J.Y. Park congratulated Psy through his Twitter account.

On October 5th, J.Y. Park tweeted, "Jesang (Psy's real name), I just heard the news after cutting off internet and cell phone access after I left Korea. How did this happen. When I left, I did a 'Gangnam Style' support video, and that song is now 2nd on Billboard. All these people prepare for years and can't accomplish that, how can you do it in just one month? Congratulations. Your life is such a drama. I'll call you when my cell phone is up again."

Netizens commented, "Although the media is trying to portray them as rivals, they're really good friends", "Congratulations Psy", and "Good to see their friendship."
