ARMY go through every emotion over 'Killin' It Girl'

BTS' J-Hope has once again proved his versatility and stage presence with the release of his latest single, Killin' It Girl, featuring American rapper GloRilla. The sultry track is the final release in his solo single trilogy, which began with Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel) and Mona Lisa in March 2025.

'Killin' It Girl' song and concept

The song starts off with a slick hip-hop rhythm before seamlessly blending into a vibrant pop chorus, leaving listeners hooked by its catchy beat and irresistible energy. Lyrically, the song captures the electrifying feeling of love at first sight, set against a beat that's both edgy and playful.

The music video matches the vibe perfectly. J-Hope exudes charm and confidence as he delivers a sensual and controlled performance. From his expressive facial cues to fluid choreography, every move is deliberate and magnetic, reinforcing his reputation as one of K-pop's most dynamic performers.

ARMY ask 'where's the kiss?'

Ever since teasers dropped, ARMY had been buzzing with anticipation over what seemed like undeniable chemistry between J-Hope and a female dancer featured in the visuals. Posters and sneak peeks hinted at intense, flirtatious energy, leading many fans to believe a kiss might be part of the final cut.

However, when the full music video dropped, fans were left surprised — and a little amused. The expected kiss never came. Instead, the focus remained on J-Hope's captivating solo performance and GloRilla's commanding rap feature.

Still, the absence of a kiss didn't take away from the overall impact. If anything, it only added to the conversation online, with ARMY on X (formerly known as Twitter) expressing everything from shock to amusement, proving once again that J-Hope knows exactly how to keep fans talking.

J-Hope is set to conclude his Hope On The Stage world tour with a grand encore finale in Seoul on June 13 and 14 at Goyang Stadium. The timing couldn't be more meaningful — June 13 marks BTS’ debut anniversary.

With RM and V discharged from the military on June 10, followed by Jimin and Jungkook on June 11, six members are now out of service. SUGA, currently serving as a public service worker, is expected to complete his duties by June 21. This raises hopes for a potential reunion at the concert.
