Just nine months after their debut, the group CORTIS was named to Forbes’ \”30 Under 30 Asia\” (2026) list.
Forbes’ \”30 Under 30 Asia\” spotlights 30 individuals or teams under 30 who have had significant influence across Asia and the Pacific. This year, Forbes’ Asia reporters and editors, together with panels of experts, vetted roughly 4,000 candidates across 10 categories. CORTIS — Martin, James, Juhun, Seonghyun and Geonho — was selected in the Entertainment & Sports category.
Forbes highlighted that the members co-create their music, choreography and videos, noting both their global impact on K-pop and the growth potential of this young \”creator crew.\” The group’s name, CORTIS, takes six letters from the phrase COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES, reflecting a commitment to thinking freely beyond conventional rules. They have attracted fans with bold ambition and a distinctive identity.
Their second mini-album, GREENGREEN, sparked a global sensation. The title track \”REDRED\” has remained on Spotify’s Weekly Top Songs Global chart for five consecutive weeks and continues to enjoy sustained success. According to Hanteo Chart, the release sold 2,313,291 copies in its first week, earning double million-seller status.
