According to the 2024 global rankings on HypeAuditor, J-Hope of BTS has claimed the number 1 spot as the most influential artist on Instagram in the Art/Artists category. This achievement is particularly remarkable as J-Hope spent a significant part of the year fulfilling his mandatory military service. He was only released after half of the year passed in June 2024.

The list also features other notable figures:

#2: Rashmika Mandanna from India

#3: King Bach (USA)

#4: Salman Khan (India)

#5: IU (South Korea)

J-Hope recently updated his Instagram bio to "WIP," meaning "Work In Progress." This change sparked curiosity among fans, making them wonder about his plans post-military service and what new projects he might be working on.

Additionally during his second Weverse life after being discharged from the military, he had fans thinking that he was possibly hinting at a solo world tour. When fans spammed his comments section with their demand for a tour, he considered them and said the words,

"You guys want a tour, right?"

This became another indicator for the fans to expect that something is cooking from J-Hope's side and they might be getting something soon. They eagerly await for the BTS member's activities to begin soon.
