"Hello.
Seohyun was diagnosed with COVID-19 today (August 9).
Therefore, Seohyun immediately halted all of her scheduled activities and is currently getting treatment and rest, and Girls' Generation's music show promotions that were scheduled for this week ("M Countdown," "Inkigayo") have unavoidably been canceled. We ask for fans' understanding.
Thank you"
Seohyun also took to her Instagram account to pacify her worried fans.
"SONE, who must have waited for our promotions more longingly than anyone... and my unnies... I'm sorry. I was healthy, so I didn't think I'd get [COVID-19]... but in the end, I wound up catching it. I'm really so disappointed and feel so sorry... I'll recover quickly, so let's meet in good health on the day of next week's music show!"

i hope with that being said, seohyun won’t blame herself. her health comes first. the girls’ health come first. we should be giving seohyun & the girls encouragement words instead. hopefully she gets better soon ☹️
