BTS member J-Hope lands in Dubai and has taken the UAE fans over social media

Dubai: J-Hope from BTS was spotted in Dubai in the early hours of November 17, and naturally, the internet went into overdrive. The rapper and lead dancer casually posted a snapshot from his Emirates flight on Instagram, confirming to millions of fans that he’d just touched down from Seoul.

Why he’s here, though, is still anyone’s guess.

Some fans reckon he might be in town for Dubai Watch Week, which runs from November at Dubai Mall 19–23. Others have pointed out that a couple of dancers from J-Hope’s team, including Alyssa and Tyra, also seem to be heading this way. Their posts about 16-hour flights to the UAE have only added fuel to the fire, with theories swirling about a possible performance.

There’s also Dream Concert UAE happening on 22 November in Abu Dhabi, featuring ATEEZ, Red Velvet, All [H]ours and Triple S. No BTS member is officially on the line-up, but that hasn’t stopped fans from wondering if a surprise appearance could be in the works.

Across social media, ARMYs are in full detective mode, swapping clues and building theories by the minute. And if J-Hope is planning a secret performance in the UAE, it might just go down as one of the best-kept surprises in K-pop history.
