Highlight revealed how they came up with their official name on the March 19 broadcast of MBC's 'My Little Television-46'.


"Member Dongwoon was the one who suggested 'Highlight' at first. We all agreed on it in 5 minutes," the boys claimed.


Dongwoon commented, "'Highlight' was the title of B2ST's last album.  I had a poster of it lying on my kitchen table.  After seeing that, I asked my fellow members what they thought of 'Highlight'."


Kikwang added, "We decided on 'Highlight' since it was the most meaningful and it happened to be the title of our last album."


What are your thoughts on the name 'Highlight'?
