A BTS<\/a> fan who rung the doorbell of the band\u2019s Jungkook<\/a> 133 times has been told they may face deportation after the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Brazilian woman, who has not been identified, received a suspended prison term for repeatedly visiting Jungkook\u2019s house despite warnings to stay away.<\/p>\n

The woman first started stalking Jungkook in December 2025 and tried to leave letters and photographs at his doorstop \u201cout of love\u201d, she claimed.<\/p>\n

This week, a district court in Seoul sentenced the woman to one year in prison, suspended for two years. The woman is also expected to be deported from South Korea. This could be overturned if she successfully appeals the verdict.<\/p>\n

The woman is said to have first visited the star\u2019s property in December last year, where, according to court documents, she loitered before throwing items over the wall and letters through gaps in the door (as per BBC<\/a>).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Just days later, she visited again where she is said to have rung the doorbell 133 times, which the court said showed an \u201cextreme level of obsession\u201d.<\/p>\n

The woman was then arrested on December 13 after following a food delivery worker to enter the property through a side gate. The woman was released the next day following a warning to not visit the property again.<\/p>\n

However, this was ignored and further visits continued, something that led police to issue an emergency order that banned her from coming within a hundred metres of the property. In total, the woman is alleged to have visited the property 22 times.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When that also failed, police referred her to prosecutors this February.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In other BTS news, the band returned to Busan earlier this month for a two-night stadium concert celebrating their debut anniversary week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The group hosted \u2018BTS World Tour \u2018Arirang\u2019 In Busan\u2019 at the Busan Asiad Main Stadium in back-to-back performances on Friday and Saturday night (June 12 and 13), marking their first performance in Busan in more than three years.<\/p>\n

Following their 2022 concert \u2018Yet to Come in BUSAN\u2019, the two concerts this weekend held deep emotional weight for the group, given they were held in the last venue they performed in before mandatory military service forced them into a temporary hiatus<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As well as that, the second night coincided with their official debut anniversary on June 13, something they celebrated with a massive audience of over 110,000 over the two-night run in Busan.<\/p>\n

The homecoming performances come after the band played over 20 shows across seven cities, since the launch of their tour in April, and saw the world premiere of \u2018NORMAL (Korean Ver.)\u2019, the Korean rendition of the original track heard on their latest chart-topping album \u2018ARIRANG\u2019.<\/p>\n

The setlist saw them sail through tracks inspired by the city with \u2018Paldogangsan\u2019 and \u2018Ma City\u2019 played on the first day, which was followed by tracks like \u2018Ddaeng\u2019, \u2018Dimple\u2019 and \u2018Magic Shop\u2019 on the second night.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, BTS kicked off their huge 2026 and 2027 world tour at<\/a> Goyang Stadium in South Korea, and broke out tracks from \u2018ARIRANG\u2019 for the first time<\/a>. That gig saw them debut \u2018Body to Body\u2019, \u2018Hooligan\u2019, \u20182.0\u2019, and \u2018Like Animals\u2019, with RM performing seated for much of the set after spraining his ankle<\/a> in rehearsals.<\/p>\n

NME caught the show <\/a>with Rhian Daly writing: \u201cThroughout, it\u2019s clear that they\u2019re still as committed to BTS as before their enforced break for military service, RM referring to decisions they\u2019ve made so they \u201ccan keep doing this for a long time\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a sentiment that makes the fireworks-heavy final song, \u2018Into The Sun\u2019, feel beautifully optimistic \u2013 this might be the end of the show, but BTS\u2019 moment in the sun is far from over.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The current run of shows are the first tour dates from the K-Pop giants in three years and will see them cover 34 regions with 79 live shows, marking their biggest tour yet. Before kicking off, they held a free concert in Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul<\/a>, which was livestreamed to over 190 countries on Netflix and welcomed roughly 104,000 fans \u2013 breaking the record for the largest-ever public concert in South Korea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are currently only two UK dates on the group\u2019s 2026\/27 itinerary, taking place in London on July 6 and 7, 2026.<\/p>\n

Other dates include more slots in North America, Asia and Australia, set for later in 2026 and early 2027. Find all ticket information here,<\/a> UK tickets here<\/a>, and international tickets here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2018ARIRANG\u2019 was given a four-star review from NME,<\/a> which read: \u201cMuch of \u2018ARIRANG\u2019 negotiates polar ideas \u2013 BTS as heroes or normal people, the buzz of the spotlight and the hush of their private worlds, longing for the euphoric parts of life to continue versus wanting to get off of the ride.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since it dropped, BTS have unveiled a surprise hidden \u2018ARIRANG\u2018 track<\/a>, and NME has created what it considers to be the \u201cdream BTS setlist\u201d.
