CORTIS rings in the New Year with a headline-grabbing fashion moment, landing the first cover of the year.
On December 17, GQ Korea unveiled six January 2026 covers — both group and solo — created with global luxury house Dior, releasing them via its official social channels and website.
Set against an ornate backdrop, the members exude a free-spirited mood. They pull off unexpected pairings like classic tops and velvet jackets with jeans. Their main-character, museum-painting visuals mesmerize, while bold, personality-packed styling — including silk neck bands — amplifies the group's allure. In the solo covers, their calm confidence shines as they gaze steadily into the camera or lounge with ease.
The post-shoot interview appears in the members' own handwriting. Asked what they want most right now, they answered, "An album with a clearer, more defined team color." They added, "We love music so much that cutting sleep to spend more time making it doesn't feel difficult," revealing their drive to create.
Meanwhile, on December 6 at Kaohsiung National Stadium, CORTIS lifted the 'AAA Rookie of the Year' and 'AAA Best Performance' trophies at the '10th Anniversary Asia Artist Awards 2025.'
