J-Hope Returns to the Stage with Solo Tour in San Antonio
J-Hope, a member of the globally renowned K-pop group BTS, is set to perform at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas, on March 26 and 27, 2025, as part of his “Hope on the Stage” solo tour. This tour marks his return to the stage following an 18-month mandatory military service in South Korea.
Fans, affectionately known as the Army, have organized several initiatives to welcome J-Hope to San Antonio. They have prepared 19,000 banners and paper fans to display during his performances. Additionally, a billboard has been set up for fans to take photos, and prominent city landmarks, including the Tower of the Americas, will be illuminated in purple—the signature color associated with BTS.
In collaboration with the Korean American Cultural Center of San Antonio, a free three-day art exhibit is being held at Nomas Arte Studio. This exhibit highlights the cultural connection between San Antonio and J-Hope’s hometown of Gwangju, South Korea.
The “Hope on the Stage” tour includes performances in other U.S. cities, such as Oakland, California, following the San Antonio concerts. Tickets for the San Antonio shows are available through Ticketmaster.
Fans attending the concerts should be aware of the weather forecast. On March 26, the forecast predicts humid conditions with intervals of clouds and sunshine, and a couple of afternoon thunderstorms, with a high of 79°F (26°C). On March 27, expect cloudy and cooler conditions with showers and a heavy thunderstorm, with a high of 69°F (20°C).
Nigerian actress Juliana Olayode expresses her worry regarding the increase in sex rates among teenagers.
The actress took to social media and expressed her shock at the things she has heard from teenagers, claiming that it is a serious issue.
“What is your body count? The things I hear these days, especially from teenagers, leave me speechless and break my heart. While some people would say, ‘Enjoy your life while you’re young, make all the mistakes you want now,’ I don’t — that includes sexually.”
“Sex is spiritual. People only talk about the fun part; nobody really talks about the spiritual aspect of it. Sex and other sexual activities are for MARRIED people. I can write an epistle about this.”

Ghanaian-American singer Amaarae goes viral after sharing her thoughts on the current state of Afrobeats, stating that the genre has stalled.
She expressed concern about how Afrobeats is becoming too repetitive and urged artists to experiment with new sounds.
“Afrobeats and African music need to evolve. It needs to evolve in a direction that is fearless, and I think right now artists have made so much money from a certain type of sound that they are afraid to step out of the boundaries because they are probably more focused on the financial aspect of it. And as a result, I think Afrobeats has stalled.”
The singer then gave an example, commenting on how Rema did just that with his recent album “HEIS”.
