From Arson to Daydream: BTS j-hope's setlist for Lollapalooza 2022 Comment Share BTS' j-hope dominating the 2022 Lollapalooza stage (Image via Rolling Stones) BTS’ j-hope made history as the first Korean artist to headline a major music festival in the United States, Lollapalooza. Lollapalooza is an all-genre music festival that takes place every year over a span of a few days at various locations, but has its roots in Chicago. The BTS member headlined the last day of this three-day festival held in Chicago between July 28-31. Ever since BTS’ second chapter was announced, the success of their solo releases and activities has been speculated upon. j-hope was the first member to release his first solo album, instead of the usual mixtape, titled Jack in the Box, which soon became the most streamed K-pop album of 2022.

However, j-hope in his Vogue magazine interview mentioned that he took on this thrilling challenge to have a sober assessment of his skills and the audience. Despite his set being the last one on Sunday that usually sees a drop in the number of attendees, j-hope was the highest ticket seller in the history of Lollapalooza and managed to draw in the largest crowd ever. His powerful performance and stage presence along with his flawless setlist caused the crowd of other artists to gravitate to his set who left the festival being reborn as ARMYs. j-hope s Lollapalooza set list that weaved a beautiful story shan⁷?@ludicjoonthe crowd??

OH THIS REALLY IS HOBIPALOOZA https://t.co/rn3lXuCgKa j-hope set the benchmark for what a headlining act should look like even if they’re first time performers, showcasing that he was born to be on stage. His setlist almost felt like a story mirroring that of Pandora's Box. In the story of Pandora’s Box, once all the evil leaves, only hope remains. He started off his set with songs from his latest album Jack in the Box which explored darker themes and moved on to more upbeat songs from his Hope World mixtape and his solo songs from BTS’ discography, taking the audience through a journey. He came out wearing darker clothes, but changed to pristine white to symbolize hope. Throughout the setlist, we took a journey from his present to his past that ended with his "future".

The majority of the crowd on the third day clearly showed up for j-hope only. ARMYs showed up in style and sang along to each and every song while wildly waving their ARMY Bombs in support of the BTS member. His demand was so high that he was given an additional 10 minutes to perform.

At home, over 14.9 million viewers were watching his set live on Weverse. This number did not include residents of the US who were watching the performance on Hulu.

He also paid homage to Wu-Tang Clan’s Ol’ Dirty Bastard by displaying his picture on the screen. He sampled his song Shimmy Shimmy Ya for What If… These were not the only surprises he had in store for the attendees. He incorporated choreography into his performance of Hope World, taking the fans by surprise and also sang his verse from Cypher Pt. 1 for the OG ARMYs. He even introduced a brand new choreography for the tropical remix of BTS’ song Dynamite. Despite this being his solo performance, he managed to make BTS a part of it with Jimin live in the audience to support his member and best friend. The crowd was the loudest it has ever been for any act, surprising both j-hope and the Lollapalooza veterans. One can only hope that he will grace the Lollapalooza stage once again when the festival returns in January 2023 to India.
