Around US Entertainment stated on November 10, "Highlight will not be able to attend this year's year-end music award programs due to their busy schedules, including the members' album promotions as well as their individual promotions through varieties, acting, and overseas activities. However, they will do their best to wrap up the year by giving their all for the group's year-end solo concert and individual promotions. Please give them your support and attention." 

Instead of attending year-end music awards and programs, Highlight will be greeting fans with their own, year-end solo concerts this coming December 21-23, to celebrate their 8th anniversary since debut. 'Highlight Live 2017 - Celebrate' in Seoul will be held at the Jamsil Arena.
