If you’ve ever had the pleasure of attending a K-pop concert, you might have seen fans holding what looks like a fancy glow stick. The iconic sight of thousands of glowing lights flickering on and off through the crowd at a show is a thing of beauty that can only be likened to twinkling stars in the night sky.

This high-shine item is a light stick, and it’s very important to a K-Pop fan’s concert-going experience. Wide and tall, neon green and square, round and diamond-shaped: these light sticks come in all sizes and shapes, meant to represent their respective K-Pop groups. You’ve got neon green for NCT, a pink and black hammer for BLACKPINK, a lightbulb meets bomb design for BTS, interlocking symbols for TXT and so on and so forth. Light stick designs implement specific colors or symbols that represent the band and are created sometime around the K-pop group’s debut, if not a little while after.

Fans of these groups will tote their light sticks to concerts, signaling to their fellow diehareds that their love for said group runs deep. These light sticks are used in boisterous fan chants, another iconic practice of K-Pop concert attendees, or moved to the beat of a song. Oftentimes, light sticks will be put into “concert mode,” controlled by event staff via Bluetooth to create a synchronized light show that syncs up to the beat of each track. If you’ve ever experienced this phenom, it’s quite beautiful, even emotional. While light sticks have become a symbol of camaraderie and fandom, it wasn’t always this way.

Light sticks weren’t introduced to K-pop until 2006 when BIGBANG, a boy group under YG Entertainment, dropped a design consisting of a crown atop a light source for their fans aka VIPs. Before that, hit 90s groups like H.O.T and g.o.d. utilized balloons in band-specific colors, usually white, to differentiate fans from one another.
Once BIGBANG dropped their light stick, or “Bang Bong,” other groups quickly followed suit. Since its conception, there have been some crazy light stick designs over the years, from Golden Child‘s bowling pin design and I.O.I’s ice cream light stick to Cherry Bullet’s water gun and iKON’s baseball bat design. It’s safe to say that light sticks have come a long way, transforming from the humble balloon to symbols of unity amongst fans.
