"WINNER's Lee Seung-hoon was confirmed to have been infected with COVID-19 today," YG Entertainment said, adding the other three members ― Kang Seung-yoon, Kim Jin-woo and Song Min-ho ― have tested negative.
Lee first received a positive test result from a self-diagnosis kit Sunday, which was conducted preemptively ahead of his personal filming schedule, according to the agency. All band members have since immediately suspended their schedules and taken PCR tests, but only Lee has so far been confirmed to have the virus.
Lee is vaccinated and had no symptoms of being infected before testing positive, the agency said.
"We will spare no effort for Lee's rapid recovery, as well as the health and safety of our artists," YG said. "We will faithfully cooperate with the epidemiological survey by the quarantine authorities and take all necessary measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19." (Yonhap)
