Hmmm maybe I missed something?! 😅 can someone point out in the video where we said the boys were going on Hiatus? I think we only referred to the “announcement”. 🙏🏼💜 Appreciate everyone trying to be nice and helpful here. Love yourself.

The contract they mentioned on the festa dinner was actually a house/dorm contract, they celebrated their 9th anniversary there because they've been living there as a group for quite a long time and they were also clearing their remaining stuff since they're living separately now.

7:12 yes you guessed it right it's a dark evil theme song and also his album JACK/HOPE IN THE BOX inspired by Pandora's box (it's a Greek mythology where she curiously open a box and there was 7 demons, 6 flew away in the world and before 7 number could go she shut down the box and that demons name was HOPE, that stays inside us all the time. Funfact is J-HOPE named his name Hope inspired by Pandora's box) he was hinting us for long time.

I honestly can't wait for Lollapalooza Imagine all the armys being there, rocking out to Hobi.. it's gonna be wild I can see the headline being like "never seen before..."

J-Hope is the best always amaze me with everything he does he's amazing.... His songs always save me and take me out of my bleak world. Grateful to have him in my life and grateful for the day he came into my life...Although I always love and support him, I don't think I support him enough, he always deserves the best..... I wish I could do something that would make him happy or remind me of him but I can't do anything but love him... Hope he stays with us for a long time and we make happy memories..

I’m crying😂🤣😂🤣! Your faces when he switched to rock! Priceless! BTW - Hobi is officially my new bias! Sorry Yoongi 🥰💜

Hobi Hobi Hobi Hobi Crazy voice So cool, so unique My bias Hobi

( I just read some comments and realised that some of you got it wrong , the intention of this comment was just to sum up what all information we got in the festa dinner video of bts nothing else, when i listened to both of their conversation when the bighit logo appeared that's when i thought they might have some confusion abt that, so i just wrote down everything that was provided to us , just genuinely wanted to help.) 1) first of all they are not on hiatus ( yes it was a translation mistake, hybe cleared it themselves). 2) they are only taking a brk from group activities, but they will continue the run bts show. 3) their contract is still up as a group . 4) once all of their solo albhums are out , they are back again to group activities. 5) they are doing so that they can take a proper rest/break and grow individually as an artist. 6) the festa dinner was emotional because they were afraid that they might disappoint us, as there will be no group albhums for a while. 7) to sum up this has nothing to do with the contract , still bts under bighit.

hobi is so charismatic..plus his voice is one of a kind💎💜

ROCKIN' HOBI BABY!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💯

Yes he is going to get the Lollapalooza filled and banging and I cannot wait to see this song played live! Love the dark raw and more human sized of Hobi. 🖤🖤🖤

I'm loving the beat of this song and I love the drums and guitars and this side of our sunshine is wrecking me badly. This is a different side of hobi I thought I'd never see also I love the MV aswell and I love how his voice sounds as well as how rocky this sounds and I'm also loving this néw look on him aswell and I love how he raps. Basically words can't explain how I'm feeling right now about this song besides being bias wrecked. Hobi has set the bar so damn high for me now, Bangtan chapter 2 is already killing me now. He isnt Hobi anymore he is Hoseok

Hobi 🧘🏻‍♀️🤩🤩🤩

It seems you have misunderstood the Festa dinner. 1. BTS are NOT on hiatus. The members themselves & Big Hit have cleared this up themselves. They will be doing solo activities ALONGSIDE group activities. For example, Run BTS is continuing and we have an OT7 concert in Busan this October. The difference is that the music focus has just shifted from OT7 albums to solo albums so each member can grow individually as an artist and then come back together to make a group album. Other than that, things are still pretty much the same. They were originally supposed to do this after Map of the Soul: 7, but because of the pandemic they decided to cheer us up with Dynamite, Be, Butter, and PTD instead. 2. The contract regarding their careers as musicians remains the same. It has not changed at all. So yes, they are all still under Big Hit Music with the parent company being Hybe. 3. The contract BTS discussed in the Festa dinner is separate from their music--that was just a lease for their apartment where they all lived together. The lease is up and now they all live separately (though if you keep up with their social media, you'll realize they actually have had their own places since 2020. ) Glad you enjoyed J-hope's 'More'! His full length album 'Jack in the Box' is releasing next Friday and is available for pre-order now. He will also be performing his album at Lollapallooza at the end of July! Also, did you notice Taehyung's cameo in the 'More' music video? He's hard to miss, such a cutie.

10:52 Tae did a cameo in this scene. You can see him in the back wearing a navy blue pants, vest and a striped shirt by the desk

I am so proud of Jung hoseok. This song is a killer!!! I love it so much. Also Tae was in the office scene.

