Recently, the issue of invasion of privacy for кσяєαn celebrities has become a hot topic on forums and social media. There have been numerous cases where overzealous fans rang doorbells to harαѕѕ idols, even attempting to guess pαѕѕwords to gain access to their homes or unlawfully enter the idols’ residences.
Many of these incidents have had serious consequences, causing disruption in residential areas, property damage, and even personal injuries, prompting ρσℓι¢є intervention. Among BTS members, Jungkook has been a frequent target of such issues recently. Fortunately, since the 14th, both his management company and government authorities have taken strong measures to protect the idol’s privacy.
While those who harαѕѕed Jungkook at his home have been strongly condemned, the recent interactions between ARMYs and SUGA’s family dog, Holly, in real life have been warmly received. Why? Because this is a prime example of how fans can get close to idols without violating their privacy.
Recently, many videos and photos of Holly have circulated within the fandom community, sometimes featuring SUGA’s older brother accompanying the dog. In fan-shared posts, people have been able to play with Holly and even chat comfortably with SUGA’s brother.
The comment sections are filled with excited reactions from other fans who were thrilled to see Holly after a long period without updates, with comments like: "Holly. I miss Yoongi details <3", "I'm so happy to hear about him, we miss him dearly. Glad to see his family is doing so well", "Godd holly has grown so muchh. I dont even remember exactly how many years ago we saw her last", "Wow THE holly?? big celebrity siting!", "Omg my holly is getting old huh kid, stay healthy holly", "Omg Holly update. It's been so long", "Spotting Holly Before Yoongi but she's so pretty",...
This rare opportunity comes from the recent opening of a new restaurant in Hannam-dong, Seoul, called Chompi, run by SUGA’s older brother, Min Geum Jae. He often brings the family dog to the restaurant, allowing many lucky fans to meet Holly. Previously, Holly could only be seen through SUGA’s social media posts, which are rare, and direct interaction with the dog was virtually unimaginable.
According to many fans, all videos and photos of Holly were taken with SUGA’s brother’s permission. His approval and the fans’ respectful behavior have been widely praised within the community. This is exactly what fans want to see, rather than sneaky photos or videos of chaotic scenes of overzealous fans harαѕѕing idols at their homes.
Meanwhile, netizens have also shown great interest in the newly opened Chompi. The restaurant features a healthy dining concept, serving poke bowls, sandwiches, and coffee made from fresh ingre∂ιєnts. Its food has been highly rated for its delicious taste, reasonable prices, and generous portions. The interior is spacious, combining modern aesthetics with a cozy atmosphere.
Of course, a major bonus for ARMYs is the chance to meet Min Holly. Interacting with Holly has been a small but comforting experience for fans, especially since SUGA has not resumed regular activities. Many have shared that simply seeing the dog happily running around is enough to bring them joy and happiness.
On the other hand, fans are mindful that Chompi is a business owned by SUGA’s brother, not a fan meeting spot, so visitors are expected to focus on the restaurant’s services. If they have the chance to meet Min Holly, fans are advised to be patient, polite, and only approach the dog with the family’s permission.
