You know Full House was pretty crappy, stupid 'first love' premise that dragged on and on.

Speaking good English I think is the key to why the song didn't just fade away. Psy has been excellent in interviews and Americans productions like SNL can negotiate with him.

Now we just need good Korean Dramas to crossover and the world would be perfect, hee.

no no no.. actually crossover and show the original, not crappy remakes with american actors.

and that's a movie, not a drama

Just show the dramas as is.. even with subtitles.

Anyone watch K-dramas here?

Didn't matter. the lead actress is MEGA HOT! and in the show not a single young person died of cancer like it is a pre-requisite in most korean dramas.

While I don't recall how the mother on Full House died, there was no lead actress, unless you're referring to the Olsen twins

That was the whole problem.. Rain didn't go for the mega hot girl because he had made a promise to marry the other girl when he was NINE!

anyways.. this is off-topic.

Almost better than the original. Makes about as much sense to me.

Speaking of Korean TV, a friend of mine was a cast member on the Korean version of Friends!

When you really think about it, We are all Gagnam...

The Prime Minister of England, and my cousin Harry, you and me, the fat kid from “What’s Happening!”, The Olsen twins, Natalie Portman, the guy who wrote “Catcher in the Rye,” Nat King Cole, Carrot Top, Jay-Z, Weird Al Yankovic, Harry Potter, if he existed, the whore on the street corner, your mother–we’re all Gagnam.

It's an area in the city of Seoul, South Korea. Best example would be similar to Beverly Hills (though I think it is actually the richest region in the world or close to it so Beverly Hills on steroids).

Apparently, it's Korea's equivalent of Beverly Hills, Wall Street, and Silicon Valley all rolled into one. I was reading that the Gangnam area in Seoul contributes more GDP than Korea's second biggest city.

Speaking of Gangnam/Gangster.....Remember this song from da hood. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFwA0UwnuS8 Can't believe that used to play. Some reason this thread reminded me of it.

Okay, I officially no longer 'get' pop-culture.

This song is the coolest thing right now, everywhere I go it is all I hear about and I have never seen it. So I just watched the video and I just don't get what the hype is all about.

The song is not particularly catchy, the video is not particularly good, I just don't get it. Is it a big joke that I am not getting? Is it a serious thing that everyone just thinks is really cool?

I don't get it.