JHOPE JACK IN THE BOX 🤟👏👏🔥🔥

Our SUN became a ECLIPSE...I loved it!!! Thanks for your reaction...XX from Brazil

Their contract that they mentioned had nothing to do with their music artist contract with HYBE it was regarding their condo that they had together and stayed in as a group which was ending. That’s why In the Festa 2022 they mentioned they were packing up everything and moving out because they already had their own individual places that they bought and lived in as well but as Idols you normally have dorms that everyone is in as you probably already know. So, them having a place together made no sense to have. I’m sure when they comeback together they will stay in their individual housing still but they said being apart will make them closer as they have their own individual spaces where members can go visit and express themselves in their own spaces but I hope this clears up the misunderstanding 🥰 Yes, they are all still under HYBE💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Some people don't seem to understand the definition of Hiatus it literally means a pause/break in activity that is what they are doing but people misinterpreted that as disbanding for some reason they still have a contract with BH until 2027 the contract they spoke about during the dinner was their dorm and them moving out of there

Hobi is so creative, his album is so creative. He outdid himself. It's so good and unique

There's a making of video already. Very interesting, with V making a surprise cameo in the video. Try to find Taehyung... 😀😀😀💜

The MV Shoot Sketch is already out and it's on Bangtan TV's KZfaq channel. It's great!!! Fun fact: this song was written by J-Hope and Ivan Jackson. Ivan Jackson is part of a duo called Brasstracks who also produced the track. Brasstracks are an American R&B-hip hop production duo based in Alphabet City, Manhattan, New York, composed of Ivan Jackson and Conor Rayne. They won two Grammy Awards for their work on Chance the Rapper's single "No Problem"...." *Wikipedia* It is rumored that at least one of the duo is one of the band members in J-hope's "MORE".

Loving J-Hopes new song love your reactions to it did you see V’s cameo in it 💜💜💜🥰

When Pandora opened the box, all the evils flew out except for Hope. Evil Hope. Jack is out of the box, the character to the left with the jester hat. The second track on the album is called Pandora's Box. I'm way older it reminds me of 80's punk and Hip Hop, like Beastie Boys and Folk Implosion, even Iggy Pop. I LOVE it!!!!! I am a punk girl at heart. I can't wait for more!!!!! 😘💜🖤🤘🏻

Hobi is on fire 🔥 🔥 🔥 💜

Did anyone see V's cameo in the part after "inhale inhale exhale exhale"? He's wearing a blue striped sleeves leaning on a desk. Watch the MV making. It's cool! #BTSxARMY

V made a guest appearance in Hobi's "more" MV. They just released a behind the scene the making of his MV

He rocked it 💜🔥

When this came out me and my sister lost our shit. Cause we weren't expecting this from Hobi. There was a making on the More MV that was posted yesterday that might help. Also Tae made a cameo in the MV and Twitter Army's found this out the day after the MV dropped, and knew it was Tae because of his feet. Lmao we're weird but I love it! Love you all 💜

Yess Jack In The Box n my new name is JACK. The old school rap with rock n roll amazing.

I love the song and proud of Jhope!

Their house contract. They lived together in a bigger apartment once they got successful. The contract of their home. NOT the contract with their label.

☠️🖤🖤 this is a new J-hope and I'm living for it 💜

Thanks. Love this. This is first from his album Jack in the box. Next is Arson (loose translation of hangul). Am so excited. He is headlining Lalapalooza ending too. First Korean to so. Its amazing. I knew J Hope could do it. This is the first proper solo album from BTS, no longer remix. After this I think its Suga then Jimin. I don't think there has been alt rock genre in BTS discography.

I like the songs so much

J-hope seems to pay homage to a few different genres here. Absolutely LOVE IT!! Good for him, he finally gets to perform in HIS element and he’s killin’ it!

Ha! Been waiting for your reaction to J-Hope's video! Love your Run BTS reaction video! 💜 Y'all are awesome!

💜💜🇧🇷💜JHoooope!!!!!!💜 I want MORE!!!!!!!!

Guys I thing you get some point wrongs : - BTS are not in hiatus, it was a wrong translation from Korean. - BTS are still a groupe, the only thing is that for a few years there would be no more new music as Bangtan They will be doing a concert this October in Busan as 7 They are still representing brands and will be doing event for them. Exemple Hyundai were the boys are expecting to attend the football word cup in Qatar in novembre or Formule E which they will attend in Seoul - the boys will still continue shooting their variety show RUN BTS - Bighit is a subdivision of Hybe so the boys are bighit artists under Hybe label - they signed a 7 years contract with BigHit back in 1019, so as a group they still are in contract until 2026 - We don’t know if they are signed as solo artist also or if they use the BTS contract for their solo work On Hybe website, J-hope new album is listed on BTS page - they talked about this period were they will be focusing on their solo stuff back in 2019, during the FESTA gathering. They show a book about their first chapter, they they said they will be a second book for chapter 2 and a third one « once we reunite ». All of this is nothing new for them, it was planned years ago

