CORTIS 'REDRED' hits 18 consecutive weeks at #1 on Spotify Korea, setting K-pop group record

The title track from the group's second mini album also placed 179th on Spotify's Weekly Top Songs Global for the same period—its 18th consecutive week on that chart. On August 27, it climbed back to the top of Spotify's Daily Top Songs Korea for the 110th time overall. Four months after release, 'REDRED' crossed 200 million cumulative Spotify streams. That's roughly half the time it took first-mini-album tracks GO! and FaSHioN to hit the same number (June 26 and July 27, respectively). CORTIS is the only boy group that debuted within the last five years to reach 200 million streams on a single Spotify track, according to the group's agency. The song has also collected 11 wins on domestic music broadcasts.

Mini-1 track JoyRide crossed 100 million Spotify streams on August 26—about a year after its September 8, 2025 release. It's the fifth CORTIS song to reach that threshold. (Five songs past 100M for a group still in its first two mini albums says something.)

On August 24, CORTIS dropped GREENGREEN_playextended, an expanded edition of the second mini album with new tracks PACK IT UP and MONEYMONEYMONEY. All five members—Martin, James, Juhun, Sunghyun, and Gunho—wrote both songs.

The group's first tour, 2026 CORTIS TOUR PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN, launched in July and has moved through South Korea, Canada, and the United States. Japan dates at Kanagawa Pia Arena MM run September 4–6, followed by Rock in Japan Festival 2026 in Chiba on September 20. The run closes with a Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix performance on October 9.
