Jungkook requests fans not to send him food, BTS ARMY says 'Leave him alone'

BTS member Jungkook said he will take action if fans continued to send him food

BTS member Jungkook took to Weverse on Thursday to put forth a heartfelt request to his fans. The youngest member of the K-pop superband addressed fans who have been sending food to his residence in Seoul, South Korea. The singer told fans he won't eat the food even if they send, and requested them to stop doing this. He also said he will take action if the fans still continued to send him food.

In his Weverse post, Jungkook wrote in Korean, "Please don't send food delivery to my house. Even if you send it, I won't eat it. I'm thankful for the thought but since I eat well by myself you (the sender) can buy and eat it. I'm requesting. If you send once more, I will track the order number on the receipt that you…"

BTS' dedicated fandom, the ARMY, quickly came to Jungkook's defence, asking other crazed fans of the idol to stop invading his privacy in this manner. Twitter was flooded with fans saying "Leave him alone" with hashtags like #ProtectJungkook.
