Psy is undoubtedly the most recognizable Korean star nowadays thanks to his smash hit song "Gangnam Style" and large international fan base.

A few days ago the 36-year-old rapper took time out of his busy schedule to pay a visit to a young fan in Los Angeles who tragically lost his mother.

Nathan, a young 3-year-old boy who was featured in his mother Connie Kin's baby-themed parody of "Gangnam Style" back in 2012, and his family were surprised at home by a visit from the superstar who heard of their recent misfortune.

Last November, Connie Kin passed away tragically due to complications giving birth to Nathan's younger sister Ella and upon hearing the sad news, Psy wanted to pay a visit to share his condolences and meet Nathan in person.

Bringing along with him a doll with his own likeness that sings and dances to the international hit single, Psy entered the home of Connie's husband and family where he was met by surprise and a whole lot of smiles.

The visit was a much-welcomed distraction for the family in their time of sorrow and Nathan appeared to enjoy his encounter with the famed rapper, even though at times he appeared more intrigued by the battery-operated version rather than the actual man standing before him.

Check out the video of Psy's visit to Connie Kin's family below.
