Vevo, the world’s leading music video network, recently released KPOP group KATSEYE’s live performances of their “Touch” and “Debut” singles as part of Vevo’s “DSCVR Artists To Watch” 2025 campaign. Now in its eleventh year, the program is a highly curated selection of global artists that Vevo has tipped to break through to the mainstream.

“Touch” reveals the group’s softer side and has connected around the globe. KATSEYE performed “Touch” and “Debut” for the first time at this year’s KCON, followed by their national TV debut on Good Morning America, and released their EP, “SIS (Soft Is Strong)” on August 16th. In their own words, KATSEYE says, “Being a DSCVR artist is an opportunity to prove what we’ve got. We pour out our passions into our music and performances; DSCVR has become a space to make it known to the world.”
Cynthia Todd (Senior Manager, Talent Booking) added, “As music continues to become more and more universal, highlighting KATSEYE in this year’s class was a no-brainer. These women are the embodiment of a global girl group created by a K-Pop strategy rooted in self-discipline and undeniable work ethic. Their debut project, SIS, has something for everyone—from girl power anthems to vulnerable tracks highlighting full-group harmonies. KATSEYE wouldn’t be KATSEYE without all six members, and we’re so excited to see what 2025 has in store for them.”

“Our annual DSCVR Artists to Watch list epitomizes the curatorial expertise and editorial support Vevo offers emerging artists to help them break through,” says JP Evangelista, SVP, Content, Programming & Marketing, Vevo. “While we provide this support for artists daily, the selection process for this predictive list in particular requires a special mix of art and science on a global scale. Our seasoned team of tastemakers diligently comb through each submission across all genres, looking at various trends and datasets, while also tapping into their musical instincts. In addition to the list, the exclusive live performances that we shoot with these artists in the Vevo studios help them build and diversify their visual catalog for further exposure. Making our competitive list is no easy feat. Congratulations to this next class of future stars from around the world!”
KATSEYE
KATSEYE, the first-ever global girl group formed using K-Pop artist development methodologies, is out to change modern pop. Ranging in age from 16 to 22 and coming from immensely different cultures, the six members of KATSEYE are: DANIELA (USA); LARA (USA); MANON (Switzerland); MEGAN (USA); SOPHIA (Philippines); and YOONCHAE (South Korea).
Now based in Los Angeles, KATSEYE’s members emerged from 120,000 submissions that were narrowed down to a selection of 20 contestants to participate in The Debut: Dream Academy, an intensive program developed jointly by HYBE and GEFFEN. They debuted in June with their first single aptly named “Debut” as their official introduction to the world and saw the group taking mainstream pop head-on.
The years-long process of creating this one-of-a-kind international girl group is the subject of a Netflix documentary series ‘Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE’ which premiered on August 21st and is a compelling portrayal of their journey to international stardom. With so much more on the horizon through 2025, KATSEYE is on their way to transcending national, cultural, and artistic boundaries.
