Prior to filming for a solo project, Lee, also known as Hoony, used a self-test kit which came back positive. He then took a PCR test which confirmed he had contracted the coronavirus.  
 
The three other members of Winner — Kang Seung-yoon, Mino and Jinu — also took PCR tests which came back negative. 
 
“Lee Seung-hoon is fully vaccinated and showed no particular symptoms before he tested positive,” said YG. “He is currently in good health. We will support him for a swift recovery.”
