We got to talking and he said that they just signed a couple of all-girl groups from Korea but really, REALLY wanted to work with Psy more than anything. He was a huge fan and said Psy is one of the hottest acts in the world right now(really?). Then last night I went to Wholefoods with my wife to pick up some groceries and they were playing Psy’s Gangnam Style and 2ne1. Singing in Korean. It was all very weird.

3 WangKon936 August 23, 2012 at 12:35 am: iMe lives in the Miracle Mile district in LA, CA.
4 WangKon936 August 23, 2012 at 12:37 am: Well… it’s all fun and games until some poor song ends up at some bar or bat mitzvah… like The Macarena… or The Chicken Dance.
5 YangachiBastardo August 23, 2012 at 12:40 am: Some dj’s spin their own remixes in Milano too
6 iMe August 23, 2012 at 7:49 am: btw, i worked, stayed and played in gangnam the whole time and i have to say i was definitely NOT impressed with their style. 여의도 is hands down the best part of seoul IMO. it’s not even close.
7 SomeguyinKorea August 23, 2012 at 8:18 am: Told you two weeks ago that he was on his way to be the first to get mainstream attention in the US.
8 Q August 23, 2012 at 11:36 am: David So’s oppa
perv style is a nightmarish deviation from psy.

11 Yu Bum Suk August 23, 2012 at 12:09 pm: “Here are the 11 top Gangnam Style parodies”

Am I so out of touch with current humour or do most of those not actually constitute ‘parody’?

13 guitard August 24, 2012 at 2:07 am: I think David So’s is hands down the best parody version. F’ing hilarious! The only thing I wonder is . . . you really have to understand both English and Korean pretty well to really appreciate it. But it’s closing in on 2 million views – so apparently a lot of people are enjoying it.
14 slim August 24, 2012 at 3:04 am: I’d like to see potato farmers doing Kangwon Style or Namdaemun pushy ajummas doing Kangbuk Style or Nigerian hustlers doing Kyungnidan Style. Endless possibilities!
15 αβγδε August 24, 2012 at 2:48 pm: David So’s version and the JustKiddingFilm version make me horny. Those Asian American girls got back! Must be all the meat and fast food.

(Part TMI, I know.)
16 αβγδε August 24, 2012 at 2:50 pm: BTW, here’s an Associated Press news clip about it:

Psy is interviewed briefly. His English is not bad.
