Why they might be annoying:

    Originally called ‘21’ – straight – their handlers discovered another Korean artist who used that exact same handle.
    They put out two eponymous extended plays (EP’s — read, self-titled, 2009 and 2011).
    They appeared on a Bachelor episode (Juan Pablo Galavis’ season), mentoring six of his candidates to be their backup dancers at a live mall show.
    There is a ten-year age difference between oldest member Bom and youngest member Minzy.
    A Forbes writer regarded them as being bigger than PSY.

Why they might not be annoying:

    It can be pronounced ‘twenty-one’ or ‘to anyone’ — the latter of which is an album title.
    Except for Minzy, they all have a surprisingly good grasp of English.
    They collaborated with two Black Eyed Peas members (‘Take the World On’ with him and ‘Gettin’ Dumb with him).
    Collectively, they regard TLC and the Spice Girls as an inspiration.
    In fairness to the Forbes writer’s claims, ‘Crush’ entered the Billboard 200 at #61 — the highest-charting K-Pop album to that point. Without any promotional teasers.
