"Gangnam Style" is a 2012 Korean pop single by the South Korean rapper PSY. It is widely praised for its humor, catchy rhythm[1] as well as Psy's unusual dance moves. The song was released on July 15, 2012, where it debuted at number one on the Gaon Chart.[2] The music video has been viewed over 190 million times as of September 17, 2012,[3] making itYouTube's most watched K-pop video.
It has been shared on the internet by celebrities including T-Pain and Katy Perry, covered by others such as Nelly Furtado[4] and Maroon 5,[5] and has been featured in international media outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times and CNN International. (See Reception)
Around early September, "Gangnam Style" flash mobs started to appear in various capitals of the world, and "Gangnam Style" has also become the source of parodies and reaction videos by, among others, The Oregon Duck and sailors from the United States Naval Academy. Psy has brought the "Gangnam Style" dance to various locations includingDodger Stadium, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and Samsung commercials. (See Impact)
On September 17, "Gangnam Style" was nominated for Best Video at the upcoming 2012 MTV Europe Music Awards that will be held in Frankfurt, Germany.[6] This makes Psy the second South Korean artist to appear at the awards after BIGBANG took the the inaugural "Best Worldwide Act" at the 2011 MTV Europe Music Awards in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Background

"Gangnam Style" is a Korean language colloquialism that refers to a luxurious lifestyle associated with the Gangnam district,[7] an affluent and trendy area of Seoul,[8] where people are trendy, hip and exude a certain "swag". In a CNN interview, PSY has compared Gangnam to Beverly Hills, California.[9] The term was listed in Time Magazine's weekly Vocabulary List as a manner associated with lavish lifestyles in Seoul’s Gangnam district.[10]
The song is a satire of conspicuous consumption in South Korea - such satire is unusual in South Korean music, especially in K-Pop, known for bubblegum pop[11] The song is about "the perfect girlfriend who knows when to be refined and when to get wild."[12] The song's refrain "오빤 강남 스타일 (Oppan Gangnam seutail)" has been translated as "Big brother is Gangnam style", with Psy referring to himself;[13][14] "oppa" is a Korean phrase used by females to refer to an older male friend or older brother.[15] South Korea has a high amount of conspicuous consumption. The country's credit card debt is 155% of its disposable income, and such debt has been encourages by the government to help drive economic growth. One of the most common types of conspicuous consumption is expensive coffee. Women known as Doenjangnyeo are known to spend large amounts on expensive coffee while eating cheap Ramen meals. This is why Psy draws attention to drinking coffee in the song.[11]
"Gangnam is a territory in Seoul, Korea. I describe it as noble at the daytime and going crazy at the night time. I compare ladies to the territory. So — noble at the daytime, going crazy at the night time — and the lyric says I am the right guy for the lady who is like that," said Psy.[16]
The lyrics are by Psy, music by Psy and Yoo Gun-hyung, and it was arranged by Yoo Gun-hyung, who is a well-known producer in South Korea and also collaborated with Psy in the past. In K-Pop, it's unusual for an artist to write his own music and choreograph his own video as Psy does.[11]

Music video

The music video shows PSY dancing a comical horse-riding dance and appearing in unexpected locations around Gangnam such as an outdoor yoga session and a hot tub. It features a "skewering [of] the Gangnam image" by the "non-Gangnam PSY"; this is recognizable to Korean viewers.[17]
In K-Pop, it's routine to have a lot of cameos by celebrities in a music video. Placing cameos is the reason for the dance scenes in the elevator and parking garage.[11] Making appearances in the music video are:
  • 4minute member Hyuna playing Psy's love interest and appearing in the two final dance sequences.
  • Hwang Min-woo, a 5 year old boy who is seen dancing at the beginning of the video. During an interview with CNN, Psy stated that "the night before the music video shoot, I was watching Korea's Got Talent and saw him dance to Michael Jackson. His moves were ridiculous. So we called him up and asked him to be in the music video, which was shooting the very next day, and he came and it all worked out."[9] He has been praised for his eye-catching dance moves that has received a lot of attention from viewers.[18]
  • Comedian/television personality, Korea's Nation emcee Yoo Jae-Suk, in a dance duel with Psy.
  • Comedian/television personality, Noh Hong-cheol, dancing in an elevator with his trademark pelvis-thrusting, with Psy rapping underneath him.
  • BIGBANG members Seungri and Daesung were also in the music video, appearing as two old men playing chess in the background before being blown away by an explosion.
The music video shows Psy dancing at various locations in Gangnam.[19] Although there are more than ten different locations featured, only two of the scenes are actually filmed in the Gangnam district. The sauna scene, elevator scene, bathroom scene were filmed in places like Gyeonggi Province or Incheon.[20] Psy appears to visit all the stereotypical symbols of wealth in South Korea before the camera reveals he is actually someplace ordinary - for example, what appears to be a fancy beach is revealed to actually be a playground sandbox.[11]

