We can collectively admire SEVENTEEN’s Version 2 lightstick, and that’s a fact. The diamond shining in the middle, and the official colors of rose quartz and serenity? Oh, this one’s going down the history books with its dreamy and aesthetic design.
6. ITZY
This is a negotiable addition to this list, but we can’t help but love the innovation that JYP Entertainment did here. ITZY’s light ring may seem like a random design, but it’s one of the iconic and unique ones. Instead of carrying those sticks, a circle one is something new to look at, making it one of the best K-pop lightsticks.

9. Stray Kids Version 2
Another JYP Entertainment-represent on the list, Stray Kids’s Version 2, is such a beauty. Its back has a customizable OLED skin that would let the arena or stadium know who your bias is. Not to mention the details of the nachimbong it has on its logo, which writes, “You make Strays Kids stay.”
10. TXT
We wouldn’t end this list without adding TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s as one of the best K-pop lightsticks. You know what we love about this one? Its retractable handle makes it more handy and small bag-friendly. Who knew that lightsticks could be designed like that? And, of course, their color and logo are perfect for those flexing photo shots.
