EXO’s vocal king, D.O., just became the group’s first member to debut his very own lightstick, and the fan reaction is… complicated! On January 11, 2025, a surprise awaited EXO-Ls at his official pop-up store in Jamsil Lotte World Mall. The item? A sleek new lightstick— except the design is stirring debate, with some fans calling it a glorified water bottle, while other stans are simply happy now that D.O. has his own lightstick.

Priced at 45,000 won, this glowing fan light is causing wallet problems among certain EXO-Ls! They’re questioning if the lighting is worth throwing those big bucks. Some netizens joked it reminds them of a kitchen blender, pointing fingers at the design team for a perceived lack of creativity. Either way, it is palpable that many fans aren’t so thrilled about the new item.

Fans discovered this surprise without any formal announcement, sparking a flurry of tweets and online chatter. Some call it the worst lightstick ever; others like it regardless of the price and design. Anyhow, D.O. has officially joined the ranks of solo K-pop stars who are sporting their own merchandise beyond group activities.
