With each member now focused on solo careers, HYBE has been raking in profits from individual projects too, reporting a massive 133.25 billion KRW in Q1 2025 alone.

It was J-Hope who stole the spotlight, his sold-out concerts pushing his popularity through the roof. J-Hope aka Jung Hoseok, the rapper of the seven member boy band, recently wrapped up his first world tour HOPE ON THE STAGE. According to Meritz Securities, his concerts played a huge role in helping HYBE record a massive 85.7% revenue jump in North America in the first quarter of 2025. According to a July 28 report, HYBE earned 133.25 billion KRW (about $102 million) during this period, one of the company's biggest quarterly spikes in recent years.

After returning from the military, he released 'Mona Lisa,' which was previewed during his tour, and more recently 'Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel),' with both songs part of his Hope on the Street Vol.1 album. Reports said ticket sales were strong in every city, proving that BTS fandom remains loyal no matter who is performing.
