Jimin of BTS assured fans on Wednesday that he is doing well after undergoing an emergency appendectomy.

“I’m sorry for making you worry,” he wrote on the Weverse app. “However, I think I will be able to get discharged soon!

“I’m recovering well, and making sure to eat all three meals. Please wait for a little while longer, I will recover quickly and go!”

On Monday, Big Hit Music announced that Jimin was taken to hospital while experiencing sudden abdominal pain. The 26-year-old, who is vaccinated, also had mild COVID-19 symptoms.

Jimin is the fourth member of BTS – after Suga, Jin and RM – to test positive for COVID-19.

The K-pop group is currently on an "extended period of rest."
