Ive Lee Seo will not attend graduation ceremony

Ive's (Ahn Yu-jin, Ga-eul, Ray, Jang Won-young, Liz, and Lee-seo)'s youngest child, Lee Seo, finishes middle school and becomes a high school student.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the middle school graduation ceremony with friends I have known for three years. It was a moment I had been waiting for despite my busy schedule, but I was unable to attend due to the recent COVID-19 diagnosis.
On the 2nd, Lee Seo showed symptoms of mild sore throat, underwent a rapid antigen test, and was confirmed to have COVID-19. He currently has no other symptoms other than a mild sore throat and is recovering at home, separated from other members.
Although Lee Seo had a busy schedule including various award ceremonies at the end of last year, he was looking forward to the middle school graduation ceremony. It is said that he expressed his regret at not being able to attend the graduation ceremony due to the resurgence of COVID-19.
Ive's youngest member Lee Seo, who debuted in 2021, played an active role with her lively charm. During the promotion of their debut song 'ELEVEN', they were not embarrassed by close-ups of the camera and showed off their unique talents, and despite their young age, they created a buzz with their performance skills that did not lag behind and the so-called 'close-up shot' fancam.
Taking over the topic of the fancam, trends such as the 'Eleven' zoom challenge continued, and thanks to its popularity, Ive recorded three consecutive mega hits with all three debut singles he released. After setting an unprecedented record of winning a total of 37 awards on music shows (13 wins for 'Eleven', 10 wins for 'LOVE DIVE', and 14 wins for 'After LIKE'), they won the grand prize and rookie award at various awards ceremonies last year. I lifted it three times at the same time.
Lee Seo said through his agency Starship Entertainment, “I really wanted to attend the middle school graduation ceremony, which only happens once in my life, but I am sad and upset that things have not been possible due to COVID-19. “I really wanted to attend the graduation ceremony, chat with my teachers and friends, and take pictures, but I am really sad,” he said. “I would like to take this opportunity to express my love and gratitude to my precious friends who were with me during my school days and the teachers who shared good lessons with me.” I want to tell you something. “Even if we are physically apart, we will be able to share precious memories with our friends at the graduation ceremony in our hearts,” he said.
He added, “I will focus on recovery and treatment so that many people do not worry, and I will do my best to show my healthy self again.”
Ive will hold his first fan con since his debut, ‘IVE THE FIRST FAN CONCERT ‘The Prom Queens’, on February 11th and 12th at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul. do.
