MANILA, Philippines — Ticketing details for the Manila leg of Korean singer J-Hope's first-ever solo world tour are now available, with Filipino ARMY eager to see a BTS member back on Philippine soil.
The artist's "Hope on the Stage" begins in Seoul later this month before continuing on to shows in North America.

Manila is the first stop of the tour's main Asia leg in Mall of Asia Arena on April 12 and 13, the same venue any BTS member last performed in the Philippines when the group visited for its "Wings" tour in 2017.
There are six ticket options for fans to choose from:
- General Admission: P4,000
- Upper Box: P8,750
- Lower Box B: P13,500
- Lower Box A: P15,750
- VIP Stage Package: P20,000
- VIP Hope Package: P22,500
Both VIP packages include a floor ticket, soundcheck party experience, early access to the show floor and merchandise booth, and exclusive items (laminate, lanyard, gift), but the Hope package also includes a send-off activity experience.
There are also three phases for ticket selling: ARMY Membership presale on February 19, Smart presale the following day, and general selling from February 21 onwards.
To take part in the ARMY Membership presale, individuals must join the global ARMY membership on WeVerse and register until February 7, after which they can purchase tickets during the indicated date with their pre-sale code (their global ARMY membership number).
The tour's name is taken from the singer's six-part documentary "Hope On The Street" from last year that revolved around his "origin story and love for dancing as he begins a new journey in the 12th year of his professional career."
The announcement comes just months after J-Hope finished Korea's mandatory military enlistment. Only him and BTS' eldest member Jin have competed their service as of writing.
The remaining members of BTS — Suga, RM, V, Jimin, and Jungkook — are expected to complete their service later this year, signaling a major reunion before 2025 ends.
