CORTIS REDRED Reaches Seven Wins With Inkigayo Trophy

CORTIS REDRED reached seven music-show wins after CORTIS took first place with “REDRED” on SBS’s “Inkigayo” broadcast on May 17, 2026. The win gave the song its seventh trophy and completed a full-week sweep of Korean music shows, with the May 17 result reported as a music-show grand slam. ¹

On the May 17 episode, CORTIS competed against AKMU and BABYMONSTER for first place. “REDRED” finished with 5,926 total points, ahead of BABYMONSTER’s “CHOOM” with 4,569 points and AKMU’s “Paradise of Rumors” with 4,169 points. ²

CORTIS REDRED Secures Seventh Trophy

The “Inkigayo” result marked the latest confirmed trophy in a three-day run of reported wins for “REDRED.” On May 15, CORTIS earned the song’s fifth music-show trophy on KBS2’s “Music Bank,” where “REDRED” defeated ILLIT’s “It’s Me” with a reported total score of 12,244 points. ³

On May 16, CORTIS followed with the song’s sixth trophy on MBC’s “Music Core.” The first-place candidates on that broadcast were ILLIT’s “It’s Me,” AKMU’s “Paradise of Rumors,” and CORTIS’s “REDRED.” CORTIS won with 6,830 points. ⁴

The May 17 “Inkigayo” broadcast then confirmed the seventh trophy. Soompi identified the nominees as AKMU, BABYMONSTER, and CORTIS, and reported that CORTIS won with 5,926 points. ¹

Inkigayo Score And Broadcast Context

The “Inkigayo” score placed CORTIS first by a clear margin among the three listed candidates. CORTIS received 5,926 total points, a figure that included real-time voting. BABYMONSTER followed with 4,569 points, while AKMU recorded 4,169 points. ²

The acceptance remarks reported from the broadcast were brief and focused on gratitude. CORTIS credited not only the five members but also the work of many staff members and the group’s fans, identified in the Korean source as “코어,” for the result. ²

The available source material does not include a separate announcement tied to the May 17 win, such as new promotion dates, additional broadcast plans, or a future award schedule. The confirmed news point is the “Inkigayo” first-place result and its role as the seventh trophy for “REDRED.”

Soompi’s report also noted the broader broadcast lineup for the May 17 episode, including performances by aespa, NMIXX, and other artists, but the central result was the first-place finish for CORTIS. ¹

Chart Activity Around REDRED

The music-show run came alongside reported chart activity outside Korean broadcast programs. NewsPim reported that “REDRED” entered Billboard’s Bubbling Under Hot 100 at No. 17 on the chart dated May 16, 2026. The same report said the track ranked No. 43 on the Global 200 and No. 24 on Global Excl. U.S. ⁵

NewsPim also reported that CORTIS’s cumulative Spotify streams had passed 600 million as of May 11. That figure was presented alongside the Billboard chart placements, providing additional context for the song’s activity beyond weekly Korean music shows. ⁵

Earlier in the release cycle, Chosun English, citing materials provided by Big Hit Music, reported that “REDRED” reached No. 1 on YouTube’s Trending Worldwide list one day after release. The report framed that placement as part of the song’s early international momentum before the later sequence of domestic music-show wins. ⁶

Taken together, the available records separate into two categories. The Korean broadcast data confirms trophies, programs, nominees, and points. The Billboard, Spotify, and YouTube details describe chart and platform indicators reported around the same promotional period.

CORTIS’s May 17 “Inkigayo” win is therefore the key confirmed update: “REDRED” reached seven music-show trophies, with the seventh coming from a 5,926-point first-place finish over BABYMONSTER and AKMU.
