GOT7's BamBam is taking a short hiatus due to a staff member's positive COVID-19 test.

On April 13, his label Abyss Company announced, "One of the company's employees went to the hospital after experiencing cold symptoms and tested positive for COVID-19 on April 8. On the morning of April 9, the test was confirmed to be positive." Abyss Company assured fans everyone at the company was informed, and all staff as well as BamBam were pre-emptively tested for COVID-19.

Though he was confirmed negative on April 10, he'll be entering self-quarantine according to pandemic guidelines.
