NCT's Jisung Halts All Activities After Testing Positive For COVID-19

NCT’s Jisung has been diagnosed with COVID-19.

On April 30, SM Entertainment officially announced that Jisung had tested positive for the virus and had therefore temporarily halted all activities.

Jisung is currently suffering from a mild sore throat, but has no other symptoms, and the other members of NCT DREAM have all tested negative using rapid antigen tests.

Notably, Jisung is the only member of NCT to test positive for COVID-19 thus far—up until yesterday, not a single one of the group’s 23 members had ever been diagnosed with the virus.

SM Entertainment’s full statement is as follows:

Hello, this is SM Entertainment.

NCT’s Jisung was diagnosed with COVID-19 on April 29.

Jisung previously received three doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, and he does not have any particular symptoms aside from a mild sore throat. He has currently halted all scheduled activities and is undergoing treatment in self-isolation at home in accordance with the guidelines of government health authorities.

The [remaining] NCT DREAM members used rapid antigen tests as a precautionary measure, and all of their test results came back negative.

Our agency will continue to adhere strictly to the guidelines of health authorities, and we will consider our artist’s health our top priority and do our utmost to help him focus entirely on recovering. Thank you.

Wishing Jisung a speedy recovery!
