Seo In-young: 'I almost sang the female version of Gangnam Style'

Singer Seo In-young has shared a surprising behind-the-scenes story about Psy's mega-hit song "Gangnam Style." In a recent YouTube video on her channel "Seo In-young's True Self," she disclosed that she was nearly cast to perform a female version of the iconic song.

During the video, Seo In-young identified Psy as one of the producers she had the best chemistry with. She revealed, "I was supposed to be on the female version of 'Gangnam Style' with my voice." She further elaborated that the distinctive rap section, "A lovely woman in the daytime," was originally her part.

When the production team expressed surprise, Seo In-young explained her reluctance to share the story earlier, fearing it might sound like exaggeration. "I made a mistake back then," she admitted. "If you ask me to do it now, I'll do it right away," she added, even demonstrating a dance move from the song, eliciting laughter.

This revelation offers a glimpse into the song's development and highlights a missed opportunity for Seo In-young to potentially become part of a global phenomenon. Her willingness to perform the part now underscores her confidence and perhaps a touch of nostalgia for the unfulfilled possibility.
