Playing CALL Origin

The term first came out of the Japanese concert Live support culture, which was originally a dance or pumping action performed by otaku or Japanese idol supporters, which included jumping, clapping, waving of the arms, and rhythmic chanting of slogans. In Japanese support culture, if fans can make neat movements and shout slogans with glow sticks and other glowing objects during an idol's performance, it can be a very important encouragement to the idol who is performing hard.

With the gradual popularity of this culture, a call-out culture has also developed in the country.
