Katseye’s Manon is on a temporary hiatus, but there are signs that it might be permanent. Even though Katseye has released music without Manon, the promotion of their new song 'Pinky Up' got fans hoping that she might return, which felt like an intentional strategy pushed by their label, Hybe Geffen.

The crazy thing to me is she’s not my fave, I’m a sophia biased person, but i couldnt stop missing her while watching the MV, you can pick up in which scenes she was supposed to be in… she is the visual, it’s clear. Katseye without manon is just the beginning of the end in my opinion, i cant see them working out with stuff like this happening, being fr.
Just look at the comments under pinky up. Says all
The absolute second she was almost entirely removed from the DEBUT video I knew it was a matter of time....
Pinky up isn't even good enough for all of this drama!!!
I honestly don’t think she is going to come back, and it sucks because she was my second favourite member behind Lara. Hybe fucked up. If they replace her KATSEYE is going down.
The biggest thing that irks me about Katseye was their documentary. How could the executives make one of their members the main antagonist of the documentady? They literally set her up for ongoing unnecessary backlash. I understand she was not professional but the extra scenes with her skipping classes being with her sister, the discussions with Adela and the other dancer was unnecessary to air out. They set her up to lack support from the beginning and that's just horrific after they clearly wanted her no matter what "professional boundaries" she crossed
people need to stop going after the other five girls and go after management
Personally the aesthetic and music do not add up..i mean nothing in the video adds up. The weird blankspace with the hot sexy club aesthetic mixed with childrens stuff and cute lyrics?? Like….its very weird. It couldve worked if they did it in an actually good way and didnt use 20 different concepts all in one. Its not campy its not cute its just a mess. They need to get back on track with regular songs bc idk what the hell they r putting out
The girl group ITZY had I think 1 or 2 comebacks without their member Lia, who was on hiatus fir 10 months, when she finally came back, which people didn't think she would, they re-recorded every song with her and made a new album. I hope that if Manon comes back, they will do the same thing with pinky up and possibly future songs without her. I just wanted to say that because making a song without one member who is on hiatus doesnt ALWAYS mean they're gone forever
I agree with people who compare their music to 'fast fasion'
Also, this behaviour from the Labels wont shield the other members from hate either. ESPECIALLY with how allegedly Dani's Dad reacted to Manon being out. Like, do you WANT your artists get hate, or are you just reckless and or stupid?
Them doing it using the only black girl is so dangerous tbh. Idk why they keep doing risky stuff like this. The experimental songs are bad enough as it already is.
Pinky up is such a dogsh*t song, that I wont have any regret walking away from Katseye should Manon be out fr. This is such bs and I hate the labels for it.
No shade but Pinky Up is a very weak song as well :(
THANK YOU FOR COMING TO THE CORRECT CONCLUSION!!!!!! It was absolutely disgusting for everyone to turn Manon’s clear grievances on being mistreated by the label and fans into speculation about this being a PR stunt.
The fact that they didn’t even have her in the audio shows that she’s probably never coming back, because if she was coming back, they would’ve kept her in the audio for when they perform live
They’ve been doing Manon dirty. There’s the interview with that woman who said that springing the competition show on the trainees and having all the drama sells, so there’s nothing they won’t do for a buck. Also you’re super cute.
I wish you included Danielle’s weird dad’s comments
It’s crazy how the label saw how much praise that katseye got for their diversity in the Gap ad, just to break that all apart…
Honestly, this happens a lot with kpop groups where a member would go on hiatus but the group would still release music then the member would rejoin with new line distribution for them. So I'm not that worried abt anything.. but I understand the panic.