한국아미예요.잘보고있어요! 너무고마워요~~ 우리방탄좋아해줘서~😅💜

His new album is called “ Jack in the box”, I’m guessing he’s trying to put that theme in his music and videos, like this one. He’s wearing that jester black hat a couple times and drawing attention to the box at the beginning and end 🙂 📦 🤡. This rock/ punk/ rap style is so different, glad to see Jhope trying new things 🥰💜

Exactly too talent 💜💜💜💜

Ребята, я так ждала вашу реакцию. Я в полном восторге от этой песни, клипа, атмосферы, уже наверно 1000 раз переслушала. Думаю она никого не оставит равнодушным. Hobi, просто невероятные вещи делает, я не перестаю им восхищаться👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💚💚💜

Yes! FAVORITE POWER RANGERS MOVIE!!

I've been waiting for your reactions. Did you guys find V on this MORE MV before watching the behind the scenes videos of this!? Yeah there's MORE! You guys should watch the behind scenes if you didn't watched it yet. In that video Hobi's explaining about this MV.

😂🤣😅😆🤣🤣🤣Your reaction at the chorus 1st time🤣😅🙌🙌🙌 Priceless!!!!

J hope's mv was crazyyyyyyy💜💜💜💜💜💜

Hybe is the parent to multiple companies, including BigHit, Be:Lift & Pledis which manage other K-pop acts like Enhyphen & Seventeen, etc. The BTS contracts are to 2024, this information was released during the time Hybe/BH went public for the IPO at the end of 2020. Easily searchable. 😌😌😌

You guys are appreciated 💛 J Hope has been and always was and is my bias! Haha 😄 I can't wait for his album. 💜

I absolutely loved your reaction 🥰 It’s why you are my favorite reactors. This song was amazing and the fact that Tae is hidden in there was even better 😌 This was a master piece

He’s amazing. His album is gonna be epic. I can’t wait. ❤️‍🔥👑 Like your reactions. Purple you GoodVibesGang. 💜🤟🏻🇹🇷

There is a making of this MV video. That is awesome. With a V surprise. Watch office scene again.💜

THAT'S WHAT I WAS EXPECTING!! VERY GOOD

THEY ALWAYS HAD THE FREEDOM TO DO WHAT THEY WANT. like did yall forget agust d and rm? they released those while in bts. hobi is just showing another side of himself. they were free then and are free now. literally NOTHING has changed.

BTS will be doing a group concert in October 2022 in Busan , for Korea’s bid for the world expo 2030. As everyone said they have not broken up, they are just focusing on solo stuff for a while, but will be coming together for projects and Run BTS .There is a behind the scenes of this mv

I was waiting for this reaction all weekend!!!!

Old school i like it and the good thing is V 😊 his very supportive he even participate in this MV.🤗

LADIES AND GENTS, THAT'S MY BIAS

we miss u guys love ur reactions

Heeeeyyyy guuuyyssss!!! 💜💜💜💜 This Hobi song is the BBEEESSTTT!!!! Thank youuuu!!! 😁😁😁 And big hugs to you!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

This video/song is sick as hell! Absolutely freaking AMAZING!! Love it, love u HOBI. AWESOME 💚

They already have our the making of the mv P. S. Love this first single, pleasently surprised by the heavy rock and funny how this also fits JHope, if felt totally normal to see him in that esthetic. Isn't that true artistry when you can make Chicken noodles soup and More both look cool and organic..

There've been hints in various (older) interviews that add up to: 'Sunshine Hope' is one-dimensional. But 'sunshine' was what the group needed, so sunshine had to dominate. He's said at least a couple times, there's shadow in him too, and the shadow is growing. So this is him finally exploring that shadow side of himself, the part that's been on hold and locked up in order to be one with the group. Someone else- Sammycam- said, watching this, 'How many boxes does he have inside? How many are we going to get to see?' That, I think, is the big question. This little box is one. It will be fascinating to see the others opened and let loose! And maybe a bit eerie, too. We're not used to the idea of dark, serious, raw Hoseok. Still, we loved him in 'Tear', so... And Lolla has reported that they've sold out of Sunday tickets for the first time ever. ARMY will be there in force!

After reviewing the reactions and references, I am with the people who say the video and possibly the entire album will be based on the concept of Fight Club, especially the acid burns on the band members' faces the white vs black clothes, the entire set (in the movie, the actual fight club happens in the basement of an apartment complex much like in the MV), and of course, the office worker J-HOPE reminds me of Edward Norton's character in FC. Also, his genre is rap metal, which was the genre that bridged the gap between hip hop and metal in the 90s-2000s before the techno/EDM takeover.

