Here's The English Translation Of 'Gangnam Style'

• http://www.businessinsider.com, Kirsten Acuna

In all reality, the silly nonsensical video is a satire – poking fun at Seoul's wealthiest district, "Gangnam."

(Think of PSY's treatment of "Gangnam" as a parallel to the United States' love-hate relationship with the Jersey Shore. Though, PSY says Gangnam is equivalent to our Beverly Hills.)

Psy has described the song as a tribute to the ladies of the wealthy city.
 
"Gangnam is a territory in Seoul, Korea. I describe it as noble at the daytime and going crazy at the night time. I compare ladies to the territory. So — noble at the daytime, going crazy at the night time — and the lyric says I am the right guy for the lady who is like that."

With that in mind, we found the English translation to the viral sensation so we could shed some light on the catchy number. (The lyrics found are the same across various sources.)

If you somehow haven't heard the South Korean pop sensation PSY yet, you will now.
