Which BTS member is known as the group's dance leader?

J-Hope is known as BTS's dance leader.

Born Jung Ho-seok, J-Hope is one of BTS's principal dancers and is widely associated with the group's dance leadership. His background includes street dance and performance training, and he was part of an underground dance team in Gwangju before becoming a Big Hit trainee. That experience helped shape his precise, energetic, and highly expressive style.

J-Hope's role is not limited to performing choreography. He is also recognized for helping guide the group's dance practice and for his strong sense of rhythm, musicality, and stage presentation. His nickname "Hobi" reflects his bright public persona, while his dance work often supplies BTS performances with sharpness and momentum.

A common mix-up is choosing Jimin, who is also a main dancer and one of BTS's most technically distinctive performers. Jungkook is another prominent dancer, but J-Hope is the member most commonly identified with the group's dance-leader role. He is also a rapper and solo artist.
