Manon of KATSEYE faces backlash amid mistreatment claims
Manon from KATSEYE is at the center of controversy after netizens accused her girl group of “icing out” her. Fans raised alarms over alleged mistreatment, sparking calls for a boycott.
On July 23, Manon made her first Instagram update since the controversy began—posting a brief video saying, "hey people ."
Some fans saw this as Manon brushing off the drama, possibly signaling frustration with the uproar over her treatment.
“even manon is tired of her fanbase lol”
— Lucas Ramos“Oh she knows what we been up to”
— Aaron Targaryen“she said yall are overreacting ”
— ّ“it’s giving ‘y’all are overreacting & need to shut it down’”

However, many netizens pushed back hard. They argue the short clip is too vague to read as a statement. Whether Manon’s message was genuine or scripted, fans demand a real response addressing the mistreatment claims.
“losers using this video to push a narrative that we were ‘overreacting,’ but i bet bc of the recent outrage, h&g is goin to be a lil more careful with how they treat her. and now manon knows that the world is rooting for her”

— ؘ“making her address things again…no admission of what’s going on at all or any statement. i’m happy to see her but this isn’t gonna cut it”
— ki“‘It was never that serious’ THEY SENT EVERYONES PHOTO BUT HERS LIKE UR FUCKING PLAYING”

The situation is still unfolding with fans watching closely for any official statement from KATSEYE or their agency.
