J-Hope of 'BTS' will be the first member to kick off activities in 2025. He is set to embark on his first solo world tour called 'HOPE ON THE STAGE,' starting in Seoul at the KSPO Dome in Songpa-gu from February 28 to March 2. He will tour North America and Asia, meeting ARMYs in 15 cities, including Brooklyn, Chicago, Mexico City, Manila, Saitama, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Macau, Taipei, and Osaka, performing a total of 31 shows.
The tour, 'HOPE ON THE STAGE,' is J-Hope's first solo world tour. The name signifies 'J-Hope on stage,' and also expresses 'hope' through performances. He will perform live tracks from his special album 'HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1' for the first time, songs rooted in his origins.
On the 5th, J-Hope shared a New Year's greeting on Weverse, expressing his wish for everyone to flourish beautifully in 2025, saying, "I sincerely support your first steps into the new year more than anyone." He continued, "This year seems to be very important for me too," expressing his ambition saying, "I will show you many things."
J-Hope released his first solo album 'Jack In The Box' in July 2022, followed by 'HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1' last March. He focused on street dance, his roots, showcasing dance-themed music, documentaries, and pop-ups. J-Hope directly planned the promotion, expanding his domain as a creator.
Meanwhile, BTS is set to complete their military service by June. Jungkook recently stated, "This is the year of our discharge and the year we meet again," hinting at a possible group reunion.
