PSY's full address
ABOUT PSY:
Park Jae-sang, better known by his stage name PSY, is a South Korean singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, and record producer. He is well known for his humorous videos and stage performances, and for his hit single "Gangnam Style", a song about where he came from and which talks about the life of the people of Gangnam, which is a neighborhood in Seoul, South Korea. The music video for "Gangnam Style" is the most viewed K-pop video on YouTube, and also the most "liked" video on the site. Published on July 15, 2012, the video has over 583 million views and more than 4.5 million "likes", which surpasses prior record holder LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem". PSY has appeared on numerous television programs, including The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Extra, Good Sunday: X-Man, The Golden Fishery, The Today Show, Saturday Night Live, Sunrise and The X-Factor
The UK is not an exception to the Gangnam Style Craze. PSY became the first South Korean pop star to make it to the top of the UK singles chart. In his speech on Tuesday to the Conservative Party Conference, the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, told delegates: 'The Prime Minister and I danced Gangnam Style the other day'. It produced a number of parodies from London Style to Eton Style.
