HIGHLIGHT’s Yong Junhyung Rumored To Be Preparing To Resume Activities As A Producer Under A New Name

It’s been less than a year since his scandal.

Yong Junhyung, a former member of BEAST/HIGHLIGHT, is rumored to be preparing to resume his activities as a music producer under a different name.

A Twitter account found alleged proof that Yong Junhyung submitted a file for a possible logo for his new brand. He’s supposedly looking to start anew under the names “PURPLEMUSEUM” or “good life”.

Idol fans and everyone who listens to K-Pop Yong Junhyung seems to be preparing to write and compose songs under a new name like good life or purplemuseum so please keep a look out

A new Instagram account has popped up with the handle @purplemuseuminc with the same logo. Many believe Yong Junhyung may be started a new team, brand, or company under the name for his producing activities.

The account is currently set to private.

Yong Junhyung is one of the highest paid K-Pop artists in terms of royalties. He comes in 2nd right after G-Dragon with the most copyrights on songs and the substantial amount of royalties that follow.

He’s been producing since his days with HIGHLIGHT (formerly BEAST). He was their main producer and also had a long list of hit songs for other artists as well as himself as a soloist.

Yong Junhyung was accused of being a part of Jung Joon Young’s illegal sex-cam chatrooms earlier last year. He denied that he was part of the chatroom but had only been sent messages by Jung Joon Young on a 1:1 chatroom. He claims he had no part in the illegal activities.

As the scandal continued to rise, he officially withdrew from HIGHLIGHT and enlisted in the military. He is predicted to be discharged sometime in 2021.

HIGHLIGHT’s agency has not confirmed or responded to the rumors.
