Highlight (formerly known as BEAST) is a four-member boy group under Around US Entertainment. They debuted on October 16, 2009, with the mini album 'Beast Is The B2ST.'

After their seven-year contracts with Cube Entertainment had ended, they decided not to renew them. They then established their own agency called Around US Entertainment. On February 24, 2017, Around US announced they had changed their name to Highlight, which is also the title of their final album under Cube. They released their first mini album Can You Feel It? on March 20 of the same year.

In March 2019, member Junhyung became involved in an adult-related scandal. Following this, on March 14, 2019, Junhyung apologized for his actions and announced his departure from Highlight.

On April 2, Around US Entertainment announced that they had reached a mutual agreement regarding the use of the trademark rights for the name BEAST. Nevertheless, the group continues promoting under the name Highlight. Through this agreement, Highlight regained full rights to the BEAST name and discography, placing their past releases under the group’s official ownership once again.
