On September 21, the infamous Josh, Nayeon's staler, revealed that he entered Korea once again after going back to his country in Germany due to the pandemic.
On his YouTube channel, he uploaded a video with the title, "Happy Birthday, Nayeon." In particular, the two-minute clip contains his birthday greetings to the idol who is celebrating her birthday today, September 22.
In the released video, the stalker said in both English and Korean:
"Happy birthday. I love you with all my heart and wish you a very happy birthday today."
He then revealed a surprising fact, saying:
"I finally came back to Korea to surprise you. I thought this was the best time for me to come back to Korea to make you happy because I can't wait in Germany anymore."
He also hinted at his plans during his stay, which includes giving Nayeon two small birthday gifts.
"I brought two small birthday gifts, and I'm looking for a way to give them to you. If you have anything you want to know or wish from me, please send me a message."

Josh
This is not the first time that the German sasaeng (obsessed fan) tried to reach out to Nayeon. Aside from leaving her video messages, he crossed the line between a fan and an idol when he started stalking the "POP!" singer at her dorm, riding the same plane as her and even trying to get close not only to her but as well as other members.
The stalker has been continuously stalking Nayeon due to the delusion that he is dating the female star in real life. In fact, he boarded a plane returning from an overseas schedule in January 2020 and attempted to approach Nayeon, causing a disturbance on board.
On top of that, he threatened to k*lling Nayeon if he found out that she is dating someone that's not him.

Following these, ONCEs (TWICE fandom) demanded JYP Entertainment protect Nayeon from Josh, and in response, the agency filed a criminal complaint against the stalker for obstruction of business (Article 314 of the Criminal Code) and filed an injunction with the Seoul Central District Court to prohibit access.
However, the result didn't become favorable to Nayeon as it was reported that the ban was temporarily lifted because Josh went back to his country and also showed remorse.
Now that he's back, fans are urging JYP Entertainment to strengthen security for TWICE, especially for Nayeon.
