"Gangnam Style" is a 2012 pop song by Korean music artist PSY. Its music video was formerly the most viewed video on all of YouTube. It is also a common meme on SiIvaGunner. 
== History ==
On July 15, 2012, PSY released his sixth album PSY 6 (Six Rules), Part 1, which features "Gangnam Style". The song for the music video was uploaded to PSY's YouTube channel the same day. It quickly went viral, becoming the most viewed video on the platform, a spot which was previously held by the music video to "Baby" by Justin Bieber featuring Ludacris. 
"Gangnam Style" is no longer the most viewed video, and was first beat by the music video to "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth, although that video has also since been passed. "Gangnam Style" currently sitting at 4.9 billion views, while still being one of the most viewed videos. 
Due to the song and music video success, PSY has since become much more popular around the world, and has had a more successful career, with new releases receiving large amounts of views. 
"Gangnam Style" has been a meme source since its release, as well as parodies. Triple-Q has since created multiple "Gangnam Style" mashups, and released the collaborative mashup album GANGNAMCORE, which later received sequels. 
== On SiIvaGunner ==
Following Triple-Q's albums, "Gangnam Style" has become one the most used memes on SiIvaGunner. "Gangnam Style" appeared in the first ever rip, "Battle! (Wild Pokémon) - Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire". 
The song has been used on the channel frequently throughout its history. Every year, a channel event dedicated to the song occurs, except for in 2018, where the event took place on November 30, which marked the third anniversary of PSY's later song "Daddy". The reason for this is due to channel not being allowed to upload for two weeks due to copyright issues.
