Cortis successfully concluded the Seoul concert of their 1st anniversary debut tour, debuting new songs 'PACK IT UP' and 'MONEYMONEYMONEY'

CORTIS (Martin, James, Juhun, Seonghyeon, Geonho) held a solo concert at Hwa-jeong Gymnasium, Korea University, Seoul, to celebrate their 1st anniversary since debut. The concert took place over two days, August 22 and 23, marking the Seoul stop of their first tour across nine cities and commemorating their 1st anniversary. The performance was live-streamed to 71 countries and regions through the global fan platform Weverse. CORTIS opened the stage with the title track ″What You Want″ from their first mini album, recreating the treadmill choreography they performed at debut. They then performed songs released over the past year, including ″REDRED,″ ″YOUNGCREATORCREW,″ ″GO!,″ and ″JoyRide.″ Notably, they premiered two new songs, ″PACK IT UP″ and ″MONEYMONEYMONEY,″ from the expanded version of their second mini album, GREENGREEN_playextended, which was released at midnight on the 24th. The new song ″PACK IT UP″ was inspired by a freestyle session while packing at their dorm before an overseas schedule, a scene also featured in the video ″Pack Up Bro″ released last August. ″MONEYMONEYMONEY″ is a hip-hop track reflecting the honest thoughts about money from the members in their teens and twenties, based on their experience attending Paris Fashion Week in July. All members participated in writing and composing both songs. The expanded version of the second mini album, GREENGREEN_playextended, consists of the original six tracks plus two new tracks. The physical album will be released as the ″CORTIS Ball ver.,″ which includes a mini CD. The CORTIS Ball is a stretchy doll made in various colors, designed by modifying the team’s official logo. After the concert, CORTIS shared, ″We were so happy to return to the place where we held our first release party and celebrate our birthday with you all. It was fun and meaningful to feel connected with you. Let’s continue to be together for the 2nd and 3rd anniversaries as well.″ They also said, ″We feel proud of how much we have grown in a short time during the tour. We were deeply moved to see the songs we created together in the studio resonate in such a large venue and many people singing along.″
