Backstory

What is the Gangnam Style trend, and where did it start?

PSY’s “Gangnam Style” came out in July 2012 and became the first YouTube video to pass one billion views. The horse-riding dance never really left.

The AI trend recreates the dance on a sunset street with your friend group in the lead roles — the trio and four-friend versions are the most made.

Troubleshooting

What goes wrong, and how do you fix it?

👥Two dancers look alike

Use a separate, recent photo for each person — not crops from one group photo.

🔀Dancers are in the wrong spots

Slot order maps left to right. Reorder the photos and preview again for free.

🌑One face is darker than the others

Pick photos with similar lighting, or brighten the dark one before uploading.

🙈A face is hidden mid-dance

Avoid photos with hats, hands or hair over the face.

Song & posting

Can you use the real Gangnam Style song? Tips for posting your clip

Yes — videos export without audio, so add the official sound inside TikTok or Instagram. That puts your video on the trend’s audio page, where most of the views come from.
