Park Jae Sang (born December 31, 1977), professionally known as PSY, is a Korean hip hop artist. Although not a mainstream hip hop artist, he is popular underground due to his sense of humor and his unique concerts where he imitates female singers such as Park Ji Yoon and Lee Hyori. He has appeared on numerous variety programs including Good Sunday: X-Man and The Golden Fishery.

He received education in the United States from both Boston University and Berklee College of Music. He showed off his own sense of style and music in his first album, which also confirmed his creativity. He was fined for this album, for being accused that his music promoted inappropriate content for underage listeners. His second album was also banned, with people claiming it was inappropriate for listeners under the age of eighteen.
