Edit: Is it just me, or is Bar Bar Bar kind of following the same kind of earworm aesthetic as "Tell Me?" /edit
Crayon Pop made their comeback this week with Bar Bar Bar, but I only just discovered this Bing Bing performance, and what is this pure gloriousness:

It's a tracksuit hands-in-pockets dance! Bandaid on the forehead! She's sucking on a lollipop WITH ATTITUDE instead of singing! Crabwalk! Cheap sunglasses popping interlude with Daft Punk! DAT BRASS
Remember those times T-ara also trolled the outfits departments by doing performances in tracksuits and ridiculous Christmas outfits? Crayon Pop is making that their full-time gimmick. ILUSFM.
THE FANS ARE WEARING TRACKSUITS AND WIGS. And there's been reports of them wearing the helmets for the Bar Bar Bar perfs, too.
They won't work in Japan because this kind of thing is already well-covered over there, (see my comparisons to Momoclo in the last CP post) but other than one-off special performances like with T-ara, this niche is wide open in Korea.
Although, this type of bubblegum pop is very very Kpop, and isn't common in Jpop at all, so they might have an in through music niche.
And somewhat ironic that this group has clearly got the power of fanboys, whereas part of MomoClo's infamy is as a Jpop girlgroup that girls like.

Okay, confirmed which two members are the twins.
Also, this is the best.
