M.C the MAX (an acronym for Moon Child the MAX) is a Korean rock band. They debuted in 2000 as a 4-member band under the name "Moon Child". Their 1st album consisted of mainly techno songs, with a few rock songs. Their 2nd album had a more similar sound to what they do today, consisting mainly of ballads mixed with a rock sound. Their title song "사랑하니까" is a ballad song with some rock sounds mixed in. Upon one of the members leaving, the remaining three members re-debuted as M.C. the MAX, steering into music of the ballad genre, while keeping their rock sounds.

• Note that the digital single "Renaissance (2007)" that includes a song named "미운오리 새끼" is not actually an album by M.C the Max, although it is said to be so. There was a dispute between the original M.C the Max and their previous agency regarding the use of their band name, and the agency, You & I Entertainment Co., tried to make another team of M.C the Max (the 2nd) debut. The "미운오리새끼" is the song by the M.C the Max the 2nd, not by the authentic M.C the Max. Currently, only the authentic M.C the Max is active on mass media.
