Concert announcements, especially those involving K-pop artists, are always exciting, but teasing fans about who might be coming next can have everyone on the edge of their seats, eagerly guessing. Several brands have teased fans with hints about special guests making, or having already made, surprise appearances in Kuala Lumpur.
Now, it seems another K-pop group is set to make its way to our shores very soon. GME International, known for organising various events and concerts featuring international artists, recently hinted at another exciting announcement. In a post on their Instagram Story, the company suggested they may be bringing a popular K-pop boy group to perform in concert later this year. Here’s what we know so far:
Earlier today (Wednesday, 14th May), GME International shared an Instagram Story teasing fans about the next artist set to perform in Malaysia. The image featured a flower encased in a lightbulb, with metal chains in the background, with the words “Who’s Next?” displayed at the top. Fans were invited to submit their guesses via the “Stay Tuned” sticker.
The Instagram Story has since gone viral on Twitter, with K-pop fans expressing their excitement over a potential concert announcement. While nothing has been officially confirmed, many fans speculate that the upcoming K-pop act could be HIGHLIGHT (하이라이트),also known as BEAST (비스트). This theory stems from two key details in the teaser image: the boy group’s official lightstick is shaped like a lightbulb, and their latest song is titled “Chains”.
As seen in the screenshots above, many fans are convinced that the mystery act is HIGHLIGHT, based on the clues provided. Others have urged the concert organiser to make an official announcement soon, eager to start saving for tickets.
If the rumours turn out to be true, this would mark the group’s third visit to Malaysia, their first being in 2011, and the last in 2013, when they were still active as BEAST. This would also be their first performance in the country as HIGHLIGHT and since parting ways with Cube Entertainment.
