Members of girl group Crayon Pop are donning Christmas headbands instead of their usual helmets for the release of a special Christmas single at the end of the month.

The song, titled “Ccoohristmas,” was written by the same composer who wrote hit song “Bar Bar Bar” and will be released on Nov. 26.

The group released a teaser image for the song Monday, showing the five members dressed in festive green Christmas outfits and accessories.

The group debuted in 2012 with their first EP but failed to gain wide recognition until an appearance on “SNL Korea” in August 2013, when the quirky choreography and funny lyrics of “Bar Bar Bar” led to their wide success. The group recently released a global version of their hit song titled, “Bar Bar Bar 2.0.”

Meanwhile, Crayon Pop will travel to Hong Kong Wednesday and hold a collaboration performance at the “2013 Mnet Asian Music Awards” alongside ylvis, the Norwegian duo behind viral sensation “The Fox.”
