Different sides are not happy about it.

The latest announcement regarding KATSEYE has had a major impact.
On May 13, it was announced that KATSEYE would be going on a world tour. The WildWorld Tour is scheduled to begin in September and run through the end of November, with stops across Europe and North America.

However, with the announcement several things stood out.
First, the tour post only includes the five currently active members, which would not usually be alarming for a group with a member on hiatus, like Manon currently is.
However, with the dates not beginning until September, and the post only including five members, along with the uncertainty surrounding Manon, many have expressed anger over the tour.
doing a whole EP and world tour when you put a member on hiatus is a choice

yall will do anything but address the fact one of the members is gone

A world tour without any update on Manon is absolute insane behavior. Goodbye forever katseye. It was fun while it lasted….

Additionally, K-netizens had opinions over the tour poster itself.
The members are dressed in styling similar to that from “Pinky Up,” which contains some lingerie.
Netizens felt that the styling went too far, especially on Yoonchae, who just turned 18 and was styled differently in their promotions in Korea.
- She’s just not pretty… You can still look beautiful while wearing revealing clothes, but this has no cohesion at all and I honestly don’t get the intention behind it.
- I don’t know who’s styling them for the U.S. promotions, but it really has been getting more and more excessive. If even locals are starting to talk about it, then…
- They keep making them wear less and less. Why are they so obsessed with stripping them down? Please just dress them properly. What even is this, seriously?
- They should just style them like they do for Korean music shows. Why are they doing this?
