Jung Yunho
Stage name: Uknow Yunho
Yunho, the leader-shii. I have mentioned this is previous post, but I really think he is very manly. His height probably have a lot to do with it. But it is definitely not the height alone, because we know Changmin is now 2cm taller than Yunho, but he doesn't possess the manly aura Yunho does. I am not sure if I am subconsciously influenced by the fact that he is the leader of the group, but he really does exude the air of a leader. He gives the feeling of someone who could make hard decisions for the group when they members themselves couldn't do it, someone who would really stand up and face the music alone if the group makes a mistake just because he is the leader, someone who would really shield the members and bear the hardships on his own as best as he could manage. Now, I admit, all this are base on "feeling", because, let's face it, I do not know him personally and neither do readers of this blog (haha, that is if anyone reads this). I have seen in interviews where the other members say that off-screen, Yunho is totally different from the cool leader he portrays. He acts all cute around them, "annoying" them with his cuteness.
If there are rap parts in a song, Yunho is usually the one taking care of them and I think he is pretty good. But I heard the Japanese & Chinese version of Mirotic, and he sounds really high pitched (like a girl) in the rapping. I am not criticizing him, just find it really cute & funny. His singing, he usually covers the lower notes and his voice can sometimes be neglected in songs because it tends to be a little softer. But since i listen with headphones, I can hear it clearly. And I have to say, although he is singing low notes, it sounds really soothing, gentle and kind.
His dancing is really good. Even the members think he is the best dancer among them. His moves are really clear and defined, lifting a finger, means lifting a finger, even if the dance is fast, you would clearly see it. Raising the hand means really raising it properly. In order words, you won't see any half-assed dancing from him. He puts 100% into every single move.
In some variety shows, I find Yunho sometimes tend to be a little less relaxed, it may be because he is the leader and feel he have a big responsibility to ensure everything goes well. He looks a little tense and nervous especially if the members are made to talk about each other, and it is his turn to be talked about. Perhaps, he have really high expectations of himself and hence worries how members look at him.
If he could be a part of my life, I would want him to be my:
1. Brother
2. Someone to fall in love with, date, get married and spend the rest of my life with.
Stage name: Youngwoong Jaejoong (Hero Jaejoong for international fans)
This is a complicated one. He is blessed with perfect skin and often people use the term pretty on him. Undeniably he does look pretty. But at the same time, he also looks undeniably manly. Of course, hair style, clothes and makeup will all play part in making him look more feminine or more masculine. Everyone says his eyes are really big. I don't know if I would say his eyes are big, but I would definitely say it is very attractive and arresting. I don't like breaking up people's facial features and analyzing them one by one, I prefer to look at the face as a whole, because I think that's what matters. I can't be staring at only your eyes/nose/lips/cheekbones/chin/eyebrows all the time right? So to sum it, Jaejoong have a very attractive face.
His voice, I like. And he seems to be able to pull of many different type of songs, ballads, R&B, rock, pop, soul; and his ad libs are good. He can hit both high and low notes and his voice can be soothing or husky which is really sexy. He did the rap in Wrong Number and I have to say its pretty good. I won't say its awesome and the best, but hey its really pretty good, bearing in mind that not everyone can rap.
His dancing, his moves seem to have this "lazy disease". I am not saying he is lazy, just that the way he dances, he looks he is just drifting/ floating around. I sincerely believe he also puts in a 100% to his dancing, but the "lazy" look is just him. Its like walking, some girls' walk is sexy, some feminine, some very boyish and totally not elegant; but I don't its done on purpose, its just how they naturally are. However, the more I watch Jaejoong's dancing, especially in Mirotic, I find it really sexy.
Watching him in live performances (during talks) and variety shows, I feel that he is really spontaneous and random, very funny too. Some people may not like people with this type of personality. I know that because I am like this too. And in crowds, there will be people who enjoys this, and there will also be people who dislike me thinking I am trying to attract attention and there will be some who totally do not get the joke or take the sarcasm to seriously. Sorry to digress and talk about myself instead, but I like his personality, at least the one I see onscreen, when he is funny, random, spontaneous and a little outrageous.
If he could be a part of my life, I would want him to be my:
1. Someone to fall in love with, date, get married, have beautiful children and spend the rest of my life with.
2. A really close friend, whom I could share everything with. Whom I could hold hands, hug and be close to just because we have a strong bond and not because we are romantically interested in each other.
Kim Junsu
Stage name: Xiah Junsu
Junsu oh Junsu. Although you aren't my favorite 2, I will readily admit, you have the most amazing singing ability. You see, he is so good that when I write about him, instead of begining with looks, I jumped straight to vocal. Now, don't get me wrong. Its not because Junsu is not good looking (he have a lot of fans too) and its also not because Yunho & Jaejoong's looks preceeds their talents. It just happened to be how I structure the writing when I start with Yunho and the pattern followed through in Jaejoong's part. And I didn't realize Junsu's was different until I scroll up. So yes, Junsu can hit really really high notes. From the Tone Test they did in one show, he won in a game among all the members for being able to hit the highest notes. The members even say that it is not even human anymore, dolphin Junsu.
