PSY is anti-America?

Thanks to a US invention – Youtube, PSY is currently basking in the American limelight with his Gangnam Style video.

Reports are coming in, however, that PSY engaged in anti-America protest in 2004.

“According to a story on October 30, 2012 on the Korean-language version of the Chosun Ilbo and also reported on K-Pop music site AllKpop.com, PSY, along with several popular performers, took part in a live performance of Korean rock band N.EX.T’s song “Dear American”.

싸이 rap :
이라크 포로를 고문해 댄 씨발양년놈들과
고문 하라고 시킨 개 씨발 양년놈들에
딸래미 애미 며느리 애비 코쟁이 모두 죽여
아주 천천히 죽여 고통스럽게 죽여

PSY Rap:
Kill those f****** Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives
Kill those f****** Yankees who ordered them to torture
Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law and fathers
Kill them all slowly and painfully.”

PSY issued an apology on Friday.

“As a proud South Korean who was educated in the United States and lived there for a very significant part of my life, I understand the sacrifices American servicemen and women have made to protect freedom and democracy in my country and around the world,” said Psy in a statement. “The song – from eight years ago – was part of a deeply emotional reaction to the war in Iraq and the killing of two innocent Korean civilians that was part of the overall antiwar sentiment shared by others around the world at that time. While I’m grateful for the freedom to express one’s self I’ve learned there are limits to what language is appropriate and I’m deeply sorry for how these lyrics could be interpreted. I will forever be sorry for any pain I have caused anyone by those words.”
