Singer Sung Si-kyung was left in a state of shock after hearing the ages of the parents of the Cortis group members.
On the 5th, Cortis appeared on the KBS 2TV variety program 'The Seasons - Sung Si-kyung's Eardrum Boyfriend' (hereinafter 'The Seasons').
That day, Geon-ho asked Sung Si-kyung, "We went to an awards ceremony and saw you as the MC. Do you remember?" Sung Si-kyung replied, "I was about to bring that up. I've been the MC at awards ceremonies for 11 years, and Cortis won an award. I said they were doing very well and their songs were great. I told them they would do very well, and they said they already did." He praised them.

Sung Si-kyung then noted that the average age of the Cortis members is 19.2 years, saying, "They are the youngest guests. What year were you born?"
Geon-ho answered, "Myself and Sung-hyun are the youngest, born in 2009. We are roughly middle school graduates." Joo-hoon also said, "Martin and I were born in 2008," while James remarked, "As the eldest, I was born in 2005. I think the age gap of one year makes a big difference," eliciting laughter from the audience.
James fluently stated, "I've been in Korea for about five or six years. I understand almost all of Korean. I just tend to talk a lot," receiving applause from the audience.
Sung Si-kyung asked the Cortis members, "Do you know me?" The members replied, "Aren't you too famous?" Joo-hoon added, "Our parents are huge fans," and Geon-ho chimed in, "Our manager is also a fan."
Sung Si-kyung asked Joo-hoon, "What year were your parents born?" Joo-hoon replied, "My father was born in 1981, and my mother in 1982," leaving Sung Si-kyung flustered. Sung-hyun added, "They are the same age as my father," causing chaos on the scene.
Regarding Sung Si-kyung's content, Sung-hyun honestly said, "I've watched a lot of 'Crazy Restaurants.' I watched them a lot while I was studying Japanese, and it helped with my studies. But I've given up now. It was too confusing studying English and Japanese at the same time."
When asked about his feelings regarding gaining popularity, including surpassing 100 million views, Sung-hyun said, "It's such a huge number that at first, it didn't feel real," while Joo-hoon conveyed his unique sentiment, saying, "It's a deeply moving feeling."
