"I get this question a lot."
Every person has different sides to them. For example, the person you are with your friends may be very different from the person you are at work.
This is also true of celebrities, which is why Disney+ asked J-Hope from BTS about who he really is.
When asked if there's a big difference between the artist J-Hope and his real name, Jung Hoseok, he wasn't sure if there was one.
"I live as J-Hope and Jung Hoseok… I'm not sure if there's a limit or not." — J-Hope
People ask him what's different about the two versions of himself, but they're both him, so it's hard to tell.
"I get this question a lot. "What makes Jung Hoseok different from J-Hope? Then I think, "Jung Hoseok and J-Hope are both me. How are they different?" — J-Hope
Even though it's hard to point out a difference, he says that the professionalism of how each "persona" presents itself can be different. You will show different sides of yourself at work and at home, but they are both a part of who you are.
"I guess the only difference is whether you are more casual or more business-like. There are certainly some hopes for J-Hope." — J-Hope
If J-Hope shows his professional side, Jung Hoseok's home life shows his more relaxed side.
"You know, Jung Hoseok is just me in my pajamas with my hair not washed." — J-Hope
But it's not as easy as it seems to draw the line: This laid-back side of him is also a part of J-Hope.
"But that's another part of J-Hope as well." — J-Hope
"And if you want, I can show you those parts. I don't care. Laughs" — J-Hope
Since J-Hope is always true to himself, it can be hard to tell him apart from Jung Hoseok.
Even though there are only a few small differences between the two, like whether it's professional or casual, they are the same and make up the same J-Hope.
He is the same person whether you call him J-Hope or Jung Hoseok. He works hard, is kind, and is humble.
