Awesome!  37 million views, wtf?  I love hottie blonde Asian chicks.  It sounds like "Gundam style", though, not "Gangnam".

This was so awesome. But IMO, this remix is even better.

Best metal remix. Ever.

I don't see what the big deal is about the video. I walk around like that on a daily basis and all I get is a funny look.

Psshh, your status as a hobbit has just been a cover. Your cover has been blown.

As much as I love this song, and I do love it a lot, there are plenty of other kpop songs that are just so much better than this song. It amazes me so much that this song made it this big, especially in America. This is great news for korea aswell to see this accepted so well here. Even BigBangs tour and 2NE1 did surprisingly well when they did their North American tour. Im waiting for Epik High to return.

YEAH KPOP!  :metal

My brother can do the dance perfectly. And he's learned how to pronounce the Korean lyrics so he can sing it too.

It's amazing how quickly this went from viral to mainstream. It was only a matter of a week or two!

It's going to be a shame when American artists start remixing it :(

It's ok, it's the circle of life. An artist from another land creates a sound that is familiar, but new at the same time. This sound gets to America, where it spreads like wildfire. Suddenly, some people think they can reinvent the wheel and do their best, but it usually doesn't become anything but a gimmicky shadow of its former self. It's happened before and it will happen again. :lol
Perhaps you should ask bosk to reverse the "e" and "a" in the second half of your user name.

Yep.

OK, I have to admit, I liked this version.

Of course it's the metal remix:
