Psy's popularity has no end in sight. His previously broadcast documentary achieved high viewer ratings and beat out competing programs in the same time slot.

According to AGB Nielson Media Research, the September 21st broadcast of 'MBC Special - PsyGO: The World Is Gangnam Style' brought in a high viewer rating of 8.6%. This was a remarkable feat considering the fact that 'MBC Special' documentaries normally record an average viewership of 2-3% each week.

This week's episode featured the behind-the-scenes story of Psy's rise to stardom and followed his promotional trip across the United States.

Meanwhile, competing programs SBS' 'Go Show' and KBS 2TV's 'Marriage Clinic: Love and War 2' brought in 5.9% and 7.5% in viewer ratings, respectively.
