how to show sympathy to my friend in a naughty way?
Recently one of my friends can't get back to school due to the epidemic and he is very upset.
Is 'What a pity!' used when you try to show sympathy to your friends?
Or is there any other expressions I can use in this situation?
how to show sympathy to my friend in a naughty way?
What do you mean by 'naughty'? I am not sure what you mean by showing sympathy in a naughty way.
Recently one of my friends caouldn't geto back to school due to the epidemic and he is very upset.
Or you could discard 'recently' and say: "One of my friends can't go back to school/attend school due to the epidemic and he is very upset."
Or is there any other expressions I can use in this situation?
You could say 'what a pity!' however there are more colloquial expressions that I would expect to hear more often in these types of situations such as: "That's awful", "I understand how you feel", "You're right... It really sucks", "I would feel the same way as you.." Or "That sucks" depending on the context. I hope this is helpful to you :^)

It should be in the past tense if 'recently' is in the sentence. It is correct?

To be honest when I edited your sentence I didn't think about the reason much but just went with what seemed more natural. However, 'recently' does refer to a time that started in the past, and therefore it makes more sense to use the past tense with it.
Other examples:
My baby recently started eating food.
He recently stopped being able to swim.
Recently I have been much more irritable.
I hope this is helpful to you :D

hHow tocan I show sympathy tofor my friends in a naughty way?
Personally I would only use naughty for misbehaved children or things related to sex. This could be misunderstood.
Generally, I am unsure what you mean by "in a naughty way". Do you want it to sound sarcastic?

An epidemic is just limited to your country, a pandemic effects the whole world. Covid is a pandemic.

Maybe "cheeky" would work better, but it has the undertone that you are making fun of your friends.
