BTS’ J-Hope has teased new music coming in March.
Shortly after announcing his 2025 ‘Hope on the Stage’ solo world tour, the 30-year-old K-pop star – whose real name is Jung Ho-seok – shared a video of his time in the recording studio in Los Angeles and teased the ‘Beginning of a New Dream’.

J-Hope recruited his BTS bandmate Jungkook, LE SSERAFIM’s Huh Yunjin, Bad Bunny and Nile Rodgers for the follow-up to his 2022 debut album ‘Jack in the Box’.
The six-track collection was accompanied by a six-part docuseries, which documented the South Korean star’s dance journey and saw him meet street dancers in Osaka, Paris, New York, Seoul and Gwangju.
J-Hope’s tour will kick off with three nights at Seoul’s KSPO Dome on February 28, March 1 and 2.
The run – which includes dates in North America and Asia – is currently due to conclude in Osaka, Japan, on June 1.

Meanwhile, the South Korean boy band – also comprising RM, 30, Suga, 31, Jin, 32, V, 29, Jimin, also 29, and 27-year-old Jungkook – plan to reunite in 2025.
