It has gone viral.



Gangnam Style" is a Korean neologism mainly associated with upscale fashion and lavish lifestyle associated with trendsetters in Seoul's Gangnam district (??), which is considered the most affluent part of the metropolitan area. In colloquial usage, it is comparable to the English slang terms "swag" or "yolo".

The more I watch it the more I think Gangnam Style by Psy has "borrowed" a lot from You Can't Touch This by MC Hammer.



You decide.

I don't get why that fat Korean guy is so popular.

@realAzhyaAryola

I don't get it either and I'm baffled at how popular this is. I don't see why. Sigh. Psy.
