Fantagio Entertainment released the following statement on September 20:

Hello, this is Fantagio.

On September 19, JinJin was diagnosed with COVID-19, and immediately afterward, Moonbin and Sanha, who crossed paths with him, underwent COVID-19 PCR tests.

Moonbin and Sanha received negative results on the morning of September 20, but because they came in close contact [with JinJin], their schedules were immediately cancelled and they went into self-quarantine following the guidelines of health authorities.

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

We will decide their future activities while faithfully following health guidelines, and we will do our best for the health and safety of all our artists.
