An official, group-branded battery-powered glow stick that fans bring to K-pop concerts. Each group has its own shape — ARMY Bomb (BTS), Carat Bong (Seventeen), Candy Bong (TWICE) — and they sync via Bluetooth so the whole arena lights up in coordinated waves. Owning your group's lightstick is basically the membership card.

“Bringing my lightstick to the venue early, the Bluetooth sync at the encore is everything.”
