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.

My lifetime role model and hero is Freddie Mercury of Queen.

I like the word 'artist,' but I don't like the word 'artist' inside my house.

The fact that I'm shouting that I have Gangnam style makes people crack up. Imagine if Brad Pitt was singing the song - would it be funny? A twist is important when it comes to writing lyrics.

I just made my album. I did my best, and I uploaded the video just at YouTube. That was all.

I need to show the world that my final goal is to perform huge concerts like Madonna.

We are just at the studio, me and my choreographers, we are spending like 30 nights and we are thinking, what is my next dance move? Because in Korea there are huge expectations about my dancing. So it was a lot of pressure.
