Quotes

  • Oppan Gangnam StyleGangnam StyleOp op op op oppan Gangnam Style
  • The mindset of this dance is 'dress classy and dance cheesy'.
  • I have twins. They are 4 years old. They know the word 'concert,' so they know father's job is 'concert,' and they prefer concert [over] father.
  • I'm still walking down the street like, 'Why I'm here? Why I'm here?' You know, I've done this 12 years in Korea, and I'm rookie here now. I never expect I would become a K-pop star.
  • I try to dress classy and dance cheesy.
  • I don’t think this dance is suitable for weddings. This is not a formal dance, this is a cheesy dance! But still, I appreciate that.
