On November 14, Crayon Pop went to perform in an event in Cheonan. While the members were leaving the stage, a male fan tried to come close and hug ChoA. Because of that, online community sites have been posting the photo and claiming that ChoA was sexually harassed.
"The man turned up on stage in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province, on Thursday, while the group members were staging their latest hit song 'Bar Bar Bar'," Chrome Entertainment said.
It was reported that he pretended to shake hands with ChoA, who was about to walk down from the stage, but rushed toward her giving her a surprise hug. She then suddenly moved to keep away from contact, and then their manager also interceded to block the man's surprising action.
Chrome Entertainment sadi, "The manager pulled him away immediately, and fortunately there was not much physical contact. We decided to let him off with a warning." The representative of the agency also stated, "There was security guards patrolling the site, but the audience were so close to the stage, and the incident took place all of a sudden. We will set this as a lesson and put more effort into protecting Crayon Pop."
Crayon Pop plans make a comeback with the song "Ggurisumas," on November 26
