RM, leader of the South Korean music sensation BTS, on Tuesday said he is doing "very good", days after testing positive for the novel coronavirus. BTS` management company Big Hit Entertainment had said in a statement on Saturday that RM, along with Jin, had contracted the virus following their return from the US to native South Korea.

RM had initially tested negative when he underwent PCR testing when he reached South Korea on December 17 following his personal schedule as part of his official vacation period and entered into self-quarantine in his home as mandated by COVID-19 control procedures. The 27-year-old, however, was found to be positive for COVID-19 when he got retested before his scheduled release from quarantine.
