After successfully completing the quarantine period and showing no signs of symptoms, he will be released anytime soon, as noted by media outlets. 

Aside from Park Seo Joon, some members of the "Sixth Sense 3" cast tested positive for the virus, which prompted the show to delay its premiere. 

To recall, it was initially scheduled to broadcast on March 11 but was pushed through on March 18 due to health issues. 

According to reports, Jessi, Lee Mi Joo and "The Verge of Sanity" star Lee Sang Yeob all tested positive from COVID-19 and are currently under quarantine. 

On the other hand, award-winning actor Lee Byung Hun announced that he just got out from his two-week quarantine after experiencing the same as Park Seo Joon and the "Sixth Sense 3" cast.
