It looks like the K-pop industry is far from controlling the Covid-19 outbreak. In just hours, the cases have crossed 26 for the second week of February. We first had 10 idols testing positive in the last 24 hours. Itzy’s Lia, 2AM’s Seulong and Jinwoon, and Seventeen’s Wonwoo were among the idols to fall sick. And now in a shocking announcement, almost all of Cravity have gotten Covid-19 days before their upcoming album release.

Starship’s newest boy group were supposed to have their comeback on February 22 with their second studio album ‘Liberty: In Our Cosmos’. Fans were excited as Cravity had started dropping concept images and teasers for the comeback. It would have been their first comeback in six months after the success of their first studio album, ‘The Awakening: Written in the Stars’, which charted at #3 on Gaon and topped iTunes in countries like Panama.
