Zitat des Tages von Psy:
Everything moves way too fast.
I need to show the world that my final goal is to perform huge concerts like Madonna.
In Korea, it's a tradition to inherit your father's business. Unfortunately, I'm the only son in the entire family, so they were forcing too much.
As an artist, the more experience, the better the creation. I'm a very positive person.
If a Korean artist reaches to the top, we're all ready to stand up and applaud for him or her.

There's a lot of variety of musicians in Korea. I cannot say they are the best in the world, but I can say that Korean artists are really dynamic artists, so I am going to show that from now on.
Thanks to many great K-pop singers, the groundwork has been laid for more Korean songs to be readily accessible to an overseas audience via channels like YouTube.
My lifetime role model and hero is Freddie Mercury of Queen. His songwriting skills, I cannot even approach, but his showmanship, I learned it from videos.
My lifetime role model and hero is Freddie Mercury of Queen.
I try to dress classy and dance cheesy.
That's why 'Gangnam Style' works. If someone handsome uses that phrase it's just awkward. But if someone like me uses it, it's funny.
