The K-pop group CORTIS has achieved a significant milestone as their title track 'REDRED' surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify.
As of June 16, the global audio streaming platform Spotify reported that 'REDRED' exceeded 100 million plays, just 57 days after its release on April 20. This marks the fastest record for a song by a boy group that debuted in the last five years.
CORTIS now holds its third song with over 100 million streams, less than a year after their debut. Their previous tracks, 'GO!' and 'FaSHioN' from their first mini-album, also reached 100 million streams in January. 'REDRED' achieved this milestone in about half the time it took 'GO!' to reach 100 million, which was 116 days.
The song has also performed well on domestic and international charts. 'REDRED' topped daily and weekly charts on major music platforms, including Melon, Bugs, and Spotify Korea. CORTIS is the only boy group that made it to the top of the Melon weekly chart this year. Additionally, 'REDRED' became the first song by a boy group debuting in the last five years to enter Spotify's global daily and weekly charts, reaching 36th and 61st positions, respectively.
'REDRED' has garnered widespread popularity, leading sing-alongs at university festivals and during street cheering events for the 2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup. Its catchy rhythm, intuitive lyrics, and the so-called 'flapping dance' have contributed to its viral dance challenge.
Interest in CORTIS is also reflected in their upcoming performances. Their first solo tour, '2026 CORTIS TOUR: Put Your Phone Down,' has sold out all nine shows in Incheon and North America during the membership pre-sale phase. CORTIS will perform a total of 14 shows across nine cities from July to September.
