This is what I'm wondering after seeing AllKpop's article on this.
ABC's hit musical drama, "Glee", will be airing their take on Psy's famous hit, "Gangnam Style".
Everyone has done the horse dance by now. Why not the cast of "Glee", too?
Cast admits it was a challenge learning the song in Korean. Let's see what America, the world, and especially the Koreans think about this latest copy.
Just remember, mimicry is the most sincerest way to compliment someone.

Record Breaking Psy
Notch another accomplishment under Psy's belt.
This South Korean artist turned international superstar received a certificate from the Guinness World Book of Records for the Most Likes on his Gangnam Style M/V on YouTube!
It's one thing to break out of your own country and start a trendy dance move, but to be marked down in the Guinness World Book of Records is something entirely on its own! It's a book that many people have tried to get into, but only a rare few have accomplished.
This guy just keeps on breaking records and setting the bar higher for any South Korean artist. Honestly, I don't think that any artist from South Korea will even come close to the sensation that he has caused in just the span of a couple of months. It's just crazy! So much so, even our newly elected President claims he can do Psy's Gangnam Style dance!
Congratulations (μΆν ν΄μ!) to Psy!

The Sensation That is PSY!
On VH-1's Big Morning Buzz, Carrie the MC says that Psy is "ridiculously blowing up" with more than 45 million views on YouTube of his video, "Gangnam Style".
Really? Forty-five million? Last time I checked his video, people were still going, PSY who?
What a break through for Korea! I think he's just about the only artist that has single handedly won the world over. That may be a grand statement, but come on! If stars around the world want to learn his dance and collaborate with him on projects, you gotta believe he's the new black, the IN thing, the shizz. I honestly haven't seen this kind of buzz about any other Korean artist internationally.
I hope he continues to ride his rising star!

Psy at a Dodger's Game
Take a look at who showed up at a recent L.A. Dodger's baseball game?
Poor Psy, his song, "Gangnam Style" is blowing up internationally, it's even hit radio and video sites in the U.S.
He was obviously attending a baseball game as a spectator, but cams spotted him when his song came on. He seemed unsure as to what to do. At first he waved at the camera, but after some prodding (cheering) from the crowd, he began to do his "Gangnam Dance".
What else was cool about it was that others in the stadium were also doing the dance showing further how much this song has turned into quite the trend.
Radio stations where I live are picking up this song and including it on their playlists. People don't even realize he's singing in Korean until he gets to the chorus. Hilarious.
If you haven't seen his video or heard his song yet, umm, where have you been? Google it!
Check out the video below. I don't own it, and sorry for the post in the way. You'll be able to still see him, though. Google it! Go Psy! Go Psy! Go Psy!

Psy Goes Viral
South Korean "sensation", Psy, has gone viral internationally.
His catchy tune, "Gangnam Style" has garnered such international popularity that it has taken many, including Psy, by surprise.
In fact, his video has been watched more than 20 million times on YouTube. Holy smokes oppa! That's a lot of track suit, slick haired, horse riding watching going on!
This former Berklee College of Music graduate thought to just infuse his video with "gusto". Haha, I guess it worked!
His video has even been the subject of many parodies, and in some cases like a friend of mine, covers. And it doesn't seem to be stopping.
My only request is, if politicians are going to use it for political gain, please at least don the proper attire and do Psy justice by wearing a "slick" suit and greased back hair. And don't forget the shades please. Then proceed to ride the pony. Only then will you get some votes. Really.

Psy's Gangnam Style!
OMG, this song and it's music video is everywhere here. From radio stations, to Facebook posts to covers, it's becoming extremely popular!
I'll admit that this song is super catchy. The beat, the catchphrase "Oppa Gangnam Style!" is so repetitious you'll be saying it in your sleep. And the dancing, good lord the dancing, I can totally see a new dance craze.
But wait! Why does that dance move look so familiar?? Oh yeah! It looks like the galloping horse dance from back in the early 2000's. Only now, it's updated to use two hands to "hold the horse" instead of one.
Now don't get me wrong. I'm not bashing Psy for coming up with a repeat move. I just find it funny that a version of the horse dance is making a comeback so soon. Can you just imagine a whole flash mob dancing to this? That would be so cool!
I really like the lyrics. It's interesting cause it's level headed lyrics, but weird because it's with off key scenes.
The lyrics talk about how he is the type of guy, like the guys from Gangnam, that likes girls that are clothed more without any bare skin showing. Like Gangnam guys, he finds girls that are like that sensible, but sexy. Totally his style. Got to respect that. (I'm paraphrasing only a section of the song by the way)
It's hilarity but with a good message.
"Oppa Gangnam Style!" LOL!
I do not own this video. All credit goes to PSY. What a guy that PSY.
