BLACKPINK member Rosé has tested positive for COVID-19.

Her agency YG Entertainment confirmed the news on February 28.

The other three members of BLACKPINK: Jennie, Jisoo, and Lisa, have tested negative.

The press statement read, "This is YG Entertainment.

"BLACKPINK's Rosé's took a PCR test before her [overseas] departure on February 28, and the results came back positive, leading to a cancellation of a part of her overseas activities," YG Entertainment stated.

"The other three members (Jisoo, Jennie, and Lisa) tested negative, and no one, including Rosé who was diagnosed with COVID-19, is exhibiting any particular symptoms.

"All four members of BLACKPINK have completed their COVID-19 vaccination, and we will prioritize the health of our artists and staff members and spare no effort [for their well-being].

"We would appreciate it if you could show support for Rosé's rapid recovery as well as the BLACKPINK members who are active globally. We will provide an update if there are any changes in the future. Rose tested positive in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) examination ahead of her departure for an overseas trip today,” YG Entertainment stated.

"Including Rosé, all members present no special symptoms of the disease,” YG Entertainment added. “All four completed COVID-19 vaccination.”

Rosé was tested for COVID-19 prior to her trip to France for the Paris Fashion Week (PFW) 2022. She was supposed to attend the event with co-member Jisoo, but had to cancel because of her diagnosis. Jisoo is currently already in Paris for the event.

In November 2021, Lisa contracted COVID-19 and fully recovered in early December.
