As if getting #2 for the song of the year in 2012 with "Gangnam Style" wasn't enough, Psy snagged the #1 spot for 'Viral Video of 2013' on the list by TIME Magazine!


Psy tops even Ylvis' "What Does the Fox Say" on the list, and is the sole Korean on the list. Together with Girls' Generation, they're the only two Koreans who rank anywhere on the set of the 'Top 10 Everything of 2013' list that TIME revealed earlier today.


TIME wrote,

Think lightning can't strike twice? South Korean pop star Psy proved he was a rainmaker when he debuted "Gentleman" in April, his much-awaited follow-up to 2012's most-viral video, "Gangnam Style." While nowhere close to his original hit in terms of catchiness and choreography– the signature hip-swinging move was no invisible horse dance –- Psy proved he wasn't a one-trick pony when "Gentleman" broke all kinds of records right out of the gate, becoming the most viewed video online in a single day.
Congratulations to Psy!
