j-hope is currently on the final leg of his world tour HOPE ON THE STAGE with only a few shows left. His first solo tour in his career has taken him to many cities, meeting tens of thousands of fans around the world.

Through his tour, j-hope also responded to the fans' warm affection with performances that satisfy both the ears and the eyes. In particular, what makes fans even more impressed with j-hope is the way he shows his sincere feelings through direct interaction and subtle actions.

During his recent concert in Taipei, j-hope changed a small detail when interacting with fans, making ARMYs both happy and laughing because of the story behind it.

Specifically, a clip from the May 25, 2025 performance quickly went viral on SNS, capturing the image of j-hope personally handing out “HOBI MONEY” during the performance. This action was different from other performances where he used a money cannon to increase the effect of the performance.

Not only that, he also accompanied the dramatic action of kissing the money. He also wore a shirt with the words “YES EYE SEE”, which fans quickly αѕѕociated with the situation mentioned below.

This sudden change originated from the moment j-hope watched his concert on TV on May 18 and zoomed in on a particularly funny moment of a fan, who was desperate to collect “HOBI MONEY”. ARMYs were seen stretching their legs under the seats and trying to use their toes to pick up a bill on the ground.

The BTS rapper shared the moment with a laugh while ARMYs were embarrαѕѕed by being "exposed". Later in the performance, j-hope showed his "concern" for the fan's toes by handing them money along with a cute tease.

Not only that, j-hope also laughed when fans reminded him of the above situation after the concert ended. A fan mentioned: "We took Hobi money with foot" and he humorously replied: "Haha, I saw that. Oh my gosh.  You want it? Hobi money? Has anyone collected all this Hobi money? Honestly, I wanted to print out the Hobi money and frame it too".

Fans filled the comments section with playful banter:

- Should I laugh or should I cry

- He's a sweetheart but we also embarrαѕѕed

- Kissing the money is crazy. Making us extra insane

- He truly knows everything

- I still can´t believe he has seen that

- Hobi giving out the money himself so army doesn't need to use their toes 

- That he KISSED?!?!? WTF JUNG HOSEOK?!???

- someone said he hugs people like he's jesus. now he's giving out money like they're holy relics or communion at mαѕѕ (or whatever it's in english) SAINT HOBERTO

- His shirt is just cherry on the cake. Saying - Yes Eye(I) See (everything)

- Sometimes good thing comes out from embarrαѕѕment

- He saw the legs...I wonder if he also seen the army вσмв fishing for money

After the recent stop in Taipei, he is now heading to the final stop of the tour, Osaka. The tour will officially end on June 1, which is also the time when BTS reunites after a long period of military service.
