Although it's only been two years since J-Hope's release Jack in the box, his debut studio album, and the BTS member is already gearing up for two massive new projects. On Wednesday (March 13), the “Chicken Noodle Soup” rapper revealed the main trailer for the upcoming Hope on the way documentaries, which will arrive on March 27, just two days before he is scheduled to leave Hope on the Street, Vol. 1 LP (March 29).
“I started with dancing, and that dancing led to a lot of other things,” J-Hope muses in the “On the Street”-supported trailer. “I'm curious about that. What kind of dance did I do and what are my roots? What is the future I dream of?'
With the background music switching to BTS's “Trivia 起: Just Dance,” the trailer finds J-Hope connecting with dancers and choreographers from all over the world – including Osaka, Paris, New York, Seoul and Gwangju – as he deepens his knowledge and feeds his passion for dance. “My heart is pounding. It feels so new,” she gushes. “I would like to learn again, not only about dance, but it could be about life. I think it was a new learning process.”
Hope on the way is directly linked to J-Hope's upcoming special album. Each episode of the documentary connects to a set of songs from the album through their narrative, sound and overall message. Its first episode Hope on the way will premiere on Prime Video at 11 a.m. ET on March 27. The accompanying album — which includes the lead track “Neuron (featuring Gaeko and Yonmirae)” — will be released at midnight ET on March 29.
Hope on the Street Vol. 1 is its official sequel Jack in the box, which topped World Albums, peaked at No. 4 on Top Rap Albums, and peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard 200. This set included the singles “Arson” and “More,” which peaked at No. 82 on Billboard Hot 100. Last year, J-Hope released a pair of singles: a collaboration with fellow BTS member Agust D (SUGA) titled “Huh?!” and the aforementioned “On the Street” (featuring J. Cole), which debuted at No. 60 on the Hot 100, marking J-Hope's highest entry on the chart to date.
