TMA Triple Crown: Rookie Award, Grand Prize, and More

Rising K-pop sensation Cortis made history at a major music awards show, clinching both the Rookie Award and the Grand Prize in a stunning display of their growing influence.

At the star-studded 'The Fact Music Awards' held on September 19 at Busan's Asiad Main Stadium, Cortis swept three prestigious accolades. The group bagged the Rookie Award for 'Next Leader,' the main prize for 'Artist of the Year,' and the coveted Grand Prize for 'Record of the Year.' This unprecedented feat marks the first time in the award show's history that an act has simultaneously claimed both the Rookie Award and the Grand Prize.

Visibly moved, the members of Cortis shared their heartfelt appreciation: "We're living our dreams thanks to the unwavering support from our fans. We're incredibly grateful to everyone who's been cheering us on." They continued, "Our mini-album 'GREENGREEN' received so much love this year, opening our eyes to a wider world. We're truly blessed to find happiness doing what we love. We promise to keep pushing boundaries as Cortis."

The group electrified the audience with performances of 'TNT' and their title track 'REDRED' from their latest mini-album. Cortis showcased their vocal prowess and tight-knit choreography, while their vintage-inspired fashion choices and edgy dance moves perfectly complemented the songs' raw energy.

Cortis has been making waves globally, securing nominations for 'Best Group,' 'Best New Artist,' and 'Best K-Pop' at the recent MTV Video Music Awards in the U.S. Their trophy case also includes the main prize 'Ultimate 12' and the Grand Prize 'Record of the Year' from July's KMA (KM Chart Awards).
