Well, actually I am a huge fan of music so I listen to different kinds of music a lot in my spare time. The song I would like to talk about today is called Gangnam Style, which is a Korean dance song by a rapper called Psy.
The song is blowing up worldwide right now. I actually heard about the song on the internet. One day when I was using my micro blog, I found a piece of news saying a music video has been viewed over 440 million times on You Tube and it is the site’s most watched Korean pop video. It also says that the song has been highly praised for its catchy beat and Psy’s humorous dance moves in the music video. And there is also a link to the music video attached. So I clicked the link and watched the video in my room. And I have to tell you it is such a catchy song that as soon as I watched it, I could not help falling in love with it. I was hooked. The point is, the whole song is in Korean, which means I don’t know what he is actually singing about. But that doesn’t matter. The passionate music beat and Psy’s unique, cute horse-riding dance, combined with the excellent visual effect, make you feel that you don’t even have to know what he is saying. It translates without language. No wonder it is called ‘divine tune’by netizens. (俞伟国老师作品)
