Winter, intrigued by the distinct red light among the sea of purple (aespa’s lightstick color), queried the fans about the artist they support. Upon hearing “TWICE” as the answer, Winter warmly responded, “We love them too!

The ambiance took a spirited turn when Ningning gracefully performed TWICE’s “TT” choreography, and Karina soon followed with a dance move from “Cheer Up.”

The episode provided a window into Aespa’s genuine warmth and camaraderie with other artists. Their welcoming response was applauded by fans and netizens who appreciated their down-to-earth demeanor.

Many voiced how refreshing it was to see artists acknowledge fans irrespective of the group they support, putting music and mutual admiration above competitive fandoms.

However, not everyone was on the same page. While Aespa’s reaction was overwhelmingly positive, a segment of fans voiced concerns about concert etiquette. They believed that bringing another group’s lightstick to a solo concert, especially when the group has its own, is a mark of disrespect.

They opined that being a multifandom supporter is acceptable, but there is a time and place for everything.

This incident reignites a broader conversation about fandom culture. Lightsticks, beyond being mere tools of support, also represent the underlying layers of competition and loyalty within the K-pop world. Such instances push fans and artists alike to reflect on the essence of concerts — is it solely about undivided loyalty, or can it also be a space to celebrate music as a whole?
