CORTIS has been appearing on the U.S. Billboard charts for four consecutive weeks, achieving results befitting "this year's best rookie."
On the latest charts released by U.S. music trade publication Billboard (Oct. 11), CORTIS (Martin, James, Juhun, Sunghyun, Geonho)'s debut album COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES ranked No. 2 on the World Albums chart, No. 24 on the Top Current Albums chart, and No. 27 on the Top Album Sales chart. The intro track GO! placed at No. 165 on the Global (excl. U.S.) chart, enjoying long-running popularity.
CORTIS's momentum is also evident on the world's largest streaming platform, Spotify. The team's monthly Spotify listeners (listeners in the most recent 28 days) numbered 7,345,139 (Oct. 5). That is the highest figure among rookies who debuted this year and ranks among the top even compared with established boy groups. In particular, their monthly listeners increased more than 16-fold compared with the day their debut album COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES was released (Sept. 8, about 450,000), showing a large influx of new fandom.
Even after official activities ended, CORTIS has continued to post strong results in the global music market and has received love calls across sectors. First, they announced a collaboration with energy drink brand Red Bull. They are the first K-pop artists to enter a partnership in the brand's history. They were also selected as honorary falconers for LAFC, where Son Heung-min plays, becoming the first Korean artists to receive that recognition, and Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States used the song GO! in its 2025 postseason promotional video, all drawing continued intense interest.
Meanwhile, the music video for CORTIS's album track FaSHioN, posted on HYBE Labels' official YouTube channel on Sept. 8, surpassed 10 million cumulative views around 4 a.m. on the 7th.
