(Web Desk) – Seoul police have arrested a Brazilian woman in her 30s for stalking BTS member Jungkook, marking her third encounter with authorities over similar incidents.
Seoul’s Yongsan Police Station confirmed on January 4 that the suspect, identified only as “Ms. A,” violated the Act on the Punishment of Crime of Stalking. She allegedly approached Jungkook’s Yongsan-gu residence around 2:50 PM, throwing mail at the property and causing a disturbance, according to AllKpop.
Ms. A had previously been arrested twice last month for similar incidents, prompting Jungkook’s team to request an official restraining order. Police continue to investigate the latest incident in full.
This is not Jungkook’s first encounter with obsessive fans. In 2025, another woman in her 30s was detained for allegedly attempting to break into his Seoul apartment shortly after his military discharge, repeatedly trying to enter the building using the door passcode.
Jungkook has frequently spoken about the challenges posed by “saesangs”, or obsessive fans, urging them to respect personal boundaries. Authorities say these incidents underscore the ongoing risks public figures face from extreme fan behavior and the importance of enforcement measures like restraining orders.
