BTS J-Hope's Net Worth Revealed
According to Celebrity Net Worth, J-Hope has a net worth of $20 million. Reports have it that most of the wealth this BTS member has accumulated is from his solo mixtape titled "Hope World," which he released on March 2, 2018. This, according to reports, made him the richest among all the Bangtan Boys.
"Daydream" was the carrier single of the debut mixtape of J-Hope. The BTS member then released a second track called "Airplane" a week after. The "Hope World" album effortlessly entered the Billboard 200 Chart at No. 63 and peaked at No. 38, which made him the highest-charting South Korean soloist at the time.
"Daydream" also made huge feats as it amassed more than 35 million streams on Spotify since its release.

Though he is part of the most successful boy group in recent times, J-Hope did not forget to give back to the community.
