KATSEYE Manon speaks out after video of members seemingly fighting goes viral
KATSEYE’s Manon has addressed a viral video that prompted speculation about tension within the group, confirming that her frustration during a recent fan event had nothing to do with fellow members.
The clip, filmed at a hi-touch and autograph session on the Beautiful Chaos Tour, spread widely on social media and appeared to show Manon visibly upset while speaking to Megan. This led some viewers to assume that the group was experiencing internal conflict.
"pushing everybody and was like manon manon manon"
"can you stop, please stop"
"that shit's not safe"
And that's what's being said, there's no fight. pic.twitter.com/rzooWgNbusManon later clarified the misunderstanding in private Weverse DMs that were reposted across fan accounts.

“I was really upset because there was a grown man in the crowd who wasn’t even a fan, just shoving people including kids to get autographs he could resell later.” #KATSEYE @katseyeworld pic.twitter.com/UkOkrqu7LZShe explained that her reaction was triggered by a man in the crowd who was forcefully pushing fans, including children, in an effort to obtain autographs for resale. Her tone was firm yet good-humoured as she rejected the rumours.
“Lmao friends. The girls aren’t fighting! I was really upset because there was a grown man in the crowd who wasn’t even a fan, just shoving people including kids to get autographs he could resell later,” she wrote.
Fans revisiting the original video noted that Manon appeared to be mouthing phrases such as “someone shoved them” and “that’s not safe,” supporting her explanation and redirecting attention to the behaviour she viewed as a threat to fan safety.
She reiterated that the well-being of attendees remains a priority for the group, and the moment captured on camera reflected concern rather than disagreement.
