In a message posted to Weverse, Hybe and Geffen Records stated that after “open and thoughtful conversations together, we are sharing that Manon will be taking a temporary hiatus from group activities to focus on her health and wellbeing.” The message added that Katseye will “continue scheduled activities during this time, and we look forward to being together again when the time is right.” Whether Bannerman will be returning to the group for their Head in the Clouds headlining performance in August has not yet been confirmed.
