“Just give a statement.”
Koreaboo
As Manon’s hiatus from KATSEYE has continued, fans have continued searching for indications of her status with the group.
A fan recently shared their experience of buying a KATSEYE merch item, which has gained attention online.
In a TikTok video, a fan unboxed KATSEYE’s lightstick and was shocked to find it did not include a Manon photocard. Like other groups, the KATSEYE lightstick usually comes with six photocards, one of each member.
The video showing the missing photocard quickly racked up views and comments, with some stating that it was more common to be missing a photocard than thought. Others saw it as a sign that she is out of the group.
@tw1cy straight from my spam lol #katseye
Additionally, some fans pointed out that a shop based in Poland clearly states that there are only five photocards included in the lightstick sold on their site, stating that it was the “company’s decision.”
“The set contains only 5 photocards and does not include Manon (the company’s decision).”

While this is one instance, potentially so far, it does continue to raise further questions.
