CORTIS's music has been streamed more than 100 million times on the global audio and music streaming platform Spotify this year alone.
This is a record set just 45 days after the new year began (on the Jan. 1–Feb. 15 chart). It is an achievement made with just seven tracks: the six songs included on the debut album "COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES" and the recently released animation "GOAT" insert song "Mention Me."
CORTIS's (Martin, James, Juhun, Sunghyun, Geonho) remarkable momentum can also be seen on the U.S. Billboard charts. According to Billboard's latest chart (Feb. 21) released by the U.S. music trade publication on the 18th, their debut record landed at No. 12 on the "World Albums" chart, marking 23 consecutive weeks on the chart. The album's steady popularity stands out even as it enters its sixth month since release.
Overseas love calls and stages at major performances drove the songs' buzz. Recently, CORTIS became the first K-pop act to headline the "NBA Crossover concert series" and to perform the halftime show at the "2026 Ruffles® NBA All-Star Celebrity Game," leaving a strong impression.
Meanwhile, on the 15th, CORTIS took home the rookie award at the 33rd Hanteo Music Awards 2025 held at the KSPO Dome in Olympic Park, Seoul. They are scheduled to make a comeback with a new release in April. [Photo] Big Hit Music [OSEN]
