Musicians react to hearing j-hope solo work for the very first time! 

J Hope headlined at Lollapalooza. You might like to see it to get the full range of his talents.

ARMY supports all the members of BTS, including in their solo endeavours. BTS introduced me to music genres I previously never listened to, and I have found myself a huge fan of the solo work of the three rappers of the group.

Everyone of Bts members have their own soloalbums, except Jin who will probably be releasing his by the end of this year. Bts members have allways had solosongs in their albums and all the rappers have multiple mix tapes before releasing their albums. Army supports all their solo careers also, it is a healthy way of them to express themselves outside Bts stuff. 💜

We would really appreciate if you turn on the captions when watching their MVs, so you can understand the lyrics💜

They all have gone solo before they went into their mandatory military service. They will all be out in 2025. J-hope did Lollapalooza in 2024, he was the headliner. His solo album is Jack in the Box is all good! Recently released J- hope On the Street..danceable tracks. He is a street dancer 1st, singer 2nd. Enjoy the 7 different rabbit holes..8 if you count group songs!!!

BTS always had solo songs in their albums and they had always released solo projects to express their personal colors and feelings outside of the group. When they started focusing on solo endeavors on 2022, they didn't shock or surprise the ARMYs. They announced what their plans are, their intentions, their reasons for doing so, and a rough timeline for when they will be able to get back together as a group. They didn't leave their fans blind and grappling in the dark. By communicating their plans and their feelings in a straightforward manner, the ARMYs naturally understood that they needed to do this and wholeheartedly support each members' music. Given that there a 7 very different individuals with 7 very colorful personalities, we were treated to a very varied type of music. There may be some that would not suit our personal taste (I personally does not like one member's album, not because it wasn't good, but because it is just not to my personal taste). But since we know the reason they do what they do, ARMYs support them 100%.

They are still BTS even when going solo. And their fans are still ARMY even for solo projects. We supports each and all of them.

The members are each other's biggest fans and supporters. And we were delighted to enjoy seven different genres of music from them when they released their solo albums before their enlistment. With the firm conviction that they would reunite as BTS after completing their military service, we wholeheartedly enjoy their solo endeavors as special events. All of them have expressed their excitement many times about the new color and synergy BTS will have when they regroup in 2025, having gained experience from their individual activities : ) They all said their personal undertakings would ultimately enrich their team endeavors, and ARMY cheered on their musical growth. The ego for solo careers that you may have seen lead to the disbandment of many bands will not happen to BTS. As proof of this, they happily share that before enlistment, they had already re-signed all contracts for their activities in 2025 as a whole group. Their bond and commitment to BTS remain unshaken. * Jin, the oldest member, was the first to be discharged from the military yesterday! *Just in case you don't know, they have usually included solo songs and unit tracks on their team albums even before.

J-Hope's Lollapalooza show was spectacular! Watch the whole thing. You won't be disappointed.

For real, for real, J Hope´s concert at Lollapalooza was the best in years. I think you will love it. It broke attendance records and it was named Hobipalooza. He is an extraordinary performer. Kept it so fire for more than an hour.

All 7 members want armys to support all 7. Anyone who calls themselves army supports all 7 members. Anyone who doesn’t support all 7 are not army and NONE of the members of BTS acknowledge their existence. Their fans, since debut in 2013 are ARMY, for all of them, when they have solo songs, unit songs, collabs with other artists, it’s always ARMY. Since they’re are on hiatus from group activities and are releasing their first official solo albums more “solos” are active, but real army is fighting strong and soon solos will all be gone. JK has ARMY tattooed on his hand and all of them introduce themselves as ______ of BTS. 7=1 | 7-1=0 APOBANGPO 2025 BORAHAE ARMY HAPPY FESTA 2024

To see their own styles in solosongs, I suggest Agust d Haegeum, Rm Wildflower, Jimin Set me free, Taehyung Love me again, Jin Astronaut, Jungkook Standing next to you 💜

J-Hope is most known as a dancer and rapper. He learns the choreography quickly, sometimes adjusts it, and then leads the other members through the dances. He’s a perfectionist. Before debut, he was a hip-hop/street dancer and had a dance team called Neuron. He was the third member to be chosen as a BTS member, after RM and Suga who were both underground rappers. They taught him how to rap and he eventually developed his own style. He can also sing. His nickname is Hobi. He has a very upbeat positive personality and the younger three members often look to him for guidance (the “Mom” of the group). He is ARMY’s Sunshine.

jhope was the first to start Chapter 2 , which is all members doing their own solo stuff.

