Group CORTIS (Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Sung-hyun, Geon-ho) has been nominated for the 'Best Group' category at the U.S. '2026 MTV Video Music Awards' (2026 MTV VMA), positioning itself to compete for awards in three categories: 'Best New Artist', 'Best K-Pop', and 'Best Group'. Just one year after their debut, they joined BTS and KATSEYE on the nominee list.

Eight acts were nominated for 'Best Group', including British girl group Flo and American band Fuerza Regida. This category has been won by BTS from 2019 to 2022, BLACKPINK in 2023 and 2025, and SEVENTEEN in 2024.

This year's awards ceremony will be held on September 27 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, U.S., and will be broadcast live on CBS, MTV, and Paramount+.

Meanwhile, CORTIS's mini album extended edition 'GREENGREEN_playextended' has entered Spotify's 'Weeekly Top Albums Global' chart for four consecutive weeks, currently ranking 185th. The album, which includes the new tracks 'PACK IT UP' and 'MONEYMONEYMONEY', became the first K-pop boy group to debut within the past five years to enter this chart at position 149 and has maintained its standing since.

CORTIS will perform at the '2026 The Fact Music Awards' held on the 19th at Busan Asiad Main Stadium, then travel to Japan to appear on the 'Rock in Japan Festival 2026' on the 20th and SBS's 'Inkigayo Live in Tokyo' stage on the 22nd.
