After 49 days since it's release, PSY's "Gangnam Style" has become the highest viewed K-Pop music video on YouTube.
Girls' Generation's "Gee", released back on June 8, 2009, held the crown for quite some time with the highest views for a K-Pop music video. However, with the viral power of "Gangnam Style", PSY surpassed Girls' Generation and became the first K-Pop artist to surpass the 85 million view mark.
Over the past week, PSY’s "Gangnam Style" has been averaging nearly 5 million views a day and it seems it won’t be slowing down any time soon.

As of this posting, "Gee" has 83,999,904 views (with 250,374 likes and 22,721 dislikes). Meanwhile, "Gangnam Style" has 90,893,117 views (900,520 likes, 37,025 dislikes)
In an attempt to reclaim the record their girls held for three years, SONEs are attempting to make "Gee" reach 100 million views. They claim they are doing this for Hyoyeon's birthday, but obviously we know better.
How are they going to do it, you ask? By replaying "Gee" at least 10 times every day! Their plan is posted all over the video's comment section. Check out some of the highlights here.

Date: 2012-09-02 08:00 pm (UTC)Even if they reach the 100 million before Gangnam Style (very, very unlikely, but let them believe), it won't beat Gangnam Style overal. Gee is already out for more than three years and Gangnam Style for about 1,5 month.
So, 100 million views in three years or in 1,5 month. I wonder who is better?
Plus I never got the popularity of Gee. It is seriously to cute for my taste. So, let's watch Gangnam Style again ^^

Date: 2012-09-02 08:09 pm (UTC)sones, a better counterattack is to have sm come up with a good song for SNSD next promotions. records are meant to be broken, and i'd love for them to get better songs.
