Yes, there was much ado about Psy last year. I mean, the dude literally had the entire world doing the ridiculously viral ‘Gangnam Style’. He performed on possibly any available stage throughout the globe, even in Malaysia…TWICE! And just when you thought it was over…he dropped the ‘Gentleman’ bomb and ended rocking the world yet again.
BUT…We at HYPE think it’s time you saw this one. Move over Psy. We have a new hero (well, sorta!)
Here’s renowned Korean actor and balladeer Im Chang Jung‘s “Open the Door” music video.
You probably might recognize Im (pun intended) from the Korean box office hit, college comedy film “Sex Is Zero”.
The song carries an addictive beat and is composed in a style reminiscent of PSY’s “Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman”…however, all of that melts away after listening to the first 2o seconds of the song.
“Open the Door” is brilliantly mixed with electronic beats that will having you rocking in your chair. The viral video for it has also produced a strong positive reaction from netizens who are praising Im Chang Jung’s sense of humor and comical performance as he portrays the character of a man of high moral character, who corrects or admonishes individuals who appear to have forgotten the manners, etiquette and values upheld by the older generation, whereas Psy has previously assumed characters that are quite the opposite yet endearing all the same.
Public service announcement…or sneak jab at Psy? You decide. Regardless, this is a hella great song to start your day. Now dance!
