Having passed out on stage on Thursday, K-pop girl group Girl’s Day member Hyeri is recovering very well, the band’s management agency said Friday.

The 20-year-old fainted while performing on cable music channel Mnet’s music show “M! CountDown” on Thursday evening. She was immediately carried off the stage by her manager and taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.

“She is now okay,” said a spokesman for the Dream T Entertainment. “Hyeri has got the flu. She is now resting after an immediate visit to the hospital. Fortunately, she will be able to carry on her schedule.”

Girls’ Day’s sexy tune “Something,” released on Jan. 3, most recently hit No. 1 on MelOn’s real-time chart for the first time. Making its debut in 2010, the band released its digital single “Let’s Go” in October.
