CORTIS turned the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden into a pulsing neon club last week, kicking off their first North American tour with a show telling fans to put down their phones. MARTIN, JAMES, JUHOON, SEONGHYEON and KEONHO repeatedly stepped off the stage and into the crowd, closing the distance between themselves and their fans. At one point, MARTIN even slipped on a fan’s CORTIS ball cap. CORTIS, BIGHIT MUSIC’s newest boy group, debuted in August 2025 with members who were heavily involved in the creative process behind their music. CORTIS’ New York stop came as the group’s momentum continues to build.
