On June 13, j-hope released his solo song “Killin It Girl” as part of FESTA 2025 but also marked his solo journey. The new song quickly attracted the attention of au∂ιєnces around the world with its mature charm and vibrant rhythm for the summer.

In particular, with the release of this solo song, the BTS superstar returned to the weekly music stage. Big Hit has confirmed that j-hope will perform the new song on iconic music shows, which are closely αѕѕociated with Kpop idols, such as Mnet Mcountdown or Music Bank.

Most music shows are pre-recorded stages and j-hope is no exception. His pre-recording for Mcountdown was held on June 17 with the attendance of approximately 1,000 fans (no waiting list).

Tickets for the show were randomly distributed after filtering the registration list of those who had membership and purchased 'Charm of HOPE' (Set) from the Weverse store according to Big Hit Music's regulations.

After winning the prize, the process of entering the studio and participating in the recording was not simple. It included having to be present from at least 11am (there were fans who came even earlier to line up) until 3pm for roll call while the recording time was around 4:15pm.

Not to mention that most fans had to stand for several hours during recording session and scream their lungs out as the director's request to cheer for the artists, it was undeniable that many fans were tired and exhausted after that. 

Knowing the hard work of the fans, j-hope gave ARMYs "special pampering". According to some fans, j-hope rented a large studio with cool air conditioning so that fans could rest and wait until the recording time while Seoul's weather was above 30 degrees Celsius.

Not only that, fans were served cool drinks and snacks such as bread, cakes, squirrel-shaped cookies and chestnuts while waiting. This was also the first time that fans received such great favor when cheering on a Kpop artist recording in advance on a music show.

Witnessing j-hope's care for ARMYs, Kpop fans couldn't help but feel jealous because it seemed like this was the first time in history that an artist had done so. Most Kpop idols would give some small gifts to fans after the recording ended, but ARMYs not only received gifts but were also taken care of thoughtfully even before recording.

Netizens can't help but admire the great love that j-hope has for his fans: "It's my first time seeing an idol doing this, but j-hope's actually different, a world clαѕѕ", "I've seen Jungkook's perfume bottles with gold flakes and now j-hope's big air-conditioned studio, ARMYs are so lucky", "It's so hot outside in Seoul, he cares about the health of his fans, it's amazing", If you've ever attended the pre-recording of Mcountdown, you'll know how tiring it is to wait, he treats his fans so well", "From an idol who was despised in Mnet, j-hope came back and spent a lot of money to make others jealous of his fans. Antifans should accept their defeat in front of BTS".

Meanwhile, ARMYs all over the world are proud of the deep relationship between fandom and idol:
