Beyond his ephemeral membership in the worldwide phenomenon BTS, J-Hope stands out with his unique, self-introductory personality. The 1994 Liner’s tenure as the septet’s “dance leader” had its roots in his time before BTS and was well-deserved.
Becoming the first Korean artist to headline a major US music festival, his 2022 Lollapalooza performance was a watershed moment. With the release of Jack in the Box, the Grammy winner formally entered the realm of solo artists. This month, the 30-year-old rapper will release another landmark album, continuing his winning streak even though he has been absent for his mandatory military service.

South Korean street dancer Boogaloo Kin, who was a member of BTS’s old dance class, will be returning with him on this adventure. Along their dance venture around the world, they will visit Gwangju (J-hometown Hope’s), Osaka, Seoul, Paris, and New York, where they will encounter inspired street dancers.
