Team Red or Team Blue? Dividing K-Pop groups into units is nothing out of the ordinary; it’s a maneuver that entertainment agencies have taken part in for many years. Following the success of Orange Caramel, After School has now formed not one but two new sub-units with simultaneous single releases.
Split into four members each, A.S. Red presents a sexy and powerful concept, while A.S. Blue is cute and sporty. AS Blue is at its core, Orange Caramel, but with two new members. From the bubbly arrangements and cutesy style to the 90’s vocal processing, AS Blue seems like they’re basically a sub-unit of a sub-unit. While Orange Caramel is known for pushing cuteness to its limits, AS Blue pulls back on that tactic just enough to avoid overly-saturating their audience with their syrupy-sweet image.
As decided by fan voting, A.S. Blue consists of Joo Yeon, Raina, Lizzy, and E-Young. The girls confess to their Wonder Boy with a sweet and fresh summer love song by “Magic Girl” and A~ing♡ composer Cho Young Soo. The Blue single album also includes the new track Lady.