J-hope é uma inspiração na minha vida de nunca desistir dos seus sonhos. Eu admiro muito ele, o hobi merece tudo de bom, ele sabe que pode contar as as army brasileiras. Eu amo ele❤❤❤🥰

YYYAAASSS!!! Loved your reaction!!!

Imagine someday all 7member head banging with this song on stage~❤

Just think what it’s going to be like when he performs this at Lalapalooza later this month .He’s going to rock that place!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Their is a behind the scenes video .

Ok, watching you guys head banging was priceless 🤘🏼

Me being a punk, rock, alternative girl really hopes, we'll get more of this genres by all of them

BTS' house/dorm was ending, they were having their last dinner at the house/dorm during the 9th Anniversary Dinner, RM even said their house contract was ending and they are on a break and you missed when both Jin and Suga say BTS is still a group, we are just doing solo projects for now.

👍🏽 Great resction. More🔥🔥🔥

I've been waiting for your reaction.

confused how yall still dont know whats happening 😂 bts are still a group. the contract that ended was ONLY for their dorm now they live in their own places. thats it. nothing about their contract with bighit. theyre still doing group activities like run bts just not group music. they all have albums coming out. theyre not on a hiatus at all.

YAAY! I was waiting for this reaction! 💜

Finally got to watch and I got confused with ppls comments on here I'm like are we all watching the same video here? 👀 Freaking Hobi killed it! I love this song n video so much!! I felt like I was watching a Linkin park vid or Korn or limp bizkit 😁 I'm so excited to hear the rest...I'm guessing next is Arson (that's probably what happened to the bands faces)

Спасибо за реакцию! Вас очень интересно смотреть и слушать, удачи!

Yes there is

🌺 Amazing reaction bts

Your reaction is so enjoyable to watch! It's entertaining to see your also almost identical genuine reaction.

Finally, been waiting for your reaction guys...thanks for the support always...

So no left and right reaction haha

They aren’t taking a break from group activities y’all. They are just taking a break from making music. They are having a concert in busan and run bts 😂

Yes there is an mv shooting sketch to this video that came out yesterday.

I love this!! My girls are so excited to see him at Lalapalooza in a few weeks!! Wish I was going!!! I'll be outside the venue listening for sure!

All Hallows Hobi...

the use of the grunge sound and vibe is very much present (using nirvana as an example because they are considered grunge, not heavy metal). long, open chords ── shouting, usually exasperated and filled with emotion. it's meant to be messy and edgy which is why it works so well and is so different for hobi. I personally love this aesthetic and the drawing of comparisons between Jack in the box and pandora's box in Greek mythology. it also shows a parallel between how jhope isn't always sunshine and rainbows. he's human. ot7 are very capable of being versatile artists, which is why this song blew me away. I'm a rock and metal head at heart so to have this is something I've hoped for.

love it💕💕💕

Run BTS etc

Boys. They have always been under big hit. Hybe is the big corporate parent. Before their solo works were just personal projects. In this chapter they are officially under big hit for the release and distribution of the individual albums

also have yall not seen hopeworld? this isnt his debut. he has a lot of solo music already

This mv is so amazing also tae is in the mv in one of the still frames he asked to be a special guest in the mv 10:53 he’s standing up leaning on one of the desks

I love this new HOBI, who I'm gonna call J-DOPE lol, he's gonna kill it at Lollapalooza 💜 they released the tracklist today... We're getting 10 tracks whoooo I can't wait💜 I'm sorry gentleman but NO nirvana this has more like a house of pain beastie boys RATM Korn kind of feel.. Check out the making of more shoot sketch

every day since MORE is up i was xaiting for your reaction ! happy to see you talking about. And i feel you for you thinking. HoseokistheNewRock ! Cant wait for Jack in the BOX reaction ! See you soon guys ! And where is your girlfriend Hmmmmm?

I LOVE YOUR GUY'S REACTION...I WAS ALSO BANGING MY HEAD... CANT WAY FOR FURTHER KDRAMA REACTIONS!!

V also in this video can u catch him😄😄😄

I freaking LOVE this!!! Hobi came through! Artistic range and originality is through the roof here. This screams Linkin Park and that whole era (Hemmorhage by Fuel anyone?), all the way through his stance and body movements. That’s exactly the way Chester and Mike moved while performing. Then you mix it with old school hip hop that suits Hobi’s flow so well. By FAR my fave solo after Singularity. Gosh, I am absolutely stoked to see what the rest of the boys come up with. I love seeing them spread their wings and show us their individuality. I agree with RM, this is exactly how you move forward as a group and stay fresh, relevant and, most importantly, true to your artistic self.

The flow and the swag The flow thoughhhhh

The wait is over 💜💜💜
