CORTIZ is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after K-pop groups in the global music scene, earning widespread attention from major U.S. media outlets.
The group will perform at "iHeartRadio Live" on October 16 (KST) at the iHeartRadio Theater in Los Angeles. The event is hosted by iHeartMedia's digital radio network and has featured numerous international pop superstars over the years.
Expanding Presence Across U.S. Media
CORTIZ is also set to appear on Apple Music Radio's "The Zane Lowe Show" the same day, where they'll share insights into their music and creative process. Their inclusion in these high-profile platforms underscores the group's rising popularity across the American market.
The surge of invitations reflects CORTIZ's growing global influence. The group recently made headlines as the first K-pop act to sign a partnership with Red Bull, solidifying their brand appeal beyond music.
Connecting with Fans Through Local Events
CORTIZ has been strengthening their connection with international fans through direct engagement. On October 12, they held a "GO!" dance workshop in Los Angeles — inspired by their breakout track — which drew enthusiastic participation from local fans.
Their debut album also achieved impressive results, debuting at No. 15 on the Billboard 200 (as of September 27), cementing their foothold in the U.S. market.
(Cultural context: Performing on platforms like iHeartRadio and Apple Music's "Zane Lowe Show" marks a major breakthrough for K-pop artists, as both are considered key gateways to mainstream recognition in the global pop industry.)
