We’re Finally Getting A Physical Album Of BTS J-Hope’s “Jack In The Box,” But It’s Old-School
본문
After much anticipation, we’re finally getting a physical album for BTS J-Hope‘s Jack In The Box!
Last month, J-Hope made his solo comeback with his first album Jack In The Box, after previously releasing mixtape Hope World.
Yet, BIGHIT MUSIC chose an inventive method in releasing the physical copies of Jack In The Box. Instead, it was released as a “Weverse album.”

‘Jack In the Box’ will be available on Weverse Album, and you can place your pre-order for the album beginning on Monday, June 27 at online and in-person retailers.

Essentially it is just a package with a QR code and photocards. So, the album consisted of exactly a Card Holder (1 of 2), Photocard A (1 type), Photocard B (1 of 2), and QR card (User guide).
ARMYs were disappointed by the choice to experiment with J-Hope’s album. While it has been viewed as a method of being environmentally cautious as HYBE tests their ESG strategy, many felt it was hypocritical.
The criticism has been heard. Now, finally, we are getting a more traditional album release for Jack In The Box. Yet, in contrast to the previous version, this one is even more old-school as it is a limited edition vinyl rather than a CD.
Hello.
This is BIGHIT MUSIC.We would like to provide information on the pre-order for j-hope’s solo album ‘Jack In The Box’ limited edition Vinyl.
This vinyl will be manufactured and released after receiving pre-orders for a limited quantity. We will not receive additional orders once the initial supply goes out of stock.
