According to YouTube, the music video has attracted 260.62 million views on the 72nd day since its release on July 15.
"Gangnam Style" quickly became a global sensation after the music video spawned a series of copycat videos on the Internet. The music video, highlighted by Psy's horse-riding dance moves, topped the 100 million mark on Sept. 4, 150 million mark on Sept. 12 and 200 million mark on Sept. 18, the 66th day since its release.
Psy also jumped to No. 11 on U.S. Billboard's coveted Hot 100 chart last Wednesday, a week after making his chart debut at No. 64 with the new song. He is now facing entry to the top 10 list.
He has remained at No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes Chart since he became the first Korean artist to reach the top spot on Sept. 15.
With his popularity spreading from the U.S., where the single first caught on fire, to Europe and Latin America, Psy remained at No. 1 on the iTunes worldwide chart as he topped the iTunes Chart in 30 countries with the single. The countries include Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, Hungary, Argentina and Brazil.
Britain's Official Charts Company had "Gangnam Style" in the third spot on the latest version of The Official Singles Chart released Monday.
Psy will hold a news conference at a Seoul hotel upon returning from a trip to the U.S. on Tuesday, according to his management agency. (Yonhap)
