Psy releases a new video Gentleman on April 13 and has managed to get more than 85 million views till now. His earlier song Gangnam Style holds the YouTube record for most views ever with more than 1.5 billion. The dance step of the song was seen imitated all over the world, the most famous being by Chris Gayle after West Indies won the T20 World Cup.
Gentleman got more than 20 million hits in the first 24 hours after its release on Saturday night which easily outstripped the 8 million views for Justin Bieber's Boyfriend in its first 24 hours.
By now you've enjoyed "Gentleman M/V," Psy's followup to his massive hit, "Gangnam Style."
And you've probably also been completely baffled by the video and the lyrics (if you don't speak Korean). The video appears to show Psy playing tricks on women he's dating, until he meets a woman who is as tricky as he is.
Except, that's not what the song is about.
Here, courtesy of PolicyMic, are the lyrics in phonetic Korean and, below that, in English. The good news is, what sounds like Psy repeatedly singing a curse word is, in fact, something else entirely.
First, the video, then the words:
