Sharing the news about his diagnosis in a statement on Weverse, Big Hit Music said, “After arriving in Las Vegas, he felt a slight discomfort in his throat and promptly took a rapid PCR test (COVID-19 molecular PCR test) and a standard PCR test (COVID-19 quantitative PCR test) on the afternoon of Sunday, March 27 (PT). While being under self-quarantine as a proactive measure, the result of both tests came back positive, and Jung Kook was confirmed with COVID-19 on Monday, March 28 (PT).”
“Jung Kook has been currently under self-quarantine and treatment, following the guidelines of health authorities in the United States. He is not exhibiting any symptoms other than a mild sore throat, and we will attentively monitor his health during the quarantine. Jung Kook’s participation in the later schedule in the United States will be determined by the local regulations on COVID-19, while we are actively in discussion with the awards organizer,” the agency added.
Jungkook had travelled to the US before his fellow members. On Monday, RM, Jin, Suga, Jimin and V were spotted at the Incheon International Airport in South Korea to board the flight. Meanwhile, J-Hope is said to join the group after he tests negative for Covid-19.
