Jisoo, a member of K-pop girl group Lovelyz, has tested positive for COVID-19, according to her record label, Woollim Entertainment, Wednesday.

The company said in a statement that Jisoo, 27, was tested for COVID-19 after being told on Monday that she came into contact with a person who had contracted the virus.

"The result came out Tuesday and Jisoo tested positive," Woollim said. "She is currently in self-isolation adhering to quarantine guidelines."

All other Lovelyz members ― Baby Soul, Jiae, Mijoo, Kei, Jin, Sujeong and Yein ― tested negative after taking the test on Tuesday afternoon. However, the septet and their staff members will have to quarantine themselves until July 4.

"We apologize for fueling worries," Woollim said. "We will put the safety of our artists and employees first and take follow-up steps based on the guidelines provided by health authorities."

Jisoo debuted as a Lovelyz member in 2014 with the album, "Girls' Invasion." As part of the group, she released a string of hits, including, "Ah-Choo" (2015) and "Destiny" (2016). The eight-piece act dropped its seventh mini-album, "Unforgettable," last September and grabbed the top spots on multiple streaming charts with the lead single, "Obliviate."

this virus is horrible. you can be infected and have no idea because you feel nothing, and then you can be responsible for a large number of people get infected.

It is. && so many people are still unvaccinated. An entire church in my area, over 20+ ppl including children, all tested positive bc of 1 member. Its sad

It's awful. My boyfriend got just by simply going to the hotel he works on. A customer did not tell anyone he had the virus, and since he was a VIP and my bf is a manager he had direct contact with him.
I wanted to kill that customer, you have no idea. My bf was in urgent care for almost 2 months and I almost lost it

That's awful. That customer was so selfish.

How is your bf doing now?

That customer was hell, but my bfs boss cared more about the customer than my boyfriends health. He basically said "I can replace you, I can't replace a rich man"
This is why I wanted to punch his boss in the face.

He's great now. Thankfully he had 0 consequences and is fine and dandy. But it was hell. It was one of the worst times in our lives
