[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Fans of J-Hope (real name Jung Hoseok), a member of the world-renowned idol group BTS, carried out a good deed in celebration of his upcoming birthday (February 18).


On the 16th, according to Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (District Mayor Moon In), J-Hope’s fan accounts ‘HopeOnTheWorld’ and ‘ChoiAedol J-Hope Community’ donated 55 microfiber blankets (worth approximately 2.75 million KRW) in J-Hope’s name.


This donation marks the third consecutive year following 128 bags of rice (1,280 kg) in 2019 and 1,640 KF94 health masks in 2020.


J-Hope’s fans stated, “We wanted to join in the good influence J-Hope spreads through his great music and donations, so we decided to deliver sponsorship items again this year.”


A Buk-gu official said, “We express our gratitude to J-Hope’s fans who shared their warmth again this year, and the donated blankets will be properly delivered so that vulnerable neighbors in need of care can have a warm winter.”


J-Hope, who is from Buk-gu, Gwangju, debuted in 2013 as a member of BTS and has been actively promoting, having received awards at the Billboard Music Awards and American Music Awards in the United States.



In particular, last November, BTS’s “Dynamite” was announced as a nominee for the Grammy Awards, the most prestigious in the pop music world, making BTS the first Korean artist to be nominated at all three major U.S. music award shows.
