IZ*ONE has announced that they will be cancelling their December 7 'NAVER Now' broadcast to be tested for COVID-19.

On December 7 KST, their co-managing agencies Off the Record and Swing Entertainment released a joint statement on behalf of the group. In the statement, they acknowledged the sudden spread of COVID-19 occuring within the industry. As a precautionary safety move, it was decided that the IZ*ONE members and their staff would also go in for COVID-19 testing.

The agencies mentioned that none of the IZ*ONE members are currently experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, and the testing is a voluntary health measure to ensure the safety of both the artists and staff. They then added that they would be notifying fans of the results and whether or not the schedule would once again need to be adjusted.

Frankly i feel all those who attended MAMA 2020 should just take a test just for assurance. the only problem is if you JUST got in contact with someone with Covid-19, and take a test 1 day after, the amount of virus in your body may not be "high enough" to turn positive. and so it may be negative at first, then after 5 days then it will turn positive if you take it again later.

so a better way, is to quarantinee for 5 days or 7 days.. than take the test on the 5th ot 6th day, and if negative then its an "all clear" but with Seoul at Level 2.5 restrictions now i feel a lot of year end awards and online concerts also may be impacted and some agencies may not want to send their artiste to attend any such events.
