You think you’re sick of Gangnam Style?

Oppan sexy lady, not again.

If for some reason your ears have been spared hearing Psy’s
Gangnam Style http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0

please let me know your secret. Psy’s the Korean Justin
Bieber who became an overnight success by uploading his video on You-Tube. If
you’re wondering what the lyrics mean, Gangnam 
is a well to do Suburb of Seoul. 

No, this isn’t a picture of  Psy.

And this isn’t Gangnam, Korea, either.

This definitely isn’t a Gangnam Style laundry mat.

But I do think this is where Psy got his Gangnam style dancing shoes.

As big as the song is in America, magnify it by a gazillion
and a half and you almost understand its popularity in Asia. If my Korean
students spent as much time practicing their past tense irregular verbs as they
do the pony dance, I’d be out  a job. 

The lady who sold me the  bootleg version of James
Bond’s SKYFALL didn’t know the Gangnam style song. She also didn’t  know that the bootleg DVD of Agent Ling Ling Qi (007) was in Russian.

Nos this isn’t Psy and this isn’t Gangnam, but it is  my best Gangnam style pony dancer,  a pint-size Parisian.

  Yes I know, a French boy learning English in China is the best
Korean style dancer.

Instead of wearing a tight pink Gangnam style tux, he likes to
wears a batman costume to class.  I know it’s breaking dress code, but who cares.
