K-pop powerhouse HYBE has introduced its new international girl group, Katseye, with the release of their first single “Debut” on Friday. The upbeat summer track showcases the group’s confidence and catchy melodies.
Katseye features six members selected from “The Debut: Dream Academy,” a global audition held in Los Angeles last year in collaboration with Geffen Records. The multinational lineup includes Sophia (Philippines), Yoonchae (Korea), Manon (Switzerland), and Lara, Megan, and Daniela (United States).
BTS choreographer and HYBE Executive Director Son Sung-deuk oversaw the group’s performance, while Gregory Ohrel, known for his work with Selena Gomez, directed the music video.
HYBE, the company behind K-pop sensations BTS and NewJeans, has announced plans for Katseye to release a second single in July and an EP in August. The group is also set to make an appearance at KCON LA 2024 in late July.
