What Is Gangnam Style AI?

Gangnam Style AI is the AI video trend where three friends film a selfie on a lit city square at night and sing along to the "Gangnam Style" song: the one holding the phone sings up close while the other two dance behind, then the phone whips to each friend's solo turn and back, and all three wave goodbye. People also call it the Open Gangnam Style trend, the Gangnam Style AI trend, the Gangnam Style trio and Oppa Gangnam Style AI.

"Gangnam Style" is a K-pop song by the South Korean singer PSY, released on July 15, 2012. It debuted at No. 1 on South Korea's Gaon Chart and peaked at No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and on December 21, 2012 its music video became the first YouTube video to reach one billion views. The name is a Korean coinage for the lifestyle linked with Seoul's Gangnam District.

The trend copies a real selfie video of about 20 seconds: three friends singing along to the "Gangnam Style" song at night on a big city square. On October 19, 2026 the first AI remakes appeared on TikTok, and one by @bikonyavamm passed 3.6 million views. The same day @yapayzekaserisi began remaking it with film-character trios, which passed 1.3 million, 1.1 million and 676,000 views. People now remake it with their friend groups, their pets and character trios.

People make their own with three photos, one for each friend: the one holding the phone, the friend on the left and the friend on the right. You can use friend groups, pets and character trios. The square, the turns and the whip pans stay the same.

Seadanse builds the trio selfie, the night square and the "Gangnam Style" song into our Gangnam Style AI generator. Add one photo, or up to three, and get a 20-second landscape 16:9 video for TikTok and Reels, the full trend from the first selfie to the wave goodbye. The AI puts your three into the trend video's own shots and places. With fewer photos, your friends are made to match. Choose 480p or 720p, with no watermark on exported video, for $9.90 for one 720p video, with no sign-up.

It debuted at No. 1 on South Korea's Gaon Chart, peaked at No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and on December 21, 2012 its music video became the first YouTube video to reach one billion views. Every video made here comes with the "Gangnam Style" song from the first second, using the exact part of the song the trend uses.

What does "Gangnam Style" mean?

"Gangnam Style" is a Korean coinage for the lifestyle linked with Seoul's Gangnam District, a wealthy neighbourhood. It is also the title of PSY's 2012 hit song. In Gangnam Style AI, it names the trend and the song the three friends sing along to on the night square.

Do I need three photos for Gangnam Style AI?

No. One photo is enough. When you upload one photo, your two friends are made to match photo 1 as an adult friend, a character in the same style or another pet of the same kind with a different coat. Add a second and a third photo to pick your friends yourself. Every video has three friends, and one, two or three photos cost the same.

Who holds the phone, and who goes where?

Photo 1 is the phone holder, in the middle of the trio selfie and the wave goodbye, and alone up close singing into the phone and waving at the lens. Photo 2 is the friend on the left, with the first solo, in front of the lit domed building. Photo 3 is the friend on the right, with the second solo and the hair flip, at the stone wall and glass doors. Put the one who should hold the phone in photo 1.

Can I use my cat or dog?

Yes. A cat or a dog can hold the phone or take a solo, and each keeps its own fur. Add a photo of each pet, or add one pet photo and the generator makes the missing friends as other pets of the same kind with different coats. It makes your pets the stars of the night square.

Can I use a cartoon, anime, game or superhero character?

Yes. You can use a cartoon character, an anime character, a game character, a superhero-style character or an AI-made character image. Each keeps its own style in the video. With one character photo, your two friends are made as characters in the same style.

Is Gangnam Style AI free? How much does it cost?

One 20-second 720p video is $9.90 (500 credits), and one $9.90 credit pack covers it. The same pack covers a 480p video too (375 credits). One, two or three photos cost the same. Credit packs are a one-time payment with no subscription, and credits stay valid for 12 months. You buy with no sign-up, and sign-up is free with no card and adds 40 starter credits. The price shows on the Create button before you pay, and a render that fails returns its credits automatically. The Seadanse pricing page lists every credit pack.

Will it look like us?

Yes. Everyone keeps the look from their own photo: face, hair or fur, and clothes. The generator leaves out the background of your photo so you stand right on the night square. A real photo comes out photoreal. Use a photo of one person, pet or character facing the camera with a clear face in good light.

How long is the video, and will it fit TikTok and Reels?

Every video runs 20 seconds, the full trend from the first selfie to the wave goodbye, with the trend's original "Gangnam Style" audio. It exports as a landscape 16:9 MP4, matching the trend videos for TikTok and Reels. You can pick 480p or 720p, and your exported video has no watermark.

Is the Gangnam Style AI video real?
