During the finalization process from staff, Mang was given a mask, possibly to add mystery and a cool, new element to their identity.

Because of this, J-Hope once discussed if Mang’s end goal was to remove the mask.

Recently, Mang has been teasing at taking off their mask to reveal what is underneath and fans are growing curious.

This is why J-Hope recently entered the office to brainstorm ideas for Mang’s face!

He shared that the moment feels right for Mang to remove their mask, giving even more depth to their story.

In the teaser video, J-Hope shows big reactions as he tries to formulate ideas for the little guy’s true identity!

Sometimes not confident in his drawing abilities, J-Hope hilariously teases about their real face…

…and it’s totally leaving us in suspense!

Follow along the journey as J-Hope comes up with ideas for Mang.

He might need a little help along the way, but he’s ready to make it happen!

“Inside Mang — The New Universe” premieres on March 3.
