- International girl group Katseye has quickly reached major milestones after forming three years ago through a U.S. talent competition.
- Two of the group’s six members are currently absent, prompting fans to question the authenticity of its lineup.
- The group has not yet released a full album.
Katseye has reached pop stardom with unusual speed, but the six-member group is now facing a crisis. Two members are currently away, and fans have begun questioning whether the lineup is authentic.
The international girl group formed three years ago through a U.S. talent competition that drew 120,000 applicants. Since then, it has achieved milestones that many artists spend years pursuing.
Katseye appeared as a four-member group on NBC’s Today Show concert in New York on Aug. 14. Daniela, Megan, Lara and Yoonchae performed without Sophia and Manon.
The group has yet to release a full album, adding to the contrast between its rapid rise and its current uncertainty over the six-member formation.
