J-Hope’S Solo Tour Ignites Hybe’S 85% Revenue Surge In North America – Fans Call Him The Ace Of K-Pop!

J-Hope Takes North America by Storm with ‘Hope on the Stage’

Hey, K-Pop lovers, have you heard the latest? BTS’ very own j-hope has been lighting up stages across North America with his solo tour, ‘Hope on the Stage,’ and the impact is nothing short of electric! According to a report by MTN News on July 28, 2025, HYBE’s revenue in the region skyrocketed to a staggering 133.25 billion KRW in Q1 2025 – that’s an 85.7% leap from last year.

What’s fueling this financial fire? Well, darling, it’s largely thanks to j-hope’s unstoppable charm and talent, alongside contributions from other artists under HYBE America. His tour swept through the U.S. and Mexico like a wildfire, proving that his star power shines just as bright solo as it does with BTS. Talk about a global heartthrob!

This isn’t just about numbers – it’s a testament to j-hope’s incredible influence post-military discharge. His ability to captivate audiences on his own is turning heads and filling arenas, solidifying HYBE’s stronghold in the Western market. Can we get a round of applause for this man?

Sold-Out Shows and Fan Frenzy: J-Hope’s Unmatched Draw

Let’s talk specifics, shall we? J-Hope’s U.S. leg of the tour featured 12 sold-out concerts in major cities like Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Oakland, and Mexico City. We’re talking about 178,000 fans flocking to see him perform hits from ‘Jack in the Box’ and ‘Hope on the Street Vol.1’ – now that’s what I call devotion!

What’s truly impressive, as MTN pointed out, is the unwavering demand in every single city. It’s not just the BTS ARMY showing up – j-hope has carved out a solo fanbase that’s just as passionate. His performances are a masterclass in showmanship, leaving everyone in awe of his energy and charisma.
