Kim Mina Reveals COVID-19 Suspicion and Testing Story: "I Was Afraid My Movements Would Be Disclosed for 2 Weeks"
[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Juhee] Weathercaster Kim Mina revealed her feelings regarding the time she underwent testing due to suspected symptoms of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).
On the 18th, MBC's 'Radio Star' aired a special episode titled 'Jobda-han Guys,' featuring Lim Haryong, Yang Donggeun, Kim Mina, and Ong Seongwu.
Kim Mina mentioned the incident when she was tested for COVID-19 after showing suspected symptoms, which even trended in real-time search rankings. She recalled, "During an interview at a pro gamer tournament, I had a slight fever of 37.8 degrees Celsius."
Kim Mina shared, "Two thoughts crossed my mind. Since I meet many people, I thought if I tested positive, I would become a super spreader. Also, since the movements of confirmed cases are revealed in detail, I thought my whereabouts over the past two weeks would be disclosed. That part was a bit frightening."
Special MC Ravi asked, "Was the second thought scarier?" and Kim Mina laughed, replying, "Kind of?"
