- Minzy vs. HyunA (back then a member of 4Minute), Ga-In (Brown Eyed Girls) and Nicole (back then a member of KARA). Minzy handily
walked away with the competition. - CL and Dara got trapped in a building (on different floors) during the Tohoku earthquake, and CL (who was on a lower level) climbed back up the stairs to save/help Dara.
- CL's line "Yeah, in the club it’s getting ugly - I don’t care, can’t nobody stop the fire, let them haters sit 'n' stare◊!" from "Falling In Love"note .
- Minzy admitting she had plastic surgery done, since in the K-Pop world, plastic surgery is highly stigmatized. Netizens will bombard "ugly" idols with "Ugh, s/he needs work done!", only to then say "So plastic/fake!" if an idol gets the surgery. Ironically, Minzy's announcement was met by "Oh, she looks so good." Amusingly, YG initially tried to deny the rumours and claimed it was only makeup/the camera angle. However, responses weren't as nice when Minzy allegedly had more work done.
- Their second album Crush scored an instant all-kill and knocked Girls' Generation's new album right off the top of the charts. It garnered much more interest and even had netizens (and some SNSD fans) admitting that the album is better than SNSD's Mr. Mr.!
- Their surprise MAMA 2015 performance, which nobody saw coming... Also Harsher in Hindsight when you realize that was their final performance as a group - until 2022, that is.
- Their surprise performance at Coachella in 2022, making them the second female kpop group to do so and their first performance as a group in 7 years. You really have to watch it to understand - there are the usual cheers as "I Am The Best" starts up, but then you see the familiar silhouettes, the crowd's cheers become intense... and then you get the reveal and the crowd goes wild. In an even more awesome moment, both Dara◊ and Minzy◊ revived their old hairstyles from the original video!
