OG K-pop group B.A.P has not only made a mark with their music but also fostered a deeply loyal fandom.

Recently on August 8th, members BANG YONGGUK, JUNG DAE HYUN, YOO YOUNGJAE, and MOON JONG UP have reunited for the first time in 7 years and released a new album 'CURTAIN CALL.' 

B.A.P fandom had a lightstick called 'Matoki' which was first released in 2012 and last sold in 2017. However, during the members' latest stage performance, the whole fandom showed up with their 'Matoki' lightsticks. 

Fans were even seen sharing information online about where to get their lightsticks fixed. Netizens commented: "So this is love... I'm tearing up because my group disbanded after just 3 years."

"I even saw a fan making her own lightstick with a green exfoliating towel on Twitter. Their dedication is something else." 

"I'm choking up right now. I hope they reclaim their group name and be successful."

"You see, sometimes I want to become an idol because of things like this. Who in the world will shower you with love like this other than your own parents?"

"This is so heartwarming."
