what's funny about it, is that the the people he is making fun of, don't even realise it's a parody, they love it

He even has a go at the bollywood dancers!! class!

gangnam is an extremely wealthy/expensive suburb in seoul.
oppa is literally 'older brother' but is used by ladies when addressing a close older male friend, or sometimes their boyfriend, although there is another word for boyfriend.

"Gangnam Style" video lampoons its self-importance and ostentatious wealth, with Psy playing a clownish caricature of a Gangnam man.
"The video is rich with subtle references that, along with the song itself, suggest a subtext with a surprisingly subversive message about class and wealth in contemporary South Korean society."
i don't agree with this though,
"And it's a big deal that even this gentle social satire is breaking records on Korean pop charts long dominated by cotton candy."
most koreans (i'm talking the gangnam style kids) are so unfamiliar with satire, that they think he is laughing with them, and not at them
