BTS’ j-hope is bringing his solo concert film HOPE ON THE STAGE: THE MOVIE to Philippine cinemas on November 12, 2025, with SM IMAX preview screenings beginning November 3.

The concert film captures electrifying performances from the K-pop star’s first solo world tour, featuring tracks from his albums Jack in the Box and HOPE ON THE STREET Vol. 1. It also includes the world premiere of “Killin’ It Girl,” which debuted at No. 16 on the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 (chart dated June 28, 2025).

Beyond the stage, the film offers exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and special appearances from fellow BTS members Jin and Jungkook, giving fans a rare glimpse of j-hope’s artistry and personality. Produced by HYBE and Big Hit Entertainment, HOPE ON THE STAGE: THE MOVIE highlights j-hope’s evolution as a solo artist during BTS’ hiatus — which concluded this June when the group reunited as a full unit.

Earlier this year, j-hope brought his solo tour to Asia, including the Manila leg in April, produced by Live Nation Philippines. The show treated Filipino ARMYs to a five-part journey through his creative and emotional growth as a solo artist. The tour spanned 16 cities and 33 shows, drawing over 500,000 fans worldwide. The film culminates with the grand finale performances in Goyang, South Korea, held on June 13 and 14.
