I had the idea to write about this cute trio as soon as I listened to one of their songs today!
Lizzy, Nana and Raina
A sub-unit of veteran girl band After School, Orange Caramel is the definition of cutesy. Debuting in June 2010 with their first mini-album 'Magic Girl', the trio was able to get in the spotlight by showing their singing abilities combined with bubbly songs and colorful costumes.
'Magic Girl''s Music Video - step aside, non-cute artists!
While the song dominated the sales charts (and all the idol world, with many parodies of the dance being performed on variety shows), the concept disappointed some After School fans. Still, Orange Caramel continued to spread the cuteness with the song's promotion.
With such success, the group didn't take long to comeback. In September 2010, the girls released their second mini-album called 'A~ing♡'. Now with a fairytale concept, the song turned to be another hit despite some people saying that it was too similar to 'Magic Girl'. They surely didn't hear it enough.

During the promotions of the new title track, the trio was able to win some weekly music awards. Their songs were also ranked as the most played at korean karaokes, which demonstrates the power of cutesy. Fans can be sure to expect more adorable lyrics and bright costumes in 2011, even with After School's comeback planned.
Backstage cuteness
I can't stop listening to their songs! I hope this post was cute enough to represent their almighty cuteness and that I said 'cute' as many times as possible to properly convey my message full of cutesy. I know it was a short trip into the world of fluffy bunnies and marshmallows, but there isn't really a lot to say about a group that started this year...sorry!
Can I have some cookies now? :3
(By the way, you can also watch their Dance Version of 'A~ing♡''s music video on Youtube and learn the choreography to help spread the cuteness!)

Oh boy, that is surely an avalanche of cup-cake shaped kite-surfing minions of cuteness. OC packs quite a stupefying punch of playfulness and joy indeed, my dear marshmallow-devourer writing style adept and kpop specialist friend.
