Why KATSEYE is The Future of Global GGs: The Art of a Perfect Lineup

[@09803x]

this is the best lineup to come out of a survival show, I love it.

[@EKCristobal]

hybe x geffen really did this right. and i truly hope they continue to build on this momentum! katseye's potential to become the greatest global girl group of their generation is massive.

[@smn_tr3asur3]

Not when el7zup exists,but they're great yeah.

[@EKCristobal]

@@smn_tr3asur3 i'd say el7zup has a solid advantage experience-wise in the idol industry, whereas katseye has yet to solidify theirs. nevertheless, I’d agree, but i could say the same about trejo, enha, and zb1 having the best lineups as well.

[@User-6661-o9y]

This was the perfect lineup for max chemistry and mass appeal. I don’t think a single member could be replaced by any trainee in the documentary.

[@giu7210]

​@@moonsigil nobody could blame them. It was alright to say at the time. Nobody would want someone who doesn't seem to want to be there and put in the work themselves. She improved now, we love her now. But at the time she wasn't the best choice and that's okay.

The members of Katseye are so talented

[@EKCristobal]

individually yes, cause all members can sing and dance. collectively, they are not weak in any aspect.

[@rello2fine]

Manon is not a strong singer but she is Uber beautiful so it don’t matter I guess lol

[@EKCristobal]

@rello2fine Not that it doesn’t matter, but as Bang PD himself said, it’s almost impossible to create a group where every member is a main vocalist or main dancer. While it’s true that Manon isn’t the strongest singer, she has solid basics-especially her pitch, which is one of the most crucial fundamentals-and it’s even better than that of some who have been in the industry [Kpop] longer. This suggests that we need to hear more from her because she undoubtedly has a lot more to offer if given the right opportunities. Ultimately, the success of a group depends on the synergy between its members. Each member plays a unique role, and Manon's star quality is an undeniable asset, so much so that even the harshest critics on the show couldn’t ignore it. In the end, they’re in an industry where star quality equals marketability, which equals financial success, and that’s what pays the bills. So, let’s support Katseye because every member has an important role in the group, and I truly believe they’re going to make it big.

[@hueningbahiyyih627]

[@tinjazv8743]

Megan is the stand out for me. I've been watching all their performances and my eyes always gravitates to her first. Everyone is 100% but Megan and Lara to me when they dance and perform are always at 150%. Their body lines and movements are gorgeous!

[@EKCristobal]

glad am not the only one getting swayed by megan’s stand out performance on stage. that’s why i call her the best performer of Katseye.

Megan = best performer & best facials, Lara = all-rounder with great stage presence & eye-catching. The power duo. Dani is a great performer as well.

[@starling93]

Lara grab my attention the most. First, her voice. What an angel ! Fell in love with her since first heard Katseye's song. Second, her dance. Dani moves best, Megan is power and charisma, but Lara is so naturally smooth and fluid, my eyes can't help but follow her around. Her hairography is the best. Third, just her overall presentation, the way she speaks and carry herself. Often the spoke person with Sophia, i can't believe she's just 18. So eloquent and professional.

[@Benjicord9]

Katseye was such a good final lineup for me only one of my picks from DA didn’t make it but she has found somewhere else to shine and Yoonchae is so underrated imo like her stage presence especially her facial expressions are so good

Also you should do a vocal analysis of the group that came from the survival show girls on fire! Nayoung from dreams academy was on it and it’s a 5 member vocal group who is INSANE like they are going to crush the vocal competition when they debut(Whenever that will be)

this is video is so good! I am so proud of Manon, we know she struggled with her work ethic to the point it worried the rest of the girls and their mentors, but her improvement through Dream Academy and specially in her journey to the debut is absolutely remarkable and notorious. She is not lazy, she only needed to find her path and lock in, and lock in indeed she did! She doesn't drag the group down in their performances, she blends just fine, dances as hard and passionately as the rest, and she may not be the best dancer or vocalist on the group but she still manages to catch people's attention and is continuously bringing more and more fans every day with every video and pic of her. Her personality is charismatic and silly too, so it's not hard to fall in love with her beyond her looks. She's a sweetheart that has shown that she's a hard worker and passionate on what she's doing, so I'm really glad she made it to the final lineup, she's proving every day that that decision was not a mistake ❤

I can't help but wonder what happened with VCHA, what did HYBE get right that JYPE get wrong, would love to see a video about that.

