As it turns out, these fans were approached before the show began due to their wearing of traditional Korean clothing, and photographed for this moment. In return, they were given small purple pouches featuring the “Arirang” logo and a floral design.

One does not have to be dressed in a full hanbok, according to other fans, but feature traditional Korean wear in the outfit to be selected.
What a cool way to celebrate the blending of cultures!
