Top Girl And Boy Group’s New Collaboration Triggers Brutal Backlash
HYBE groups ILLIT and CORTIS have done a new collaboration, but it has come under major criticism and backlash from netizens.
Recently, both ILLIT and CORTIS have been promoting their new songs and on June 2, members Iroha and Martin did a TikTok together where “It’s Me” and “REDRED” were put together to create a mash-up.
@illit_official It’s Me X REDRED 🙅 @CORTIS @illit_official #IROHA #MARTIN #Its_Me #CORTIS_REDRED
The mashup of the songs was then shared on YouTube.
Yet, when the mashup was shared on social media, it was bombarded with a lot of criticism. Some was personal and aimed at HYBE while others genuinely shared how awful they thought the two songs sounded together.
