Korean idol Max Changmin of duo TVXQ will be playing one of the male leads in an upcoming SBS drama, according show’s producer Samhwa Networks on Wednesday.
Samhwa announced in a press release that Changmin was chosen to play the role Han Dong-joo, the son of a conglomerate who falls in love with a prodigy veterinarian named Lee Da-ji (played by Lee Yeon-hee) in the new drama titled “Paradise Farm,” which will premiere on January 24 next year.
“Paradise Farm,” helmed by Kim Chul-kyu and shot in Australia and Jeju Island, tells the story of a couple who gets married at the young age of 19 and then gets a divorce.
The show will take over the Monday and Tuesday timeslot after current series “It’s Ok, Daddy” finishes its run.
Max Changmin made his debut in the five-member boy band TVXQ, composed of other members Xiah Junsu, Hero Jaejun, Micky Yuchun and U-Know Yunho, in 2004.
However, after disputing with agency SM Entertainment over the unfairness of their 13-year exclusive contract, Jaejung, Yuchun and Junsu halted their activities as TVXQ and instead formed trio JYJ.
Max Changmin and U-know Yunho will make their comeback with the release of their special edition new album titled “Keep Your Head Down” on January 5 while the regular version will hit stores a week later.
The two recently celebrated their seventh year in the music industry, thanking and wishing their fans the best for the rest of the year.
