PSY Update 2022: Where is 'Gangnam Style' Singer Now?
Perhaps, PSY is one of the most memorable K-pop artists of his generation. In 2012, his life changed following the release of his hit song, "Gangnam Style." But this wasn't PSY's first single.
In fact, "Gangnam Style" was included in his sixth album, "PSY6." This means that he had been in the industry for quite some time.
Following the massive success of "Gangnam Style," PSY became a household name in the world of K-pop not only in South Korea but also in other parts of the world.
On Dec. 21, 2012, PSY's "Gangnam Style" became the first K-pop track to reach 1 billion views on YouTube.
He has since been dethroned by BTS with their hit song, "Dynamite" but PSY will forever be known as the first K-pop idol to reach this milestone.
Following the success of "Gangnam Style," PSY released other songs like "Father" and "Gentleman." They were also hits but they never became as successful as "Gangnam Style."
