This video discusses the potential disbandment of the global pop girl group KATSEYE, formed by Geffen and Hybe (0:24). The group's future is uncertain due to subpar music (1:07) and internal issues, particularly the alleged removal of member Manon (1:20).
Manon's Hiatus and Allegations:
KATSEYE's labels announced Manon was taking a hiatus for "health and well-being" (1:40).
Manon denied this, stating she is healthy and implying the decision was not hers (1:49).
The video suggests Manon was kicked out for unauthorized "side quests" like a short film and a guest judge appearance on Germany's Next Top Model (2:10).
There's a pattern of singling out black girls in multi-racial girl groups, drawing comparisons to Normani from Fifth Harmony and Leigh-Anne Pinnock from Little Mix (3:42).
Industry and Fan Reactions:
Celebrities like SZA, Normani, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Chloe Bailey have publicly supported Manon (4:47).
Fans have noticed Hybe's alleged attempts to phase out Manon (5:32), citing instances like her absence from a Glossier billboard (5:48) and a Gabriella dance shoot (6:01).
A confidential internal document about KATSEYE was leaked, outlining plans for a five-member group (6:28).
Controversy with Daniela's Father:
Daniela's father publicly stated, "The show must go on with or without a member. KATSEYE is bigger than one girl" (7:00).
He also alluded to Manon being "lazy" (7:46), despite Manon's efforts to keep up with the group despite having no prior experience (7:55).
Future of KATSEYE:
The video questions if the group can last without Manon (8:22), citing historical examples of groups disbanding after a member's departure (8:36).
The presenter believes Hybe and Geffen may not have long-term plans for KATSEYE and are using them as an experiment for a new girl group (8:56).
Some members, like Manon, Laura, and particularly Yun, are seen as having potential for solo careers (9:15).
