Group CORTIS's debut song 'What You Want' has surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify.

As of August 24, the title track from CORTIS's first mini album 'What You Want' has accumulated over 100 million plays on the global audio and music streaming platform Spotify, nearly one year after its release on August 18 last year.

With this achievement, CORTIS now has four songs with over 100 million streams, following 'GO!', 'FaSHioN', and 'REDRED'.

'What You Want' expresses the ambition to seize what one desires without hesitation. The song showcases confidence and energy typical of a debut track, and it has gained attention for its performance on a treadmill.

CORTIS also performed this song during their one-year anniversary concert '2026 CORTIS TOUR BIRTHDAY PARTY' held at Korea University's Hwajeong Gymnasium on August 22 and 23.

The chart performance of their mini albums continues to be strong. According to the latest Billboard chart released on August 29, CORTIS's second mini album 'GREENGREEN' reached No. 155 on the main album chart 'Billboard 200', remaining on the chart for 15 consecutive weeks.

The album also achieved notable rankings on detailed charts, placing second on the 'World Albums' chart and 12th on the 'Top Album Sales' chart. Their first mini album ranked sixth on the 'World Albums' chart.

The title track of the second mini album, 'REDRED', reached No. 138 on the 'Global 200' chart and No. 74 on the 'Global Excl. U.S.' chart. On the 'Artist 100' chart, they secured the 90th position.

Additionally, CORTIS released an extended version of their second mini album 'GREENGREEN_playextended' on August 24, featuring two new songs.

The new track 'PACK IT UP' evolved from a freestyle exchange among the members while packing their bags at their dormitory. Another new song, 'MONEYMONEYMONEY', reflects the realistic thoughts of the members in their teens and twenties about making money.

All five members participated in writing and composing both songs, capturing the emotions and experiences of current CORTIS in the album.
