In the Pohang Light Source storage ring, we empty 68 buckets of total 468 buckets to cure the conventional ion trapping. However, the fast beam-ion instability is occasionally generated at higher beam current. Immediately after the strong vertical beam shaking due to the fast beamion instability, the longitudinal coupled bunch mode instabilities are substantially damped down without any active feedback system. We have described the fast beam-ion instability driven longitudinal damping and its mechanism in the Pohang Light Source storage ring.
