J-Hope of BTS makes a comeback to music broadcasts after 2 years, showcasing a 'reverse gift class' during the pre-recording.
J-Hope of BTS relayed a heartwarming story of incredible fan love as he took the stage at a music broadcast for the first time in about 2 years.
On the 17th, J-Hope interacted with fans at Mnet's 'M Countdown' pre-recording, marking a long-awaited face-to-face performance. Reviews of the pre-recording quickly spread across social media, conveying the warm atmosphere of the venue.
What particularly drew attention was J-Hope's thoughtful consideration for the fans. A fan noted, "Hobi prepared the entire studio as a waiting area. I heard he did this to ease the discomfort of waiting outside in the hot weather," sharing a touching moment along with photos from the venue. The released photos showed fans comfortably waiting inside the studio. Typically, pre-recordings require fans to wait outside for extended periods, but J-Hope unusually secured a separate space to reduce fans' fatigue.
In this regard, J-Hope directly mentioned, "It’s hot, so I prepared a space where you all can rest. I hope you’re satisfied," adding sincerity to his words.
Additionally, gifts with a thoughtful assortment, including a coffee truck, bagels, drinks, desserts, lip balm, perfume sets, and handwritten notes were delivered to fans, further enhancing the heartfelt experience. Fans responded on social media, saying, "This is truly a 'reverse gift,' " and "J-Hope's class is different," expressing enthusiasm, noting, "I’ve never seen anything like this in my 20 years of idol fandom."
Meanwhile, on the 13th, J-Hope debuted his new song "Killin’ It Girl" during the finale concert of his solo album activities, 'HOPE ON THE STAGE FINAL.' This hip-hop track captures J-Hope's unique sexy and free energy, garnering a strong response from fans.
J-Hope is expected to continue his full-scale comeback activities starting with 'M Countdown' on the 19th, making appearances across various music broadcast stages.