True Army supports all 7 in solo and group endeavors!!!

J hope in Lollapalooza, is Awesome!! 😎

His Lollapalooza performance is top tier!!! He headlined the show with around 100k people watching onsite. You should definitely check it out.

BTS do not stick to one genre so when they release alternative, jazzy, electronica, rock, pop solos, it doesn't come as a shock to ARMY. That is what is so exciting about them. You can never predict what they will do next. It is so refreshing! Although he is currently in the military ( along with the rest of BTS), RM just released a very alternative album, Right Place, Wrong Person. He is an art lover and worked with artists and musicians as a collective rather than a regular group. He made quite a few videos and did a short chat with BTS member Jimin about it. Jimin loves alternative music too so it was a great insight. Worth a watch/listen.💜

It’s army for each and every single member. There are people who support only one of the members but the boys have always asked army to support all 7 of them.

we're very supportive of their solo works, it was an important chapter for them! army will always support them as a group on in solo projects. and doing solo work doesn't mean they're not in bts anymore, because they are! they're just not active as a group since mid 2022 bc of the military enlistment

J Hope is very talented and the next member to be released from the military (October). His latest album HOTS Vol. 1 with its accompanying docu-series on Prime Video was so good. Also his 2022 solo performance at Lollapalooza was great. He is a fantastic dancer and also a producer and writer, in addition to having very good vocals. Also, listen to Arson, also from his Jack in the Box album (reference faces of guitarists in More are "burned" not demons.) He is very diverse. All seven men are very different and very talented. . . that's what makes the group so great.

J Hope did an Award Show Stage of his songs 'More', 'Arson' and a song off his other solo Album Jack In the Box he also has Album 'Hope World' and his newest album 'Hope on the Street's where he goes back to his root's as Hip Hop Street Dancer where he was the youngest member of the Street Dance Crew call 'Nureon'. He also was the first South Korean Artist to headline Lollapalooza Chicago and he holds the record for the history of Lollapalooza as the the biggests attendence eg over 100, 000 people watched him live in person while the rest of watched in real time all over the world via the live link. So yeah you can see his solo performance's both at the MAMA 2022 Award Show and as the headline act at Lollapalooza. Chicago.

Jhope is fire

All 7 members are so supportive of each other... you'll find some of them doing cameos in each other's MVs... (Tae (V) is in this one... standing by the photocopier in the background... ) Army support every member, either solo or together.... Like many comments have said, all the members enlisted into the military - the eldest, Jin was discharged yesterday... so we're awaiting his solo album as he didn't have time to release it before he enlisted... All have released solo works ...

J-Hope is my sunshine! He's a great dancer, rapper, and singer, ARMY supports all the members solo endeavors (songs, albums, concerts, performances and appearances), and they all support each other. 💜

Army supports all members solo work. They all have different styles. All BTS has solo albums. Jhope was first Korean to headline lollapalooza you could check the whole concert on enjoy BTS more. I suggest Agust D trilogy starting with Deachwita, Heageum and Amygdala. RM Nuts one of my favorite off his last solo album and wildflower off his prior album.

ARMY loves and appreciates each member of BTS, even if we have our biases (the one we relate to most). I'm Tae biased and Yoongi is my "bias wrecker," but I adore j-hope and what he does for all his brothers. We don't like "solo stans" -- people who only support their favorite and crap on the others. BTS is a family and we support them all, the way they would each other. :)

Probably a foreign concept but ARMY supports BTS, as individuals or as a group. There are solo fans, meaning they only support one of the boys, but hey, they get the job done with the support. That’s all they’re good for.

All the members have their solo careers and ARMY supports all of them as solo artists as well! They can express themselves more personally and explore even different sounds. Working on their solo projects helps them with their group projects. BTS members are each other's biggest supporters and aren't jealous at all. They are a family and are proud of each other's work and success. SUGA even made a show - Suchwita, where he interviews celebrities over drinks and food - so his bandmates could have a safe place to promote their solo projects!

Another song off this album is Arson -- which ties in the theme of fire and burning up. (The band's faces are supposed to look burned)

YES MORE🔥 thanks! This whole album ‘Jack In The Box’ is absolutely brilliant! For more live instruments you should definitely watch his performance at lollapalooza, available on RU-vid for free. He has also recently released a new OTS album for his dance documentary Hope On The Street which is also must to check out!

