Chocolat

Chocolat is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of T-ara, Girls' Generation and 2NE1. Those roots explain a lot about how Chocolat arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Cymbals, After School, BESTie, Rania and T-ara, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Base Ball Bear, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 14 connections around Chocolat, reaching back through T-ara and forward to Base Ball Bear. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.

Background

Chocolat (Korean: 쇼콜라), commonly stylized as ChoColat, was a South Korean girl group created by Paramount Music in 2011. The group's name stems from the idea that each member is reminiscent of a different type of chocolate. The name of the group was initially going to be "Chocolate", but there was already a group with that name, so Paramount Music decided to use the French word chocolat instead. The group consists of a total of five former members: Jaeyoon, Min Soa, Juliane, Tia and Melanie. The group became inactive in 2013. After four-year of hiatus with a little group activity, Melanie confirmed in an interview that the group members' contracts had concluded in February 2017 and the group had disbanded.
