Since his discharge from military service in June this year, Jungkook has faced multiple incidents targeting his private residence in Itaewon. On the very day of his discharge, a Chinese woman appeared carrying a suitcase, stood outside his home for hours, and repeatedly attempted to gain entry by entering door access codes.

By August, the situation escalated when a кσяєαn woman went as far as illegally trespαѕѕing into the parking area of his residence, an incident that Jungkook personally witnessed. In a livestream shortly afterward, he visibly expressed exhaustion and pleaded with fans to stop such behavior, saying:  "One person... came to my house again. Don't come. Please. Please don't come. Got it?"

The legal outcomes for the two individuals involved were similar in nature but different in consequence: the Chinese woman received a non-prosecution disposition (prosecutorial discretion), while the кσяєαn woman who unlawfully entered the parking lot was referred to the prosecution in October on charges of trespαѕѕing and violation of the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes (anti-stalking law).

What is particularly alarming is that despite Jungkook’s public plea and the legal consequences imposed in these two cases, such behavior continued once again in November. This time, it involved a 50-year-old נαραиese sasaeng fan, who repeatedly targeted his residence over several days while he was abroad on a work schedule. As with previous incidents, however, the outcome ultimately followed the same path: she has recently faced ρσℓι¢є action for her disturbing conduct.

On the 22nd of this month, South кσяєαn media outlets collectively reported information released by the Yongsan Police Station in Seoul, stating that on the 16th, the ρσℓι¢є formally booked a נαραиese woman in her 50s (identified as “A”) without detention, converting the case from an internal inquiry into a full criminal investigation. She had previously been under preliminary review on suspicion of attempted unlawful trespαѕѕ.

It was confirmed that Jungkook’s legal representative filed the criminal complaint, and ρσℓι¢є summoned the complainant to conduct a formal statement. Furthermore, at the request of the complainant, investigators additionally applied charges under the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes, pursuing a parallel investigation.

According to ρσℓι¢є findings, Ms. A is accused of repeatedly pressing the electronic door lock at the entrance of Jungkook’s residence in Yongsan District, Seoul, between the 12th and 14th of last month, with the intent to unlawfully enter the premises. The incident was officially reported to ρσℓι¢є on the 14th. However, as Ms. A is currently not residing in South кσяєα, a suspect interrogation has not yet taken place. A ρσℓι¢є official stated, “The investigation will proceed once Ms. A re-enters South кσяєα.”

Meanwhile, based on ρσℓι¢є descriptions, A has been identified as a notorious נαραиese sasaeng fan known as Chidori. She has long displayed delusional behavior, publicly claiming to be “Jungkook’s wife” and openly expressing this belief online for years. Her delusions escalated into severe obsession, resulting in actions such as stalking Jungkook near KBS in 2020 and falsifying personal information to request access to him at a military training center during his enlistment.

The most infamous incident—after her identity became widely known—occurred in 2023, when she suddenly approached Jungkook and grabbed his hand at an airport. Since that year, she has also been frequently monitoring and loitering around his former apartment.

In the most recent case that led to Chidori being criminally booked, ARMYs themselves played a crucial role in prompting HYBE and the local ρσℓι¢є to take decisive action to protect Jungkook. Fans had monitored her behavior for days and documented that from the 8th to the 12th, she livestreamed herself continuously ringing the doorbell and shouting outside Jungkook’s gate. She then escalated to systematically entering different access codes into the gate lock, recording them in a notebook, seemingly attempting to identify the correct pαѕѕword to break in. She also reportedly αѕѕaulted pαѕѕersby who tried to stop her from camping outside the property.

On the 14th, following repeated reports from ARMYs to the Yongsan Police Station and HYBE, Chidori was ordered to leave the neighborhood and deported from South кσяєα, while security around Jungkook’s residence was significantly reinforced. Her X (formerly Twitter) account, @ChiDoRiJungKook, was also suspended.

However, just weeks after being expelled from кσяєα, Chidori showed no intention of stopping or expressing remorse, despite the legal consequences. In late November, she created a new X account under the username @ChidoriYakumo, where she resumed livestreaming, obsessively referencing Jungkook, and posting harmful content. She also explicitly stated her intention to return to кσяєα, raising serious concerns that she may violate his privacy once again.

This time, upon immediately recognizing her renewed intentions, fans mαѕѕ-reported the new account and sent messages to HYBE / BigHit Music / the Yongsan Police Station, stating: “Please do not ignore the stalker who is obsessively targeting Jungkook any longer. We request that the Yongsan Police Station continue the investigation without interruption and take the necessary measures to put an end to these criminal acts.”

Fortunately, HYBE finally responded, pursuing strict legal action without leniency and moving to bring Chidori before the court. This time, she will not only face punishment for stalking and illegal trespαѕѕ in recent months, but the case may also bring an end to her five-year-long obsessive pursuit of Jungkook.
This incident underscores the urgent need for a strong judicial ruling to serve as a deterrent against others with malicious intent.
