The handle features a transparent upper case showcasing the Team Korea logo, making it instantly recognizable.

This addition makes it stand out and shows off national pride in a big way.

The handle has the same transparent upper case with the Team Korea logo, which looks super sleek. But the real magic happens when you turn it on.

Special Events at the Korea House

Finally, as a part of the collaboration programs between HYBE and KSOC, you will witness special cheering events happening at the “Korea House,” the cheering base for Team Korea at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Cheering Lightstick Performance

On July 27, the day after the opening ceremony, hundreds of people, including the athletes’ families and key figures from various countries, will gather in the outdoor garden of the “Korea House” to watch and cheer for the South Korean team together.

And at this very event, HYBE will distribute the lightsticks to all attendees for a synchronized “cheering stick performance.” This performance will involve coordinating the colors and lighting of the lightsticks to match the cheering slogans. Controlled centrally, it will ensure that the lightsticks light up in unison, creating a spectacular wave of light.

Imagine the Olympic cheering scene transformed into a colorful and dynamic light show reminiscent of a Kpop concert. This lightstick showcase is going to be a dazzling display of support for Team Korea athletes.

Team Korea Cheering Events and Exhibitions

Adding to the excitement, HYBE Labels artists, including BSS (Seungkwan, DK, Hoshi) unit of the all-time best seller SEVENTEEN, will participate in the “Team Korea Cheering Challenge.” They will kick off the challenge with a powerful dance cheer to hit song that has been selected as the official theme for Team Korea, “Fighting.” And it will all be broadcast through social media.

Indeed, during the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympics, South Korea will turn the “Korea House” into a hub for K-content promotion. HYBE will provide music videos and original entertainment content featuring their artists to be displayed at the events.

Additionally, they will also hold various fun events involving large dolls of ‘WOOTTEO,’ a character commemorating BTS Jin’s single album “The Astronaut.”

The stunning official lightstick will then be displayed along with the Team Korea 2024 Olympics at a special “Korea House” exhibition.

With the grand exhibition and stunning lightstick in hand, South Korea will set a whole new standard for the upcoming Paris Olympics 2024.
