BTS' j-hope faced several alleged fan misconduct incidents during the HOPE ON THE STAGE world tour
During the 17th of May, 2025, BTS' j-hope extended his solo HOPE ON THE STAGE tour in Macau at Galaxy Arena. During the concert, he changed the usual layout of his performance for Equal Sign. Instead of heading toward the front rows as seen at earlier venues, the Chicken Noodle Soup singer walked up to the seated area to greet fans there.
A video later emerged showing him reaching out to a supporter. Another individual beside them also grabbed his hand. The brief moment did not affect the event, and the artist moved forward with his performance as planned.
The concert came amid ongoing reports of fans crossing physical limits during the tour. Several videos from earlier cities have surfaced, showing similar instances. During recent tour stops, j-hope faced repeated unwanted physical contact from fans.
In Jakarta on May 3, admirers gripped the idol’s forearm and then went for his face, allegedly causing a minor scratch. Similar incidents occurred in Japan (April 19) and Mexico City (March 24).
BTS j-hope's forthcoming HOPE ON THE STAGE concert will take place on May 24, 2025, and May 25, 2025, at NTSU Arena (Linkou Hall) in Taipei, Taiwan. After that, the idol will head to Osaka, Japan, to perform at the Kyocera Dome on May 31 and June 1, 2025.
