HOPE ON THE STREET (2024)
journey with j-hope
What a beautiful love letter to street dance, music, and life-long learning. I highly recommend this six episode docuseries to anyone who enjoys thoughtful storytelling, dance, music, and culture... Follow j-hope on his world wide journey from Seoul to Osaka, Paris, New York City, and his beloved hometown Gwangju to meet talented dancers who have spent decades
j-hope, my favorite artist, even wrote an outstanding new album, Hope on the Street Vol. 1 to accompany the Hope on the Street docuseries on Prime Video.
It's a joy to witness a living legend follow their dreams, step outside of the box, and continue to learn from others. Bravo j-hope.
Thank you j-hope. Thank you to the dancers Boogaloo Kin, Gucchon, Lock Woong, Henry "Link" McMillan, Yugson, and last but not least NEURON CREW (Daek2, Dxng Wxx, Mishka, Ad Bomb and more) and the whole production team for a well crafted documentary series.
j-hope IN THE BOX (2023)
You gotta see it for yourself. j-hope JAY Hobi Hoseok all in one documentary!
J-HOPE is an incredible artist and person. I love his music. He's the best performer I have ever seen live.
I highly recommend this well-made documentary to anyone who likes documentaries, music, behind the scenes content, or learning what makes a talented, passionate person tick. J-HOPE as a solo artist has been waiting years for the opportunity to finally come out of the box and he did it in the grandest fashion in true "j-hope" style. Even his most loyal fans were shocked and thrilled by his album Jack in the Box and his historic and legendary Lollapalooza performance. He really set the bar high.
Without giving too much away, I like that they showed him creating/writing his album in the Hope World studio. His interactions with his family, staff, members, dancers, and peers are so sweet.
I was at Lollapalooza aka Hobipalooza in person (insane, one of the best experiences of my life). The editors did a great job building up excitement and tension in the documentary which had me questioning... "Oh is everything going to turn out okay with the performance?" even though I know it did because I was there lol. Thank you j-hope, the creative team (the stage director seems so sweet), and everyone at Disney Plus for bringing this to a wider audience. I had been waiting to see j-hope perform his own music for more than four years and to see it captured in high quality Disney doc style is awesome. The sound quality of the several songs they show is great. It makes me think that he could release the "Live at Lollapalooza" version of his set as an album. Even if you know nothing about BTS or j-hope, you'll be entertained. Fyi, j-hope's music is beyond the "k-pop genre." Jack in the Box is more old school hip hop boom bap with some rock grunge r&b and more. I highly recommend you check out his music, music videos, and his entire Hobipalooza set available on yt. He genuinely appreciates his fans' support. I am always rooting for his success and look forward to his newest song "on the street."
I'll be re-watching this documentary often. This documentary and my Jack in the Box vinyl are very precious to me as a j-hope fan.
