BTS’ J Hope DROPS new solo track Blue Side; Release coincides with the third anniversary of his 1st solo song

After months of anticipation, BTS member J-Hope is back with a new solo track. The multi-talented rapper, dancer, singer, producer, and songwriter released the 2021 take of 'Blue Side' on the third anniversary of his first mixtape, Hope World. He worked on the song with frequent BTS collaborators ADORA and Hiss noise. The cover art for the full version features doodles by Korean contemporary artist, Eddie Kang.

J-Hope took to Bangtan Blog to share his thoughts about the reworked version of Hope World's closing track via social media, and said: "I wanted to show that I am getting a little bit of musical maturity.... it was released with a strong desire to continue to challenge, develop, and come back with growth."

If you didn’t know, Blue Side is his first solo release since 2019's Chicken Noodle Soup with Becky G. The song sampled the chorus of Webstar and Young B’s 2006 track Chicken Noodle Soup, which J-Hope first came across during the early days of his dance training. J-Hope added his own personal style to the original song with new Korean lyrics and new choreography. The music video for the song was directed by Lumpens, who previously worked with BTS on many hit music videos. J-Hope and Becky G visibly have a fun time showing off the new choreography in the music video.
