J-Hope of the group BTS expressed his affection for 'Hope on the Street VOL.1'.

On the 2nd at 5 PM, J-Hope held the 'J-Hope Tour 'HOPE ON THE STAGE' in SEOUL' at KSPO DOME in Songpa-gu, Seoul. During this three-day performance, which took place from the 28th of last month, J-Hope attracted a total of 37,500 audience members.

On this day, J-Hope showcased a stunning performance as the main dancer while singing 'On the Street', 'Lock/Unlock', 'I Don't Know', and 'I Wonder' from his special album 'Hope on the Street VOL.1'.

"I thought about how many artists can present a stage in this genre of street dance," he began, "It's a stage filled with sincerity. I've been dancing street dance since I was young, and I captured that root in an authentic album, creating a stage with the songs included in the album. So, it's a stage that I have a lot of affection and attachment to."

He added, "Seeing that people enjoy a stage filled with sincerity makes me happier than anything else. I think the audience gives me the motivation to create such stages."

Meanwhile, 'HOPE ON THE STAGE' is J-Hope's first solo world tour after 12 years since his debut. Starting with the Seoul performance, J-Hope will hold a total of 31 performances in 15 cities, including Brooklyn, Chicago, Mexico City, Los Angeles in North America, as well as Manila, Saitama, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Taipei, and Osaka.
