Why is everyone leaving Kpop? | The Sleepy Idol

This week, KATSEYE drops teasers for "Pinky Up" without Manon and the internet is spiraling over whether she's really gone for good. We're also diving into the rise of AI shipping and self-insert videos in K-pop spaces and whether fandom creativity has crossed a line. NCT's Mark Lee has officially left the group after 10 years, but what's next for him? Plus, we're rounding up all things BTS this week, including our thoughts on their upcoming appearance on Hot Ones. So grab a drink, a snack, and get comfy while we get into it.
