TVXQ’s Max Changmin will be taking on yet another acting role.

Mnet revealed on January 22, that Max Changmin has been cast as the lead actor of an upcoming 4-part ghost romance drama Mimi.

Max Changmin will be acting as ‘Minwoo,’ a popular webtoonist, who searches for his lost memories of first love. He will be taking the double role of playing the 28-year old cartoonist Minwoo and an 18 year old Minwoo, a high school student in love.

Max Changmin commented, “It hasn’t been easy going back and forth between acting as an 28 year old and a 18 year old, but I’m enjoying filming. As it is a drama about first love, which everyone can relate to, I ask that you show your support for this new drama.”

Mnet’s drama Mimi will air the first episode on February 21 at 11 pm (KST) and will air for four weeks.

When did he even have time for this, honestly. And I know he got praised from his Japanese movie, I watched his cuts and he was good. But I don't know if it was ever screen in Korea...

Literally anything he does will be better than Paradise Ranch. Pls don't prove me wrong tho

this, pretty much.

hopefully he'll be up to the same standard as the Japanese movie (which, of course, I canNOT remember the name of. *headdesk*)...he did VERY well, there, imo.

He actually did pretty good in Fly With the Gold. I think I only made it 2 episodes in Paradise Ranch...

Is that picture on the left supposed to be the 18 year old?

Ah, I was wondering what he was up to since Yunho mentioned he was filming a drama in that extra clip they released. I hope it's good~ And I'm glad it's a mini drama too.

He's been filming this for a while between all his activities of Wooye, tail end of Japanese tour and Something promo.

hmm interesting. paradise ranch was completely dreadful but tbh everything about it was bad, you can't just pinpoint his acting as the reason why it sucked so much. lyh's acting was just as bad (can't believe how good she is in miss korea in comparison).

i really wanna know who's writing/directing and who the leading lady is. this sounds quite cute + the stills are pretty.

ia. if he's working with a better pd this time around and actually works with some half-decent material he should make some improvement.

hope he has good chemistry with his female lead!! him + lyh were so awkward together in PR it was painful to watch them.

Hell to the yes if it's a serious format, cause he does serious work well. Paradise Ranch ... well anything is better than that. I don't think he suits comedy dramas because they're so damn cheesy. Here for this, till shown otherwise. Oh and shameless UNF at the stills. Judging from his hair color pretty sure this was shot quite some time ago. SM is pretty notorious for that, kinda like Heaven's Postman.

Fly with the Gold needs to be shown in Korea, as a side note; I think it'd be a big shock versus his work on Paradise big time.

also it's on cable, so i'm pretty sure it was shot awhile ago. live shooting isn't quite so notorious on cable as it is on the big 3.

damn i really need to watch fly with the gold then. i heard he won a rookie award for it, so he couldn't have been that bad.

Very true. I can't fathom something being worse than Paradise Ranch... but don't want to jinx it, or him.

Honestly I was pretty surprised. He plays a pretty wicked dark/messed up character, though sometimes he's a bit stiff. Considering the dialect and language though, he deserves the award. It's not Oscar worthy, but it shows the guy is capable of acting his way out of a paper bag if need be. Which in Paradise... yeah not so much. You know it's bad when the lead character is your all time Kpop bias, and you're a crazy horse fanatic who's been riding since 3 years old and still can't get past episode 3. Or was it 2?

Why does he look younger at "28" than at "18"? Lmao, he hasn't looked different in years, he's a much more convincing high schooler than Lee Minho. This looks interesting!

Oh that reminds me, I was meaning to watch out for his Japanes movie. I really wanted to see it then forgot to look for it, must do a little digging.

I'm looking forward to seeing this one too, it sounds good so far :)
