Finally, a dream became a reality for J-Hope when, ahead of his enlistment, he released the single “on the street,” featuring his longtime idol.
… J-Hope wrote the track to share his candid feelings toward his fans. The title ‘on the street’ refers to J-Hope’s roots—street dance—from which his dream to become an artist began, and the path the artist and fans will continue to walk together.
We hope that J-Hope’s ‘on the street’ serves as a meaningful gift to everyone who supports the artist. Please look forward to J-Hope’s new song!

It appears that during that time, the two built a friendship, as J. Cole gave a shoutout in his new song.
American rapper Tee Grizzley just dropped “Blow for Blow,” featuring J. Cole. J. Cole’s verse especially had ARMYs doing a double-take.
J. Cole rapped, ” I stay hot, doin’ numbers like K-Pop BTS in the flesh while they flop.” This instantly caught ARMYs’ attention.
