K-Pop superband BTS’ member J-Hope is all set to unveil his maiden solo album Jack in the Box on July 15.
The first single will drop on July 1, reports Variety.
According to the official announcement, Jack in the Box lends voice to J-Hope’s aspirations to break the mould and grow further.

The album represents J-Hope’s own musical personality and vision as an artist.
In making the announcement of solo projects earlier this month, J-Hope said he sees it as a healthy step.
“I think we should spend some time apart to learn how to be one again,” he said. “I hope you don’t see this as a negative thing, and see it as a healthy plan. I think BTS will become stronger that way.”
Earlier this week, the group’s new compilation album ‘Proof’ became their sixth album to debut atop the Billboard 200 chart, despite the drama that accompanied its release. Four days before it dropped, the group announced they would be taking a break to focus on their solo careers.
That news had little impact on the Army, however, as ‘Proof’ opened at No. 1 on the album chart (dated June 25), with the equivalent of 314,000 sales in the US, according to Billboard via Luminate.
A large part of that unit figure was motivated by CD album sales, which included an extra 13 tracks as opposed to the digital download and streaming album.
The album, released June 10, is a three-disc compilation with a large majority of its contents being previously released material.
