How Old Are the Katseye Members?

With the 2023 survival competition The Debut: Dream Academy, HYBE and Geffen Records sought out and trained some of the most promising girl idol trainees from around the world, and then those trainees fought for their positions in a brand new global girl group. (We have a full series summary of The Debut: Dream Academy, if you missed out!) After the final scores were tallied and the dust settled, Katseye was born. Katseye will likely debut in the first half of 2024. To learn how old the Katseye members are right now, here is the current age and birthday for Manon Bannerman, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Rajagopalan, Megan Skiendiel, and Yoonchae Jeong.

How Old the Katseye Members Each Are: Current Age & Birthday

  • Manon is 22 years old and was born on June 26, 2002.
  • Sophia is 21 years old and was born on December 31, 2002.
  • Daniela is 20 years old and was born on July 1, 2004.
  • Lara is 19 years old and was born on November 3, 2005.
  • Megan is 18 years old and was born on February 10, 2006.
  • Yoonchae is 16 years old and was born on December 6, 2007.

As you can see, Yoonchae is the youngest member of Katseye, meaning she is the maknae (if we want to keep using the Korean term). However, everyone in the group is debuting in a very typical age range, at least according to the standards of K-pop. In fact, Katseye will have a slightly higher average age at debut than most K-pop groups, with the exception of Yoonchae.

Meanwhile, Manon is the oldest member of Katseye, but it is not yet clear if she is the leader of the group. Sophia currently seems slightly more likely to be the leader of Katseye, if the group has a leader at all. Also, by bizarre coincidence, two members of Katseye were born on the exact same day as two members of WHIB!

Notably, they are not the only international girl group to be created by a major K-pop company in 2023: JYP Entertainment created the group VCHA, who would also debut in 2024. You can check out how old the VCHA members currently are next. (They’re a little younger than Katseye!)
