From Everglow to ILLIT: K-Pop groups without official lightsticks

K-pop has taken the world by storm with its vibrant performances, catchy melodies, and dedicated fandoms. One signature aspect of K-pop concerts is the lightstick—unique, branded LED devices that fans wave to show their support for their favourite groups.

Each lightstick is designed to reflect the group's identity and colours, creating a stunning visual display during performances. While many groups have official lightsticks, some, like Everglow and ILLIT, have yet to release their own, leaving fans to wonder if they will ever be introduced.