I am not an Army, but this song is a masterpiece...

if you decide to check out his lollapalooza performance (HIGHLY recommend) it's been uploaded on youtube in 2 parts with subtitles. This whole album, jack in the box, was such a cool project. The grungy sound was a big contrast from the more upbeat funky stuff he was better known for before. Definitely recommend you check out all the other members' solo projects too. They all bring something different to the table

Thank you for reacting to bts but to really appreciate their music you have to turn on the captions to understand their lyrics. Their lyrics are what really set them apart from most artists.

Lollapalooza J Hope style. watch it!

Jhope loves his old school hip hop. Such a great track.

J-Hooooooope 💜

This is from his Jack In The Box album and his record breaking mainstage solo Lollapalooza concert 100,000+ chicago. This was this rap rock genre and a really spectacular live band and mainly in korean and the US audience did not thin in the final quarter. Check it out. Not only is each individual tastes, but also experiment as soloists.THEY ALL WENT SOLO.

I love all of bts solo projects. They are all so different. Jhope performed live at lollapalooza. It's a great watch if you ever have time.

BTS has always had solo songs and we’ve supported. I’m n general we strongly support but sadly there are “solo fans” that tend to be toxic to fans of the others or all 7. Jhope blew us away with this darker rock version. He’s amazingly creative. The live of this at Lolapalloza blew us away.

jhope set records & made history at Lollapolooza 2022 when he headlined to a crowd around 105,000 people, you can watch that set or parts of it, without worrying about copyright problems as long as if it is the whole set you break the reaction into too parts. But you can also find official videos of the live set that are broken up into a few songs at a time on their official channel, I think it is Bangtan Tv, where you can find it. Though I would suggest reacting to it with subtitles, because Jhope is a fantastic song writer and you are definitely missing sooo much with out them. I think on the channel, More BTS, you can find this set already broken into two parts and it has english subtitles. I think that is the name of the channel here on RU-vid. ( or something close to that) And all the members have done solo projects, and my guess is they will all continue to do so here and there, but Army supports all of them 100% They are all individuals, with their own personal artistic tastes, and things they want to create and share as artists, etc.... And we fully support them without bias. If you are Army, supporting and respecting all seven members will always be what is most important, over all. 💜💜💜 That is literally part of what it means to be Army. It is called being OT7! And that means pretty much that it will always be the original 7 members of BTS, first and foremost. Hope this info helps with some of your questions. Thank you guys for the reaction!!💜

J-Hope Lollapalooza performance was a highlight. I would recommend listening to "jack in the box" and " Hopeworld" prior to watching, just to get a feel for his songs before hearing them live.

💜🇧🇷JHope is incredible!!!!!!Real BTS Army suporte The Group and All Members individual projects. Some fans only support their bias . Thanks. Yes!!!!!! They all have their solos. Thanks

I'm living in Japan currently and I will say I have no fear about getting packages delivered to my house. I know it will still be there no matter how long I'm gone and if I miss a delivery I can have it scheduled to be redelivered the same day! I love it here!!!

What can I say, not only do I adore him as a person, I'm impressed and intrigued with what he does as a performer too 🐿💜

This was what made me ARMY. Well, not the music video, but his lollapalooza concert performance. I saw the video of him jumping on stage and that was the moment between before and after knowing bts 💜

Thank you for reacting 🫶🏾 Jhope is my bias in BTS but i do enjoy all memebers solo projects. Please check out more work from JHope. I recommend Arson, On the street, Nueron, equal sign and Airplane. Jhope live performance as a solo that really blew my mind is at LOLLAPALOOZA. It was historic and soooo good. Its just over 1 hour but we'll watch 🫶🏾💜 subscribing for more

All the seven members solo projects are very different. They have the freedom to experiment a lot with their sounds. It's always interesting for army listen to their projects.

To me, them putting out solo stuff is the best thing they could’ve done. Every release is so exciting and since they’re all so different we didn’t know what to expect. Like J-Hope once said, after this period of going solo their group music is just going to be so much better. Solo succes = BTS’ succes 🍀💜

Jholpe maravilhoso 💜💜💜🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

For this project (Jack In the Box) Jhope wanted to show a darker/edgier side of himself, and I love it. But, this is not indicative of who he is. He has many layers. He has two videos from his first solo mixtape "Daydream" and "Airplane" that show the sunnier side of our Hobi. Check those out if you wish.

Each of the seven are very different in their solo work, but if you listen to BTS music, all of these elements are there. All seven members participate in writing and producing BTS music, and they don’t stick to one genre. They do just about everything, but somehow, they make it all cohesive.

ALL BTS MEMBERS HAVE ALWAYS DONE SOLO MUSIC ARMY SUPPORTS GROUP AND SOLO MUSIC EQUALLY ALWAYS HAVE ALWAYS WILL.

