Shocking debate erupts as group Cortiz’s official lightstick faces a wave of lookalike controversy with rapper B.I’s.
On online communities, users are pointing out similarities between Cortiz’s new official lightstick and B.I’s.
B.I’s previously released official lightstick features a rainbow-lit orb inside a white handle. Cortiz’s version also has a white handle with a transparent section that, when illuminated, forms a round, orb-like glow.
After videos and photos of Cortiz’s lightstick lighting up spread across social media, reactions poured in: “The two lightsticks look alike,” “They’re basically the same,” and “B.I’s looks prettier anyway.” Others pushed back, saying, “People are being too sensitive,” and “Both look like magical wands from an anime.”
Meanwhile, on July 18, Cortiz kicked off their first world tour, ‘PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN,’ at Incheon Inspire Arena.
