what is " Gangnam style"?

If you are not from the age of dinosaurs , you would have surely heard of 'Gangnam style'. Are you wondering what is it all about?
Well, Gangnam style is a single by a Korean rapper Psy. It is at present one of the top 20 videos in yotube. The video has gone viral and people from all over the world come to watch it. The tune is very catchy , doesn't leave your head and the choreography is funny.


The lyrics apparently talk about a nice guy and a nice girl who know to go wild when they have to. Most people who watch the video are clueless about the lyrics and yet it doesn't stop them from enjoying it. They seem to have their own reasoning of the song.

Here I try to state what I think this song means

Never stop dreaming (Psy dreams about a girl on beach)
Just ride on life (Psy does the horse dance)
Inspire others to ride on life (Little boy does horse dance)
Sometimes life throws thrash on you , dance as if you don't care (Psy dances as trash and white creamy thing is thrown on him)

Embrace your identity and don't fake (Psy admires a tattooed guy at the sauna)
Life is a board game with momentary ups and downs (Psy sits besides guys playing a board game)
Even if there are explosions all around , life goes on (the board game guys killed in explosion)
Ride on life (Psy does horse dance on ground, boat and buildings )

Enjoy beauty ( Psy gets an eyeful of a girl's bum)
Vanity comes and dances with you, Dance but don't give in to temptation, send it off (Guy in bright yellow suit comes in a red jaguar and dances with Psy)
Sometimes life corners you and screws you, Don't give up (Guy does pelvic thrust dance over Psy in elevator)
Sometimes you meet your dream person in unlikely places  (Psy meets girl in metro)
Ride on life with your loved ones (Psy does the horse dance)

Be original, surprise people (Psy dances in water as  older guy watches surprised)
Ride on life with loved ones  (Psy does the horse dance with girls)
No matter how high you fly, place your feet on ground, be in touch with reality (Psy makes rap moves in black suit wearing sunglasses but when zoomed out, is sitting on a WC)
Ride on life with friends (Psy does horse dance with people from all walks of life)
Out dance vanity (Psy dances around the yellow suit guy)

Life goes on (Psy says 'Opa gangnam style' with explosions in the backdrop)

Now watch the video and if you want dance like no one is watching!
