Brazilian Woman Booked Over BTS Jungkook Stalking Charges and Restraining Order Breach
A Brazilian woman has been booked over BTS Jungkook stalking charges in 2026 after violating a restraining order. Learn about the ongoing security issues facing BTS.
A 100-meter restraining order wasn't enough to stop a persistent intruder. A Brazilian woman in her 30s has been booked for repeatedly targeting the residence of BTS star Jungkook, raising serious alarms over celebrity safety.
Police Escalate BTS Jungkook Stalking Charges After Repeated Violations
According to the Yongsan Police Station on January 4, 2026, the suspect allegedly violated the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crime. She breached an emergency restraining order that strictly prohibited her from entering within 100 meters of Jungkook's home in Seoul's Yongsan Ward.
This isn't her first offense. Police had previously booked her last month after she made two uninvited visits to the artist's private residence. Despite the legal warnings and the active restraining order, her continued attempts to approach the star led to her recent booking.
Security Concerns Ahead of BTS March Comeback
The incident comes at a sensitive time as BTS is preparing for a highly anticipated full-group comeback this March after a nearly four-year hiatus. BigHit Music has consistently maintained a zero-tolerance policy regarding privacy violations, yet international stalking cases continue to pose a logistical challenge for security teams.
