersed in a proper student life and I would really study hard, I think, wouldn't I want to spend my student life while meeting with friends of the opposite gender for once? (laughs)
