Posts like these are just horrible as hell. It's called genres and artists, there's a variety of both in every country. There's crap American/Europeon/Asian/etc. music. Not that I think gangnam style is bad necessarily.

SO GOOD...I definitely support this movement.

The people trashing on Gangnam Style are probably the same people who think "Eat It" is bad because Weird Al doesn't sound exactly like Michael Jackson - _________ -;;

No, I think "Eat It" is terrible because it's childish, annoying, and meaningless.

Gangnam is one of the most affluent districts in Seoul, so I think Gangnam style means a very affluent lifestyle. "Oppan Gangnam style" = I'm Gangnam style


Like certain other Asian languages, Korean uses a number of different pronouns depending on social status and relationship. "Oppa" is often used by young women to refer to older male non-romantic friends, and for such older male friends to refer to themselves. "Oppa Gangnam Style" would mean "Your older male buddy (in this case referring to Psy himself) is 'Gangnam Style.'"

Edit: I know almost no Korean, so I couldn't possibly say whether "Hey sexy lady, Oppa Gangnam Style" is supposed to come off as somewhat creepy and forward, but given the content of the video, I suspect probably so, and it's probably a lot more funny for a Korean speaker.

I have a hard time understanding why "e-sports" is a reason enough to like a do something ("for the sake of e-sports" in the OP), specially when it comes down to promoting yet another generic song with the same beats i've heard at least a hundred time. This song is shit as most of the musical production of Korea is. I'm not saying koreans aren't capable of producing good music. I've had the luck of hearing a lot of concerts from one of the best, i believe, music directors alive today, Myung Chung, from the Orchestre Philarmonique de Radio France. But korean pop music is a match made in hell between girls/boys band from the eighties and kanye west copycats.


If you don't like certain music, by all means go ahead. That is your personal opinion. However, you're not the ultimate judge of what's "good music" and "bad music" for everyone else. Realize that people around the world have widely different preferences and that often depends a lot on their cultural backgrounds. You're calling something "a match made in hell from the eighties and kanye west copycats" because you don't like it. Mentioning Chung does not excuse you from generalizing and degrading the entire Korean pop music industry.

I myself come from a classical music background and I have pretty clear likes and dislikes, but I don't go around saying "god, that country's pop music is garbage".


I think it's safe to say he was calling any country's pop music garbage.

For the most part, he's right. It's intentionally unoriginal, and pretty much removes any creativity from the equation. It's totally okay to like garbage music... I find some of it catchy... but it's still garbage.

In what sense is it garbage?


did you not read his post? "it's intentionally unoriginal" which is dead on and is a perfectly good reason.

Well, it doesn't make much sense to say that garbage is intentionally unoriginal, does it? If he dislikes it, that's fine, but he seems to think he's doing something more than uttering his personal preference. (He's not.)


The only opinion I stated about my taste is that I enjoy some pop music. Do I see it as an art form, though? No. I see good music as an expression of emotion - something you can reflect on and something that reveals information about the artist, the listener, or both.

This song was made solely to make money, push an extravagant lifestyle, and make people want to dry hump each other drunk in a night club. Just like you enjoying this music is an opinion, me calling it garbage is an opinion too.

This does go a little beyond personal opinion. I call it garbage music because it's throw-away. It will have it's week(s) in the spotlight, everyone will get sick of it, and it'll show up again years later a couple times as a 'hey, remember this?' track. If you find throwing things away to be offensive, then I suppose I've offended you.

I admit to painting with an overly-broad stroke. There is some pop music with emotion, substance and creativity that does last, and becomes a 'classic.' This song isn't a good example of that though.

To end on a lighter note, I think the video is quite brilliant. It makes me giggle my ass off. The guy's definitely a great entertainer, and a great salesman. I don't see how GOM could go wrong getting this guy to perform live... maybe even guest-MC

The word by itself is "oppa." If adding an N is a grammatically appropriate ending, I have no clue about that.

Music elitists are too funny, especially when they don't understand that different kinds of music serve different purposes. You aren't supposed to listen to PSY and analyze its structure. It doesn't push boundaries and it isn't supposed to. You can enjoy different music for different reasons you know.

The same people that are poo-pooing this song and name-dropping whatever classical composer pleases them are probably the same people that think death metal isn't music and electronic music is artless and just for dancing.