[@EKCristobal]

i agree that hybe x geffen indeed did right with katseye… as for vcha, they’ll be an interesting case

[@fearnot_jeans]

It's not JYPE but Republic Records

[@goldyd144]

I think Republic Records, who I believe manages them more than JYP, lost faith after VCHA didn't sell that well or generate as much buzz as they had hoped for. If they had continued promoting them, with their scheduled festival performances with Lalapalooza and such, it likely would've paid off eventually. But American labels these days value results first more than building an audience while signed. If they were only a JYP group, then they probably would've still been promoting.

[@EVVENN]

I think saying that jyp got it wrong is still too early to tell, vcha’a inactive right now but they started their career earlier than katseye, which was a huge advantage on jyp.

[@Arkv-o1n]

Jyp literally messed up they should have trained them more harder to get highly skilled they are lacking in training and talent plus it's not kpop jyp bent more towards to kpop in English version with them like seriously? For western market it's looks so kid bop nor in western or Korean got interest in them and they continuesly keep bringing same typaa songs, plus most underage member under vcha it's so sad to see and after one comeback she went to hitauous? Really and jyp made whole vcha under hitauous and now nothing. It's very hard to break into western market the idea of jyp literally not going to work they need to change it ASAP

[@mrpowerplusbox7544]

Watching the documentary you’ll know why Kpop has become popular throughout the past years-it’s the level of marketing their idols through live music performances, aesthetic mvs, reality shows, fan engagements like fancalls,fanmeets etc. Unlike western groups who are limited only in releasing songs and an mv, they could only have live performance like awards show, festival or like being on tour. There is lack of fan engagements that’s why it’s mostly general public and because of this it is hard to turn casual listeners to fans. I do hope the management of katseye continue this kpop marketing style of them on putting a lot of contents going on music shows and visiting other countries because the moment they stop doing this they would just become a normal western group. Fans love watching their idols and all the contents they continuously do. Lack of contents are the reason why fans jump from another group to another. It may seem that kpop has seen a decline since a lot of groups debuting left and right but with popular entertainment companies debuting their new groups it is a matter of time when a potential new one would rise that would level up and be popular like BTS and Blackpink. And seeing how kpop groups are now multilingual it would be easy now to communicate w/ international fans. That’s why I do hope whatever they are doing to katseye marketing they continue it because these girls really do have the talent and IT factor to become BIG. They are all like CENTERS in their own way. With the rise of popularity of Katseye we can say that other kpop companies would follow these steps since they knew it click to the people.

Yeahhh, Sophia's voice really reminds me of Disney princesses, both her speaking and singing voice. She could be a voice actor for a future Disney princess. Also, in terms of her physical appearance, this might be an unpopular opinion, but she kind of reminds me of Mulan. I don't knowwww, but she really does. Her face and most especially her hair, the color and the shape of it is somewhat similar to Mulan's. She could pass as Mulan for a live-action movie of Mulan. I thought I was the only one who thought of this until I saw one comment in a Facebook reel that they also see Mulan in Sophia. I'm glad I wasn't the only one. Love you, Sophiakinssss!

[@joegagliardi3984]

I saw Megan as a lead from the beginning, not necessarily because she’s the best. It was her height, long limbs, and long hair that made any other position than upfront seem asymmetrical. The Netflix doc was good, but the show’s producers made some poor decisions toward the end. They blindsided the girls, after a year of being together, that they were really in a survival show, and by adding new members late in the process. Several different combinations, or substitutions, would have worked just as well. If you were, like me, only watching the show, it was a big surprise when I saw how different the fans felt about the girls; for example, Manon went from 20th to 4th. It was clear that the original crew was were a little frustrated as well, and rightly so. I love what Lexi did, and I thought the producer sounded stupid by implying “they” had to let her go; no, she didn’t show up on purpose because of the way they handled the elimination process. I thought the show was great and all of the girls’ were extremely talented and worked so hard. It’s crazy, I watched the show in a day, but these girls’ were living and training for more than a year.

[@ipsinc2000]

Personal opinions don't matter. With a few exceptions, why most K-pop groups doesn't last for long? Young talents in Korea like Mamoland, Fifty-Fifty etc., fell in the hands of irresponsible and corrupt people acting as Managers who exploit them. Koreans needs to explain this serious allegation.
