BTS’ J-Hope made headlines after his unexpected appearance at Blackpink's second Deadline tour concert in Goyang on July 6.
While the star-studded audience included Twice's Nayeon and Jihyo, it was J-Hope who drew the most attention. Fans online were quick to speculate about the reason for his attendance—many now believe he was personally invited by Jisoo.
The rumour gained momentum when fans noticed J-Hope’s manager holding a shopping bag from BLISSOO, Jisoo’s personal brand. The detail led to widespread discussion, with fans questioning whether the two top idols share a private friendship.

"Are Jisoo and J-Hope friends?" quickly became a trending topic, with social media users dissecting past interactions—or the lack thereof—between the two.
Though neither has confirmed any personal relationship, the sight of a BTS member attending a Blackpink concert was enough to fuel theories.
J-Hope’s low-key entrance and relaxed presence were captured in fan videos, further stoking excitement.
Blackpink's Deadline tour, which began in South Korea, is now headed to Los Angeles, followed by stops in major cities across North America and Europe. The finale is scheduled in January 2026.
