🎉 CORTIS, celebrating 100 days since your debut! The dazzling journey of a monster rookie who rewrote K-POP history
✨ The Miracle of 100 Days: A Sprint Defying the Ordinary
In autumn 2025, the rookie group CORTIS burst onto the K-POP scene like a comet, turning the landscape upside down. They have now reached the monumental milestone of 100 days since their debut! (Truly congratulations!)
From the moment they debuted, CORTIS captured explosive attention, transcending a mere “rookie sensation” to be hailed as “pioneers of K-POP's generational shift”. Particularly in November, their astonishing 320% month-on-month growth in the idol brand reputation rankings, securing a TOP 4 position, proves just how phenomenal their first 100 days have been.
Let's explore the major milestones CORTIS achieved during this brief period and the bright prospects unfolding ahead.
👣 CORTIS's Dazzling 100-Day Journey (Debut to 100 Days)
CORTIS's success stemmed not only from meticulous planning but also from their “core weapon”, which precisely tapped into the fandom's desires.
1. [D+10] Dominating Short-Form Platforms and “Visual Shock”
CORTIS captured the hearts of the “short-form generation” the moment they debuted. Particularly, fan-cam footage showcasing member Gunho's visuals and overwhelming performance exploded virally on TikTok, Reels, and other platforms. Beyond official activities, fan-created challenges garnered immense views, becoming a decisive factor in skyrocketing the group's recognition from the very start.
2. [D+50] “Skilled Rookie” Title Confirmed
Had it ended merely as a flash in the pan, they would have remained a “briefly shining star”. CORTIS solidified their “skilled rookie” title by showcasing unparalleled live skills and stage command beyond their rookie status through music show performances and live content. This proved a core element in offering their fandom “something worth supporting long-term”.
3. [D+90] The Miracle of Entering the Brand Reputation TOP 4
Entering their third month since debut, CORTIS secured a place in the TOP 4 of the Idol Brand Reputation Rankings, one of the most authoritative indicators. This result, achieved by surpassing established major agency groups, was the moment that officially declared CORTIS had now established themselves not merely as newcomers, but as part of the K-POP market's mainstream.
