It's tiring to be asked the same questions all day long: 'What is Gangnam style?' and 'Teach me how to dance.'

All the people in Korea are cheering me like I'm a gold medalist or something, so I have a responsibility to my country.

The mindset of this [“Gangnam Style”] dance is dress classy, and dance cheesy,

I've always tried to come up with funny dancing since I was young, to attract girls' attention for one thing. It's got to be funny. I can't pull it off with serious dances. That's not me.

To the U.S. and the world, I'm just known as some funny song and some funny music, some funny video guy. But in Korea I'm doing one of the biggest concerts; it's not a dance music concert. I'm playing with the band, so I change my every song to a rock song.

Before 'Gangnam Style' I was not a good attitude artist.

I've got to wear sunglasses everywhere, all the time, even if its indoors or at night time, to be recognized. That's part of my job. I cannot take off my sunglasses. For me, staying in the United States was so dark because I can't take them off.
