Idol group CORTIS has surpassed 800 million cumulative streams on Spotify for all songs released to date.

CORTIS (Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Sung-hyun, Geon-ho)'s mini albums 1 and 2, along with the track "Mention Me" from Sony Pictures Animation's "GOAT," totaling 13 tracks, recorded 801.43 million combined streams on Spotify as of the 15th. After reaching 600 million streams on the 11th and 700 million on the 27th in May, the group added another 100 million streams in just 19 days. Less than a year after debut, CORTIS has reached the 800th million stream milestone faster than any K-pop boy group in history.

Especially, the response in the United States has been intense. Over the past four weeks, the United States accounted for the largest share of Spotify listeners by country/region, followed by Indonesia, the Philippines, South Korea, Brazil, Mexico, and Japan. The title track of the mini 2nd album, "REDRED," had approximately 99.96 million streams as of the 15th, nearing the 100th million mark.

Explosive streaming metrics were also reflected in the U.S. Billboard charts. According to the latest Billboard chart released on the 16th (dated June 20), "REDRED" has ranked on the detailed song charts for seven consecutive weeks, including No. 52 on "Global 200" and No. 29 on "Global (Excluding U.S.)." Thanks to these achievements, CORTIS secured a spot at No. 32 on "Artist 100." The group's previous highest ranking was No. 5 (dated May 23).

The mini 2nd album "GREENGREEN," which features the track, has held steady at No. 50 on the Billboard 200 for five consecutive weeks. Among boy groups debuting within the past five years, it has remained on the chart for the longest duration with a single album. On May 23, the album entered at No. 3, achieving a top-three position in the shortest time ever for a K-pop boy group (excluding project teams).

On the specific chart "World Albums," the album reached No. 1. After consecutively topping the chart on May 23 and the 30th, it dropped to No. 2 before climbing back up. In "Top Album Sales," which tracks physical album sales in the local market, the album rose two spots to No. 4. The album has maintained a top-tier position for six consecutive weeks on one chart and five consecutive weeks on the other.

CORTIS will respond to the love of global fans with major stage performances. Starting with two shows at Incheon Inspire Arena on the 18th and 19, the group is preparing for 14 solo concerts across nine regions, including North America and Japan. All nine shows in Incheon and North America, where ticket sales have already begun, sold out quickly. Additionally, CORTIS will perform at the "Allo Bank Festival" in Jakarta, Indonesia, on the 20th (local time). The group will also take the stage at the major U.S. music festival "Lollapalooza Chicago" from July 31 to August 1. CORTIS is the only K-pop boy group invited to this year's festival.
