SEOUL, August 31 (AJP) - A woman who broke into K-pop juggernaut BTS' member Jungkook's home was arrested, police said on Sunday.

The woman in her 40s, was booked on charges of trespassing in the parking lot of Jungkook's home in Seoul's posh district of Yongsan around 11:20 p.m. on Saturday, according to police.

She was spotted by a security guard who found her behavior suspicious and reported her to the police. She reportedly said, "I entered because it was a friend's house."

Police are questioning her about her motives.

It is not the first time a stranger has attempted to intrude into the K-pop star's home.

Earlier in June, a woman in her 30s from China was arrested for a similar incident after she was caught repeatedly trying to open a door lock at Jungkook's residence. She reportedly told police at the time that she came to Seoul to see Jungkook, who had just been discharged from his 18 months of mandatory military service.
