🌈✨ K-Pop Lightstick Guide ✨🌈

Everything you need to know about official K-Pop lightsticks — pastel, sparkly, and totally kawaii 💕

💡 What Is a Lightstick?

A lightstick (also called a cheering stick) is the glowing symbol of love between fans and idols 🌸 Each one has its own design, fandom color, and Bluetooth sync that connects during concerts — creating a magical light ocean ✨

📦 Versions & Generations

  • 1st Gen: Basic LED light powered by AAA batteries.
  • 2nd Gen: Brighter LEDs and Bluetooth connection for concert syncing.
  • 3rd Gen +: Stronger brightness, app pairing, smoother color transitions 💫
  • Limited Editions: Pastel, holographic, or black collector designs for special events.

📱 Bluetooth & App Compatibility

Most lightsticks connect to official apps like Weverse Lightstick, Beyond LIVE, or group-specific apps 💖 You can sync colors during concerts or change them manually in app mode 🌈 Always use the official app — unofficial ones may cause pairing errors.

🔋 Power & Battery Types

  • 🌸 All Lightsticks: Use 3 × AAA batteries. You can also use a USB-C rechargeable battery pack if your lightstick supports it. Using AAA rechargeable batteries is also an option — it’s completely up to you!
  • 💖 All Light Bands: Are USB-C rechargeable and can be charged directly using a cable.
  • ITZY Light Band: Cannot use rechargeable batteries — it only works with regular AAA batteries.
  • 💡 Tip: Always remove or disconnect batteries after use to prevent corrosion or battery drain.

🛡️ Authenticity Check

  • Look for official hologram stickers (HYBE, JYP, SM, YG, etc.).
  • Scan QR codes or serial numbers to verify through your group’s app.
  • Buy from trusted K-Pop shops, concert booths, or official online retailers.
  • 🚫 Avoid fakes — they might not connect, could overheat, or stop working quickly.

🔗 How to Pair via Bluetooth

  1. Download your group’s official lightstick app.
  2. Insert batteries and hold the power button until the light flashes.
  3. Open the app → tap “Pair Lightstick.”
  4. Follow the steps — once paired, the LED color will change 💡
  5. Switch to Concert Mode to sync automatically during shows ✨

🧼 Care & Storage Tips

  • Store in a cool, dry place — avoid sunlight and humidity.
  • Keep in a dust bag or original box for protection.
