(ANN/THE KOREA HERALD) – J-Hope of K-pop supergroup BTS will release two more solo singles this year, following his latest digital single, “Sweet Dreams,” last week.
The rapper-dancer shared the news during a live broadcast on the K-pop fan community platform Weverse on Tuesday.
“Interestingly, all three songs will have different styles,” he said. “While working on a new album, I wondered what kind of music you would enjoy, and the answer was simply ‘good music,'” he added.
J-Hope shared that the singles launched this year, along with those still to be released, are shaping the path of his musical journey and will likely influence his upcoming solo studio album.
The BTS star held a 12-hour live broadcast on Weverse on the eve of the release of “Sweet Dreams.” On the release day on Friday, he hosted an online and offline event titled “Sweet Dreamland,” where he interacted with fans.
Following this, he traveled to the United States, where he held a pop-up event at Genesis House in New York on March 9-10. At the event, he showcased flowers he personally selected and presented handwritten message cards for fans.
J-Hope also collaborated with the famous American bakery Magnolia Bakery to launch cupcakes and banana pudding inspired by the mood of his new song. He has also appeared on South Korean TV variety shows, including MBC’s “I Live Alone” and JTBC’s “Please Take Care of My Refrigerator.”
He will embark on a North American tour, which will include a stop at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, making him the first Korean solo artist to perform there. – Yonhap
