Boy group Cortis (CORTIS) properly showcased the choreography of their new song.

Cortis (Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyun, Geonho) posted the conceptual performance film for the title track 'REDRED' from their 2nd mini album on the HYBE Labels YouTube channel at 9 p.m. on the 21st. While the official music video released on the 20th focused on Korean street scenes, old shops, and the members' daily lives, this one concentrates on displaying the choreography.

The video is set in a shopping center where the music video was filmed. Outdoor corridors, staircases, rooftop ladders, and crosswalks in the area were used as elements to compose the shots. The dance performed by the five members on a horizontally laid crosswalk instantly reveals constant changes in movement patterns. Dynamic camera movements and bold zoom-ins and zoom-outs further maximize the 'raw' energy of the music.

Choreography that expresses the lyrics as they are can also be seen in detail. When singing witty lyrics such as 'that's red-red' and 'palrang-gwi palrang-gwi' (meaning 'gossip'), the members shake both hands around their ears and form an X-shape with their arms. While adopting moves that are easy to follow, Cortis did not give up on their unique style. The members' lively group dance and movements synchronized with the addictive rhythm add to the viewing pleasure. Following their 1st mini album, this release also promises to spark a short-form challenge hit.

Cortis is credited as co-choreographers. The members built up the initial dance drafts one by one and refined every detail through consultations with the production team. They explored 1990s aerobics, shuffle dance, and tecktonik to find inspiration and brainstormed together. At the 'REDRED Release Party' held at Seoul Yes24 Live Hall on the 20th, they shared a behind-the-scenes story: "Initially, there were many blocked parts, but after the final mixing, a sound like something breaking emerged, which enhanced the song's charm and allowed the work to progress quickly."

The unique performances will continue to be seen. Cortis is scheduled to appear on music shows starting with Mnet's 'M Countdown' on the 23rd. They will officially release their 2nd mini album 'GREENGREEN', which includes a total of six tracks including the title song, on May 4. On the same day at 8 p.m., they will also unveil the first live performances of the album tracks through their second release party at Esfactory in Seongdong-gu, Seoul.