Moving on to his looks, he is just somehow not my type, so I won't say I find him attractive as I am not attracted after all. But no, I don't think he is ugly. But he have a childlike innocence about him, the way he gets shy when members make fun of him, or embarrassed when he does his oyaji gags. Its really cute in a way, very childlike and endearing.
His dancing is really good too. When I watched Mirotic performances, I would say he is as good as Yunho. Just that Yunho have the advantage of height and makes it more enjoyable to watch. To give an analogy, its like watching TV, the bigger the screen, the better, since you could see clearer.
Variety shows appearances, well, his trademarks would be his Oyaji gags and also his eukyangkyang laugh. Oh, and his Oh My God Sun from Saipan Vacation. Makes me laugh thinking about his Oh My God Sun and all the Oyaji gags. But I have no idea who coined the eukyangkyang term. His laughing is definitely not "hahaha", but I don't get how it became eukyangkyang. But it is unique nonetheless. His embarrassed look when he gets made fun or bullied by his own members is really priceless, its like telling the audience, "yes people, I put up with these 4 guys everyday in my life". And oh, his Engrish moments, enough said. Haha.
If he could be a part of my life, I would want him to be my:
1. Brother
2. A colleague. Imagine the among of laughter I would have in my life. Eukyangkyang!!
Park Yoochun
Stage name: Micky Yoochun
His looks, to me, are probably a typical boy next door look. Someone whom your parents would approve of if you bring him home. I can imagine a lot of Mothers liking his type of look. Same with my views on Junsu, I don't find him particularly attractive. He does not have the childlike innocence Junsu have too. But he has something else. He have this look that tells me he would make a very good best friend, confidante, someone who can share your joy and sorrow with as a friend.
His vocal, to me, is somewhat, sorry to say, but nothing unique. He have a nice singing voice and is soothing to listen too. But that's it, nothing especially unique.
His dancing to me is also not bad. Its not as powerful as Yunho & Junsu, not as sexy as Jaejoong, but it is good enough. Yoochun's fan, don't bash me or hate me. Just stating my opinion here. But he plays the piano well, I remember seeing a performance of Begin (The Secret Code live at Tokyo Dome) where he was playing the piano. The whole performance, their singing and Yoochun's piano was beautiful.
If he could be a part of my life, I would want him to be my:
1. Best friend forever. Someone I could talk about boyfriend problems with, shop with, hangout with. Someone I would be really comfortable around.
Side track: The song Begin is one of my personal favorite too, I first heard it while watching their Bigeast Fanmeet video. They read their letters to the Bigeast fans, then they sang Begin and Bolero, and I cried listening to both songs, with Begin stirring more emotions. Perhaps just like how Love in the Ice makes me cry, its the same with Begin and Bolero, their voice were really full of emotion and sorrowful plus my little understanding of Japanese enable me to understand the meaning a little. To describe it in Japanese: ほんとに うつくしい
Shim Changmin
Stage name: Choikang Changmin
Yea, the 막내 (youngest) of the group. He really have a cute look, just like a little brother. Especially when he smiles or laughs. Even during Mirotic days when everyone is supposed to be manly and sexy, he still have this childlike cuteness. In my books, he is in the adorable category. You can say he is good looking, but well, not my type. But I won't deny he does look good, height is of course a plus point, he is the tallest among the 5. Just look at his model like long legs. His adorableness is really when he smiles or laughs especially if he is embarrassed.
His singing, many have said he have a very wide vocal range. This I agree without a doubt. And his screamings are all epic. Granted at times, his screaming may be a little off, but hey most people would be totally off, most times or maybe all the time. It is not easy you know, don't forget they are all dancing as well while singing. Powerful dance steps I mean, not swaying around like dandelions in the wind. [Haha, I find this dandelion phrase that I came up with on they fly to be very funny. Please excuse me for this self praising]
For his dancing, I'd have to comment that it would be the same as Micky, as in, not as powerful as Yunho & Junsu and not as sexy as Jaejoong.
But at this point, I need to admit, I may not have paid as much attention to Yoochun & Changmin, and hence when I write this, I can't describe their dancing as much. I could easily describe Yunho & Jaejoong since they were my faves and have my attention, and I enjoyed watching Yunho's powerful moves and Jaejoong's sexy moves. As for Junsu, his dancing really does make you look at him, hence I could describe his dancing pretty easily as well. So, very sorry Yoochun & Changmin. Maybe I will make it a point to notice your dancing more and come back to edit this post.
When I see Changmin in variety shows, the most I notice about him is how he cracks up at funny stuff, the way he laughs would start with his shaking, his shoulders, hahaha. I don't know how to describe it, if you watch him, you would know. And he sometimes comes up with the darn-est answers. In Happy Together, the host ask him, what's the difference of Japanese fans compared to Korean fans. With a straight face, Changmin answered, "they speak Japanese". Seriously, hahahaha and -_- at the same time. And also, his love for food, seems to surpass his love for anything else in this universe.
1. Younger brother. I would want to dote on him and buy him lots of yummy food. Though I wonder how long I can keep it up as I may go bankrupt really quick
Ah, that was nice, to be able to write down what I think of each of them, because as I mentioned, I don't have anyone to talk to about them. Not that I have no friends, just that if I talk to them about K-Pop group, they may seriously think I have gone mad and I don't think they will entertain me on this topic for long T_T
