Psy chosen as Korea’s favorite singer


Singer Psy, who is taking over the world with mega-hit “Gangnam Style”, has been chosen as Korea’s favorite singer.

Gallup Korea conducted a poll asking 630 adults from September 10th to 11th which Korean singer they most prefer out of the artists active this year. Psy ranked #1 with a total of 19% votes, beating Girls’ Generation, who were voted the best act in Korea for a third consecutive year.

Girls’ Generation came in second place with 13% of the votes, while idol group B2ST came in third with 5%. Big Bang and KARA tied for 4th place respectively with 4%.

However, last year during the poll results, Girls' Generation earned 26% of the votes and Psy with a mere 0.4%.

28% of the voters were in their 20’s, while those in their 40’s and 50’s also showed much interest in Psy by voting. The age group which most preferred Girls’ Generation were users in their 20’s (19%).

76% of the voters reported that they have seen the “Gangnam Style” music video and 36% reported that they have tried to follow the popular “horse-riding” dance move.
