Is “Hope World 2” Coming Soon? Here’s What BTS’s J-Hope Says
ARMYs have been waiting on BTS J-Hope‘s second mixtape for a while, and it sounds like it may be coming sooner than we expected!
J-Hope released Hope World, his first mixtape, in 2018. To say this mixtape was incredible is an understatement!
J-Hope’s second mixtape is highly anticipated because of how great his first mixtape was. Understandably, fans have been eager to hear more of J-Hope’s music, and it seems like our wait may be coming to an end soon!
In the 2022 Season’s Greetings, J-Hope hinted that his new music would be coming soon. His first goal for the new year was listed as “#J-Hope’s_newmusic.”
He also posted an Instagram story of himself in the studio.
In his interview with GQ, J-Hope revealed exactly what’s going on with his second mixtape. He revealed that he had been working on it, but he scrapped what he’d worked on so far and started over. He said he’s been working on the new mixtape, and he’s given himself a deadline.
I had some struggles recently. And I went through a slump too. I’d reached my limit, in a way. I kept wondering how I could get through it, but in the end, I decided to start over from scratch. So yes, I’m working on something completely new, with the desire to make something that is truly and uniquely mine, as quickly as I can. I’ve even given myself a deadline.

Although he’s working on making a mixtape that’s fully his own, J-Hope recognizes that his fanbase has grown exponentially since he released his first mixtape. He said, “I’m trying to create what I want while being aware of trends. Since my listener base has increased, I can’t completely ignore people’s opinions and do whatever I want, so I keep going back and forth.”
While J-Hope hasn’t specified a release date for his mixtape, the fact that he’s given himself a deadline means he’s working hard on his music so fans can hear it as soon as possible. From what he said, it sounds like we have some great music to look forward to that’ll be the perfect mix of J-Hope’s signature sounds and the current trends in music.
