Manon being the member who’s most often missing is a bad look no matter how much my fellow eyekons wanna pretend it isn’t and come up with excuses https://t.co/uxZ2VR2ocB

Guys look I fucking love Manon but that girl is always missing and is getting ridiculous at this point (and for the people saying that she have a bad immune system that girl yesterday was in a concert having fun…) pic.twitter.com/hxPeGfqVqy

Yet, many fans defended Manon, explaining that she has an immune system problem, but adding that it wasn’t an official KATSEYE schedule, so she wasn’t required to attend.
‘ why is Manon always-‘ yalls should worry less about Manon and worry more about finding jobs. Because Manon is doing just fine and living her life unlike you jobless people who always have something to say about her. pic.twitter.com/j5LuVzCaXG

Everyone only knows how to talk about Manon, they can’t understand that it wasn’t mandatory for her to be there. Isn’t it possible to appreciate the other girls without raising speculation?! https://t.co/LF2C27ap33 pic.twitter.com/cYrsGOGWFb