Release

When "Gangnam Style" was first released on July 15, 2012, it was known only to fans of K-pop, and in particular those of Psy's record label the South Korean management agency YG Entertainment. Psy told Yonhap News Agency that he originally “didn’t make this for foreign countries...This was always for local fans.”[13] However, K-Pop fans started to share it on social networks like Facebook andTwitter and it was not long before internet users outside the K-Pop community began to notice it. Soon, celebrities in and outside theUnited States let their fans know about "Gangnam Style", which triggered a snowball effect.
About a month after its initial release, on August 17, Gangnam Style officially won first-place in the Korean music television programmeMusic Bank[21] on KBS 2TV, scoring a total of 18,601 points.

Evan Ramstad from The Wall Street Journal,[19] 3rd August
By early August, the international media began to take notice of it, and it became a worldwide hit. On August 4, Deborah Netburn of The Los Angeles Times wrote that "Gangnam Style" is "unstoppable" and it is "taking over the world".[12] During the last week of August, Billboard Magazine reported that Psy jumped up by 8 spots on the weekly Billboard Social 50. He had beatenTaylor Swift to take the number one position for 3 weeks; a feat that has so far only been achieved by Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Adeleand Rihanna.[22]
On September 15, "Gangnam Style" became the first K-Pop song to take the no. 1 position on the iTunes chart. [23] On September 17, it was nominated under the category Best Video for the upcoming 2012 MTV Europe Music Awards in Frankfurt, Germany.[24]

Reception

Although K-Pop has been getting increasingly popular over the past few years due to the Korean Wave, it is still fairly uncommon for K-Pop songs to be featured in foreign broadcasting networks and newspapers. However, "Gangnam Style" has managed to catch the attention of international media outlets such as the CBC[25] and CNN, the latter of which describes it as "very different and comedic."[need quotation to verify]Other broadcasting networks, popular magazines and newspapers which have reported on "Gangnam Style" include Reuters,[26] The Los Angeles Times,[27] The Huffington Post,[28] The Herald Sun,[29] The Atlantic,[11] The Vancouver Observer,[30] The Wall Street Journal,[31] ABC News,[14] USA Today,[32] the Bleacher Report,[33] Bloomberg,[34] ESPN,[35] Le Point,[36]Libération[37] Le Nouvel Observateur,[38] BBC,[39] VH1,[40] M6 TV,[41] and the Financial Times[42]
Maura Judkis of The Washington Post wrote, "'Gangnam Style' has made an extraordinarily stupid-looking dance move suddenly cool".[43] Mesfin Fekadu of the Associated Press wrote that Psy is "currently having a pop culture moment". Psy's dance moves are "somewhat bizarre" but the music video is full of "colorful, lively outfits". He also remarked that Psy "is excited his colorful style is being celebrated in the United States, and around the world."[44]

Jason Abbruzzese, Financial Times, 14th September[42]
Matt Miller, a host from the business and financial news broadcaster Bloomberg Television, played "Gangnam Style" during his show, because "its just a super hot video that has gone astronomically viral." He also said that Psy did say on CNN that he wants to make people laugh even in the midst of all these global economic slowdowns, "so that's the Wall Street tie-in" he needed.[34]
The German weekly news magazine Der Spiegel attributes the growing popularity of "Gangnam Style" to its daring dance moves.[45]
Melissa Locker of Time Magazine noted that "it’s hard not to watch again …and again …and again.",[46] while CNN reporter Shanon Cook told the audience that she had watched "Gangnam Style" about 15 times.[47]
Although "Gangnam Style" has been met with largely positive reactions, some have found it wacky or even vulgar.[48] Matt Buchanan and Scott Ellis of the The Sydney Morning Herald writes that the video "makes no sense at all to most Western eyes" and it "makes you wonder if you have accidentally taken someone else's medication."[49] Paul Lester of The Guardian labelled it as "generic ravey Euro dance with guitars".[50] and Robert Myers of The Village Voice called it "an inspired piece of silliness".[51]

