Cortis has achieved another impressive preorder milestone ahead of its Monday release. The group’s second EP titled Greengreen recorded 2.39 million preorders as of April 30. Distributors YG Plus and Universal Reports confirmed these figures shortly before launch. Consequently, this preorder milestone positions Cortis for a second consecutive double-million seller. The group achieved the same feat with its debut release. Therefore, expectations are running high for the new album.
The group unveiled four teaser videos from Greengreen before release. These clips preview tracks titled TNT, Acai, Wassup, and Blue Lips. Each video showcased both music and visual direction for the songs. Furthermore, each teaser ended with a hint at upcoming music video releases. In an unusual move for K-pop, Cortis plans five music videos. The EP contains six tracks in total. The lead track Redred already received its video on April 20. Consequently, this preorder milestone reflects strong fan anticipation for visual content.
All members participated in songwriting, choreography, and visual production. This reaffirms the group’s identity as a young creator crew. Specifically, leader Martin wrote Blue Lips during his trainee years. The song explores themes of dreams and emotional scars. Global interest in the album is also evident from streaming data. On Spotify, presaves for Greengreen surpassed 1 million before release. This placed the group at number two on the Countdown Chart Global. Redred has already entered Spotify’s global weekly and daily charts. This achievement remains rare among new boy groups. The song landed Cortis on the Top Songs Global chart for the first time. That chart serves as a key barometer of global music trends. Redred ranked number 98 on that list.
Greengreen will release at 6 p.m. on Monday across all major streaming platforms. On the same day, Cortis will hold a live release party in Seoul. The event starts at 8 p.m. local time. The group will perform all six tracks for the first time there. Hybe Labels’ YouTube channel will livestream the event. The global fan platform Weverse will also carry the broadcast. This preorder milestone has generated significant industry attention. Analysts note that Cortis appeals to a young, globally connected audience. The group’s hands-on creative approach differentiates it from typical K-pop acts. Moreover, the five music videos strategy mirrors Western pop marketing trends.
Looking ahead, Cortis will likely continue its rapid growth trajectory. The preorder milestone suggests strong first-week sales potential. Industry observers predict the album will debut high on global charts. The group’s fanbase has expanded significantly since their debut. Consequently, this release could solidify Cortis as a leading fourth-generation boy group. The live release party will provide additional promotional momentum. Fans worldwide can participate via the livestream. Therefore, the preorder milestone marks only the beginning of a busy promotional cycle. Cortis has proven that creative control and fan engagement drive commercial success.
