I love the video above of Britney Spears learning the “Gangnam Style” dance from Psy. It’s awesome on multiple levels. First of all, it’s fun watching her learn how to do this ridiculous dance that’s sweeping the nation (this decade’s “Macarena”?). Secondly, I’m quite pleased with the MILF she has transformed into. Watching her go from teen sensation to troubled youth to MILF has been a wonderful journey.
All of that aside, this “Gangnam Style” thing is troubling. As a resident of Los Angeles Koreatown, I feel bad for the Korean-American population. There are many people that will think of Psy’s stupid song-and-dance when they think of Koreans. There are many that will think that Korean-American youths are like the idiots on K-Town (season finale below). I’m guilty of the same thing. I have nice and normal friends that live on the Jersey Shore, but when I visit them, part of me thinks that every other person in town is a moron like The Situation or Snooki. Sadly, some people will think that Koreatown is full of miscreants like the ones in K-Town and people walking down the street doing the “Gangnam Style” dance.
Reality television and stupid music, killing the world one neighborhood at a time. *sigh*
hahahaha.
I’d rather everyone in Korea town dance like this than act like the guy in the elevator in the video.
That dude was on SNL last Saturday. I was ignorant until then.
