BTS Member Faces Break-In Incident After Military Service Release

A BTS member encounters a security scare just hours after ending military duty as fans celebrate their return.


A woman has been apprehended for attempting to break into Jungkook's residence shortly after he completed his mandatory military service. The incident occurred in Seoul, where the Chinese woman in her 30s was seen entering random codes on a lock outside the singer's home, leading to her arrest on charges of trespassing. She admitted to traveling to South Korea to connect with the star, which signals extreme dedication among K-pop fans.

This event unfolded amidst the excitement surrounding the discharge of Jungkook and three other BTS members, who all completed their military obligations this week. The group's anticipated return has sparked celebration among fans, with hundreds gathering outside their agency, Hybe, dressed in BTS's signature purple and carrying memorabilia. Jungkook expressed gratitude to the fans for their support, humorously noting his lack of preparation for the public appearance after being away for so long.

In South Korea, military service is compulsory for all able-bodied men, inciting debates on whether influential figures like BTS should be exempt due to their significant contributions to the economy. Although past deferrals were granted, the entire group is set to be discharged by the end of this month, fueling hopes for a reunion and new music from the global K-pop phenomenon that went on hiatus in 2022.

BTS members have consistently rallied support from their fanbase throughout their military service, and the conclusion of this chapter creates waves of excitement for fans and the music industry alike, as they await further announcements from Hybe and their favorite artists.
