CORTIS Captivates Japanese Audiences at Tokyo Girls Collection and Beyond

The K-pop group CORTIS (Martin, James, Ju-hoon, Seong-hyun, Geon-ho) has been making waves in Japan, delivering dynamic performances at major events and steadily expanding their global presence. Their recent appearances at the Tokyo Girls Collection and other Japanese festivals have solidified their growing fanbase in the archipelago.

Performance at Tokyo Girls Collection 2026

CORTIS performed at the ’42nd Mynavi Tokyo Girls Collection 2026 SPRING/SUMMER’ held on March 14th at the First Gymnasium of Yoyogi National Stadium in Japan [1]. Tokyo Girls Collection, established in 2005, is Japan’s leading fashion and music festival [3]. The group showcased their distinctive style, performing a five-song setlist including their global hit “GO!”, as well as “What You Want”, “JoyRide”, “FaSHioN”, and “YOUNGCREATORCREW” [3]. They engaged with the audience, interacting with fans while performing and even addressing them in Japanese, expressing gratitude for their enthusiastic support and teasing their upcoming second mini album, ‘GREENGREEN,’ set for release on May 4th [3].

Additional Japanese Performances and Expanding Reach

Prior to Tokyo Girls Collection, CORTIS performed at the “D.U.N.K. Showcase in K-Arena Yokohama 2026” on March 13th at K-Arena Yokohama [3]. During this performance, they debuted their fresh song, “YOUNGCREATORCREW” to a Japanese audience for the first time [3].

Global Recognition and Upcoming Releases

CORTIS’s influence extends beyond Japan. In February, they became the first K-pop act to headline the NBA Crossover concert series, a music festival hosted by the National Basketball Association [3]. Their debut album, ‘COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES,’ has surpassed 400 million cumulative streams on Spotify as of February 26th [3] and achieved “double million seller” status within six months of its release, exceeding 2 million copies sold (based on Circle Chart data) [3].
