From being a K-Pop trainee to the biggest K-Pop boy group BTS and his soloist era, J-Hope continues to make history. In this year’s Lollapalooza, a 4-day annual music festival in Chicago, Illinois in the U.S.
J-Hope became the first South Korean artist to become the headliner and performed on the main stage of the festival. He’s part along with other big artists in the lineup such as Green Day, J.Cole, Dua Lipa, Metallica, Charli XCX, and more.
Moreover, J-Hope performed on the last day, July 31 of the Lollapalooza’s first weekend. The festival is certainly sold-out and is full mostly of BTS Army fans.
