j-hope’s LV Bag makes waves globally as he gears up for a solo tour and new album

LV Bag marks j-hope’s first release since his March 2024 EP, Hope On the Street Vol. 1, which featured collaborations with Jungkook (I Wonder), Benny Blanco and Nile Rodgers (Lock/Unlock), and Le Sserafim’s Huh Yunjin (I Don’t Know).

The track LV Bag, produced by Pharrell Williams and Mathaius Young, debuted on February 21, 2025, as j-hope’s first music release following his military discharge in October 2024.

Upon release, LV Bag quickly climbed the Worldwide and European iTunes Song Charts.

It secured #1 in 50 countries, including the United States, Argentina, Brazil, France, India, and Thailand. It also entered the Top 5 on US iTunes, reflecting strong international interest.

In South Korea, the track debuted at #24 on Bugs and #27 on the MelOn Hot 100 Real-Time chart, according to World Music Awards. Additionally, it has surpassed 50,000 searches on Shazam as more listeners discover the song.

Pharrell first teased LV Bag in January 2025 at the Louis Vuitton FW25 show in Paris, where he and Nigo played the track for front-row guests like j-hope, Travis Scott, and Bradley Cooper.

The event also featured tracks like The Weeknd and Playboi Carti’s Timeless, SEVENTEEN’s unreleased Bad Influence, and Final Fantasy VII’s One-Winged Angel.

LV Bag's momentum continued post-release, earning a spot on Spotify’s RapCaviar, the platform’s biggest hip-hop playlist.

Meanwhile, j-hope is preparing for his first solo world tour, HOPE ON THE STAGE, kicking off with three concerts at Seoul’s KSPO Dome on February 28, March 1, and March 2. The tour will take him to major cities across the United States, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

It includes stops at venues like New York’s Barclays Center, Chicago’s Allstate Arena, and arenas in Singapore, Jakarta, and Bangkok. The final show is set for June 1, 2025, in Osaka, Japan.

In addition to the tour, j-hope is set to release a new solo album, Beginning of a New Dream, in March 2025. He first hinted at the project through a YouTube video uploaded to BANGTANTV, documenting his creative process in Los Angeles.

A later Instagram post with the caption "2025.03." further fueled anticipation.

Beyond music, j-hope will appear on upcoming variety shows including Fairy Jaehyung and JTBC’s Please Take Care of My Refrigerator, where he is set to guest on March 2.
