BTS member J-Hope is releasing a new album, Hope on the Street Vol. 1, BigHit Music announced to press and to ARMY on Sunday (Feb. 18).
Hope on the Street Vol. 1 is described in the announcement as “a special album” containing six tracks.
The new music collection is set to arrive alongside a six-part docuseries, Hope on the Street, which will “trail J-Hope’s dance journey” as he explores and meets street dancers throughout the cities of Osaka, Paris, New York, Seoul and Gwangju.
Both will “dive into the theme of dance,” a press release says, “the core of J-Hope’s artistic roots and identity.”
J-Hope previously mentioned the project this past July, during an appearance on fellow BTS member Suga‘s SUCHWITA show.
The first episode of the J-Hope’s docuseries will be released on Prime Video on March 27, with new episodes coming every Thursday and Friday.
The Hope on the Street Vol. 1 album will be available on March 29 at 1 p.m. KST. Fans should mark their calendars for a preorder that is scheduled for Feb. 19.
The project follows J-Hope’s 2022 solo album, Jack in the Box, which peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. A newly expanded HOPE Edition of the album was released in August 2023. It features the original album tracks, along with three live recordings from J-Hope’s history-making performance at Lollapalooza in 2022 in Chicago, plus two instrumental tracks.
J-Hope is currently completing his mandatory 18-month military service, which began in April 2023.
