CORTIS made a special appearance at an LAFC match, marking a historic moment as the first Korean artist to be invited as an "Honorary Falconer."
On October 6 (KST), the group attended the Major League Soccer (MLS) match between Los Angeles FC (LAFC) and Atlanta United at BMO Stadium in California.
The members stepped onto the pitch wearing LAFC jerseys emblazoned with Son Heung-min's name and number, celebrating their connection with the Korean football star who currently plays as a forward for the team.
As part of the opening ceremony, CORTIS took on the role of "Honorary Falconer"—a symbolic tradition at LAFC home games where the guest launches the team's mascot falcon to signal the start of the match.
Global broadcasters introduced the moment, saying, "This is a meaningful exchange between LAFC and prominent Korean artists," and "We hope this experience brings good energy to both CORTIS and LAFC."
The match ended in a 1–0 victory for LAFC, making CORTIS the team's lucky charm of the night. Their appearance followed their feature in a Major League Baseball (MLB) promotional video, further cementing their growing global presence.
Meanwhile, CORTIS recently signed an exclusive partnership with Red Bull and is set to attend the Red Bull Dance Your Style World Final on October 11.
