TVXQ!’s Changmin is known to be a huge fan of the soccer team Manchester United. He follows nearly every match of the team, often expressing his emotions about the matches’ outcomes to fans. In March 2023, when Manchester United lost 7:0 to Liverpool, he spent the day drinking.

On November 26, 2023, Manchester United played Everton. They won 3:0, with goals made by Alejandro Garancho, Marcus Rashford, and Anthony Martial. Changmin cheered the team on via his official Instagram account.
I love Nacho (Garnacho)! I love Mainoo! Kids, let’s grow up strong and well!
— Changmin
In a surprise twist, Manchester United’s official account gave Changmin a shoutout back! They parodied his quote.
We love Choi Kang Changmin!
— Manchester United
They even went the extra mile and typed it in Korean! No one is a more successful fan than Changmin at this moment!
Changmin has yet to comment on the shoutout.
