Psy's dad feels son more popular than Ban Ki-moon

Korean singer Psy of Gangnam Style fame says his parents consider him to be more popular than United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.

"My father is happy, because now he sees I am more famous than Ban Ki-moon, the Secretary-General of the United Nations. He was the most famous Korean person before me," thesun.co.uk quoted Psy as saying.

Psy's wacky horseriding dance moves in Gangnam Style are a rage.

“They (My parents) are really proud," said Psy, whose music video holds the record for the most-watched video on YouTube.
