U-Know Yunho of boy band TVXQ was confirmed positive with the coronavirus, according to his agency SM Entertainment Thursday.

“U-know Yunho was confirmed positive with Covid-19 through a PCR test he took before he headed to Japan for SMTown Live concert,” SM said. “He doesn’t have any particular symptoms but has halted all his schedules and is in quarantine, following the governmental measures."

Thus, the agency reported that only TVXQ’s Changmin will participate in the concert.

The concert “SMTown Live 2022 : SMCU Express @Tokyo” will be hosted at Tokyo Dome in Tokyo from Saturday to Monday.
