J-Hope also reached out to fans on his birthday, holding a V Live broadcast that started a little before his birthday and counted down to it. Other team members including Jimin, Jungkook, V, and Jin joined him to wish him a happy birthday. According to reports, Jin gifted him a pair of J-Hope name-brand shoes. Last year, Jimin gave J-Hope a pair of the same brand.
Suga and Rap Monster were unable to join the broadcast as it took place during their concert rehearsals and the two were caught up in a meeting. But, they have uploaded photos of J-Hope on Twitter wishing him a happy birthday.

"Yoon Ji" referred to the name of Suga's female character from a recent V Live broadcast. In the broadcast, Suga will have to dress up as a high school girl.
Big Hit Entertainment, the official agency of BTS, also uploaded their traditional photo for a member's birthday. It showed the J-Hope surrounded by drawings and messages from the other group members.
