Super Junior member Eunhyuk diagnosed with influenza flu

Super Junior member Eunhyuk has been diagnosed with the H1N1 influenza flu, according to his agency SM Entertainment on Friday.

The singer showed symptoms of a cold on Thursday and after visiting the hospital he was soon confirmed to have infected the influenza virus. Eunhyuk has halted all activities and is resting at home, SM explained.

Eunhyuk will cancel his schedule for the rest of the week including DJing his KBS-FM show "Kiss the Radio" until he has fully recovered from his illness.

He was also set to appear as a guest on Girls' Generation's encore concert "1st ASIA TOUR CONCERT - Into the New World" over the weekend but has been replaced by Super Junior members Lee Teuk and Heechul.

Eunhyuk made his debut in 2005 with the 13-member boy band who have been a hit in Korea as well as several other Asian countries.
