South Korean star Psy is planning the follow up to his viral hit 'Gangnam Style', and promises that new single 'Gentleman' will usher in a whole new dance-craze.

The song is set to be released to Korean fans on 12 April, but Psy will perform it on public for the first time on 13 April, at an upcoming concert in South Korean capital Seoul.

He's also told his fans to wear white clothes to the event, which is named the 'HAPPENING' concert, and has previously posted a photo of himself in a variety of different white outfits - including a spacesuit and wedding dress.

Speaking on local television yesterday (1 April), Psy said, "I’ve been working and reworking on it continuously and I think the latest version will be the final one.

"This is another very rousing song. Its title is ‘Gentleman’. The dance is one known to all Koreans but new to foreigners. This will be presented in Psy style."

Fans are currently speculating that Psy could be doing a new version of a traditional Korean dance, but the 'Gangnam Style' star is not giving any more details away.


Could 'Gentleman' debut the next dance craze to sweep the nation?

His manager Hwang Kyu-wan told Reuters, "There is still more than a week left before the concert so we can't say (the title) will be unchanged."

The 'HAPPENING' concert apparently cost about $2.7million, and giant LED screens will be installed. It will also be streamed live on YouTube.
