CORTIS is continuing its rapid rise in the K-pop industry as its second mini album GREENGREEN, records an impressive 1,969,384 pre-orders as of April 9, according to distributors YG Plus and Universal Records. The milestone was achieved just two weeks after pre-sales opened on March 27, reflecting strong early demand and sustained fan engagement.
CORTIS Achieves Rapid Sales Growth Surpassing Debut Album And Setting Records Globally
The album’s performance shows consistent growth, with over 1.22 million pre-orders secured in the first week and an additional 740,000 in the second. This already surpasses the first-week sales of their debut mini album COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES, which recorded 436,367 copies during its initial release period. The figures highlight the group’s accelerating commercial momentum and expanding fanbase.
CORTIS has been building one of the strongest growth trajectories among fourth-generation K-pop acts. Their debut album went on to surpass 1 million cumulative sales within three months and exceeded 2 million within six months, making them only the second K-pop group in history to turn a debut release into a double-million seller, according to Circle Chart data.
Streaming Success, Social Growth And Global Performances Boost CORTIS Rising Influence Worldwide
Their global popularity is also reflected in streaming performance. Across Spotify, CORTIS has now surpassed 470 million cumulative streams, with standout tracks “GO!” and “FaSHioN” each crossing 100 million streams individually. These results reinforce the group’s growing international presence and digital influence.
On social media platforms, CORTIS continues to expand its reach, surpassing 10 million followers each on Instagram and TikTok. Their visibility has further strengthened anticipation for GREENGREEN, which has already accumulated 657,000 Spotify pre-saves and reached No. 3 on Spotify’s Global Countdown Chart as of April 9, behind major international artists Olivia Rodrigo and Noah Kahan.
The album contains six tracks exploring themes of acceptance and rejection. Promotional activities will continue with the pre-release of the title track “REDRED” on April 20, followed by music show appearances and release events.
CORTIS is also set to perform at Lollapalooza Chicago in August, marking another major step in their expanding global career.
