The striking visuals not only left fans stunned but also brought back memories of a past promise of J-Hope regarding revealing his abs when he turned 30, making the current reveal all the more special.
J-Hope 's jaw-dropping black and white shirtless photos for Killin' It Girl promotion left fans gasping for air.

J-Hope's past comment revisited
A hilarious 2016 moment popped in the minds of BTS ARMYs as they gazed at J-Hope's new photos showcasing his toned physique. During a full-group live broadcast back then, J-Hope had playfully revealed a t-shirt with cartoonish abs drawn on it, promising to turn those fake abs into real ones under certain conditions. These conditions included BTS reaching 10 million followers on V Live and releasing their 5th studio album.
J-Hope said, "I will develop a great six pack" and the BTS members jokingly chimed in about when this feat might happen. Some mentioned if it would be during their 10th anniversary album or when they would turn 30 or after they finish their military training. Now, at 32 years old, J-Hope seems to have fulfilled his promise, leaving fans thrilled and praising him for being true to his word.
Fans are affectionately dubbing him the "Man who keeps his promises" and "A man of his words", clearly impressed by his dedication and follow-through. He did it as part of his concept photoshoot for his upcoming 3rd single, Killin' It Girl.

Tanuj Virwani calls working on 'Rana Naidu 2' a phenomenal experience: 'I am cautiously optimistic'
Actor Tanuj Virwani , who will be seen in "Rana Naidu" Season 2, has been a "massive fan" of the first season. He said he had a phenomenal experience shooting and that he was cautiously optimistic about the second installment of the series. Tanuj said: "The experience has been truly phenomenal. I am a massive fan of the first season. In fact, I used to keep pestering Karan Anshuman who is also my showrunner for all 3 seasons of Inside Edge. I used to tell him to give me a role as I really wanted to be a part of his special universe." He added: "It doesn't matter what he wrote for me as I always knew he would write something nice for me. Cut to a few months, he was back. He said that he's developing something and he thought I would be fit for that part. So he asked me to catch up and discuss more. When I heard the narration, I loved what he had written for me and I knew I could bring something different to the table. I am always excited to try new and different stuff." The actor said that when there are "handful of scenes" and the "role" is pivotal to the larger narrative, "it can freeze you off the shackles." "When you are the main lead in a show or a film, there's more added responsibility on your shoulders and maybe that chance to experiment and freedom is a little less. But, when you are in a handful of scenes and your role is very important to the larger narrative, it can freeze you off the shackles." He added: "That's what this role of Chirag Oberoi in ' Rana Naidu Season 2 ' offered me. I am cautiously optimistic and I hope the audience enjoys watching it as much as I enjoyed being a part of it." Talking about other cast members, he said: "We also have some fantastic additions. Kriti Kharbanda and I are playing brothers and sisters, Rajat Kapoor is playing our father. There's a very interesting dynamic between the three of us and I truly can't wait for 13th June." "Rana Naidu" Season 2 is set to stream on Netflix from June 13. "Rana Naidu" is an action crime drama television series directed by Karan Anshuman and Suparn Verma. It is the official adaptation of the 2013 American crime drama TV series Ray Donovan. It stars Venkatesh Daggubati, Rana Daggubati (as the title character), Suchitra Pillai, Gaurav Chopra and Surveen Chawla in lead roles. The series was released on 10 March 2023.
