Hello.
This is IZ*ONE’s joint management, Off The Record and Swings Entertainment. Due to the recent sudden rise in coronavirus cases in the industry, we have decided to send all members and staff for scheduled coronavirus tests on 7 December 2020, as a preventive measure to ensure the artists’ health and safety. Hence, we will be canceling the scheduled broadcast on NAVER NOW for PANORAMA IZ*ONE as well.
Although we have not received any orders from the health authorities to go for tests, neither have any symptoms been shown, in order to do our best to prioritize the safety of our artists and staff, we have decided to take this pre-emptive step proactively. We will further release accurate news of the results as soon as possible.
We ask for the benevolent understanding of WIZ*ONE and we will do our best in the future as well, for the health and safety of our agency artists.
Thank you.
