Overview

• Yongsan police detained a South Korean woman in her 40s around 11:20 p.m. on Aug. 30 after she entered the underground parking lot of Jungkook’s apartment by following a vehicle.
• A security guard monitoring CCTV alerted officers, who arrested her on site and booked her on suspicion of housebreaking while investigating her motive.
• During a Sept. 1 Weverse livestream, Jungkook said he watched the incident on his home cameras and warned that anyone entering his property will be detained with recorded evidence.
• Local reports say the suspect gave incoherent statements and claimed she thought she was visiting a friend’s house.
• The case comes after a June 11 attempted entry by a Chinese woman who tried the door keypad; police say that earlier case has been referred to prosecutors, with reporting noting penalties under South Korea’s anti-stalking law.
