A Brazilian woman is sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for two years, for stalking BTS member Jung Kook and trespassing in South Korea, according to legal sources cited by multiple outlets. The Seoul Western District Court, under Judge Park Ji-won, finds that the woman repeatedly visited Jung Kook’s home and the surrounding area in Seoul’s Yongsan District between Dec. 7 and Dec. 28 last year, making 22 visits. The court says she rang the doorbell, waited near the residence, and left items at the property. Prosecutors also allege that on Dec. 13 she entered the residential compound through a side gate left open while a food delivery worker was coming and going. The reporting also states that she continued her behavior even after being arrested and released. Police issued an emergency order prohibiting her from approaching Jung Kook or his residence within 100 meters, but she allegedly returned on Jan. 4 and left photographs and printed materials at the address. One outlet further reports that she may face deportation from South Korea.
