J-Hope, a rapper and dancer of K-pop supergroup BTS, will prerelease "More," a track from his upcoming debut solo album, this week, his agency said Tuesday.
The song will hit music services at 1 p.m. Friday in Korea ― midnight in the U.S. (EST) ― two weeks ahead of the release of his first album, "Jack in the Box," July 15, according to Big Hit Music.
J-Hope teased the upcoming album with a photo of him posted on social media staring into the camera, wearing what appears to be a black jester's hat and a white costume.
The album will be released only in a digital format through the Weverse Album app.
He will be the first BTS member to go solo since the septet announced plans earlier this month to take a temporary break from full group activities to focus on individual projects.
The singer-rapper released his first solo mix tape, "Hope World," in 2018, which ranked 38th on the Billboard 200 in the United States; and "Chicken Noodle Soup," a collaborative single with American singer-actor Becky G in 2019. (Yonhap)
