HIGHLIGHT

<p>K-pop fans in Malaysia had their curiosity piqued last week when GME International, a well-known concert organiser, posted a cryptic teaser image on social media. The visual &mdash; a delicate flower trapped inside a glowing lightbulb, surrounded by heavy metal chains &mdash; was anything but random. It was instantly recognised by loyal fans as a symbolic nod to HIGHLIGHT&rsquo;s official lightstick and their latest single, &ldquo;Chains&rdquo;.</p>
<p>The teaser quickly sparked speculation that the veteran K-pop group would soon be announcing a concert in Malaysia. Fan theories began circulating online, with many interpreting the motifs as a clear message: HIGHLIGHT is coming back.</p>
<p><strong>From BEAST to HIGHLIGHT: A Journey of Reinvention and Resilience<br /></strong></p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0407dbf0bac1578241c123d4a8902e80adc05ece6905447efaabd559ed2566ad" /></strong></p>
<p>HIGHLIGHT, formerly known as BEAST (비스트), is one of K-pop&rsquo;s most enduring and respected groups, celebrated for their emotional storytelling, musical versatility, and unwavering bond with fans. Originally debuting in 2009 under Cube Entertainment, BEAST quickly rose to stardom with powerful performances and iconic hits like &ldquo;Shock,&rdquo; &ldquo;Fiction,&rdquo; &ldquo;Beautiful,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Beautiful Night.&rdquo; Their 2011 track &ldquo;Fiction&rdquo; earned them Song of the Year at the KBS Music Festival and solidified their place as one of the leading acts of second-generation K-pop.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1kcwvcbO8MI" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>Though initially dubbed a &ldquo;recycled group&rdquo; due to members' previous setbacks in the industry, BEAST defied expectations and built a legacy through talent, perseverance, and a string of chart-topping albums, including <em>Fiction and Fact</em> and <em>Time</em>, the latter of which won Record of the Year at the Seoul Music Awards.</p>
<p>In 2016, after leaving Cube Entertainment, remaining members Yoon Doo-joon, Yang Yo-seob, Lee Gi-kwang, and Son Dong-woon took a bold leap. They reintroduced themselves as HIGHLIGHT under their own label, Around Us Entertainment, signaling a fresh chapter in both identity and artistry. Their 2017 re-debut with <em>Can You Feel It?</em> and its upbeat single &ldquo;Plz Don&rsquo;t Be Sad&rdquo; proved to be a triumphant return, topping Korean music charts and reaffirming their popularity.</p>
<p>Since then, HIGHLIGHT has continued to evolve, releasing well-received tracks like &ldquo;Can Be Better,&rdquo; &ldquo;BODY,&rdquo; &ldquo;Take Care,&rdquo; &ldquo;Switch On,&rdquo; and most recently, &ldquo;Chains,&rdquo; a powerful anthem praised for its emotional depth and maturity. Their discography is a testament to their growth, with each release showcasing a refined sound and introspective lyricism that resonates with long-time fans and new listeners alike.</p>
<p>Now celebrating over 15 years in the industry, HIGHLIGHT remains a symbol of reinvention and loyalty. Their enduring success speaks volumes about their artistry and the unwavering support of their dedicated fanbase, LIGHTs, who have followed their journey from BEAST to legends in their own right.</p>
