Since my favorites change a LOT, I thought I might share my thoughts on them and show the progression.

Okay, let me try and explain. The first one,
Orange, is my first impression. That was Mirotic.
Quite honestly, I figured Changmin was the youngest. I also thought he was really, really hot during his close-ups.
But Yunho's dancing captivated me. I didn't look at anyone else unless he wasn't in the shot, I didn't notice the ninja back-up dancers (until seven or eight views later), I totally ignored everything aside from him. He is sexy as hell in this MV.
Junsu looked very manly. I thought he might be a bit angry, a bit stuck-up (his face gets those expressions, it comes with the charisma). Not that he is; it's like he becomes a totally different person when he's singing. His dancing was really powerful and good (and that body wave, ohh~), and so I liked him.
Okay, it wasn't so much that I liked Jaejoong, it was more that I
disliked Yoochun. His hair was bad. His clothes were bad. It was just a bad concept overall. His voice didn't feel as powerful as the others. I actually thought he was way older than the others... But I know better now. I didn't even notice Jaejoong much (those random scenes of being tied up and stuff? I totally ignored them), he blended in with his dancing and I didn't recognize his voice.
The second,
Green, is my impression from Balloons.
I didn't recognize Jae. I thought that maybe it was another member of the band :P But he was super hot with his blond hair and soft, pretty voice.
I recognized Yunho's face the most (since I had stared at him throughout Mirotic), so I was relieved. I wondered why everyone had long hair, though.
Changmin's uneven-eyed smile won me over, even though I didn't recognize him. Everyone seemed unfamiliar. Plus, the deer costume was really cute.
Junsu's natural cuteness really shone through and I loved it, although when I first saw the MV the concept creeped me out. The song was too kiddish, with grown men singing it, and I wnodered if it was the same band at all!
And so Yoochun comes in last again, through no fault of his own. He just didn't seem special to me.
I don't know exactly when
Blue comes into play. I think it's around the time I started to watch variety shows and stuff to learn their names?
Changmin's hotness was stuck in my brain from Mirotic, and I loved him. I loved his cute smartness and laugh, and energy. He was amazing.
Jaejoong was just hot. He was hot, and 4D, and wonderful. And I loved that.
Yunho, what can I say? He has to be in my top three; he was my instant favorite. He consistently demonstrated his wonderful dancing and leader skills, and has really nice teeth (I remember the teeth before the veneers...I prefer these, even if they used to be
kinda cute). And his hair was always good.
Junsu just stayed down their for a while because he was...I dunno. I was too preoccupied with everyone else's hotness. It's shallow of me, I know, but I barely knew their names and had endless trouble just with facial features. It didn't help that their hair changed in
every single video.
And once again, I didn't notice Yoochun.
And so, a little later and a little wiser, the
Purple comes into play. This is after watching some NGs, some DVD thingies (like Bonjour Paris), some fanvids, some variety shows. I was well aware of everybody's names and pretty aware of personalities.
Jae's 4D personality, overall hotness, and singing ability totally killed my brain. I was, like,
infatuated. DBSK started to enter my brain all the time (unhealthy? maybe. But I liked it).
Yunho just kept amazing me, and he was so much fun on variety shows! (Particularly...was it XMan? Whichever show with the game 'of course'.) And I really started to hear his voice, y'know? I heard the incredibly deep notes during A Capella (it's AMAZING, okay, freaking
amazing).
Junsu's cuteness started to make an impression. I liked him well enough. His laugh was the most interesting thing (now it's the cutest thing). He was just cool.
I started to realize that, well, I just didn't know CHangmin's personality that well. I knew the others much more than him. So he dropped down my list a little.
Yoochun...maybe it was because he made a bad first impression on me? It's not that I disliked him at this point; he was awesome too, just like the others, but he just didn't make a huge fuss or catch my attention particularly.
Finally, my list now...the
Red.
What can I say about my sexy Jae? I love everything about him ^^ I know that I probably don't know that much...I vaguely know his backstory, I know his music, I know the parts of his personality that he's shown. I know his looks anywhere (he sticks out like a sore thumb, especially when trying to dress inconspicuously). And I like and accept it all. He's a caring umma to the others :P And he cooks and cleans (what more could a girl want?). My heart ached for him when he said he didn't really know how to smile...my heart ached when he looked tired, when his eyebags were puffier than usual, when his smile had disappeared. And then I watched the T Concert. He smiled brightly, laughed, his eyes shined, and I completely and utterly fell in
love. I would marry this man if I could, no question.
Junsu's personality finally got through to me. I watched the Junsu's Cuteness xD series on Youtube,a collection of his cute moments. It must be criminal for a grown man to look that cute. He's sexy on stage, cute otherwise. He has the most adorable, enticing laugh (you can't help but laugh with him), a smile like sunshine, a husky and beautiful voice. He has the most wonderful, breathtaking voice I've ever heard in my life. It's like he was
made for music. He says the funniest things (I will never forget 'Oh my god, SUN!' and 'Who's that?' ever) and does even funnier things. His hairstyles are great (I am a fan of the old, longish hair. And also the light brown, rooster-style hair). And he cares about the group like crazy. In recent videos when everyone looks down and sad, Junsu is always the one standing calm and tall, a smile on his face, the strength of the group.
Yunho will always have a place in my heart, even if it's no longer the top one. He has so much weight on his shoulders, I swear he's gained, like, ten years since he joined DBSK. His face looks old sometimes and painfully young others. He is mature, serious and attractive on stage, and immature, joking and still attractive otherwise. He likes to act cute (and he's good at it), and his dancing is amazing. You can see, from earlier videos until now, how his style evolved. It became unmistakeable. I don't think anyone can
really imitate it. He is just great. Leader does a great job of leading, without bullying the others. He really takes care of his members, always watching. (I saw an episode of Jihwaza with DBSK. Yunho had to memorize poses between the people and some bug-people. He knew the rest of DBSK's poses first, remembering them carefully.)
Yoochun finally moved up. I started to see his passion for music, his humor and handsomeness. He's mature and sexy (even his dancing, which I hadn't seen much of, is super sexy. He can really move his hips!), but not too serious. He's really close with everyone, knows everybody innately. It's like he has super senses. Yoochun really adores music. He has a soft, melodic voice that sounds great with many types of songs. He's a fabulous composer (even though lots of his songs are sad). He's gorgeous (it's just that he's often the victim of bad hairstyles. Yoochun is really very handsome). He's hardworking and dedicated and wonderful. And I really appreciate it.
Ah, Changmin...how far he fell from the top to the bottom! Sorry Min. Aside from his gorgeousness, I guess I couldn't always see the awesome in his personality? He is handsome for sure, tall and cute, and has a really nice smile. Changmin can also sing (what a scream those vocal chords can produce!), but of course all the members can. His dancing is of average ability (and he doesn't show it off very often), and he's more quiet than the others. He sits and listens, and observes, and
eats (he eats a ton, okay, how does somebody stay that thin when they eat so much!? Jealousy!). Sometimes you can really see the cute magnae, and sometimes he seems way too mature. I mean, it was decided that the cute image fit Junsu more than Changmin! He became the scary magnae with his super strength and name "Choikang", strongest. I still love him, of course, because I love all my Dong Bang Boys. I just...I dunno. I pay less attention? I can only watch one or two people at once.
Wah...monster post! Sorry if you don't wanna read all of this. It's just that I could go on about DBSK forever and ever...maybe, eventually I'll do Super Junior. But I'd have to cut that post into two or three parts!
