1* BreakthroughHit - "Bar Bar Bar"
2* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: [[http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yMqL1iWfku4/maxresdefault.jpg It]] [[http://tinyurl.com/ztuznv6 shows]] [[http://www.soompi.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/crayon-pop3.png up]] [[http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/kgirl_lover-kpop123/imgs/6/a/6a9f0715.jpg occasionally]] (and helps to tell the identical twins apart when it does). For the record:
3** Choa: Red
4** Gummi: Blue
5** Soyul: Yellow
6** Ellin: Pink
7** Way: Orange
8* CreatorBacklash: Very little video/photo evidence exists from their days as Hurricane Pop, mostly because Chrome isn't very proud of it, and has things like this early version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTV7N44iqOI "Bing Bing"]] deleted pretty quickly.
9** Serang isn't the old shame, though. In fact, she has posted photos of her with Crayon Pop members on her Twitter that were taken after she left the group.
10* DyeHard: Way's hair has varied between brunette, red, and blonde. Currently she has light brown hair.
11** As more minor examples, Choa had blonde hair at one point, and Ellin's hair has gone from brunette to blonde, strawberry blonde, and now black with blonde streaks.
12* FanCommunityNicknames - Sketchbook
13** Many of their fans are older men, so they are referred to as Pop-jussi. Female fans are Pop-jumma. The dividing line seems to be if that you are older than Gummi, you are one of these.
14** Crayon Pop fans have also been referred to as Cuties, but this has become less popular.
15** In addition, each member's fans have names:
16*** Gummi: Gum Li Dang
17*** Ellin: Eldorado
18*** Choa: Choppa
19*** Way: Wayland
20*** Soyul: Haebaragi
21* LeslieNielsenSyndrome - As Hurricane Pop and in Crayon Pop's early days, their image was closer to a traditional idol group, albeit still LighterAndSofter than their [[KoreanPopMusic K-Pop]] contemporaries. To make themselves stand out, they moved away from serious and slightly sexy and started wearing the tracksuits and introducing more light-hearted choreography.
22** Compare [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3wnue2ivNg Saturday Night]] to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXiZsHymKXc Dancing Queen]].
23* MemeAcknowledgment - Crayon Pop has mentioned that they have seen many of the dance covers of "Bar Bar Bar" that get posted on Website/YouTube.
24* NoBudget - Crayon Pop hasn't ever had much of one to work with, being from a small company. However, they have made good with what was given to them.
25** Their trademark guerrilla concerts originated from this. Because they were not popular enough and couldn't buy slots on the music shows, they began to perform [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuSoxZEFTHs anywhere they could]] to garner public interest.
26*** Although their newfound fame makes it harder, they still do them on occasion, but they're more [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmjOsWaIT1Y official.]]
27** The girls all lived in one small, cramped apartment at the beginning of their careers. They have since moved to a bigger one, as their CEO promised if "Bar Bar Bar" got a win.
28** Speaking of "Bar Bar Bar," the music video was supposedly made on a budget of less than $300.
29** They also reportedly used to do their own makeup for performances following their debut, even televised ones.
30** Because of the ongoing changes at Chrome, ''Evolution Pop, Vol. 1'' was entirely self-made by the girls. Their roles:
31*** Geummi and Ellin: Costumes
32*** Choa: Hair styles and makeup
33*** Way: Marketing, promotion strategy, and music video production
34*** Soyul: Logo and album cover design
35* ThePeteBest: Former member Serang left early in the group's existence, and was replaced by Way.
36* SleeperHit: "Bar Bar Bar" was not a very successful song until it went viral as a dance craze.
