While fan theories can often be a fun way to engage with the fandom experience, sometimes they can cross boundaries. Something similar happened to a HYBE idol recently, who didn’t hesitate to set the record straight firmly.
The idol in question is KATSEYE’s Manon, who has unfortunately faced various controversies recently.

On January 19, when Manon was actively communicating with fans through Weverse, she sent them a screenshot of a TikTok featuring a widely circulated rumor about her. The video claimed that during the “Touch” era, she was wearing only loose skirts because she had gotten a Christina piercing (genital piercing).
While the rumor itself was based on previous videos of KATSEYE where the members made suggestive jokes about Manon’s piercings, the idol didn’t hesitate to call out how intrusive it was. She wrote, “You guys are so weird,” directly calling out this kind of fan behavior.
Manon’s direct and firm response has been welcomed by fans, who felt it was necessary to draw the line.
