“Can’t believe he’s still dealing with this”- Fans react as BTS’ Jungkook requests fans to stop visiting and sending deliveries to his new house

During his surprise Weverse live on December 19, 2024, at midnight KST, Jungkook of BTS took the opportunity to address an important issue. While he delighted fans with the announcement of moving into a new house, he also made a sincere request for fans to respect his privacy.

The star explicitly asked fans not to attempt to find his new address or send anything to his home. He explained that in the past, fans had sent items like gifts, food, and letters to his address, which he found unacceptable. This is not the first time he has raised the issue as Jungkook had previously addressed it during another Weverse live, urging fans to refrain from sending items directly to his residence.

Now that he has moved, he felt it was necessary to reiterate his boundaries. He emphasized that if fans truly wish to send something, they should stick to letters only and send them to the HYBE office.

Fans have since been reflecting on the importance of respecting an artist's personal space and have appreciated the BTS member's direct yet thoughtful approach to addressing the matter.

“Respect JK's privacy. Let the man be.” A fan said.

“I hope they listen to him and respect his wishes!!!!” A fan exclaimed.

“Please leave him alone,” another fan exclaimed.

Some other fans expressed,

“Y’all better listen to him this time,” another fan said.

“Y’ALL HEARD HIM LOUD AND CLEAR,” a fan stated.

“Listen to him. It is so not hard to not be a creep.” A fan remarked.

BTS' Jungkook addresses a potential breach of privacy on Weverse

Sasaeng fans are often known for their obsessive behavior towards Korean celebrities, crossing personal boundaries in ways that can intrude on the lives of these public figures. One common practice is sending unsolicited gifts to celebrities’ home addresses without consent.

While some celebrities may initially accept these gifts out of politeness, such actions often prompt them to publicly address the matter due to the discomfort and complications it brings.

BTS’ Jungkook first tackled this issue in December 2023 when he expressed his gratitude for the gestures but firmly requested fans to stop sending gifts to his home. He revealed how persistent this behavior had become and emphasized that, despite his appreciation, it was an intrusion he could no longer tolerate. Fans were left saddened and angered, both by the breach of his privacy and by the fact that the situation had escalated to the point where he had to publicly address it.

This issue resurfaced during his recent Weverse live on December 19, 2024, when he revealed that he had moved into a new home. Taking the opportunity, he respectfully and politely requested fans not to send any gifts to his new address. He also shared that some fans had been sending deliveries to his military base during his enlistment, a revelation that further enraged many fans.

During the live, Jungkook addressed the matter directly:

“I moved my house so it'd be great if anyone didn't come looking for my house... also the deliveries (gifts) you guys leave, I'm really thankful, but I can't receive them. There’s a lot of deliveries being sent (to the military base) as well, and I can’t receive them either. If you really want to send me a letter, you can send it to the company.”

Jungkook’s tone remained polite and sincere, demonstrating his appreciation for his fans’ love while firmly establishing boundaries. Fans admired his respectful approach to the situation, as well as his generosity in sharing the truth about how such actions affect him.

This unexpected Weverse live, otherwise, became one of the highlights of the year for ARMYs. Jungkook’s mention of taking leave and obtaining permission to connect with fans through the livestream showcased his desire to maintain a close relationship with them, even during his military service.
