PENTAGON's agency Cube Entertainment announced on November 28 that the '2020 PENTAGON ONLINE CONCERT [WE L:VE]', which was scheduled to be held at 3PM KST on November 29 has been postponed urgently.
The reason was revealed to be Yeo One having to self-quarantine after accidentally visiting a place where a person was tested positive for COVID-19. The member was tested negative for the disease, but he is still doing self-quarantine for safety reason.
The other members have also been tested for COVID-19 and are waiting for the result. They are self-quarantining in the meantime, and the new schedule will be announced later.
Below is the full text of Cube Entertainment's official position.
