On October 26, 2023, a viral video captured the moment when the fan approached the three idols during their private time. In the video, the fan can be seen approaching the idols while they were enjoying their time together. She asked for an autograph and tried to strike up a conversation. However, Jaehyun politely declined, saying, “We’re sorry, but we’re having our own time.”
Additionally, the fan shared another video, originally posted by other fans, where she touched the cups used by the idols and asked Jungkook to sing for her. As a result, she faced a wave of criticism from fellow fans, prompting her to clarify her side of the story.
According to koreaboo, the fan stated, “I heard that my video was spreading without permission, and false information was circulating. The guys weren’t with women, and we are just fans who support Jungkook. Additionally, the Korean girl in heels next to Cha Eun Woo is not our friend. We noticed her and her Korean friend. They also spotted the guys.” According to the fan, they did not intentionally follow the idols but coincidentally came across them.
She added, “To clarify, we did not stalk them. We were simply enjoying a girls’ night out when we noticed a group of people. We did not think much of it until we turned around and saw Jungkook. It took a few seconds to realize who he was, and then it hit us that it was actually Jungkook. If you don’t believe me, ask the restaurant owner for CCTV footage.”
The fan’s revelation aims to present her side of the story and emphasize that her intentions were not malicious. This incident has sparked intense discussion among fans and the wider K-Pop community, highlighting the challenges and responsibilities that come with being an idol fan in the digital age.
