[Trans] 150911 [3min Talk] ‘Scholar Who Walks the Night’ Max Changmin, isn’t it Truly Commendable?

 

As it’s the first period drama, Max Changmin was really nervous, but with his effort, it’e truly commendable that he put in so much effort for a splendid and sufficient acting.

On the 10th, in MBC’s ending wed-thurs drama SWWTN, TVXQ Max Changmin (Shim Changmin) took up the role of Lee Yoon, from a crown prince who possesses personality and charisma, to a king who cares for his people, in all these time, through his stable acting and reliability, he concluded his first period drama well.

 

To Max Changmin, SWWTN is his first period drama challenge. It’s a period drama which required unique tone and acting directions, of which even experienced actors will find it challenging. Despite SWWTN being a fantasy period drama, there weren’t any modernisation of any dialogues in order to completely maintain the dignity of a Crown Prince. Max Changmin used a lower tone to portray Lee Yoon’s personality. The smooth and comfortable voice of Lee Yoon has the strength to persuade listeners, and while speaking highly of the character Lee Yoon, became increasingly more positive of his acting in a period drama.

Lee Yoon naively confident to push his decision and step out to be a dependable king. At the some time, the overly humanism of the king, other than showing off, it was held together by caring for the people. Through his eccentric entry at the brothel, he disguised himself, and while using “the lustful scholar” as a pen name with an intention to inform of the vampire living in the palace, after it became a matter of concern, he bowed down towards Gwi, enduring the humiliation. Even when Sungyeol was slowing down due to his love for Yangsun, Yoon earnestly pursued his only path, which is to eliminate Gwi.

The Lee Yoon in the show and the real Max Changmin are similar in many ways. Continue reading

News excerpt, TVXQ!-related only: Entertainment Companies whom are Affected by the Enlistment of their artistes

 

TVXQ!’s U-Know Yunho has enlisted into the army on 7/21. On that same day, SM’s share price closed with 2.50% down. This was most probably due to the expected reduction in sales as a result of TVXQ! hiatus due to the absent of U-Know Yunho.

Last Year, TVXQ! in Japan alone has brought total sales of 3.691 billion yen (equivalent to 34 billion won then). This is an amount that ranked them at 5th place with the highest total sales in Japan (including local Japanese artistes).
