After wrapping up several promotional activities in the States, he was spotted at Incheon International Airport on July 24, dressed in a striking all-black baggy outfit. Nothing screams Jungkook more than black, baggy and oversized! Fans always line up at airports and in the waiting areas outside whenever BTS return to South Korea after completed their international schedules. This time too, as Jungkook made his way through the airport, a multitude of fans waited to greet him.
However, the singer's departure from the airport quickly escalated when a throng of fans attempted to follow him, leaping over barriers despite his polite attempts to dissuade them. A particular incident caused alarm when a photographer almost stumbled onto Jungkook while attempting to get a close shot. Despite the commotion, his security guards ensured that he safely reached his car. This incident sparked online discussions, with fans voicing concerns about how such a situation might have startled Jungkook. ARMYs also talked about how Jungkook was trying to engage with fans with handshakes and waves, but this had caused some to cross a boundary, quite literally.

This mobbing also led to Jungkook tripping and falling nearly twice, which has also raised outrage from fans.
Regrettably, this isn't the first time Jungkook has had to face such a predicament. Earlier, on July 12, while the BTS star was departing for the United States, a sasaeng fan (an obsessive fan who stalks or invades the privacy of an idol) dangerously approached him. While Jungkook was engaging with fans and media, his security team was alert to the situation and swiftly pulled the intruding fan away from him.
Fans were quick to commend the bodyguards' swift actions and their dedication to Jungkook's safety. However, these recurring incidents have left the BTS fandom and netizens at large disturbed, as they continue to express worries about Jungkook's security in public places.
Jungkook released 'Seven' on July 14 and performed at the Good Morning America Summer Concert Series in New York. He also appeared on other forms like the BBC Live Lounge and BBC 'The One' show.
