“MORE” is an old-school hip-hop track highlighted by raw drum beats and powerful guitar sound. j-hope’s unique rhythmic flow and shouting rap delivery manifest his flame-like aspirations and pure passion to escape the box and show the world what more he can offer. The song shows j-hope inside the box as suggested in the album title, Jack In The Box. The track acts as one of the key anchors conveying the core message that penetrates the whole album.

The music video of “MORE” begins with a box delivered to j-hope. The rooms behind the doors in a hallway each represent different sides of j-hope. Moving between the rooms, he shows off his various charms. The overall mood is powerful and dark, and the pierrot-motif outfits and items in black and white highlight the aesthetics of the video in opposing senses and his passions.

Written by j-hope and Ivan Jackson Rosenberg, the song has been produced by Basstracks who had previously worked on BTS' track 'Dis-ease'. The remaining tracks of Jack In The Box will also be available on digital music services on July 15 and via Weverse Albums on July 29.

j-hope’s first mixtape Hope World (March 2018) expressed his honest emotions and personal narratives, suggesting his vision as an artist. Globally-famed “Chicken Noodle Soup (feat. Becky G)” released in 2019 showcased his own musical personality with exhilarating energy and performance.

BTS' j-hope is set to be a headliner at Lollapalooza on July 31, 2022.
