Optimism takes strength, and he has
shown us just how much of it he has.
Although we know that he has bad
days like anyone else, he still gathers
himself to be the embodiment of hope
for us. We could only wish that he
gives the same encouragement to
himself when facing his own setbacks.
On top of looking after the younger
ones, J-Hope also watches over the
older members just as much.
J-Hope and RM were born
on the same year. RM even mentioned
that if he is fire, J-Hope is water who

Hoseok also loves to take care of Tae-
hyung, and it’s hard not to notice how
much Taehyung appreciates him.
In fact, J-Hope’s specific caring nature
was showcased in one of the Bangtan
Bomb episodes where Taehyung was
napping, and J-Hope went to kiss him
on top of his head. The tenderness
between the two is indeed endear-

of BTS, persuaded J-Hope to stay in
the group. From the very beginning,

SUGA. His joyfulness brings out
something special in SUGA, as he
smiles a lot and goofs around
whenever they are together.
SUGA also said that J-Hope
gives him energy, like a battery.
Together, they are dubbed as “Sope”.
When it comes to the eldest member,
Jin, J-Hope also aids in taking the role
of giving comfort to Jin. Jin has been
seen countless times hugging J-Hope
behind the scenes, and it is always
sweet to watch these two play around
and laugh at each other’s antics.
