now everything's changed a little, since this is my latest post in a while..
Well, I just have no idea what I would be blurting here, but still, I want to (hahaha...).
Nowadays, there are many trends ever passed since my last post here, Apparently the dominance of Gangnam Style, by PSY, it seems to be that the "fire " that spread throughout the world doesn't seem to die down.. yet. Since the first time I've heard the news from Korean website, the teaser, the music vid, the support videos from fellow musicians, singers and actors, he really goes all the way, to the unprecedented achievement, even when it's compared with BIGBANG, another fellow Korean that marked their presence in Hollywood. Ever since the release of the music videos, many "Youtubers" are coming to watch the videos that went viral and explosive, thanks to his "classy suit, cheesy act" performance in his music videos.
Personally I don't think he will make it; not until this level, but I can assure you, I like his video, with his "nonsensical" artistic style. But if you watch his previous video, such as "Right Now", "Champion", "Bird", "Entertainer", you will know that this man is really as he portrays in his hit-sensation Gangnam Style. He has the quality, the quality that makes people enjoys together along with his antics. It's no wonder why he is also called "King of Entertainers" or "King of Concerts"; he give his all to his fan during his concerts.
If we talk about his dance; the choreography, it's just very simple (for most of people though), the "horse-riding" dance, a suit, a black spectacles, and a bow. However, I have to admit; he is creative, in his own way. The making of the video clip, depicts how he starts galloping at the pedestrian crossing in Gangnam, a place known as it's highly sophisticated lifestyle of its residents.
Depicting the New York Times articles dated September 20, 2012,
"Why the original video, released in July, has gained such popularity is anyone’s guess. In it, Mr. Park, 34, does a “horse riding” dance that looks vaguely like what children do when they hop around pretending to be galloping. He raps and dances around Seoul, all in the company of pretty women and to a song with an infectious beat.
In short, the performer, popularly known as PSY (short for Psycho), has done what K-Pop bands have failed to do. While those groups have choreographed their way to success all over Asia, they have made less headway in other parts of the world. Mr. Park, with his willingness to allow himself to be made fun of with a buffoonish performance, is a global success.
His video has more than 220 million views on YouTube and several parodies themselves have gone viral. A recent spoof landed some lifeguards in California in trouble: news reports say they were fired for using city property as their set."

Until now, this video has currently reached 731,550,596 viewers, an unprecedented record for a Korean, and an Asian, that has never ever directly promoted in US. It is, now hold the record of the 2nd most viewed video in the world; only his new US labelmate Justin Bieber tops him with his hit single "Baby". He also hold the most liked videos in Youtube with 5,124,147 like, beating LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem".
And that's not all; he won "Best Video" at MTV Europe Music Award just few days back, beating nominees M.I.A, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Rihanna.
[p/s: I think that's enough for today, maybe some very exciting articles next time. C U then, Bye.....]
