Gwangju Chungjang-ro KPOP STAR Street

광주 충장로 케이팝 스타의 거리 · Gwangju · Neighbourhoods & streets

J-hope Hope World · This street was created to commemorate K-pop stars from Gwangju. Within the street, there are murals depicting singers' album jackets, benches decorated with song titles, handprints, and sculptures. After j-hope personally stopped by the bench decorated with the theme of a BTS song and posted a proof shot, it became a holy place for fans. It is one of the essential courses that 'ARMY' cannot miss because he left a message of appreciation and impressions of visiting this place.
