Big Hit Music's rookie group CORTIS has unveiled a captivating performance film for their debut track 'FaSHioN,' generating significant buzz among global fans.

The conceptual performance film for 'FaSHioN,' a B-side from their debut album, was released on the HYBE Labels YouTube channel on September 9th. While the official music video captivated viewers with its scenic New Zealand backdrop, the performance film shifts focus to the five members' dynamic choreography in a stark white studio.

Set to a trap beat infused with southern hip-hop, the members of CORTIS unleashed overflowing charisma and explosive energy. The relentlessly paced choreography, coupled with seamless transitions and stylish visual effects, creates a video that's impossible to look away from. The performance cleverly incorporates gestures mimicking pulling a t-shirt or adjusting a tie, perfectly aligning with the song's title, 'FaSHioN.'

Notably, the members were deeply involved in the creative process, with James leading the charge as a co-choreographer alongside the entire group. Martin, Juhoon, Sungyeon, and Gunho also contributed to the song's creation, showcasing their multifaceted talents. The lyrics, which candidly express their lifestyle using fashion as a theme, have resonated strongly with listeners from the same generation.

CORTIS's momentum continues to build. As of October 10th, the official music video for 'FaSHioN,' released on September 8th, had entered the 'Top 30' trending music videos on YouTube in 12 countries and regions, including South Korea, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Indonesia. The video also secured the 44th position on the 'Daily Trending Music Videos Global' chart, making CORTIS the only K-pop boy group to chart on the 'Top 50' on that day.

The debut album, 'COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES,' is also proving to be a hit. It held the second position on the Hanteo Chart's daily album chart for two consecutive days and surpassed 290,000 cumulative sales within just two days of its release, signaling the powerful arrival of a new force in the industry.

CORTIS is a five-member boy group under Big Hit Music, who debuted on September 7, 2023, with their album 'COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES'. The group consists of members Martin, James, Juhoon, Sungyeon, and Gunho. The name 'CORTIS' is an acronym for 'Collective Of Revolutionary Thinkers In Suits', signifying their ambition to present original music and performances.
