Someone told me that Oppa means 'Uncle', but in the particular district of Gangnam the word Oppa/Uncle also means Pimp.
So it's basically a song based on a pretty bad pun. I'll protect you like an uncle, and by Uncle I mean Pimp.
EDIT: English speakers likely would do better with the translation as 'Ill be like a Father to you, a real Las Vegas Pimp Daddy (where Daddy is a word that means Father but has more Pimp connotations, and Las Vegas being famous for legalized prostitution).
It's definitely debauchery. But we likely have memorials to Austin Powers and other such pop culture icons, so it's understandable.

My first thought was: "Oh nice, they've made a statue on how to not measure your own pulse."

Is it a sign that I have no artistic talent whatsoever that I hate this concept?
No, it just means that you believe that the artist's intentions are more important than your own interpretation of a given work. It's the other side of a philosophical debate about the meaning of "art" as a whole.

There was a particular statue of two pairs of arms hugging representing MLK Jr and his wife Corretta that inspired the exact opposite feelings, apparently, as many onlookers mistakenly thought it was something more obscene.

It's actually all four. I can see how one might confuse it for something obscene without the context.
If you ask me, I think we need to make obscene statues hip again. Bring back the priapus statues!

wrote last edited by [email protected]I don’t speak Korean but most sources I could find say Oppa means ‘older brother’ but also women call their boyfriend oppa. Also Gangnam is one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Seoul. Oppa Gangnam Style would mean Gangnam boyfriend or rich boyfriend or sugar daddy.

Gangnam style made me prefer North Korea to South Korea. No country devoted to the common good could ever unleash such cultural carnage upon the world.
Jokes, but I do hate gangnam style.
I'll hear nothing bad about that song, it was fun af. It was Kpop before Kpop was cool.

So that one speaker took over for the entire world when we were done playing it 24/7, collectively?
That's kind of inspiring. You go little speaker!
