    copypasting from the deleted post: i know speculation is not allowed but could someone give me some context on whether manon has been dealing with mental health (or just health) issues? i like their songs but i honestly don’t follow katseye that closely

    Wishing Manon a quick recovery! Whether this is because of a physical ailment or something psychological, I’m glad she and HxG are prioritizing her health and taking time off to get better.

    Manon has been sick on and off. It did feel like she had been pushing herself a lot. Esp with the tour. It’s probably better to just thoroughly rest and then fully commit herself to work again. I’m glad that hybe is letting idols their rest days.

    From covid to sprained ankles to fainting at the jpn airport.

    She also said she is afraid of flying in airplanes. I’m surprised she is so strong to muscle through everything.

  4. All the ridiculous discourse over her race and identity the ridiculous nit picking and trying to dictate what she should be and what she experiences when these are very complex and not one dimensional topics. They tried to bully Daniela as well into a hiatus by trying to erase her cultural roots. just awful nasty people online. It’s either she’s not black enough and trying to erase her Ghanaian culture or she’s black + add the negative stereotypes. Just horrible bullies.

  5. As someone diagnosed with multiple chronic health issues after working through illness, mental illness, and chronic pain throughout my twenties and thirties I applaud this decision. Please take care of your health even when you are young and feel indestructible. 

  6. tbh i think it’s healthy for group members in general to take temporary hiatus’ when they feel it’s necessary, lowkey think it should be more common place/seen as the norm – especially in such a high pressure industry with primarily young adult/teenager performers

  7. She has gone some of the worst vitriol and hate since the beginning of KATSEYE I really hope she takes all the time she needs to recoup physically and mentally no one should be treated like they aren’t a real human being just because they are a public figure 🤦🏽‍♂️☹️

    Get ready for anti-black haters to use this to validate their “claims” of her being “lazy” and thinking she’s “better than the rest of the group.” I’m just a casual listener of this group, but I’m so over it…

  9. Curious what they are going to do about the comeback that is supposedly soon (since it is supposedly before cochella in april). Do they just not include manon? Has she already filmed and she will be in the video etc but just not perform? I don’t know what is going on obviously but Idk if you announce temp hiatus unless it is going to be at least a month or two at least (vs saying something like she will be out the next two weeks recovering from being sick).

  10. Might be one of the worst fandoms of all time ngl. Don’t think I’ve ever seen them discuss music, just fighting each other all day and bullying members

  11. not a stan but have came across the insane vitriol she’s been receiving lately on various platforms, I really don’t understand what warrants that level of hatred. I hope she stays healthy and safe

  12. seeing people salivate at the possibility of the group disbanding and it’s always the same 3 gg fandoms at the top of the hate train. Their fans have done an awful job defending them from hate as well.

    Ik it’s private but I wish they gave more details, leaving it vague is just going to create harmful discourse

  14. I think this isn’t too much of a surprise due to her weak immune system,I hope she gets well soon

    Take care of yourself, Manon! She’s pretty fortunate to be able to take this time off for how ever long it is so I’ll be excited to see her back with her members again soon 🙂

    Oh this is going to be a fandom and discourse nightmare, isn’t it? Hope she feels better soon though.

    I knew this would happen, sooner or later. I really hope she’s okay and can recover.
    The health problems, the global explosion of online harassment, and the hate are all too much to deal with.

    To be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised if she leaves the group at some point. Obviously, it’s not something I want to happen, but it’s just a bad thought that’s been nagging at me for a long time…

    Katseye is a fascinating group with so much potential.

    I hope they never lose any members.

    i just read their most recent interview with the cut where manon herself mentioned that katseye is going to remain katseye for a while. so i dont know why i see a lot of people being scared that this means shes leaving.

    honestly all the girls have been subject to a lot of hate especially in the past month. so whether this is a physical or mental break i think it’s good shes putting herself first and taking some time off.

  19. Man so sorry to hear, but wishing her all the best. Here’s hoping she comes back stronger than ever.

  20. as a casual fan of the group, eyekons are genuinely one of the most miserable and entitled fandoms in the kpop (adjacent) sphere i’ve ever seen. if they don’t reign it in and get their act together they’re going to be katseye’s downfall fr

    wishing manon a good rest and recovery.
