J-Hope Teases New Single ‘MONA LISA’ – and It’s Pure Art

BTS’s J-Hope drops teaser for upcoming single “MONA LISA.”

On Wednesday, J-Hope teased his latest digital single, “MONA LISA,” by releasing a brief 20-second music video teaser on HYBE Labels’ YouTube channel. Despite its short runtime, J-Hope’s captivating presence fills the screen, building anticipation for the full track.

The teaser begins with J-Hope sitting on a stepped bench in a stylish, contemporary art gallery as if waiting for someone. The sound of approaching high heels in the distance catches his attention. As he stands up, a mysterious figure moves closer, leaving a playful smear of cream cake on his cheek before the video fades to black.

The full music video for “MONA LISA” will showcase J-Hope’s signature laid-back performance style. Fans can look forward to seeing the impressive dance moves and expressive flair that earned him the role of BTS’s dance captain. Set in an art gallery—an apt reference to the song’s title—and paired with J-Hope’s stylish rap delivery, the video promises to be a visual and auditory treat.

“MONA LISA” will be released this Friday at 1 PM (KST). The track cleverly compares the allure of an attractive person to the enigmatic charm of a famous painting. Through its lyrics, J-Hope emphasizes that true magnetism isn’t just about outward beauty but lies in each person’s unique qualities.
