CORTIS's Debut Track 'GO!' Earns Encore Performance on 'Inkigayo' Amidst Viral Success

Boy group CORTIS is set to revisit the music show stage with their debut album's intro track, 'GO!'.

The five-member group, consisting of Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Seong-hyun, and Geon-ho, will perform 'GO!' on the upcoming episode of SBS's 'Inkigayo' on the 21st. Adding to the excitement, Ju-hoon and Geon-ho are scheduled to appear as special MCs for the broadcast, promising a dynamic show.

'GO!' was first unveiled via its music video on August 11th, prior to the official release of their debut album 'COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES'. The members were deeply involved in the song's creation and choreography, showcasing their artistic contributions. While they promoted their title track 'What You Want' with several music show performances, the buzz surrounding 'GO!' has been undeniable, fueled by a viral dance challenge on social media that has propelled the song up the music charts.

This surge in popularity has led to the encore performance. 'GO!' has surpassed 10 million cumulative streams on Spotify, a testament to its global appeal. After an initial 640,000 streams on its release day, the track saw a steady increase, breaking the 1 million daily stream mark within a week. It also achieved significant milestones on local charts, ranking second on Apple Music Korea's 'Today's Top 100' and breaking into the Melon 'Top 100' real-time chart, a first for a boy group debuting this year.

On TikTok, videos using the 'GO!' audio are nearing 80,000, with the signature 'forward-marching' choreography challenge gaining traction among Gen-Z. Notable figures, including seniors from Big Hit Music like BTS and TXT, as well as ZeroBaseOne's Zhang Hao and Balming Tiger's Omega Sapien, have participated in the trend, amplifying its reach.

CORTIS is scheduled to release a teaser for their album track 'JoyRide' on the 20th at midnight, followed by the full music video on the 21st at midnight, both available on the HYBE LABELS official YouTube channel.

CORTIS is a five-member boy group comprising Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Seong-hyun, and Geon-ho. They made their official debut with the album 'COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES', showcasing strong performances and musical talent. The track 'GO!' particularly highlights the members' direct involvement in songwriting, composition, and choreography, solidifying their unique group identity.