We support all of their solo works, it adds more layers to their artistry and they often interconnect and reference each other works like easter eggs (that adds to the excitement too😂) 💜💜💜

please more of J-Hope talent!

Their solo albums have been so different from one another and from BTS, its really unexpected and all have been so good RM's new album is really amazing.

All seven members have released solo songs/albums while still with BTS and since all of them had to serve in their military (Jin JUST CAME HOME YESTERDAY), all seven also released solo albums in what they are calling their Chapter 2. Chapter 3 will start next June 2025 when all 7 are completed with their military service. Jungkook was only 15 when BTS debuted. They were all young and other than RM and SUGA, had not released any kind of music prior to BTS. They 100% took advantage of their forced hiatus to explore their own tastes and grow as individual musicians. Here's a list of the official solo releases since 2020. J-Hope - "Jack in the Box" (there is also a Hope edition that includes live recordings from Lollapalooza); "On the Street feat. J.Cole"; "Hope on the Street vol. 1" (a soundtrack and documentary of his love of dance" Jin - "The Astronaut" (he did this with Coldplay") He was the first to enlist so he only released a single. Hopefully we'll get a full album yet this year. RM - "Indigo"; "Right Place Wrong Person" Jimin - "Face"; "Closer Than This" (single) SUGA/Agust D - "D-Day" Jungkook - "GOLDEN"; "Never Let Go" (single) V - "Layover"; "Fri(end)s" (single)

Their solos are all very different. And yes all 7 have their own solos now. Keep going I think you will be quite surprised.

Listen to jhope's albums, Jack in the Box and Hope on the street. They are both so different but both call back to oldschool hiphop.

You should check out V's solo music on Tiny Desk Korea. It is totally different from all the others. They each have such different sounds and flavors to their music. I can't wait to hear what they come up with when they get back together.

Lets watch lollapalooza 2022 j-hope stage!!!

Glad you enjoyed Hobi - he's brilliant. BTW: RM (Leader and main rapper of BTS) just released a new album called, "Right Place, Wrong Person." It's incredible! In the past year, most members have released a solo album. Each one has achieved Billboard rankings - all excellent. Really GREAT. Search under: RM, Agust-D, J-Hope, V, Jimin and Jungkook. You can't go wrong with any of these solos. World class - but each member is very unique and have their own artistry. Rabbit-Hole = Avalanche! So true.!

His Lollapalooza concert is amazing. It’s posted in BangtanTV. The new album of RM (Right Place, Wrong Person) is a gem of alternative rap and it’s on the list of best albums of this year made by the Rolling Stones magazine and his last year album is Indigo that is more melodic rap and also praised by music critics. JungKook has his album Golden, that is pure pop and a super hit, V has the album Layover that is R&B jazzy with great instrumentals, Jimin has the album Face that is alternative pop and Suga has 3 albums, his latest is D-Day and is rap and pop rap.

We will support them no matter what.

J-hope is the first K-Soloist to enter in Top 10 of Spotify Artist Chart , also the First K-soloist to debut an album (Jack in the box) with over 60M+ streams. Jhope is the First Korean/Kpop Soloist to have 3 albums surpassing 500 Million streams on Spotif.

Hi guys! Welcome! If you are lost, then let us know! Jhope is our SUNSHINE! The most positive person with a smile that never ends. JHOOOOOPE! He is a part of our rapline. Enjoy! HOBI is his nickname and he gives us hope! I do suggest subtitles. Lyrics are everything for each member. I know you are lyricists and will appreciate these artists. We as ARMY are so proud of each of their success and we want the world for them. I do also recommend lollapalooza! It is known as Hobipalozza to us. Our ARMY fam also mentioned his triphop. These men create works of art regardless of their genre and they escape to every type. ENJOY! Fighting! BORAHAE!💜 The box is PANDORA box.

He was the performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago in July 2022 doing his whole solo album with a live band who were really good !! You will like it M sure!

His latest album, where this song is from, is called Jack in the Box and is a predominantly hip-hop boom bass rock album. The live instrumentation of it at his lollapalooza performance (on youtube ) is VERY good

Lollapalooza biggest audience 🎉

This will blow your mind 💥😜 BTS forever 💜♾️💟💜 JHope is 🔥💜 Real Army support all BTS members 💪💜

Thank you so much for reacting to JHope! JHope at lollapalooza is awesome. Subscribed

BTS Suga aka Agust D - Daechwita MV is a must watch. Each member has solo work and all are very different from one another, and their albums are amazing. Jin hasn't done an album yet, but he has a couple of singles out. They took a break to work on solo projects before entering the military. They will reunight in 2025 as a team again.

