PSY - GANGNAM STYLE (강남스타일) M/V
Here is the meaning of “Oppan Gangnam style” once and for all:
The word “oppa” (literally older brother) is an informal title like
“daddy” and “mommy” in English. This title, “oppa,” can be used only by a
girl when she calls out to or talks to either (1) her real older
brother in her family, or (2) a male friend slightly older than she is
(not older than, very roughly, 10 years, in which case the title
“a-jo-ssi,” literally uncle, would be more appropriate). For the second
use, the older male friend does not necessarily have to be her
boyfriend, although he can be. “Oppa” conveys a sense of warm
friendship, so all Korean guys love to be called “oppa” by younger
girls–especially by those they find attractive. As for what the
difference between “oppa” and “oppan” is, “oppan” simply means “oppa
is.” So “Oppan Gangnam style” means “(girls!) Older brother is Gangnam
style,” and Gangnam is the richest district in Korea full of expensive
condos many of which are well over US $2 million dollars.
Also, just in case some of you are curious, as for titles boys use, boys
similarly use the title “hyung” (literally older brother) to call out
to or talk to either their real older brother or a male slightly older
than they are and likewise use the title “nuna” (literally older sister)
to call out to or talk to their real older sister or a female slightly
older than they are.
The reason Koreans use titles instead of names even when talking to
people slightly older than they are is that Koereans are heavily
influenced by the philosopher Confucius. He taught people to respect
older people because older people, in general, possess more life
experiences and thus more wisdom than younger people do. This age
etiquette shouldn’t sound strange to people of western culture either,
for even westerners, in general, think it is rude for a child to call
his or her parents by first name. Koreans extend this age etiquette to
all spheres of relationships in which any age difference exists. Even a
mere one-year difference matters especially among students and the
younger one must refer to the older one using a title, or just as
commonly, by using a name followed by an appropriate title (for example,
Jason oppa! Paul hyung! Mary nuna! John a-jo-ssi!).

Lyrics:English Translation: Oppa is Gangnam style
Gangnam styleA girl who is warm and humanle during the day
A classy girl who know how to enjoy the freedom of a cup of coffee
A girl whose heart gets hotter when night comes
A girl with that kind of twistI’m a guy
A guy who is as warm as you during the day
A guy who one-shots his coffee before it even cools down
A guy whose heart bursts when night comes
