How did BTS fans learn J-Hope, Jimin, and V had a drink at recent group outing? Hilarious telltale sign spotted
V shared a new set of photos with the fans, and this one had them laughing about an unexpected reason: J-Hope's neck! Continuing to share moments from the group's recent meal together at a famed restaurant where RM, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin and V were seen having a fun time, member Kim Taehyung dropped a couple of new selfies. Their Malibu dining session seemed to have ended with a few drinks, very visibly seen with the glee expression on their faces as well as the redness of J-Hope 's skin, a shared secret in the ARMY fandom. Truth behind J-Hope's outing revealed As soon as V shared the photos starring J-Hope and Jimin, fans were quick to notice the very red neck of the oldest member and the satisfied expression on his face. They also giggled at the difference in his look before and after the meal, as previously revealed in Jimin's update one day before. Older and long-running members of the fanbase would know how much of a lightweight the MONA LISA singer was. One glass of any drink, and he would be a goner. Not very fond of trying out various kinds, he sticks to one diluted concoction to get through the night, much like what he has previously spoken about. In the selfie, he smiled lightly while the redness on his neck and the jolly expression on his face gave away the truth about what had gone down among the singers. The other BTS members have a better tolerance, however, as RM, Jungkook, and V have previously openly spoken about letting loose now and then. Recently, Jimin was spotted parodying a drinking session during a livestream with the other three. SUGA previously hosted a drinking show on the group's YouTube channel where guests were required to carry their own favorite beverages, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. However, the show Suchwita is unlikely to resume with a second season post his military enlistment and the e-scooter DUI incident, which saw him paying a fine and publicly apologizing. Meanwhile, BTS is currently in the US working on their group album set for spring 2026 release.

Sana says there's valid reason why J-Hope is successful, reacts to BTS and TWICE talking informally to each other
Sana's Fridge Interview became a holy grail for 3rd generation K-pop fans as TWICE member Sana interacted with many fellow singers, and one that got the most attention was the episode with BTS member J-Hope. As a part of his solo promotions, the older star got to share the contents of his fridge with the world and the two were able to create a lot of interesting moments including one where the MONA LISA singer got the chair stuck on his 'wings' and according to Sana's recent comments, was followed by her falling down. But the production team decided to edit out her embarrassing moment, saving her face in front of the viewers. Sana credits J-Hope's success to his good nature For the last episode of the second season of Sana's Fridge Interview, the TWICE member recalled some highlights. Praising her interaction with the BTS member, Sana shared that it was the first time she was able to speak to J-Hope personally. 'He's just such a nice person that I thought, 'Ah, success really does come to people for a reason.' He was so gentle and calm,' she said, adding a thumbs-up at the end. Reading a comment from her viewer, 'I'm watching BTS and TWICE casually chatting in 2025', she understood what a rare sight that was. Agreeing with it she recalled their early days as K-pop stars, 'Back in the day, we barely even had time to greet each other. There was no chance to actually talk.' Reacting to the 'informal talk' portion of the comment, she added that there was no way they could do that as senior-junior teams back then. But things had changed now, 'We're meeting up and talking about old times, cooking and sharing meals.' She wondered if not for her show, they would have ever done this.

BTS supports J-Hope at solo concert In a new BANGTAN BOMB episode on the BANGTANTV YouTube channel, the unseen moments from J-Hope's 2 encore concerts were shared. Amid his hard work for pulling off a successful solo tour, the highlight was none other than the appearance of the other BTS members on day 1, which coincided with their debut anniversary. While practising for the surprise, Jungkook popped a burning question to his hyung, asking if it was bothersome to have him and Jin join the stage for a performance. Being ever so welcoming, J-Hope denied any such thoughts and thanked them for making the day even more special. On June 13, all seven BTS members were reunited backstage, where the Killin' It Girl singer thanked them for cheering him up and sneaked in a 'love you really' while hugging RM. Jimin praised his influence, sharing how his crazy-good skills were all people were talking about 'on the streets'. SUGA wondered if there would be water works, in a rare appearance, before his alternative military service completion. Another notable moment was when V appeared backstage to hang out with him and grabbed a spoonful of J-Hope's special honey that his father had been giving him. Not satisfied with one try, the Layover singer grabbed another mouthful, enjoying the authentic taste. The older member's kind words encouraging him became a special interaction between the two.
