Psy blew up because his video was funny and he doesn't take himself very seriously (and probably most importantly he made a ridiculous dance for it). the pop song that GirlySports linked is a dime a dozen in North America, there's nothing that sets it apart besides being foreign. i think Psy is pretty much going to be a one-off for Asian popstars making it big over here, there will be plenty who try to copy his success but no one will come close
