CORTIS extended its run on Spotify’s global rankings to four straight weeks with “REDRED,” according to Korean media reports published on May 23. The five-member K-pop boy group’s second mini-album title track ranked No. 115 on Spotify’s latest Weekly Top Songs Global chart, the reports said. Korean outlets including STARNEWS and OSEN described the streak as the longest such run on Spotify’s global chart among K-pop boy groups that debuted within the past five years. ### Which Spotify chart result is at the center of the story? Spotify data cited in reports published on May 23 showed “REDRED” at No. 115 on the latest Weekly Top Songs Global chart. OSEN, in an English version carried by Chosun, said that placement gave CORTIS four consecutive weeks on the weekly global ranking. (chosun.com) Kworb, a chart-tracking site that compiles Spotify chart history, also lists “REDRED” with a global peak of No. 61 and shows the song appearing on Spotify’s global chart history page for the group. Spotify’s own charts hub identifies the platform as the home of its global rankings, though the public overview page does not itself display the song’s week-by-week placements in the search snippet reviewed. (chosun.com) ### What exactly are Korean outlets claiming about the record? STARNEWS and other Korean entertainment outlets framed the four-week run as a category-leading result for newer K-pop boy groups. OSEN’s May 23 report said CORTIS was the only K-pop boy group that debuted within the last five years to break into both Spotify’s global daily and weekly charts and sustain the run for that length. (kworb.net) SBS Entertainment News had reported earlier, on May 11, that CORTIS was the first K-pop boy group debuting within the last five years to enter Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global chart. In that report, SBS said “REDRED” ranked No. 93 on the chart dated May 9 and had stayed there for 18 consecutive days, while also entering the Weekly Top Songs Global chart for a second straight week. (chosun.com) ### How broad is the group’s Spotify momentum beyond one chart line? CORTIS’s monthly Spotify audience was nearing 12 million as of May 23, according to the OSEN report carried by Chosun. The same report said the group had reached nearly 11.99 million monthly listeners. STARNEWS reported on May 21 that CORTIS’s second mini-album “GREENGREEN” had surpassed 100 million cumulative Spotify streams as of May 19. (sbsstar.net) That report said the group had exceeded 11.85 million monthly listeners and was posting daily personal highs on the platform. ### How did “REDRED” build to this point? “REDRED” entered Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global chart on April 22 at No. 184, according to coverage published in late April. (chosun.com) By April 24, another report said the track had climbed to No. 117 on the daily global chart. By May 19, Sports Kyunghyang reported, “REDRED” was No. 103 on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global chart and had logged 28 consecutive days there. (starnewskorea.com) That same report said the song was No. 78 on the Weekly Top Songs Global chart for the May 8-14 tracking period. ### What comes next for CORTIS after the chart milestone? OSEN reported on May 23 that CORTIS was set to perform album tracks “ACAI” and “YOUNGCREATORCREW” on MBC’s “Show! (musicmundial.com) Music Core” on May 23 and SBS’s “Inkigayo” on May 24. The report said the “YOUNGCREATORCREW” stage would mark the song’s first domestic music-show performance. (sports.khan.co.kr) Billboard data cited in the same May 23 coverage also showed CORTIS at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and No. 5 on Artist 100 for the chart dated May 23, adding to the group’s international chart run as “REDRED” remained on Spotify’s global ranking.
