While the BTS ARMY is known for going to lengths for their favourite Korean boy band, a couple of Pakistani fans took it a notch higher by fleeing their house and going 'missing', only to be found later, sneaking to South Korea.

As per a report in Zoom, two minor girls, aged 13 and 14, fled from their homes in Pakistan's Karachi last week, leaving their families worried. Local cops began a hunt for the teenagers after their families filed a missing and kidnapping report.

They were later found more than 1200 km away from their homes in Lahore.
