Gangnam style made me prefer North Korea to South Korea. No country devoted to the common good could ever unleash such cultural carnage upon the world.
Jokes, but I do hate gangnam style.
It was a fucking banger and a true classic of this millennium's tween years you tasteless, joyless, spork sharpener.
addendum: the lil "discourse" below this comment is π«πΏπ₯€
I dont believe one could be a millenial tween in 2012
No but the millennium itself was a tween
Millennium as in 2000-3000 not millennial as the generation.
Psst. 2001-3000
Of course, I never wrote anything different π
2000-2999. Arrays start at zero.
Thatβs not correct though, you donβt start at zero
i think i was fairly clear I do
The statue is, unsurprisingly, in Gangnam. Personal judgement of the song aside, it made the district world-famous. That's enough reason to erect a monument.
The biter irony of Gangnam Style was in its original portrayal (embraced by the OG music video) mocking the faux-decadence and rampant conspicuous consumerism of the Gangnam district. Then Psy blows up, becomes the epitome of the Nouveau Riche he was parodying, hooks up with his lead dancer, and just shamelessly embraces the same Gangnam lifestyle.
I mean, North Korea has its own brand of conspicuous over-consumption. It's just couched in the language of Juche socio-economic policies. The two countries' leaders are trapped in a shameless cycle of one-upsmanship and its been toxic for them both in different ways.
I'll hear nothing bad about that song, it was fun af. It was Kpop before Kpop was cool.
