Shim Changmin was born in Seoul, in 1988.
He was grouped with the youngest participants in the audition.
Like Xiah Junsu, he impressed the judges with his powerful voice.
He joined the group under the name Choikang Changmin.
Choikang in Korean means “Most Powerful”, or approximately, “the best”; “Max” became an international rendition of this name.
Changmin is the youngest (or maknae) in the group although he is the most modest and has the deepest thoughts.
During debut (2004) Changmin held the image of the “Cute Maknae”,
but recently, he exposed that because of Junsu, he almost lost his income.
What happened was that at their debut, Changmin held the cute image in the group,
but Junsu came out with ‘Angel Xiah’ and took the cute image,
resulting in Changmin not having any road to follow.
Changmin revealed “Because of him, I just became the tall kid in TVXQ.”
After that they revealed that “The members of TVXQ had a big fight because we all had our own images but Xiah Junsu messed it up”.
