On May 23rd, Johnny's & Associates announced that 7 MEN Samurai members Motodaka Katsuki, Nakamura Reia, Sasaki Taiko, Konno Taiki, and Yabana Rei have tested positive for COVID-19. 

According to their official website, Motodaka had a fever of 39.5°C (103.1°F) from the 22nd, so he conducted the PCR test and was confirmed positive for the virus. After his positive diagnosis, the other members of 7 MEN Samurai were tested. While they did not have any symptoms, Nakamura, Sasaki, Konno, and Yabana all received positive results. The five members will be recuperating and observing their symptoms for the time being.

Consequently, 'JOHNNYS’ Experience', which 7 MEN Samurai were scheduled to appear in, will be cancelled from May 24th to June 1st. Details on concerts thereafter will be announced later.
