Since lightsticks are thoughtfully custom-made for each group and intended to represent their fandom, some fans feel it’s inappropriate and even disrespectful to bring another artist’s lightstick to someone’s concert.

“we don’t have enough money to buy another lightstick” okay then use your phone’s flashlight BUT if you really can’t then just don’t use anything at all i promise you it’s impossible for them to have a black ocean cause they have more than enough fans that owns their official ls

Lightsticks are a fun part of the K-Pop concert experience. So, fans will often bring theirs or purchase them at the venue if they are available. Yet, the lightsticks can be expensive, and since fans might belong to multiple K-Pop fandoms, they might not be able to afford every group’s lightstick. Still wanting to be part of the experience, they might bring one a lightstick of another artist’s. Besides, it’s still a great way to ensure the prevention of a “black ocean,” which is usually an organized protest of a performing artist when the audience turns off their light sticks.
not people getting seriously mad
just imagine 3/4 of the people there go without bc you said so and the artists gets a black ocean yeah that would be a lot better right https://t.co/vcnomUYL15— sana loves jungwon |
