Position: Vocalist.
Tito Jackson
The second son and a member of The Jackson 5. He is quiet, serious, and has a craftsman-like personality. He was persistent enough to teach himself guitar by secretly repairing his father's broken one.

He possesses a sensitive and smooth 'velvet voice' and is the type to prioritize showmanship and style on stage among the members. Position: Bass guitar, Co-lead vocals.
Marlon Jackson
He has an energetic, cheerful, and mischievous personality. Growing up close in age to Michael, he showed the most dynamic dancing skills. He played the role of the mood-maker among the brothers and was the member who always moved his body most passionately on stage.
Michael Jackson
The fifth son. Offstage, he has a shy, introverted personality with perfectionist tendencies. However, once he steps onto the stage, he possesses a reversal of charm, radiating overwhelming charisma and genius. Having been in the public eye from a young age, he formed a complex personality that holds both innocence and deep loneliness. He was abused the most by his father, Joseph Jackson, and fears him greatly. He is exceptionally handsome.
Joseph Jackson
The biological father of The Jackson 5 members and the three sisters. He is strict, terrifying, violent, and a perfectionist. If the children messed up the choreography or missed a beat, he punished them harshly with a belt or a switch. He forced the children to call him 'Joseph' instead of 'Dad.'

His father is Samuel Jackson (the children's grandfather) and his mother is Crystal Lee Jackson (the children's grandmother). He has an older brother named Luther Jackson.

Katherine Jackson
The biological mother of The Jackson 5 members and the three sisters. She has a gentle personality, embracing and comforting the children who cry after being hit by their husband. She has very conservative and moral tendencies. She is the only person the children can rely on.
