Shim Changmin (심창민, 沈昌珉; born February 18, 1988 (also known as Max (internationally), Choikang Changmin (최강창민)(in South Korea) and Changmin (チャンミン) (in Japan) is a Korean singer, songwriter and occasional actor best known as one-fifth of South Korean musical group TVXQ. He is managed under music labels SM Entertainment in South Korea and Rhythm Zone in Japan.

Max was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea. He has two younger sisters, Shim Sooyeon and Shim Kiyeon. He joined SM Entertainment by winning the best singer and best artist award in SM Entertainment's 6th Annual Youth Competition, a talent search conducted annually by the talent agency. He debuted with TVXQ in 2003 performing the group's debut song "Hug" on SBS network's BoA and Britney Spears showcase special.

Apart from his contribution in musical activities with TVXQ, Max has also participated in solo projects. In 2007, he wrote the lyrics to the track "Evergreen" which was composed by fellow band member Micky and included in SM Town's compilation album 2007 Winter SMTown - Only Love. In 2008, he wrote the Korean lyrics to "Love In The Ice" for the group's 4th Korean album Mirotic. In the same year, Max also sang his Japanese solo track "Wild Soul" for TVXQ's 17th Japanese single of the TRICK project, Two Hearts/Wild Soul.

Max graduated from Gaepo High School in 2006. Accordingly, he was accepted into Seoul's Kyung Hee University.[12] As of 2009, he is enrolled as a student of Kyung Hee University majoring in postmodern music.

In January 2008, Max volunteered with his father in the cleanup of the beaches in Taean, South Korea following the nation's worst oil spill in history. His trip to Taean was intended to be done in secret during a short break from his activities with TVXQ over the new year period and was only made known to the media and public when another volunteer posted his sighting on a fan site. The incident was later confirmed by TVXQ's agent.
