UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says he is jealous of Gangnam Style artist Psy, because he has stolen his crown as the world’s most famous South Korean.
The UN chief joked during a meeting with Psy that he felt overshadowed by the star, whose viral video has generated over 500 million views on YouTube.
The fellow countrymen then came together to re-create the world-wide phenomenon that is the Gangnam-style dance.
Ban had said: ‘I’m a bit jealous. Until two days ago someone told me I am the most famous Korean in the world. Now I have to relinquish. I have no regrets,’
The two lavished praise on each other at UN headquarters Tuesday, with Ban even risking a few of Psy’s trademark dance moves from the viral smash video Gangnam Style.
