[TRANS] 130123 Max Changmin Paves The Way To Becoming The Prince Of Variety Shows In ‘Moonlight Prince’

The MC who stood out in KBS’s new variety program ‘Moonlight Prince’ on the 22nd was none other than Max Changmin. Even though he was wedged between veterans of the variety sector such as Kang Ho Dong and Tak Jae Hoon, he made his presence known with his witty and unexpected charm.

He began by seeing Kang Ho Dong, who appeared in a Peter Pan costume, and saying, “You’re making us all uncomfortable.” With appropriate gestures responding to his fellow MCs’ conversations, he had the studio in an uproar with his silver tongue as he broke his princely and modest image. He stated, “I didn’t date that much when I was a student. If I were able to go back to middle school, I would meet as many girls as I could.”

He continued to draw people’s attention when he made a confession about his beautiful (?) deviation from his model student life when he stopped talking to his father for three days because his father was against him becoming a trainee and making his debut as an idol singer.

Max Changmin, who has been called a ‘Man above all other men’ by Tak Jae Hoon during the show’s press conference, showcased a silver tongue that completely differed from his gentleman image. He received positive reviews for his charm and wit that captivated everyone in the studio.

It’s impossible not to compare Max Changmin to Lee Seung Gi, who also started off as a singer and became the ‘blue chip of the variety sector’ through ‘Two Days, One Night’ and ‘Strong Heart’. Regarding this, Kang Ho Dong said in the press conference that, “He’s someone with unlimited possibilities,” and “He’s similar to Lee Seung Gi in that he also works hard.” Many are curious to see if Kang Ho Dong will help Max Changmin become ‘the next prince of variety shows’ through ‘Moonlight Prince’.

Netizens showed an interest in this new side of Max Changmin as they left comments such as, “Max Changmin has an unexpected charm”, “He’s a charming character who is a mixture of innocence and silliness,” and “What new charm will Max Changmin showcase in the second episode of ‘Moonlight Prince’?”

‘Moonlight Prince’, headed by the charismatic quintet of Kang Ho Dong, Tak Jae Hoon, Jung Jae Hyung, Brave Brothers and Max Changmin, centers its talks around the books chosen by guests each week. The show airs every Tuesday at 11:10pm.

[TRANS] 130110 Why Did Kang Ho Dong’s New Variety Show Change Its Name To ‘Moonlight Prince’?

Kang Ho Dong’s new KBS variety show has changed its name to ‘Moonlight Prince’.

The staff recently confirmed that the title of Kang Ho Dong’s variety show, which will start airing on the third week of January, will be ‘Moonlight Prince’. Though the show was initially set to be called ‘I Like You. A Night to Meet’, the title was changed as it was decided that a title that was shorter and had a greater impact would be more appropriate.

 

Regarding this, a representative of ‘Moonlight Prince’ explained, “The secret behind the name of the program will be revealed after shooting the first episode. The staff and representatives of the program are keeping everything top-secret. Even the celebrities participating in the show haven’t been told all the specifics of the show. As this is a program that Kang Ho Dong and the staff have spent a lot of time and effort on, we plan to bring a surprise with us when we present the show to viewers.”

A representative of the KBS variety sector also added, “‘I Like You. A Night to Meet’ was only a temporary title. The staff recently held a meeting and have decided to go with a fresh title of ‘Moonlight Prince’.”

‘Moonlight Prince’ will hold its first closed filming on the 12th of January. The first guest has been confirmed as Lee Seo Jin and the talk show will take place in a variety of ways. ‘Moonlight Prince’ will combine the strengths of variety shows like ‘YaShimManMan’, ‘Sang Sang Plus’ and ‘Happy Together’ and honest talk shows like ‘Knee Drop Guru’, ‘Win Win’ and ‘Healing Camp’. The MCs will be part of a ‘Kang Line’ and will have a horizontal relationship rather than a vertical one.

Meanwhile, ‘Moonlight Prince’ is garnering attention for combining the forces of Screenwriter Moon Eun Ae, who is called the Midas of the variety sector and participated in MBC’s ‘Golden Fishery-Knee Drop Guru’, and PD Lee Yae Ji, who has worked on KBS 2TV’s ‘Public Talk Show  Hello’. The MC team is made up of Kang Ho Dong, Choikang Changmin, Brave Brothers, Jung Jae Hyung and Tak Jae Hoon and the show will begin airing on the 22nd at 11:200pm.
