It said Zhang Hao has no symptoms other than a slight sore throat and based on the guidelines by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, he will be quarantined for up to five days from the test date to prevent the spread of infection.
“Zerobaseone members, except for Zhang Hao, currently do not have any special symptoms, but preemptively conducted a rapid antigen test and tested negative,” it said.
Due to Zhang Hao’s condition, the schedule of Zerobaseone has been changed.
“Considering the artist's health and safety as the top priority, we ask fans for your understanding for the changes,” the agency said.
The face-to-face fan signing events on Aug. 25, 26 and 27 will be held with eight members excluding Zhang Hao. The video call event on Aug. 26 will be postponed to a later date.
“We will do our best to support Zhang Hao so that he can recover his health as soon as possible,” it said.
However, fans urged Wake One to postpone the fan sign events until Zhang Hao has recovered.
Zerobaseone debuted last July with the album “Youth in the Shade.”
