The official video above was uploaded to YouTube on July 15 2012, Just five month from now.
It has inspired hundreds of parody clips, from members of the British army, Thai navy and Minecraft gamers, among others, the BBC reports.
According to the report, YouTube’s owner, Google, said the video had been watched seven million to 10 million times a day on average.
It overtook the previous record holder, Justin Bieber’s music video Baby, on 24 November, the report said.
The viral video also spawned a pop culture movement in the United States and elsewhere, with athletes, celebrities, and even Google chairman Eric Schmidt busting out signature “Gangnam Style” dance moves in various public venues over the past several months.
Meanwhile, PSY’s mega-hit has been dropping other YouTube records like flies during its meteoric run on the video site. “Gangnam Style” passed Bieber’s “Baby” as the most-viewed video on YouTube on Nov. 24. The video also had a record 6.2 million likes on YouTube as of Friday evening. Amazingly, “Gangnam Style” has less than 450,000 dislikes on the site, for a like-to-dislike ratio approaching 14:1. By comparison, “Baby” currently has about 1.5 million likes but also 3.3 million dislikes.
