Last week, Galaxy Corporation suddenly announced that G-Dragon (Big Bang) will launch its personal lightstick after 19 years of operation.
Promotional photo for the G-Dragon lightstick with a design of one-winged chrysanthemums makes fans extremely excited.
This is an iconic image associated with G-Dragon. The male singer has used the image of chrysanthemums in many music products and in designs of the Peaceminusone fashion brand he founded.
But recently, when fans witnessed the G-Dragon lightstick in real life, it continued to create a passionate wave.
Chamomile Lightstick was displayed at the media exhibition G-Dragon: Overmensch, held from March 9 to 19 in Korea.
According to fans who have the opportunity to participate in the exhibition, the real-life image of lightsticks is even more beautiful and sparkling in the advertisement.
G-Dragon's Lightstick is shaped like a white chrysanthemum with yellowish edges, including trunks and leaves. Chamomile trees can be fixed with a flower pot-shaped stand.
This pot has a lighting system and acts as a backup battery, which will help the lightstick light up even without a separate battery.
When turned on the lightstick, in addition to white, the chamomile flowers also have a brilliant rainbow display mode, with each flower petal having a different color.
In addition, G-Dragon sells additional mini chrysanthemum key hooks that also have a turn-on mode similar to the real lightstick.
According to photos taken by fans at the exhibition, the prices of these products are not cheap. Hand-held chamomile Lightsticks cost 55,000 won, while flower pots cost 25,000 won and mini keychains cost 27,000 won.
Most fans will buy a set of lightsticks and flower pots when buying the product, so it is possible to calculate that this set of products is worth up to 80,000 won (about 1.4 million VND).
Compared to the general level of the Kpop idol group lightstick market, this is a fairly high price, even double the lightsticks of many other artists.
A part of the audience expressed concern about this price: "The pot sold separately is too expensive, but if there is no pot, it is lacking", "Lightsticks are really cute, but the price is not cute at all", "The price is terrible. We have truly entered an era where the flickering stick costs up to more than 50,000 won...
However, when the real images and videos of the lightstick G-Dragon spread online, the reaction of most audiences was very positive, despite the fake issue.
On the online community Theqoo, even non-G-Dragon fans commented that they wanted to buy lightsticks and keychairs.
Many people are surprised because the lightsticks and the selling price are separately, making the total product value quite high, but they think that the overall design is so beautiful that it can be used as a furniture decoration, so buying a set of products is worth the money.
