This is absolutely EVERYWHERE at the minute, it's crazy. The Korean rapper/ pop singer Park Jae Sung (PSY) is previously known for his humorous pop videos and stage performances.
Gangnam style was released in mid-July and by September 1st it was the most viewed K-pop video in history and has been viewed over 75 millions times worldwide and counting. It has indeed gone 'viral!' It's on every blog, news articles etc... I wasn't going to put it on here but I thought it is a significant song/moment for the Korean wave. When I have left Korea and I am reading my blogs I think I will appreciate the memories this post will bring!
Lyrics in English
Eh- sexy lady, Oppan gang-namseutayil
Eh- sexy lady,Oppan gang-namseutayilEnglish Translation:
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh
A girl who looks quiet but plays when she plays
A girl who puts her hair down when the right time comes
A girl who covers herself but is more sexy than a girl who bares it all
A sensable girl like that
I’m a guy
A guy who seems calm but plays when he plays
A guy who goes completely crazy when the right time comes
A guy who has bulging ideas rather than muscles
That kind of guy
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Now let’s go until the end
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh
On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two
On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two
You know what I’m saying
Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh
I like the video because I recognize a lot of the places in it!
