KATSEYE’s Charms Captivates Fans in Korean Variety Show Debut

Girl group KATSEYE made their Korean variety show debut, showcasing their diverse personalities and talents.

On the November 2nd episode of MBC M’s “Weekly Idol,” multinational girl group KATSEYE appeared as special guests, joined by Kamden of AMPERS&ONE as a guest MC. When host Boom asked Kamden about his familiarity with the group, Kamden initially seemed flustered, admitting, “I don’t know them well.” However, he quickly impressed everyone with his fluent English and relaxed demeanor once KATSEYE arrived.

The group kicked off their appearance with an impromptu introduction contest, ultimately crowning Sophia as the winner after a showdown between her, Manon, and Yoonchae. Sophia expressed her excitement, saying, “I wanted to appear on this program because I found it really fun.”

Before the show’s signature random play dance segment, the members playfully singled out Yoonchae as the most likely to make mistakes. True to their prediction, the first round failed due to Yoonchae and Manon’s missteps. In a moment of cultural contrast, Boom noted, “”Usually, Korean teams comfort each other, but here, they push and encourage each other.”,” as the members shouted “Focus!” to their teammates. KATSEYE impressively performed not only their own songs but also choreography from Blackpink, Le Sserafim, and (G)I-DLE. After another stumble from Manon, Boom jokingly asked, “Is there a buffering issue with Manon in the new album?” The group finally succeeded in the third round, with Daniela emerging as the MVP.

During the “Questions N Answers” segment, the group revealed some of their quirks. They chose Lara as the member known for her occasionally intense physical affection. When asked about members who prompted nagging, Manon initially claimed there were none, but Kamden exposed that she had written down Megan. Manon sheepishly explained it was due to Megan’s driving, to which Megan quipped, “Get your license first,” eliciting laughter from everyone.

Sophia emerged as the group’s chatterbox. When asked about Sophia’s talkative nature, her roommate Yoonchae simply stated, “24 hours,” while Lara added, “She doesn’t sleep.” Sophia defended herself, saying, “I feel suffocated if I don’t talk.”

The group also identified Sophia as the noisiest member. When she attempted to demonstrate her laugh, her bandmates playfully disagreed, saying she “laughs like a dog.” This led to a humorous segment where the hosts tried to make Sophia laugh, with Boom finally succeeding after multiple attempts.

The show concluded with KATSEYE performing a cover of Girls’ Generation’s “Gee”, mashed up with their own song “Touch”, as a tribute to their role models. Yoonchae took on the role of “pro answerer,” and the members wrapped up with an energetic, over-the-top karaoke session featuring various songs.
