The phrase "Gangnam Style" is a Korean neologism that refers to a lifestyle associated with the Gangnam district of Seoul.  The song and its accompanying music video went viral in August 2012 and have influenced popular culture since then.  "Gangnam Style" is considered by some to be a worldwide phenomenon, while others have praised "Gangnam Style" for its catchy beat and PSY's amusing dance moves in the music video and during live performances in various locations such as Dodger Stadium, The Today Show, Saturday Night Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and Samsung commercials.  On September 17, the song was nominated for Best Video at the upcoming 2012 MTV Europe Music Awards to be held in Frankfurt, Germany.  On September 20, 2012, "Gangnam Style" was recognized by Guinness World Records as the most "liked" video in YouTube history.

The music video became a source of parodies and reaction videos by many different groups including The Oregon Duck, midshipmen from the United States Naval Academy, and the North Korean government.  By the end of October 2012, the song reached the number one position in more than 30 countries including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom.  Although Gangnam Style's reception in Japan remained lukewarm, the song topped China's Baidu 500 download list and was labelled by state-controlled media as a "divine melody".

As the song continued to gain popularity, its dance moves were performed by a few business and political leaders including Google's executive chairman Eric Schmidt, the British Prime Minister David Cameron, and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, who hailed "Gangnam Style" as a "force for world peace", while U.S. President Barack Obama revealed about possible plans to privately perform "Gangnam Style" for his spouse Michelle Obama.  According to the United Nations, PSY has become an "international sensation" through his song "Gangnam Style".

'Gangnam Style' singer Psy: 'I tried an elephant, monkey and kangaroo before the horse dance'

K-pop star tells Oxford Union that it took 30 nights to perfect his equine gallop


Photo: Oxford Union

Mother Teresa, Yoko Ono and Michael Jackson have all done it before, but yesterday (November 7) it was the turn of K-pop juggernaut Psy to take to the podium at Oxford University to discuss his career and global success.

The rapper, whose track 'Gangnam Style' became a global smash with over 650 million hits on YouTube to date, said he invented the horse-style gallop featured in the video after he was offered a spot dancing on a TV show.  "I was so desperate to get noticed I went to a TV production company in Korea and started doing a dance – a crazy dance – up and down the corridors," he said.  It worked, and he was offered a slot on the show.

"I stayed up for 30 nights to find that horse-riding dance," he said.  "I tried every creature: elephant, monkey, kangaroo, snake.  The kangaroo hopping was too slow, so we ended up imitating a horse."

Psy told the packed crowd at the prestigious Oxford Union debating society that he originally trained at the Berklee College of Music in Boston before pursuing his own pop career.  Demand for the event was so great from the society's members that tickets had to be assigned to students via a ballot, which students queuing outside the venue told NME was completely unheard of in the society's 189-year history.

When the 'Gangnam Style' video came to the attention of Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun, he called Psy up immediately.  "I couldn't believe it was him," Psy told the crowd, adding that even though he speaks good English he wanted to keep the Korean lyrics in the song.  "I communicate more effectively in Korean.  When I speak English, I sound so serious, I wanted to show the real me," he said.

Despite that, Psy said his next single will be a mix of Korean and English, "so maybe you will understand the lyrics more".

The event finished when Oxford Union committee members – some of them dressed in white tie for the occasion – took to the stage to do the 'Gangnam Style' dance with their guest.

Eton Boys' Gangnam Style Parody becomes Internet Sensation

By Toyin Owoseje
October 19, 2012

It is regarded as one of the most privileged schools in the country, with Prince William and George Canning amongst its impressive list of former students.

But while many may associate Eton with snotty-nosed rich kids, a group of sixth formers have set out to prove that it doesn't actually take itself too seriously.

The college students have become an internet sensation after posting a video parody of Psy's Gangnam Style on YouTube.

In the five-minute clip, the cheeky boys do the world famous Gangnam Style dance around the Berkshire college dressed in their school uniforms and dark glasses.

They poke fun at the £30,000-a-year school's reputation and mention its famous alumni.

The rap features lines such as: "Me and my homies runnin' around and getting dizzy/ Don't even know what we drank but we'll take it if it's fizzy/ I think it might be Moet at £100 a bottle/ 'Cause here we drink that just like water."

They add: "We may be awkward, frustrated, lonely and insecure but we don't care," and "yah, yah, yah, yah, we've got Eton Style".

Within hours of it being uploaded, the video had been viewed thousands of times and was being shared across all social media platforms.

One commentator said: "Hilarious! Brilliant. Whoever said posh kids were no fun..."

Another wrote: "Lads, terrific effort... absolutely hilarious. Well played."

The pupils released their video earlier after it emerged that Old Etonians David Cameron and Boris Johnson had once performed the Gangnam Style together with their families at Chequers.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
