HYBE struck gold with Katseye 🐈‍⬛️

My bias is Sophia.

It's tonight right? 12am?

Super curious about them.

Newjeans paved the way

Quote from usagi-kua

for what????????

this style and music was here before they was even born lmaooo

what 🧙🏼‍♀️ brought to kpop was probably "new" for the generation newjeans debuted in, but it's been here.

actually the style and r&b influence min heejin set for newjeans was taken from a culture that ain't even hers in the first place

so she paved the way for being a cultural appropiator💀

newjeans flop

Katseye coming to show what real flop is

oh i simply cant wait

Hmm.

I remember rooting for the three black/brown girls pre katseye. Two got to debut in this group. So let's go, Lara and Manon! I'm rooting for people who look like me to succeed.

Quote from usagi-kua

my 2 biases are -

Manon and Lara

(also Manon reminds me of Tyla lmao)

Manon is a Ghanaian. It’s the African blood calling out lol

Cute! I’ll check in

Oh really?! Good to know.

We need summer banger. Debut is just giving exactly that.

I do feel for them, Hybe girl groups debuts set the bar way higher globally, especially Magnetic, lol.

LSF Fearless or XG Tippy Toes level performance maybe a great start to success.

oh i simply cant wait

Never heard of them, they look stunning tho.

Hopefully they can sing.

Quote from usagi-kua

tell me why i was sitting back looking at the pictures wondering who was the 3rd💀

also I forgot what her name was, i think it was Samara or something..but i believe she was gonna make the team at first since she got a lot of international votes, but she ended not getting picked cuz fans found out she was a zionist or she made some weird remarks

right??

Yes that was her. A beautiful girl with a horrible soul.

cool...but shouldn't this be in like western entertainment instead of kpop.

I see your point. I mean not like Hybe America artist (former) like Justin Bieber can be classified as K pop.

Quote from usagi-kua

thats completely different 💀

we talking about a group who debuted directly from hybe, makes videos in the hybe building, associate with other hybe groups etc

like you can't compare lol

so yes, they'll be talked about

lol what label are they debuting under?

A:

About

Description

Katseye is an American girl group formed through the reality show Dream Academy, a collaboration between Hybe Corporation and Geffen Records. The group consists of six members: Manon Bannerman, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, and Yoonchae Jeong. Wikipedia

No, this does not sound like a kpop group nor is it a pure K entertainment produced group.

they created katseye solely to promote in the US market

"K-pop would have to take the “K” out of K-pop and become just “pop” music for the music genre to become globally mainstream, Bang said. For that to happen, it would “have to be targeted to the American market.”"

very interesting, will definitely be checking them out

Debut rap mix

Quote from usagi-kua

Wrong, they arent a american girl group

they are a "global girl group" which means they are gonna be everywhere, it's just they'll be in the U.S. the most, while still in Korea at HYBE from time to time

Hybe literally wrote their name in korean on the hybe channel for all their content.

So it wouldnt be a surprise if katseye promote in korea too

they not just solely for america
