Big Hit Music has uploaded J-Hope of BTS‘ Lollapalooza set in its entirety on YouTube – watch it below.The video, which clocks in at slightly over an hour, was uploaded to the K-pop boyband’s BANGTANTV YouTube channel on August 3.

It fully documents J-Hope’s headline set on the final night of the Chicago festival (July 31), including footage of all 18 songs on singer-rapper’s setlist that night, including cuts from his solo discography as well as BTS’ own songs.

He also brought out singer Becky G to perform their collaboration ‘Chicken Noodle Soup’.This year’s Lollapalooza was a particularly notable one for K-pop fans: the night before J-Hope performed (July 30), his labelmates in Tomorrow X Together made history as the first K-pop group to perform at the festival.

With his own performance at Lollapalooza, J-Hope became the first South Korean artist to headline a major music festival in the US.In a five-star review of his Lollapalooza set, NME’s Rhian Daly wrote that J-Hope “arrives as a true solo great” and “makes history once again but more than that, he proves exactly what he’s capable of with or without anyone beside him – true greatness”.The Lollapalooza set – which fans have taken to calling ‘Hobipalooza’ – came after the release of J-Hope’s debut album ‘Jack In The Box’ on July 15, led by the singles ‘More’ and ‘Arson’.
