39 | Tropes related to Orange Caramel: |
40 | |
41 | * BreakoutCharacter: |
42 | ** They're more popular than their original group (After School). |
43 | ** The subunit catapulted Nana as the most popular After School member. Previously that spot belonged to Uee. Even former leader Kahi admits Nana's popularity keeps increasing, while Uee's keeps decreasing. |
44 | * TheCameo: Both Minhyun and JR from Music/{{Nuest}} make appearances in the Shanghai Romance and Bangkok City music videos respectively. However, those videos released before Nu'est debuted, making it a case of RetroactiveRecognition. |
45 | * CostumePorn: They have worn many elaborate outfits on stage, but their food-themed costumes during "Catallena" promotions were perhaps the most detailed and complex of them all. |
46 | * {{Crossdresser}}: The "girl" in a wedding dress in "Lipstick" and the octopus from "Catallena" are both played by men. |
47 | * TheCutie: |
48 | ** Raina is almost the archetype of the cute Asian girl. |
49 | ** Lizzy is known for her aegyo, especially saying "aing!"[[note]]A popular exclamation in aegyo[[/note]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1UWnpNARUM a lot]]. |

52 | * HeatWave: The beginning of "Abing Abing." |
53 | * {{Homage}}: |
54 | ** The video for "My Copycat" features scenes made to look like "Spot the Difference" puzzles and "Literature/WheresWally" books. |
