He’s your hope, and you’re his hope. Now, BTS fans are hoping this announcement from Big Hit Music is an April Fool’s Day joke. The K-pop group’s rapper, dancer, and resident sunshine, J-Hope, is officially enlisting in the South Korean military as an active duty soldier.

BTS's J-Hope will be enlisting in the Korean military soon, but he's leaving fans (temporarily) with a lot of hope for his music career.
On Feb. 26, Big Hit announced J-Hope's impending enlistment (all able-bodied Korean men between 18 and 28 must serve around two years in South Korea's military), and that same day, the entertainment company also revealed that he'd be leaving fans with a gift in the form of a new single. In a Weverse statement, it said the new single is titled "On the Street" and J-Hope wrote it "to share his candid feelings toward his fans."
The song's title will sound familiar to fans, as it calls back to J-Hope's roots in street dance, "from which his dream to become an artist began." The triple threat also released a series of videos under the moniker over the years, in which he would show off his freestyle dance moves,...

The track, titled “On the Street”, takes a trip down memory lane to J-Hope’s roots as a street dancer. The song title itself references the dance show “Hope On The Street”, created by the rapper in 2015, in which he would film himself performing several solo hip-hop dances, sometimes alongside guests.
The new track finds J-Hope feeling hopeful for the future and grateful for his fans. “For the path I’m on to become one of hope, I give my all,” he insists over a strummed guitar melody and the track’s infectious whistle motif.
