The announcement comes days before the worldwide premiere of the group’s first documentary, “KATSEYE: WILD HEARTS,” on Wednesday and the release of its third EP, “WILD,” on August 14. Laforteza is the second KATSEYE member to take a temporary hiatus for mental health and wellness reasons. KATSEYE is a Los Angeles-based multinational pop group known for combining K-pop’s training model with Western pop influences. The name KATSEYE is derived from the chrysoberyl gemstone known as cat’s eye, a reference to the group’s diverse talents and evolving artistry. —Reporting by Danielle Broadway; Editing by Mark PorterREAD: ‘KATSEYE: WILD HEARTS’ trailer released ahead of global cinema debut
