Member Chanmi revealed the story behind how the unit got its name, saying, "There were several suggestions from the company, but we didn't like any of them. Yuna unnie came up with the name, and when I first heart 'cream', I felt it portrayed both cute and sexy. There are so many different types of 'cream's, like ice cream, whipped cream, BB cream, etc. I thought if we chose it as our name, it would mean we could take on a variety of concepts."


The members also added, "The company wanted us to be AOA Rose. But we felt that was limiting and stereotypical as a female symbol." 


Regarding their activities, the unit mentioned, "We're likely going to promote around 3-4 weeks, which is a little disappointing. It might not be a one-time unit, we could come out with something new again. If we chose a different, unique concept the next time around, we would be able to show more sides of us three."
