CORTIS Agency Apologizes for Flight Delay, Denies Jet Bridge Changing Rumors

The agency for K-pop group CORTIS has issued an apology regarding a recent flight delay attributed to the members' late boarding. Big Hit Music stated that the delay for the flight to Paris on June 26th was caused by traffic congestion resulting from a car accident.

"We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to passengers on the same flight due to the delay in boarding," the agency said. However, CORTIS's management actively refuted various rumors circulating online, particularly those suggesting that members changed clothes on the jet bridge at some airports, obstructing passenger movement.

The agency clarified that the situation on the jet bridge, which sparked these rumors, occurred last October upon their return from Japan. At that time, the members were organizing their belongings after all other passengers had disembarked. They also addressed claims of delayed boarding for their departure to Japan in May, asserting that the group boarded well before the closing time. The rumors had suggested that CORTIS's delayed boarding caused the flight's departure to be pushed back.
