I cannot put into words how much I hate this song, unfortunately it has now pretty much gone viral so I have a feeling I am not going to be able to escape it for a while!

This song is actually in my latest promo releases pack for DJing, its the first time in over five years of subscribing to it that I've ever received K-Pop (I assume that's what this is). On first listen I was just shaking my head, ready to delete it. Now it has about 50 plays in iTunes and I only received it on Friday. I love it, and might even play it this weekend (maybe quite early for fear of getting attacked in the booth). But anyway, the moral of that little story is that this track is now actively being pushed to UK DJs, for better or worse.
I think it's awesome that English people are interested in a (mostly) non-English song and artist. Heck, apparently he will be appearing on MTV on Thursday. I can't think of another non-english song gaining this level of popularity. Ricky Martin is the closest I can think of as I think he did one or two songs in part Spanish.
For those English who want to know more about the context of the song here is an article:

Wow? People actually like this? I just thought it was popular because it's so stupid.
Amazing sig, done by mighty Lokann
That was my original reaction to viewing it but the more I listen to it the more I like it. It's the #1 song on youtube which is insane when you think about it. It's being played in Ballparks. I even saw ABC News interview him. He is appearing on MTV Award show . Even T-Pain has tweeted he loves the song. And I think this just released a month ago.
It will be interesting to see where the song goes. Does it get played on English radio stations? Do Music Stores stock his record? North America Concert Tour? All highly unlikely but not out of the realm of possibility if it continues to be popular especially if his next song is as popular.
Found this when browsing the webs Pure gold.
while i dont have any kind of grasp of the korean language, each verse he seems to rhyme with the same word over and over again.
also you are now aware how much the first line sounds like "open condom style"

But his other songs are actually pretty descent, and he's been around for a while.
It's like crossing an intersection. There's shit going on all over the place and you don't panic and act like an idiot then do you?
Just watched the video.
I don't understand the obsession.....like, at all....
But the redhead was hot.
