BigHit Music launches new boy group CORTIS ahead of BTS' comeback — here's all you need to know
BigHit Music is officially stepping into its next chapter, and the timing couldn't be more perfect. With TXT continuing to grow and BTS gradually preparing for a full-group comeback, the label is ready to introduce something brand new. Their next project? A fifth-generation boy group that promises to shake things up in a major way. From music and lyrics to choreography and visuals, these boys are said to be hands-on from the start. Meet CORTIS: BigHit's new boy group of multi-talented teens The new group is called CORTIS, and it features five members: Martin, James, Juhoon, Seonghyeon, and Keonho. All teenagers but already involved in some major projects behind the scenes, including their work for TXT and ENHYPEN. It's clear BigHit isn't just introducing pretty faces - they're debuting producers, writers, and performers all rolled into one. The company calls them a "young creator crew," and from the sound of it, they won't be following the usual path. No set positions, no fixed formulas. Instead, CORTIS is being built around shared creativity and flexibility, letting each member shine where they're strongest. From whispers to the spotlight: How the debut came together Fans have been speculating for months about BigHit's next boy group. It all started back in April when reports had first surfaced about a new team that was in the works. By June, rumours turned into confirmations - people in the industry were already buzzing about a group in final prep stages. Then came mid-July, when BigHit finally pulled back the curtain and introduced the members, along with a confirmed debut date: August 18, 2025. It's been six years since TXT's debut, so naturally, excitement is sky-high. 🎼CORTIS🔗 #코르티스 BigHit's trio of boy groups is now complete With the arrival of CORTIS, BigHit Music officially has three active boy groups under its name. There's BTS, the global trailblazers who redefined what it means to be a K-pop group. Then TXT, who carved out their own identity with youth-driven narratives and a genre-bending discography. Now, CORTIS enters the scene, not as the younger sibling, but as a new creative experiment. Each group represents a different stage of BigHit's growth - and together, they form a powerful trio. What's interesting is how distinct each of them feels. Where BTS commands arenas, and TXT captures emotion through storytelling, CORTIS seems ready to turn the whole process inside out. What to expect from CORTIS' debut So what exactly will CORTIS bring on August 18? While full details are still under wraps, we know this much: the boys aren't here to play it safe. Some of them have already been credited on major releases. Martin and James, for example, helped shape tracks like Deja Vu and Outside. That's no small feat. It means they're walking in with real-world experience and creative confidence. The group's debut is being hyped as a mix of self-written songs, bold concepts, and choreography that comes from the members themselves - not outsourced professionals. It's rare to see a debut group given this much control, but BigHit seems ready to take that risk. – hello! this is a new acc dedicated to bighit new boygroup 'CORTIS' (Color Outside The Lines' 🎸 ; updating news info pic vids etc. please kindly show your love and support by RT and fav on our tweets, thank you! 📢#CORTIS #코르티스#BIGHITNBG #BIGHIT_NEW_BOYGROUP Meanwhile, BTS is getting ready to return As the industry buzzes over CORTIS, there's another reason fans are paying close attention to BigHit right now - BTS. With all members having completed their military service, whispers of a group comeback have only gotten louder. The latest word is that they're eyeing a spring 2026 comeback. The group is rumoured to be working with several producers in Los Angeles. Since their hiatus in 2022, they've each grown so much in their solo work, and fans are expecting their return to be more than just nostalgic, as it promises to be a new chapter, backed by years of experience, reflection, and evolution.

Lee Dahae's Pink Summer Glow-Up & Power Couple Goals: The K-Drama Life Young Women Love!
Lee Dahae's Pink Summer Fashion First: Dahae's Pink Summer Formula Summer in Seoul can be blazing, but Lee Dahae keeps things cool and charming with her dreamy pink look. During her "Shinlang School" shoot, she wore a sleeveless pastel pink knit with a chiffon maxi skirt-a style that blended comfort, sophistication, and a whimsical, vintage feel. Minimal accessories? Check-a ribbon-tied rattan bag, loose wavy hair, and a barely-there makeup look (peachy lips and a natural glow). Simple, refreshing, and made for real life. The magic is in her subtleties: instead of bold prints or heavy jewelry, Dahae trusts in gentle hues and airy fabrics, letting her personality do the talking. "Pretty" isn't about sparkle, it's about the right mood. Power Couple Energy: Marriage, Mandarin & Cross-Border Stardom Dahae's not just a fashion icon-she's living relationship dreams many admire. Born in 1984, she married singer Se7en on May 6, 2023, after eight years of dating. Their wedding was K-drama come to life, star-studded and flooded with well-wishes, echoing the glitz and feels of a Bollywood blockbuster. But this story goes further. Dahae is a fluent Mandarin speaker-rare for a Korean celebrity-and has carved a second career in Shanghai's entertainment and business world. She's starred in Mandarin dramas, naturally debatably outshining many who need dubbing, and more recently, became a senior adviser at a Chinese live-commerce firm, helping introduce Korean brands to a new audience. From acting to commerce, from Seoul to Shanghai, she adapts, innovates, and inspires, especially to young fans dreaming global dreams. Style Secrets Decoded: The Dahae Formula For Standing Out You don't need K-drama budgets to channel Dahae's glow. Here's what young Indian women can borrow from her look: Pastel Power: Pale pinks, baby blues, and soft lavenders flatter most Indian skin tones. Skip neon for summer-friendly pastels. Breezy Fabrics: Lightweight cottons, voile, and chiffon are life-savers in humid weather. Mimic Dahae's maxi skirts for an ethereal vibe-pair them with easy tanks or sleeveless knits. Minimal Accessories: One unique bag or a simple ribbon in the hair often trumps a pile of jewelry. Keep the look focused. Natural Hair and Makeup: Let your hair fall naturally, add soft waves if you can. Pick blush and lip shades that accentuate your features, not overshadow them. Play with Volume: Flowy skirts-like Dahae's-bring drama without heat. Balance with a fitted top for proportion. Glow Up Like Dahae: Tips For Indian Youth To Stand Out Mix Tradition & Trend: Combine modern silhouettes with traditional prints or jewelry-think a chiffon skirt with chunky silver Jhumkas. Color Play: Choose your outfit base according to the event. Brighten things up for daytime (pastels, whites) and go deeper-toned for evenings (mauve, indigo). Confidence is Key: Fashion isn't just about clothes, it's attitude. Walk tall, smile, and let your personality shine-just like Dahae does in her shoots. Adapt Local: Don't hesitate to swap the skirt for wide-leg palazzos or a kurta set in summer-friendly pastels.
