5 Enhypen Members Test Positive For COVID

They are currently undergoing self-quarantine and isolation.

The group's agency, BELIFT LAB, announced on September 2 that members Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, and Sunghoon tested positive for COVID-19 while currently experiencing self-quarantine after coming into close contact with a positive case.

Following the confirmation of a COVID-19 case on a production site, ENHYPEN entered into preventative self-quarantine on Thursday, August 26, and was classified by government authorities as requiring self-quarantine due to close contact on Friday, August 27.

Jake began experiencing symptoms such as coughing and a fever during his self-quarantine on Sunday, August 29, and after reporting his signs to the local government health center, he underwent PCR testing. On the morning of Monday, August 30, he tested positive for COVID-19. Following that, members Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, and Sunghoon began exhibiting similar symptoms on Monday, and PCR testing confirmed their positive COVID-19 diagnoses.

The necessary measures, including assignment and relocation to treatment facilities, are being implemented in accordance with health authorities' instructions; the members are currently exhibiting minor symptoms.

Following the COVID-19 case on site on Wednesday, August 25, all those present, including the artists, were subjected to PCR testing, were found to be negative, and were placed in self-quarantine; as a result, the possibility of further spread is low. All artists and staff undergoing self-quarantine self-tested twice a day, were closely monitored for health, and PCR testing was performed as soon as any symptoms appeared.

The company also apologized to fans for causing them concern and stated that they will provide full support to the members and staff. They will also continue to follow government guidelines to ensure everyone's safety.

They have already canceled their participation in the upcoming KCON:TACT in September as a result of this. They are also scheduled to return in September, but no details have been released by the company.

We wish all of the members and staff a speedy recovery and that they remain safe!
