On September 1, Jungkook went live on his birthday to communicate with fans.
He began by saying, “I did several rounds of cardio today. I don’t have much energy right now,” before sharing, “I saw that there’s a staircase in Yongsan with my pictures on it. I thought about doing a live broadcast there, but I got a little scared, so I ended up doing it at home instead.”
The reason for his hesitation was a recent break-in at his residence.
Referring to the incident on August 30, when a woman in her 40s was caught by police after trespassing into his home, Jungkook said, “I was watching everything on CCTV. I heard the police arriving, and then I saw her rushing through the underground parking lot trying to open the door. Eventually, she opened it — and the police were standing right there. I witnessed the entire thing. She claimed she was my friend… (Sigh). I mean, ARMY is like family and friends to me, but it was just unfortunate. Of course, I’m so grateful for the support, but this was not it.”
Jungkook went on to issue a strong warning: “If you come, I’ll lock you in. All the evidence is secured, and you’ll be taken away. Everything is recorded. If you step into my parking lot, you won’t be able to get out unless I open the way. There’s CCTV everywhere. Unless you want to end up at the police station, never come in.”
The woman in her 40s, identified as A, had followed a vehicle into the parking garage late at night on August 30 and was caught by security staff, who then called the police. At the time of arrest, she reportedly rambled, saying she had entered because it was “a friend’s house.”
This was not the first such incident. Back in June, a Chinese woman was apprehended for attempting to break into Jungkook’s home by repeatedly pressing the door lock code at his front entrance. Yongsan Police later referred her without detention on charges of attempted trespassing.
