The song entered Spotify\u2019s Daily Top Songs Global chart at No. 18. Meanwhile, member <strong>Manon<\/strong> remains on hiatus to focus on her health and mental well-being, according to HYBE and Geffen.<\/p>\n<p>Although reports initially said she could have re-joined the group at Coachella, the Swiss member did not perform with them on any of the weekends. Instead, she appeared during PinkPantheress\u2019 set on April 18, 2026. At the time of posting, it is still unclear whether Manon will return to the group or if they will continue as five members. However, the Swiss member does not appear to be included in this rollout at all, being excluded from &#8220;Pinky Up&#8221; and the concept photos released so far.<\/p>\n<p>See Manon as a guest during Pink Pantheress&#8217; Coachella set:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">MANON ON THE STAGE FOR PINKPANTHERESS SET OH MY GOD  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sffPWD5PCV\">pic.twitter.com\/sffPWD5PCV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; rin \ud801\ude5a (@mycatzeye) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mycatzeye\/status\/2045724654199836851?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">April 19, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KATSEYE confirms the release of Wild KATSEYE will release their third EP, Wild, on August 14, 2026, according to an announcement from Hybe x Geffen Records made on Thursday, April 15, 2026.
