I wonder if she knew she wasn’t going to be in the video? I’m sure it was taped before she left.

Anyone with a brain saw this coming
what a complete failure by both companies.
Not sure if the group is going to last longer than a year now. This is literally 5H all over again but at least 5H has multiple blockbuster singles smh

Just rip the bandage out at this point. Such a disrespect to EYEKONS and those who bias her. I just wish we could have had a clean-cut departure with both sides amicably splitting instead of this dragged-out guessing of “is she staying?” or “is she leaving?”

can someone explain this in pop culture/sports terms for someone who doesn’t follow katseye closely
Curious_Hat5401 on
Poor Manon what a terrible situation. All the management involved in the decision making in HxG should be fired this feels like the end of any significant success this group could have had.
Calm_Ad_7299 on
Feel bad for the 5 girls. The hate they’re going to get is insane. It’s already bad right now.

The way people tried to say we were overreacting. It was so obvious that this wasn’t a normal hiatus.

Funny how they wanted Manon so badly in the group but they treat her poorly and the girls dynamic with her is just weird.

Why won’t their label just make it clear and release a statement?

Oh man. She was one of my faves 🥲

Manon is my favorite member. It’s so sad.

Well HybexGeffen don’t care atp they have a new global gg to debut I think this year itself, Katseye was their experiment and hopefully new gg have better music

This whole situation is just so strange to me. They don’t even have a proper album out yet. What could possibly be going on behind the scenes?

well! 😬

It was so obvious from the jump that this wasn’t a normal hiatus. I knew since the moment she DM’d fans saying that she was physically fine.

She’s obviously not on some kind of health hiatus. Just say she’s gone or not

To go from the high they were on after the Gap commercial to whatever the fuck is happening now is tragic lmao, this group had so much potential

yikes. we need an announcement so the speculation can end. coachella is very soon.
RuneofBeginning on
Yep. With the teaser and everything she’s definitely not coming back. They’re going to put out an official announcement within a week.
This is the definition of a PR disaster. They let the story get out of their hands before they could properly get in front of it. HYBE has the worst PR team in the industry, I’m convinced.
CosmicFriedRice on
I wish they’d just put out a proper statement already. This is so messy / unprofessional and even if it’s a PR stunt it’ll follow the group for a while and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re disbanded within 2 years if she really is done.

They hit the pentagon 😭😭😭😭

I’ll just wait until there’s a statement before anything. Idk it feels strange to me that this was right after the MV teaser dropped? I think I would see it differently if all pics related to Katseye were deleted.

luviees2 on
Oh, that’s not… if she’s actually out then they should have made an announcement before the teaser dropped
Etheria_system on
Why are people saying Manon leaving will be the end of the group? Members leave groups all the time and keep going. What makes Katseye different?
CalligrapherEast2344 on
They planted the seeds of this chaos with the Documentary.
Either Manon wasn’t showing up to the Academy and should have been removed from the programme, or they were beind disingenous in the documentary and should have completely scrapped that “arc”.
They will still be very successful, but this drama was so avoidable.
tafattsbarn on
I was really rooting for them as a group, that’s unfortunate.
I wonder why this always seems to happen with western girl and boy groups though, it’s interesting how no one can keep the original line ups
MindfulNoob on
It’s so weird that they haven’t made a statement that the comeback will be an OT5 one though.
It just seems really unprofessional? Even JYP be making statements when a member would be missing a comeback this situation seems really messy.
BBAomega on
I think Hybe should consider moving the group to another label
A_yoonicorn on
My takeaway from all of this is Danielle’s dad is a certified dork. His comments pissed me off more than anything else lol

idk what to make out of this but it seems like theyre just coming up with a way for her to leave the group without contract termination penalties etc or probably just an extended hiatus with more information given to the fans.

I need HYBE to let go of their dream of having a 6 member girl group. It has NEVER worked out for them, looking at you: LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT.
wooyoungism on
if all of this is REALLY a marketing ploy like ive seen people talk about, then either way its gonna work out shit for the group and HxG… bc either its “they kicked out their sole black member for god knows what” or its gonna be “they used their sole black member and their fans as engagement bait for a comeback”…………….. its so joever
