The title track 'REDRED' from CORTIS (CORTIS, Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Sung-hyun, Geon-ho)'s second mini album is gaining global popularity.

The music video for 'REDRED', the title track of CORTIS's second mini album, surpassed 10 million YouTube views at around 4:20 p.m. on the 3rd, just 12 days after its release. Compared to last year's debut album tracks 'GO!' and 'FaSHioN', which reached 10 million views in 27 and 29 days respectively, the group's rapid growth is evident.

True to their identity as the 'Young Creator Crew', the members participated in the 'REDRED' music video as co-directors. Original ideas, compositions, settings, and overall atmosphere from videos they produced themselves in advance were faithfully reflected in the final version. The group roamed through old Korean shops and streets, such as charcoal-grilled samgyeopsal restaurants and arcade halls, unleashing raw energy.

Interest in their performance is growing daily. As of 4:20 p.m. on the 3rd, posts on the global content platform TikTok using the song as background music have surpassed 720,000. The 'Wiggle-Ears Dance,' which involves drawing an X with both arms or waving hands beside the ears, is particularly popular. The conceptual performance film, which showcases the choreography in detail, recorded 4.5 million YouTube views as of May 3, following its release on April 21.

'REDRED' is a song that metaphorically represents what CORTIS aspires to with 'GREEN' and what they guard against with 'RED.' The track features distinctive lyrics and an addictive sound with a new texture. CORTIS became the first K-pop boy group to debut within the past five years to consecutively enter Spotify's weekly and daily global charts on the global audio and streaming platform. They entered the latest 'Weeekly Top Songs Global' (collection period: the 24th–30) at No. 103 and have remained on the charts for 11 consecutive days, reaching No. 100 on the 'Daily Top Songs Global' as of May 1. As of the 3rd, they are maintaining the No. 1 spot on Apple Music's 'Today's Top 100: South Korea' and YouTube Korea's 'Trending Music,' garnering a hot response both domestically and internationally.

Meanwhile, CORTIS will officially release their second mini album 'GREENGREEN' at 6 p.m. on the 4th. The album, which was co-created by the members in music, choreography, and music video production, includes a total of six tracks besides the title track 'REDRED': 'TNT', 'ACAI', 'YOUNGCREATORCREW', 'Wassup', and 'Blue Lips'. On the day of release, they will hold a 'GREENGREEN Release Party' at 8 p.m. at Seoul's Seongdong-gu Esfactory, performing live stages for all the album's tracks.