Video performance on YouTube

One indicator of the song's immense growing popularity is its performance on the video sharing platform YouTube. Deborah Netburn of the Los Angeles Times called it "one of the greatest videos ever to be uploaded to YouTube."[61]
“The song is characterized by its strongly addictive beats and lyrics,
and is thus certain to penetrate the foundations of modern philosophy.		”
—Gangnam Style's official music video description[62]
The video was uploaded on July 15, 2012.[3] It overtook Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" to reach the number one position on the YouTube Top 100 Music Videos during the week of August 28, 2012.[7][63] On September 1, it overtook Girls' Generation's "Gee" to become the most viewed K-Pop video on YouTube. Although "Call Me Maybe" has had unusually strong staying power, averaging over 1.5 million views each day, "Gangnam Style" increased to an average of over 6 million views per day within just 2 months. This is mainly because "Call Me Maybe" remained largely a North American trend, whereas "Gangnam Style"'s popularity is not confined to the United States.[64] On September 13, 2012, Gangnam Style became the most liked video on YouTube with over 1.6 million likes;[65] beating LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" for the number one spot.[66]
About 47% of the views came from the United States, 7% from the United Kingdom, 6.8% from Canada and 4% from South Korea.[67]Andrew Ryan of The Globe and Mail wrote that in two months, with 130 million views, including its accompanying videos, it was the "fifth-biggest viral video in the history of the Internet."[68]

Impact

The music video for the song has gone viral and is considered by some to be an internet meme.[citation needed] Hallie Sekoff of The Huffington Post quotes from the video's official YouTube video description that the song is characterized by its "strongly addictive beats", and writes that this is not too far-fetched, considering "how obsessed we’ve found ourselves."[69] During VH1's Big Morning Buzz Liveshow, the television host Carrie Keagan says that everyone in our office is "completely obsessed" with "Gangnam Style".[40][70]
On August 16, 2012, Nelly Furtado performed the song at her concert in the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Manila, Philippines.[71]

During the late night comedy talk show Chelsea Lately, the American stand-up comedian and actress Chelsea Handler told the audience she considers Psy to be a "revolutionary musician, dancer and sex symbol". She also compared him with the Latino pop singer Ricky Martin.[72]
Ju-min Park of Reuters mentioned that "a few of South Korea's normally staid presidential candidates are imitating Psy's moves in an appeal to voters".[26] The Korea Tourism Organization has launched an ‘One day Gangnam tour’ that begins with some ‘gangnam styling’ at a beauty salon, shopping at the Apgujeong & Cheongdam boutiques, a quick luxury coffee and brunch, followed by the casino and clubbing.[73]
After the release of "Gangnam Style", the American talent manager Scooter Braun, who discovered Justin Bieber on YouTube, asked on Twitter "How did I not sign this guy (Psy)".[67]Soon afterwards, it was reported that Psy had left for Los Angeles to meet with representatives of Justin Bieber, to explore collaboration opportunities.[7][48] On September 3, Braun made a public accouncement that was later uploaded onto YouTube, saying that he and Psy have decided to "make some history together. [To] be the first Korean artist to break a big record in the United States." On September 4, it was confirmed that Psy was signed to Braun's Schoolboy Records[74]

Social influence

One of the main factors that have led to "Gangnam Style's" receiving worldwide media attention is its popularity among notable celebrities. According to The Wall Street Journal, T-Pain was among the first to have "sent it (Gangnam Style) to the stratosphere" when he tweeted about it on July 29.[75] It was then picked up by Neetzan Zimmerman from the social blog Gawker, who asked "Did this underground Hip Hop artist from South Korea just release the Best Music Video of the Year?"[76] on July 30.
Here is a non-exhaustive list of celebrities who have mentioned about it so far:

Some of the lifeguards who only appeared in the background, but did not actively participate, were also fired. A Facebook page created by the lifeguards, titled "Bring Back the 14 El Monte Lifeguards", had won the support of more than 11,000 fans within a few days.[129] In an interview on 97.1 AMP Radio with Carson Daly, Psy called the incident a “tragedy” and added that the city officials "were taking things too seriously".[130] On September 14, Psy appeared on MTV News and left a message for El Monte's mayor Andre Quintero: "I'm begging you to not fire please, because they were enjoying their souls with some other cultures and it was even off duty."[131]
El Monte's city council will decide on this issue during their next meeting on September 18.
