After completing 1 year and 6 months of military service, Jungkook of BTS returned to fans, only to be attacked by a foreign stalker fan just a day after his discharge.
The Yongsan Police Station in Seoul announced on the 12th that they arrested a woman in her 30s, identified as A, on charges of attempted trespassing for repeatedly entering the front door password of Jungkook's home the night before. A is reported to have stated during the investigation, "I came to Korea to see Jungkook directly after his discharge."
Jungkook has been the victim of stalking for some time. During a live broadcast before his enlistment in 2023, when fans said, "I want to drink highballs together," he responded, "Should I tell you my address? You already know my address, right? Isn't it all out there? If you search it on YouTube, it will come up." His home address was already exposed among stalkers, which has caused him privacy issues. Additionally, during the Las Vegas tour in May that year, he received multiple calls on a phone left in his accommodation, leading to harassment. Jungkook expressed discomfort, saying, "I don't like this ringtone. It's scary. It's uncomfortable." Furthermore, there was an incident where delivery food was sent to Jungkook's home address. At that time, he warned, "Please do not send delivery food to my house. I won't eat it even if you do. I ask you. If you send it one more time, I will retrieve the order number from the receipt you sent and take action." He later resigned himself to the ongoing invasion of his privacy, saying, "I consider it my fate and just look forward."
Meanwhile, Jungkook was discharged as a cook from the Army's 5th Infantry Division on the 11th, along with Jimin.
