J-Hope of BTS shared his thoughts on the ongoing world tour during an interview with GQ Korea. While staying in Boston, J-Hope mentioned feeling like he is "touring healthily" during a Weverse Live session and noted that his perspective on work has matured since his military discharge. He explained that he now consciously savors his daily experiences, feeling a sense of achievement in his work and happiness in small moments of rest. Regarding the anxiety he expressed at the March 21st Gwanghwamun concert about being forgotten, J-Hope described the world tour as a warm reciprocation from ARMY. Beyond the emotions felt on stage, J-Hope was moved by watching videos on social media showing how long fans waited and what they felt seeing BTS again. He expressed that "this moment when seven members become one again carries deep meaning for many people." J-Hope also revealed his philosophical approach to music, emphasizing that BTS's music reflects "what we can do at this time" and that understanding where one currently stands is essential.
