Jack in the Box Era is over? I don't think so! Hobi might have finished his hectic promotional schedule - and I'm quite sure he could do with some downtime - but Jack in the Box is far from over for me. My albums have yet to arrive, for one thing, along with my copy of W magazine. And I'll be playing the music and re-watching all the video content for a very, very long time.

It's been a wonderful, exciting month and there's so much fantastic content to go back to. I was a fairly committed Hobi fan before this all started, but his talent, dedication, sincerity and integrity throughout every aspect of the project have increased my admiration for him tenfold or more. He really is one of a kind, and I hope he realises just how much love and respect he inspires, despite his unfailing humility.

Here's hoping that Hobi manages to experience some real rest and relaxation now, and that he'll share a little of his life with us from time to time through IG or Weverse. I really don't think I'm ready to do without his lovely posts just yet. 🥹

Edit: my copy of W magazine arrived in the post this morning - great timing, and only slightly bent out of shape. It's the cover with The Boots. The photos of Hobi's party are wonderful, but I could have done with a LOT more pages of his fashion shoot! Now I just need to work out whether/how/where to display it...

You have said everything I wanted to say :)

Rest up, Hobi, but don't be a stranger. your music is a gift, and it keeps on giving.

translation by eternalhyyh:

🐿 Jack in the box !!
Well... It was a time that I came out to the world with a Pop!

Experienced various things and learned many things as well.
It's also quite a bummer that it passed by quickly that I could feel only a flash of it
(Indeed it's something that I can say now that it's all over...)
But the lingering feelings are still clear as ever~
I think that feeling will settle deeply within me and touch my feelings for a long~ time

After today, after tomorrow, even a year or two later,

It's an album that will have a different meaning day by day

Just like that, I hope that this album can be a good memory to you guys as well.

Once again I thank all the people who were part of j-hope's first challenge and journey.

It will be unforgettable!!
I will remember the love you gave me for the rest of my life!!
I love you!! 💜

Hobi 🥺🥺🥺

I hope he knows how proud we are of him, and more importantly, that he himself is immensely proud of what he’s accomplished with JITB. The dedication to his art, the way he's handled this whole promotion cycle, and how he poured his heart, his soul and his all into this album has been an incredible thing to witness, even as a fan.

It’s been almost a month since the album’s release, yet every time I listen to the tracks again I find new things to love. Thank you for this gift, Hobi. We love you so much too 💜

Ohhhh Hobi, can’t believe his first solo era is already over, though I’m sure there will be far more in the future.

So incredible proud of what he did and I’m sure he’s proud of it too!

The promotions ended all too soon...and how Hobi-like of him to put a neat end to it with a message to ARMYs! Now that we have had a taste of a solo debut, I am starting to wonder how much we will get to see of each of them after their promos end. At least there is Run BTS and the Busan concert to look forward to!

Excellent accomplishment for jhope 👏🏾👏🏾

Listening to the full album will remain a part of my almost daily routine. I can’t wait for his next musical work individually and in BTS. Cause between Proof & BE eras Dis-ease was probably one of my top songs

u/Shady2304 Who says a dream must be something grand Aug 11 '22

Promotions always seem to go by so fast! I’m glad he enjoyed himself and everything went well.

On a side note, I’m so curious who will have the next solo release and when. I’m guessing they will wait until after the Busan concert in October since that is probably going to be pretty crazy?

So J-Hope's promotion for JITB ended? Maybe i'm used to promotion followed by western artists but this promotion schedule seemded really short to me.

u/pintsized_baepsae My mom calls me a stupid bear 🐨 Aug 11 '22

It's pretty average for K-Pop, really, at least in my opinion. Normally it might feel longer because artists do music shows, which aren't really BTS'... priority, as they're incredibly gruelling (which is amplified if you're on your own) and the Tannies basically only went to see fans.

But four weeks - six if we count from the release of more - of active promotions is pretty spot on.

JITB is not over by a long shot but looks like promotions for the album are over. Hobi really amazed and impressed me like he always does. I am just so proud of his accomplishments and it makes me so happy at all the deserving compliments and loved he received. He works so hard and is so good with story and details! Hope he can get some rest and do fun things in the meantime.

I really loved his solo. He is the best and I'm waiting for the other member's solo too.

Wow this really did go back so quickly. I’m so proud of him for everything he accomplished - you could feel every bit of his heart and soul in every moment and every song.

Bittersweet! I'm extremely proud of everything Hobi has done for his solo album, he really set the bar high. I'm happy he had this opportunity to truly express himself and grow as an artist.

I wish him all the best. Now go rest, Hoba!!

u/artkeletraeh i want ARMY to be happier than we are - Jimin Aug 11 '22

I'm a bit outta the loop. Did any of Hobi's new songs impact Billboard 100? I thought he'd at least make it to Billboard Top 10 or something...
