On July 14, Cube Entertainment announced that the idol had undergone testing for COVID-19 after his vocal teacher tested positive for the virus. Minhyuk’s results came back negative, but in accordance with government guidelines, the idol still went into self-quarantine as a precautionary measure.

On July 17, Cube Entertainment shared that Minhyuk was diagnosed with COVID-19.

Here is the agency’s official statement:

Hello, this is Cube Entertainment.

BTOB’s Minhyuk tested positive for COVID-19 today (July 17).

Previously, Minhyuk underwent preemptive testing after his vocal teacher was confirmed with the virus. His results for both the rapid antigen test and PCR test came back negative, and he went into self-quarantine.

Although he tested negative initially in both tests (rapid antigen test and PCR test), he visited the health center on July 16 after showing signs of coughs and a fever and tested positive for COVID-19 today (July 17).

In response, Minhyuk is taking necessary measures and getting rest in accordance with the quarantine guidelines of the health authorities, and we will do our best so that he recovers quickly.

Once again, we apologize for causing concern to many people.

We will follow health guidelines and do our utmost to ensure our artists’ health and safety.
