PSY’s Gangnam Style music video hits 1 billion views on Youtube

South Korean pop sensation, PSY, has finally broken through the 1 billion mark on Youtube, with his video for the massively popular Gangnam Style.

This is the first time a video will be viewed by such a huge number and Google reports that it gets as many as 7 millions views in a day.

For a man who was completely unknown just a few months ago, he himself is still in awe.

“Honestly, when I made this video I didn’t even expect 1 million views, because this is off my sixth album in Korea, so I just hoped it would be huge there,” PSY recently told MTV News. “I didn’t even think about any other countries; I just did my job and waited and watched.

“And, you know, today, I’m still wondering and analyzing its success. Because I’ve done this thing many times, this dance, this album, this video … this one just became something else entirely.”
