On the afternoon of the 11th, a media day commemorating Cats Eye's debut and Asian promotion tour was held at the Hive headquarters in Yongsan-gu, Seoul.
Lara said "I've been waiting a lot for the Asian promotion. I'm looking forward to it and grateful for it,' Yoon-chae said.'I'm happy and excited to be able to do music broadcasts and promotions that I've dreamed of in Korea,' Manong said"I'm glad to be back in Seoul, my favorite city,' and Megan said"I'm very excited to show you the results I've prepared so hard.'
Cats Eye is Hive's first American localized multinational girl group. It consisted of six members, including Manong (Switzerland), Sophia (Philippines), Daniela (USA), Lara (USA), Megan (USA), and Yoon Chae (Korea), who were selected through survival audition 'The Debut: Dream Academy', and made their official debut on June 28.
As it is a team created by a training course based on the K-pop methodology and a producer representing Korea and the United States, Cats Eye is showing a powerful impact as it is said to have both visuals and skills.
Manong was able to become one by naturally coordinating and matching cultural differences while living together in the same accommodation. There was no great difficulty"We are a global girl group representing many countries, and we have our own diversity. We came from different backgrounds, so there is something special that only we can show."
Sophia analyzed "The difference from K-pop idols is that we can accommodate a wider audience because we have diversity and come from various cultural backgrounds, and unlike pop singers, harmony with the sword dance and team members is advantageous because it was based on the K-pop methodology."
Then "K-pop training had strict discipline and many difficulties, but there were many good moments." All six received a lot of help in the training process. They tried to improve their skills on their own and became the driving force for new challenges. The company (Hive) also provided a lot of support to challenge in a good environment both physically and psychologically," he said.
Lara said "Hive and Geffen Records gave us a unique experience not seen before. I was so excited to produce the global group we all wanted, and it was precious because it was a unique opportunity not found in the music industry", he explained.

Lara is an album that contains our unexpected charms. It encompasses a wide range of genres. 'Touch' highlights our soft side, but also contains complex human emotions.'
Daniela says "Entering the Billboard itself is unrealistic" and Manon says "It's an unexpected glorious result. (The Billboard) is the goal of every artist, and it is hard to put into words that our songs have achieved such amazing results. It was a lot of driving force to know that you shine as much as you work hard.'
In particular, the mash-up version of Girls' Generation 'Gee' and the 'Touch Challenge' held with Tomorrow X Together and BoyNext Door are drawing attention.
Members wrote "I was so moved and honored to make a challenge with Girls' Generation, a legendary group, and Suyeong complimented us"I respect K-pop idol groups, and I feel that they have risen to the position with constant efforts like us." I want to collaborate with Hive singers, Ariana Grande, Pharrell Williams and Beyonce"We agreed.
Cats Eye will visit Korea, the Philippines, and Japan for about two weeks as a `global trend' and conduct an Asian promotion tour. In particular, he will appear in music broadcasts in succession starting with Mnet 'M Countdown' on the 12th in Korea.
Manong said, `Our ultimate goal is to become the world's No. 1 global girl group. I want to tour around the world and meet my fans``````````````.
