1. [+245, -160] Although 33rd is still just as impressive, Gentleman's song, dance, and MV were all... boring. Like the second version of Gangnam Style... If he continues with this concept for his next album, I don't think he'll be viable in the American market anymore. He should stop relying on his safety and stick to his original color.

2. [+272, -209] I sincerely hope he changes his follow-up track. This is the worst out of all of Psy's songs, personally... It feels like just yesterday he was saying take the auto-tune out of your throats.

3. [+310, -257] It's instant/fast food music. His music video was light and dirty. But of course, despite the low quality of the work, people will praise it regardless out of national pride.

4. [+36, -4] I don't get why it's so wrong for us to say that we personally feel the song is crap?

5. [+37, -10] Please stop treating the people who don't like Gentleman as traitors to the country... We all have our own personal tastes.

Article: Psy "Gangnam Style was a song I produced for the discouraged Koreans"

1. [+313, -51] I don't hate Psy but... I think he's exaggerating the interpretation of the song...

2. [+216, -25] Uhh... isn't this an exaggeration. Psy, win with honesty, stop trying to dress the song up to be something it isn't. Did you really produce Gangnam Style for 'discouraged Koreans'?

3. [+201, -22] Don't go to Harvard anymore. I read the reactions on the Harvard Facebook page and Americans were basically hating on Psy and using him as a joke while Koreans were responding and shielding him. I don't think it's necessary for him to attend to these events and get all this hate.

4. [+67, -27] Way to lie ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ You obviously produced the song to perform at events, what do you mean you made it for Koreans? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ How can you interpret a song about fooling around in Gangnam like that? ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+57, -7] Anyone can tell this is a lie. I'd believe it if he said 'Champion' was a song for Koreans. Gangnam Style? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Thanks for the laugh this early morning.
