On the 27th, KBS announced that Gangnam Police Station in Seoul is investigating a woman in her 30s on suspicion of violating the stalking punishment law.
This woman is accused of stalking V, including riding him in the elevator at his home around 6:30 the previous evening and delivering his marriage certificate.
At the time of the crime, this woman was waiting in front of V’s home, and when he entered the apartment parking lot in his car, she followed him.

Previously, BTS members have expressed their grievances about sasaeng fans following them several times.
In 2019, V opened up about his struggles with sasaeng fans. He said below:
“We want to get on a plane too. But there are people who know we’re getting on and sit around us. It was very uncomfortable because we couldn’t relax in a private space. I hope they don’t do that. It’s really scary.”
