CORTIS's "FaSHioN" passed 200 million cumulative streams on Spotify as of July 27, Big Hit Music announced Wednesday. It's the second track from the group's debut album to cross that line in less than a year - and it isn't even the title track.

"GO!" got there first. The lead single off "Color Outside the Lines" hit 200 million on June 26, about nine months after its September 2025 release - the fastest pace to that mark for any K-pop boy group that has debuted in the past five years. "FaSHioN," a Southern hip-hop cut built on trap beats with lyrics the members wrote about their own lives ("My fit, 5 bucks pants, 10,000 won"), followed at the ten-month mark. Between the two songs and the rest of the album, CORTIS has now logged roughly 1 billion Spotify plays since debuting last September.

The five members - Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyun and Keonho - write and co-produce their own material under a "Young Creator Crew" identity, and the group's momentum hasn't been limited to streaming counts. Their second mini-album, "GreenGreen," is No. 2 on Billboard's Top Album Sales chart and No. 9 on World Albums. Its title track, "RedRed," has spent 13 straight weeks on both the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts. On the Billboard Artist 100 dated August 1, CORTIS climbed seven spots to No. 75.

None of it is slowing down for summer. CORTIS plays the T-Mobile Stage at Lollapalooza in Chicago on August 1 - the only K-pop boy group booked at the festival this year - before opening the North American leg of its first international tour, "Put Your Phone Down," in Toronto on August 4. The tour continues across six cities, including a New York stop, through mid-August.

The group debuted last September with "Color Outside the Lines," which Circle Chart has ranked the best-selling K-pop debut album on record. "GreenGreen" followed in May, and its arrival hasn't slowed the earlier album's numbers - both mini-albums are still adding streams and chart weeks at the same time, an unusual overlap for a group not yet a year into its career.

Two songs to 200 million streams in under a year, from a group that's been together less than twelve months. The album is still adding numbers.
