J-Hope of BTS is gearing up to headline the Lollapalooza in Chicago on July 31, however, the event is particularly special for ARMY as this is Hobi’s first solo concert, and it will be the first time a South Korean act will headline a major US music festival, making them want to watch the show even more, however apart from those who are from Chicago and can go there to watch the show, there are still millions of ARMY’s who just can not go, including me.
It is worth mentioning that the demand for a single-day ticket to Lollapalooza day 3 (now referred to as Hobipalooza) is the highest in the festival’s history, however, we should not undermine BTS’s moto of ARMY first, as they have figured out a way to Livestream the show.
Earlier it was announced that Hulu will be streaming the performance live. This meant that only American fans could watch the Livestream of J-Hope’s set.
But on July 27, Big Hit Music announced through Weverse that the show will also be broadcasted in real-time through Weverse App/PC and the Weverse TV App. The Livestream will start on July 31, 9 PM CST (August 1, 11 AM KST).
Though the official setlist has not been revealed, J-Hope is expected to perform tracks from his new album Jack In The Box, as well as some of his old hits. Fans are speculating that a J-Hope and Becky G collaboration stage might also happen since J-Hope’s dance crew The Lab posted Instagram stories of “Chicken Noodle Soup.”
Additionally, TXT will also be performing at the event, so MOAs can also catch their fabs live through Weverse.
The official statement is as follows:
