The Buzz on Jungkook’s Hat Explored
It started last month when the seller posted the hat but deleted it soon after ARMYs condemned them over the sale. They also slammed them for putting a hefty price tag on an item they did not own. “When BTS members visited the Passport Division to create diplomatic passports, Jungkook left this bucket hat in the waiting area. After reporting the hat as lost property, we waited for six months, but there was no phone call or visit to acquire the hat. Therefore, the person who found the hat now has ownership,” the former staff explained. They turned themselves in after deleting the post.
