When BTS member J-Hope unveiled his latest solo track Killin’ It Girl, fans were left stunned by the powerful transformation the star showcased.
Shedding his familiar soft-boy image, Jung Hoseok embraced a fierce and edgy persona, complete with razor-sharp visuals and a chiselled physique that instantly set social media ablaze.
This release, while marking the end of his 2025 solo single trilogy, feels like the start of an exciting new creative era for the artist—what he himself has termed his “Chapter 2.”
The music video, which premiered on HYBE Labels’ official YouTube channel, opens with J-Hope donning a bold red-and-black biker jacket, dramatically left unbuttoned to reveal his defined six-pack abs—an image that had ARMYs (BTS’s fandom) reeling.

Matched with distressed denim, statement belts, chunky silver jewellery, and rugged boots, the outfit speaks to a more mature and confident style, one that resonates deeply with the track’s seductive vibe.

Hobi’s artistry keeps evolving and it's absolutely mesmerizing!!”
Killin’ It Girl serves as the final instalment in J-Hope’s 2025 trilogy, following Sweet Dreams (featuring Miguel) and Mona Lisa. This latest track bursts with swaggering hip-hop beats before flowing seamlessly into a polished pop chorus with an infectious hook that lingers in your mind long after the music stops.

According to BigHit Music, the single is "a hip-hop song that vividly expresses the thrill of love at first sight, with lyrics describing the experience of gazing at a confident and charming partner."
A notable guest appearance by American rapper GloRilla, whose gritty energy adds an international edge, gives the song even more depth.
The chemistry between J-Hope and dancer Alyssa Santos is also evident in the music video, as each frame is captivating due to her dynamic choreography.
