Actress Song Ji-hyo went into self-quarantine for 10 days after testing negative for COVID-19. This is because Song Ji-hyo, who has an allergy to both jaws, has not been vaccinated.

On the 21st, Song Ji-hyo’s agency, Creative Group IG, said, “On the 20th, we confirmed the fact that the confirmed person and the route overlapped during the recording of the program on the 17th. The immediate test result was negative.”

He continued, “After that, in order to take preemptive measures, I canceled my scheduled schedule and went into self-quarantine for 10 days.

Therefore, we have decided not to participate in the recording of ‘Running Man’ scheduled for the 24th and 25th.”

If a person who has been vaccinated against the COVID-19 vaccine is classified as a close contact after the transition to a step-by-step recovery from daily routine, and if they test negative for COVID-19, they will be subject to passive monitoring rather than quarantine. However, Song Ji-hyo had to self-quarantine for 10 days because she was not vaccinated.

The agency also revealed the reason, saying that Song Ji-hyo was not vaccinated. The agency said, “Song Ji-hyo has been diagnosed with a history of ‘allergy to medicinal herbs’ when she was young. In particular, in 2011, during a busy filming schedule, in a situation where physical recovery was desperately needed, after being hit by Ringer, spots appeared on her body and breathing was difficult. There was an emergency situation such as losing. There is a record of visiting the emergency room and receiving treatment due to the urgent situation at the time. Even after that, adverse reactions related to antibiotics have been repeated.” Because I had no choice but to think carefully and deliberately about this, I would like to state the reason as well as the fact that I am currently not vaccinated.”

“We will continue to thoroughly comply with the quarantine guidelines of the health authorities and do our best for the health and safety of our actors.

Song Ji-hyo underwent a PCR test when Super Junior’s Eun-hyuk, who was a guest on the recording of SBS ‘Running Man’ on the 17th, was diagnosed with Corona 19 on the 20th.

Yoo Jae-suk, Ji Suk-jin, and Haha also received tests and came out negative. Other members are also waiting for the results.

Eunhyuk even finished the 3rd booster shot, but was infected through breakthrough. He tested positive on the 20th and entered self-quarantine, and his symptoms are said to be mild.
