As the dance leader, j-hope led BTS’s performances with explosive energy for over two hours at Allegiant Stadium, successfully wrapping up the group’s four-night concert run in Las Vegas as part of the “BTS WORLD TOUR ARIRANG.” Despite going through an intense and packed performance schedule for several consecutive days, the idol still appeared on stage with energy that barely seemed diminished.
Not only did he give fans countless happy moments during the concert, but right after the show ended, j-hope continued warming ARMYs’ hearts with a casual livestream on Weverse while removing his makeup and resting. j-hope admitted that his body felt somewhat tired after the concert, but reαѕѕured fans that his mood was very good as he continuously smiled and carefully read each fan comment.

Even though he does not consider himself fluent in English, j-hope still tried his best to reply to fans’ comments in English on topics such as how he was feeling or what he had eaten recently in an incredibly adorable and sincere way. However, amid the cheerful atmosphere, an υиєχρє¢тє∂ moment occurred when j-hope read a comment from a viewer: “I think your English is better than Tae.”
What stood out most was his quick and thoughtful response. The rapper laughed “haha” before immediately saying: “I think it’s the same! Except for Namjoon, everyone is the same.” He then quickly moved on to another comment praising his English pronunciation: “Your English accent is amazing, really,” to which he replied: “For real? For sure? Oh my god thank you! My ARMY!”
Afterward, he also shared that in the future he would like to start a livestream where he could study English together with fans: “Later when I study English I will turn on the live and do it with all of you. What do you think?” When he later read another comment calling him “totally an αмєяι¢αn person,” the idol immediately realized the fan was teasing him and humorously responded: “I think you’re teasing me? You’re definitely teasing me.”
At the end of the conversation about the topic, j-hope honestly confessed: “Why is English so hard? How do I do this? Please teach me. I’ve been improving my listening lately. I put on English podcasts even if I don’t understand it. Speaking is a bit difficult.”
At this point, j-hope’s entire reaction to what many considered a rather “sensitive” comment earned endless praise from fans and netizens alike. Instead of going along with the comparison, he gently redirected the conversation and emphasized the reality that, aside from RM, all the members are at a similar level when it comes to foreign languages — soмєтнing everyone already knows and acknowledges. Not only that, but he also shifted the focus back onto himself, openly admitting that he is still learning. By adding humor and positivity, he made the discussion feel much lighter and more comfortable!
In addition, attentive fans also noticed that earlier during the livestream, j-hope υиєχρє¢тє∂ly mentioned Taehyung with special gratitude: “Taehyung played a huge role in this tour. He was hanging out with me so much during this tour. I’m so grateful to him.”

Over the years, there have been countless speculations and doubts surrounding the bond and friendships between the BTS members, but BTS has never been afraid to show the strong bond they share. This situation only deepened that impression even more. At the same time, j-hope once again demonstrated his incredibly high EQ, thoughtfulness, and quick sensitivity in public situations.
Meanwhile, many fans also criticized viewers who left careless comments during the livestream, pointing out that there are often rude fans who make inappropriate remarks like these. ARMYs called on fans to be more mindful and avoid making similar comments again in the future:
- Why tf are people comparing now? WHO ARE THESE IDIOTS?
- Hobi handled that comment with so much grace and intelligence. He protected Tae, stayed humble, and kept the mood light at the same time. His EQ is seriously incredible
- The way j-hope immediately included all the members instead of accepting the comparison says everything. BTS really respect and protect each other so naturally
- The way that fandom never fails to disappoint me ehhn. They can’t praise his English without bringing up Tae
- ARMYs commented hobi English is better than Tae some of them are really ungrateful
- They're not native speakers and all of them are still trying their best. There's no need to turn that into competition or mock it. Just let each member exist without unnecessary comparisons
- You can tell j-hope genuinely doesn’t want any member to be singled out or compared. His response was thoughtful, kind, and so emotionally mature
- The fact that he openly admitted he’s still learning instead of pretending to be perfect made me respect him even more. Hobi is humble, hardworking, and endlessly sincere
