J-Hope’s solo outings: Jack in the Box, Hope World, documentary and more
J-Hope was the first member of BTS to release a solo project right after the announcement of their hiatus.

It even made it to the top 10 of Rolling Stones’ best albums of 2022 list, bagging the 9th spot. The 10-track concept album offered great musical offerings like Arson and MORE, which made it to top spots across global music charts.
Following the album was J-Hope’s highly anticipated documentary, J-Hope in the Box, which debuted on Disney+ in 2023. The documentary encapsulates behind-the-scenes moments of the artist’s solo album, revealing the creative challenges he faced while prepping for the project. Viewers got a sneak peek into his star-studded private listening party in South Korea, his appearance at Lollapalooza as the first Korean headliner in history and more.

Apart from these recent outings, J-Hope’s 2018 debut mixtape Hope World also tasted immense success. With brilliant singles like Daydream and Airplane, the mixtape touched peak positions on the World Digital Songs Chart, Billboard 200, Emerging Artists Chart and more.
In addition to all the aforementioned offerings, J-Hope has delivered hit tracks in collaboration with artists like Crush, J. Cole, Becky G and more.
It’s safe to say that J-Hope has carved a niche for himself, away from BTS’ brand power.
The K-pop star’s brand endorsement deals
From Jimin becoming the face of Tiffany & Co. to Suga headlining Valentino’s campaigns, the Bangtan boys are on a roll with their solo brand deals. J-Hope too joined the luxury ambassadorship bandwagon with his appointment as Louis Vuitton’s house ambassador.

While announcing the collaboration, Louis Vuitton hailed the artist for “pushing artistic boundaries and inspiring international audiences.” The J-Hope x Louis Vuitton crossover will surely bring forth many interesting campaigns that’ll be a treat for fashion aficionados.
