BTS' Jungkook targeted in $5.76M stock fraud
BTS' Jungkook fell victim to financial fraud while serving in the military. A hacker stole HYBE shares worth 8.44 billion KRW ($5.76 million) from the Bangtan Boy's account on January 6, 2024. According to reports, the hacker set up three securities accounts under the BTS member's name.
They illegally moved 33,500 HYBE shares from his account without permission. Out of these, 500 were sold, while the remaining 33,000 were still worth about 8.316 billion KRW. The fraud was discovered later, leading to legal action from the Seven singer's team. In February 2025, the Seoul Western District Court ruled in his favor, declaring the transaction invalid and ordering the stocks to be returned.
"There was no transfer contract for the shares, and Jungkook cannot have been a victim of identity theft," and "The third party must return the shares to Jungkook," the court ruled (reported by Biz Hankuk).
BigHit Music has since tightened security to prevent further breaches. The company confirmed that immediate action was taken once the fraud was detected. Payments to the fraudulent account were blocked, and efforts began to recover the 27-year-old's assets.
"As soon as the company and the artist became aware of the criminal act, we immediately took measures to stop payments to the account and restore it to its original state, thereby preventing any actual damage," BigHit Music stated (via Biz Hankuk).
The South Korean conglomerate also took steps to improve security for Jungkook's personal and device information, aiming to prevent such incidents from happening again.
BTS' Jungkook began his mandatory military service on December 12, 2023, and is set to be discharged on June 11, 2025.
