Psy shares the pain of creation
Posted: 25 March 2013 1449 hrs

SEOUL: Millions of people around the world have seen Korean singer Psy dance, thanks to his ultra-popular “Gangnam Style” music video, which currently holds the title of most-watched YouTube video of all time. But what does he look like when he’s working? Fans finally got a peek into Psy’s life away from the glitz and glamour of the stage, when the Korean superstar released a photo of himself apparently struggling to get some writing done, with one hand clutching his forehead, over Twitter on Thursday. Psy even posted the photo under the hashtag #PAINofCREATION. With his new single due to drop in April, it’s no wonder the 35-year-old singer is hard at work. While he has carved a niche for himself in the Korean entertainment industry prior to “Gangnam Style”, it’s still the song that put him on the international music map, and it will be his new single that decides whether he will be able to further develop his music career outside of Korea, when “Gangnam Style” loses its shine.
