BIGHIT Music Group CORTIS’s Visuals Hit With Scathing Backlash At Debut Showcase
The members of BIGHIT Music‘s new group CORTIS have been hit with malicious criticism about their visuals.

Ahead of their official debut, CORTIS released the track “GO!”
On August 18, CORTIS held a showcase ahead of their “official” debut where they chatted with the media, took photos, and performed.



Yet, when the photos were shared, netizens harshly criticized the members’ visuals, with many calling them “chopped” or “ugly,” explaining that they didn’t have any star quality compared to other idols.
