Overview
- A Seoul court on Tuesday, June 23, 2026 convicted an unnamed Brazilian woman of harassment and issued a one-year prison sentence that was suspended, citing an extreme level of obsession.
- The incidents began on December 7, 2025 when she first visited Jungkook's Seoul residence and over the following weeks she returned about 20 times, leaving letters and photos, throwing objects over a wall, and once ringing the doorbell 133 times.
- She was arrested on December 13 after trying to enter the property during a food delivery, was released the next day with orders to stay away, and was later subject to a 100‑metre exclusion order before prosecutors took the case in February.
- Alongside the suspended jail term the woman now faces likely deportation unless an appeal overturns the conviction, illustrating how immigration measures can follow criminal enforcement in cases involving foreign nationals.
- The case underscores tensions in K-pop culture over idols' privacy and dating norms and shows South Korean authorities using criminal charges, restraining orders and immigration steps to respond to persistent fan harassment.
