CORTIS earn first Japan Gold cert as GREENGREEN charts 4 weeks on Billboard 200

CORTIS earned their first Gold certification from the Japan Record Association when mini album 2 GREENGREEN surpassed 100,000 cumulative shipments in Japan in May. The group debuted in August 2025.

GREENGREEN dropped May 4. By May 7 it sat at #1 on the Oricon Daily Album Ranking. On May 13, it peaked at #4 on Billboard Japan Hot Albums. Title track REDRED topped Billboard Japan Hit Seeker Songs that same day and landed at #13 on the chart's first-half ranking (November 24, 2025 through May 24, 2026).

The album entered the Billboard 200 at #3 on the May 23 chart. Four weeks later—the June 13 chart, released June 9—it sat at #46 for its fourth consecutive week on the list. GREENGREEN held #2 on Billboard World Albums for five straight weeks. It spent four weeks at #6 on Billboard Top Album Sales. REDRED reached #54 on the Billboard Global 200 and #28 on Billboard Global (excluding the US). CORTIS rose eight spots to #19 on the Artist 100 this week. Their personal best on that chart is #5, set May 23 and held for four weeks running.

First-week sales hit 2,313,291 copies. That's more than five times the previous album's figure. Among K-pop releases this year, GREENGREEN ranks #2, behind only BTS's fifth studio album Arirang. REDRED topped domestic charts on Melon and Bugs.

Spotify monthly listeners for CORTIS reached 12.33 million as of May 31. That's the third-highest all-time count recorded by a K-pop boy group.

CORTIS are a five-member group: Martin, James, Juhun, Sunghyun, and Gunho. All five participated in co-creating GREENGREEN.
