A Chinese woman in her 30s was caught attempting to break into BTS member Jungkook’s residence on the very day he completed his military service.

According to police on Thursday, the Yongsan Police Station in Seoul apprehended the woman on Wednesday night on charges of attempted housebreaking.

At approximately 11:20 p.m. on June 11, she was found repeatedly trying to enter the door code of Jungkook’s apartment in Yongsan District. Police responded after a local resident reported the suspicious activity.

The woman reportedly told officers that she had traveled to Korea to see Jungkook upon his discharge from the military. Authorities continue to investigate the exact circumstances of the incident.

Jungkook was discharged on Wednesday after completing his 18-month mandatory military service in the Army, which he began in December 2023.
