According to their management agency, three members of the K-pop group BTS have been infected with the coronavirus after returning from a trip overseas.

The Big Hit Music agency revealed in a statement that RM and Jin were diagnosed with COVID-19 on Saturday evening. Another member, Suga, had tested positive for the illness on Friday, according to the report.

According to the agency, RM has shown no symptoms, while Jin is experiencing moderate symptoms such as a light temperature and is self-treating at home. Suga was not experiencing symptoms, according to the agency, and was conducting self-care at home following health officials' standards.

After returning from his personal schedule in the United States earlier this month, RM tested negative. However, before his anticipated release from self-quarantine, he was diagnosed with the virus, according to the agency.
