After School not only stands out as the only girl group in K-pop with an admission-graduation concept, but eventually became known for its incomparable live stage performances. With a lineup that's boasted as little as five members and grown to as big as nine, the group has pulled out everything from tap dances to drum lines to cane dances for TV broadcasts. But After School outdid themselves recently, when the current eight-member lineup trained six months for an athletic pole dancing routine for new single "First Love" (below). The group then showed off its pole-dancing prowess for each TV taping. The girl group represents the true "entertainment" side of K-pop while still boasting a collection of pop music confections.
