Headliner j-hope performs on stage during day two of Lollapalooza Berlin on July 13, 2025 in Berlin, Germany.

J-Hope gave fans a peek at his upcoming solo concert movie, Hope on the Stage the Movie, on Wednesday with a clip of him performing ‘Killin’ It Girl‘ live onstage in South Korea.

The short video features the shirtless singer sporting a glittering jacket and jeans, while dancing to the track (which features a guest verse from Memphis rapper GloRilla) surrounded by backup dancers. Produced by Cirkut, Inverness, and Blake Slatkin, the song dropped in June following his collab “LV Bag” with Don Toliver, Speedy, and Pharrell; ‘Sweet Dreams’ with Miguel; and ‘Mona Lisa.’ The new music arrived after J-Hope completed his mandatory military service in South Korea in October 2024.

His soon-to-be-released concert film chronicles the two-night finale of his Hope on the Stage Tour at Goyang Stadium and will arrive in theaters worldwide on Nov. 12 and Nov. 15. The movie will also includebehind-the-scenes footage, tracks from J-Hope’s solo albums, special performances alongside his fellow BTSmembers, Jin and Jung Kook, and more.

Earlier this summer, BTS confirmed plans to officially return in 2026. In March 2022, the group announced an extended hiatus, which gave time for V, Suga, Jin, Jungkook, RM, Jimin, and J-Hope to complete their mandatory military service in South Korea and pursue solo endeavors as musicians.

Following J-Hope’s discharge, he told Rolling Stone that the time away was “invaluable.” He said, “The thoughts I had during those times have become an inseparable part of me, nurturing and shaping who I am today. Ultimately, they have influenced the stories I tell, the music I aspire to create.”
