SHINee’s Onew diagnosed with H1N1

Onew 1Another SHINee member catches the swine flu.

SHINee leader Onew has recently been diagnosed with the H1N1 virus, more commonly known as the swine flu. Onew’s illness comes after his  fellow SHINee member, Jong-hyun, was hospitalized with the flu last week.

Onew was sent to the hospital after developing a slight fever and is currently resting at home until he fully recovers. Since Onew is the second SHINee member to fall ill with the highly contagious virus, members Ki-bum, Tae-min and Min-ho have now also been tested for swine flu. As it stands, none of the other members currently have the virus.

Though their leader is currently out of commission, SHINee is still scheduled to perform on the November 8th taping of SBSInkigayo“. It is rumored that Super Junior leader Lee-teuk will fill in for Onew during the performance.  Earlier this week, Super Junior’s Ye-sung had to replace SHINee member  Jong-hyun (then ill with H1N1) during the group’s November 6th  KBS Music Bank” performance.

Onew is just  another name on the the long list of celebrities who have fallen ill with the  virus. Fortunately, his fellow member Jong-hyun was diagnosed and released within the week. Let’s hope Onew can recover just as quickly!

    I don’t know why the SHINee members need to be replaced. Big Bang has performed sans members before and they did just fine. I just think SHINee can be just as good with only 4 members and being replaced by SJ members…LAME!!
    I hope Onew gets well soon and the rest of SHINee avoids getting hit by H1N1.

    ONE ONE SHOULD EVER REPLACE ANY OF THE SHINEE MEMBERS!!!!
    I think if they are going to replace him let it be one of the shinee members!
    I think he caught it from Jonghyun!

  30. 37 tvgirlxq November 9, 2009 at 12:40 am

    ONEW TOO! NO! Why can’t the flu just leave SHINee alone. :(
    I really hope he gets better soon and recovers just as fast as Jonghyun did.
    GET REST, ONEW!

  31. 38 Our Faith~ November 9, 2009 at 2:00 am

    ooh poor Onew ):
    the two oldest in SHINee are down with the flu.
    and at the wrong time too,with ring ding dong on the charts.
    though it sweet to have the seniors helping out the juniors,i hope Onew can recover soon !
    Teukie would have to be the temp leader and take care of the rest of the boys then !
