AKP STAFF


On March 6, fromis_9's agency PLEDIS Entertainment released a statement regarding members Jang Gyu Ri and Lee Sae Rom testing positive for COVID-19. 

The two members initially tested positive on the self-test kit on March 5 as a preemptive measure for their activities. After testing on the self-test kit, they promptly went for a PCR test, which confirms their contraction of COVID-19 on March 6. Both members are only showing some mild symptoms.

They will be quarantining at home while receiving treatment from there. While all the other members have tested negative, Gyu Ri and Sae Rom will be postponing their participation in fromis_9's scheduled activities till further notice. 


The full statement reads:

"Hello.
This is PLEDIS Entertainment.

We would like to provide you with some information on fromis_9 members Lee Saerom and Jang Gyuri being diagnosed with COVID-19 as well as adjustments in their activities.

Lee Saerom and Jang Gyuri took a self-test as a proactive measure and tested positive on the self-test kit on Saturday, March 5. They promptly took a PCR test and were confirmed with COVID-19 on Sunday, March 6. Lee Saerom is currently not exhibiting symptoms other than a cough and a sore throat, and Jang Gyuri is also not exhibiting any symptoms other than a sore throat. They are both administering self-treatment at home.

All fromis_9 members other than Lee Seoyeon and Lee Chaeyoung all preemptively underwent self-tests on Saturday, the 5th, which all the results came back as negative and are not exhibiting any symptoms.

Therefore, it would be difficult for Lee Saerom and Jang Gyuri to take part in fromis_9’s activities for a while. We will provide you with updates on their activity resumption.

We will continue to provide support for the rapid recovery of Lee Saerom and Jang Gyuri, placing our highest priority on the health and safety of our artists. We will also continue to fully cooperate with the requests and guidelines of healthcare authorities.

Thank you.
"

Wishing a speedy recovery for Gyu Ri and Sae Rom.

Hope Romsae and Gyul recover soon! Frankly it seems like just a matter of time before the others test positive if they’ve all been staying together/ having activities
