Fans were excited to see j-hope's most recent post on Weverse, where he apologized for not posting selcas because he recently dyed his hair.

j-hope: I dyed it red ~
j-hope: This's why I didn't upload any selcas ~

However, it turned out to be an April Fools joke. Hobi clarified to fans only minutes later, unable to lie for long.

j-hope: yes, it’s April 1st

The second "red hair" image was also identified as a screenshot from this video Hobi tweeted back in November 2017.

Regardless his post about his red hair got fans worldwide hyped, with Hoseok trending no.1 worldwide, Hobi at no.2 and j-hope at no. 11.

Whether the red hair is real or not will remain to be seen. All we know is that fans would be hyped to see red-haired j-hope again in 2021!
