The video says her roommate is suspected to have corona virus, but the result of the test will only be known tomorrow, so let's hope it's negative.

I don’t have time to watch the video right now, but is it possible that you mean hwanja nim? Hwanja would be like “patient” (nim is generally an honorific, like Japanese sama), so perhaps appropriate in this situation.

Whatever the case, I wish her the best.

Tests came OK. She should be discharged soon.

Take care
