Jungkook shared the video on Wednesday. Speaking in Korean he said, "Everyone, I'm doing well. I've been moving my body to not feel droopy. Because I was afraid I'd gain weight since I ate and lied down, ate and lied down. Anyway, I'm taking good care of myself, so don't worry. See you soon."

After arriving in Las Vegas, he felt a slight discomfort in his throat and promptly took a rapid PCR test (COVID-19 molecular PCR test) and a standard PCR test (COVID-19 quantitative PCR test) on the afternoon of Sunday, March 27 (PT). While being under self-quarantine as a proactive measure, the result of both tests came back positive, and Jung Kook was confirmed with COVID-19 on Monday, March 28 (PT)."
