K-pop lightsticks have long been more than just glowing accessories. They light up concerts, symbolize fandom pride, and, in some cases, even serve practical purposes. From helping fans navigate dark streets to offering comic relief in political moments, these glowing sticks are evolving beyond their traditional use. Now, one creative WayV fan has found an innovative way to enhance their concert experience using their group’s official lightstick.
Unlike many K-pop lightsticks with dome-shaped tops that fans often customize, the WayV lightstick features a distinctive deep V in its design. This unique shape made it challenging for fans to open and decorate the inside like they would with other groups’ lightsticks. However, one resourceful fan turned this design into an advantage by converting their lightstick into a handy telescope stand.
A Concert-Ready Innovation
Using the deep crevice in the lightstick, the fan nestled a telescope lens securely inside. This unexpected transformation allowed them to attach the telescope to their phone’s camera lens, creating the perfect tool for capturing clear videos of their favorite idols from a distance. With this setup, they could cheer for WayV while recording, all with one hand.
“What’s really good about the leek-shaped lightstick is that you can put a telescope in the middle,” the fan shared.
“You can take videos, and you can hold the lightstick with just one hand. It’s two birds with one stone. A foreign Wayzennie saw it and told me it was a good idea.”
This simple yet effective trick is a game-changer for fans who struggle to juggle their lightsticks, phones, and other concert essentials. With this hack, WayV fans—affectionately known as Wayzennies—can now enjoy an immersive concert experience without worrying about missing the perfect shot.
K-pop fans are known for their creativity, and this inventive use of a lightstick is just another example of how they continue to surprise the world. Who knows what genius lightstick hack will come next?
