Suga contracted the virus just before Christmas after returning to South Korea from the U.S., where BTS had a concert in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, two other members of the group, RM and Jin, are currently in isolation after they also tested positive for the coronavirus on December 25. BTS's management company Big Hit Entertainment said in a statement on Saturday that like Suga, RM and Jin have also contracted the virus after returning from the United States.
