BTS’ J-Hope Unveils Heartwarming ‘Hope on the Street’ Docuseries Trailer: Watch

Although it’s been just under two years since J-Hope launched 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 unveiled the main trailer for his upcoming Hope on the Street docuseries, which will arrive on March 27, just two days before he is slated to drop his Hope on the Street, Vol. 1 LP (March 29).

“I started with dance and that dancing led to many other things,” J-Hope reflects in the “On the Street”-backed trailer. “I’m curious about it. What kind of dancing did I do and what are my roots? What is the future that I’m dreaming of?”

With the background music transitioning to BTS’ “Trivia 起: Just Dance,” the trailer finds J-Hope linking up with dancers and choreographers from around the world — including Osaka, Paris, New York City, Seoul and Gwangju — as he deepens his knowledge and feeds his passion for dance. “My heart is racing. It feels so new,” he gushes. “I’d like to learn again, not just about dance, but it could be about life. I think it was a new process of learning.”

Hope on the Street is directly tied to J-Hope’s forthcoming special album. Each episode of the docuseries is linked to a set of songs from the album through their narrative, sound and overall message. The first episode of Hope on the Street will premiere on Prime Video at 11 a.m. ET on March 27. The accompanying album — which includes main track “Neuron (with Gaeko and Yonmirae)” — will launch at midnight ET on March 29.

Hope on the Street Vol. 1 is the official follow-up to Jack in the Box, which topped World Albums, peaked at No. 4 on Top Rap Albums and reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200. That set featured the singles “Arson” and “More,” which climbed to No. 82 on the Billboard Hot 100. Last year, J-Hope put out a pair of singles: a collaboration with fellow BTS member Agust D (SUGA) titled “Huh?!” and the aforementioned “On the Street” (with J. Cole), which debuted and peaked at No. 60 on the Hot 100, marking J-Hope’s highest entry on the chart to date.
