BTS’ J-Hope has been added to Lollapalooza’s 2022 lineup as a Sunday headliner, making him the first South Korean artist to headline a main stage at a US festival. He replaces Doja Cat, who was forced to drop out of the festival after undergoing tonsil surgery.
“It’s a thrilling new challenge that I think will become a really memorable chapter in my musical history! I’m gonna give you guys a great show. Get ready to get crazyyyyyy!” J-Hope wrote in an Instagram post announcing the news.
K-pop group TOMORROW X TOGETHER have also joined Lollapalooza’s lineup, marking another feat for South Korean representation on the US festival circuit. The boy band is set to perform on Saturday.
