"The guy next to me 'proposed' to his girlfriend in front of Hobi. Hobi was very confused and then very delighted."

A user (@diana_ddss) commented on the post, saying:

"Poor Hobi he got shocked at first thinking he was being proposed hahaha omg."

What did fans think of the proposal in front of J-Hope?

The comment section is mixed with congratulations for the newly-engaged couple, as well as a few cynical comments. As seen on the clip, J-Hope was pleasantly shocked seeing a proposal happen right in front of him. After a few seconds, he regained his composure and was clapping and congratulating the newly-engaged couple.

Here are a few X users' reactions on the post:

One fan (@Isabell23527726) left a sweet comment that said:

"Its so cute She got the chance to share this with her favorite artist too . Congratulations to them."

Another user (@everydayjeykay), who was curious about the girl's answer commented:

"I didnt hear her say yes! She did right??? Or maybe she just nodded???"

There are also J-Hope fans who completely disagree with the man's proposal. These are their comments:

"I'd reject him right there tbh. She got the barricade ticket, also got ticks for meet and greet and he even wanted the attention on himself in that short time that she got to see hobi. I can't find this cute 🤷🏽‍♀️" - @Vminie_Cie7 commented.
"I have conflict with this 🤔 I mean, share this moment with your favorite idol, but like that man just stole the spotlight, she just wanted to see hobi, she brought the barricade ticket and then when hobi is in front of her the man proposed?? I don’t know, It’s like 50/50," @CLop21 wrote.

On another note, ARMY noticed the change in Hobi's bodyguard's (Mr.Lee) face and commented on it.

"I think this is the first time I've seen Mr. Lee smile 🤣🤣🤣 wow," @SaNB7777777 said.
"First time saw our strict bodyguard smiling 🤌🏻☺️," @namuubear noted.

One fan (@thanos_colored) said:

"Love how all the staff are delighted too Very cute I love when ppl are happy for other ppl."

While some fans congratulated them, others had different reactions. J-Hope, on his part, got to witness a fan's precious moment that he and the couple will remember forever.
