Overview[]
On July 15, 2012, Korean pop artist PSY released "Gangnam Style" on his album PSY 6 (Six Rules), Part 1. The music video for the song was uploaded onto YouTube the same day. The song became the most viewed video on YouTube in August 2012 (which caused emergency maintenance of the website following its foray into 1 billion views), with currently over 4.3 billion views and 23 million likes. "Gangnam Style" was the most viewed video on YouTube up until mid-2017.
After the music video for "Gangnam Style" was released, it became a massive viral hit, with the song, dances, and PSY himself becoming pop culture icons. The song and dance would be referenced in various commercials, TV shows and films. "Gangnam Style" would appear in video games such as Just Dance 4. "Gangnam Style" would also inspire multiple parodies to be made of it. PSY has also made numerous appearances at major events and in other media after the song's success.
In 2012, Gangnam Style was the most viewed YouTube video, a title previously held by Justin Bieber's "Baby" and the first video to reach one billion views on YouTube. As of February 2022, it is currently the 11th most viewed video on YouTube.
Nearly ten years after "Gangnam Style" and the album were published, PSY would bring back the character with his iconic dance in the music video "That That", which is part of his album PSY 9th uploaded on April 29, 2022.
The song would also become a meme and become a notable source of mashups on Triple-Q's channel. He would release collaborative albums on his Bandcamp page based around "Gangnam Style" and other songs by PSY called GANGNAMCORE. It is worth noting that several SiIvaGunner rippers (including key figures Chaze the Chat and MtH) contributed to the GANGNAMCORE series, even before the channel's formation.