They are all so talented & diverse you will definitely be pleased with all their work as BTS or as solo artists

Yes they all have solo albums and 💯 supported by members and fans

""Arson" version Rock ✌

💜💜💜

I suggest watching some of his lollapalooza performances

Hey guys! Great pick. 😁 Yeah, to answer your question ARMY supports all the members of BTS who also promote each other's solo projects. I'm biased towards j-hope among the members. A lot of people were surprised when this was released because j-hope is known as the bright and sunny guy, but to me it was a natural progression and expression of his full personality. Another solo song by a BTS member you might like is "Snooze" by AGUST D featuring Woosung from The Rose.

Punk Rap 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻I love watching people's reaction to this video. Doing solo work whilst in a band is more standard practice in Korea. So, it's not issue. I actually think its brilliant, keeps the creativity alive and probably helps keep the group together. Check out his Arson mv. And his performance at Lollapalooza is outstanding!!! Total rock star and I love that people weren't prepared for him. He killed it. Stole the show. 😘💜🫰🏻🫶🏻

I would recommend you check out his Lollapalooza performance at some point

Can you react to Lollapalooza performance by J-HOPE please 😊

Any cool live stuff that j-hope's done? Pretty much all the live stuff that j-hope's done. He commands the stage. But please do yourself a favor and watch his Lollapalooza performance. I was there. j-hope knocked it out of the park.

Check out his Coachella performance. Epic!

💜 TODOS , TIENEN SUS TRABAJOS EN SOLITARIO !

TODO EL CATÁLOGO DE BTS 💜 ES VALIOSO ! ! 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑

Im excited to watch yall react the solo stuff!

All of them did solo work during the "hiatus." Everyone has his own style and is open to experiencing new styles 😊 I recommend you to watch Tiny Desk Korea with V; Times Square JK's live performance; Like Crazy English version, the Bossa Nova version at Lee Mujin show; The Astronaut by Jin at Coldplay concert in Argentina to have a bit of a taste of the vocal line. I don't know if you watched Suga, aka Agust D. If not, try Daewchita. I'm not saying those are their best songs, but are excellent and a good starting point 😊

I think you guys got the wrong idea from last fiasco with captions on the UGH!! performance. Official music videos *always* have correct captions. But captions on live performances completely depend on the channels. If the owner of the channel manually put captions, you will have correct translation. But if they didn't, you will see words "English (auto-generated)" and this is RU-vid captions that never correct. It's not that hard. If you still can't differentiate good captions from auto-generated, you should put them on regardless and if you see that captions are complete gibberish, just turn them off. ARMYs get really irritated by turned off captions in BTS' MVs, because the message is so important. For example this song is about j-hope's journey as an artist and as a person and how he is always wants more and it's not about money and awards, but about art that makes him breathe. Also, as everyone said already, BTS always did solo work alongside with BTS work and we always support all of them equally.

great

Please react to More live at Lollapalooza!!! It is incredible

Arson is also super amazing

They make their own beats

Fun side note... at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="438">7:18</a> in your video, the guy in the short-sleeved shirt in the far back is V from BTS. He dropped by to visit during the filming and J-hope put him in the MV. :P

J-Hope and Agust-D (Suga) are my 2 favorite members and I love their solo work, from J-Hope I recommend Arson, it is my favorite song of his along with this one that you have reacted to, and from Suga I recommend his trilogy: Daechwita (this is my favorite) / Haegeum / Amygdala. Thank you for your reaction, greetings!

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

airplane pt 2 is another good song that is a little different. love this solo from J Hope!

Thank you for the reaction! What's next?^^

Te recomiendo Jhope en lollapalooza en vivo

So BTS didn't "go solo" as we are used to the term being used in the west. Since the beginning all the members have done solo projects and endeavors while still doing group activities. From solo mixtapes from the rappers, to solo songs from the singers. One of the members has even done some acting. and now all members have solo albums (which happened due to all the members having to do mandatory military service) all except jin because he was the first to be enlisted and wasn't able to do an album before that time. However, that doesn't mean that the albums wouldn't have happened if they didn't have to serve, they just probably would have cone out more sporadically.... Who knows 🤷🏾‍♀️ But since they've always done solo work no one was surprised. And all ARMY supported all members solo work, the same as BTS themselves supported each other. They go to each others solo MV shootings and each others solo concerts&performances. One of the members (V) was actually in the MV you just watched as a little Cameo

I knew you would love this! So do I. BTS run next
