There has got to be styles for each of the other 24 wards of Seoul, so I hope to get acquainted with every single one of them sometime. Thanks. --70.179.167.78 (talk) 06:45, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

PS: It would probably help to bring over some native Koreans to help answer the question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.179.167.78 (talk) 07:21, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Since this appears to be a borderline troll question, I'll just ask you to google the song name, and read a few of the reviews... since it seems to be poking fun at the "upper-east side" version of Seoul. Shadowjams (talk) 08:24, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how you think it's like that. But Gangnam might be the "lower east side" as you'd see on a map in the Gangnam-gu article. I don't know how a search on Gangnam Style would help me find which song types/styles would best match the other districts of Seoul. --70.179.167.78 (talk) 08:26, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

{{cn}} was the tag you wanted.... but please... don't ever edit my, or anyone else's signed comments. Shadowjams (talk) 08:33, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The OP has (at best) somewhat misunderstood the entire premise of the song. It is not intended to represent a musical style pertaining to the District in question, it is satirising the behavior (or "style") of (some of) the comparatively wealthy inhabitants of the District. We cannot know what songs satirising the behavioral styles of those other Districts will sound like until Psy or someone else writes them - musically, they may well be totally different. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 84.21.143.150 (talk) 13:16, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The help explain, just because there's Chicago-style pizza and New York-style pizza, that doesn't mean that there's also Dallas-style pizza. StuRat (talk) 03:17, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Name of Movie[edit]

So there was this movie our professor was telling us about, only that he'd forgotten the name of the film, but he described the plot to us. In it, there's this one scene where the wife's cooking, and the husband comes up from behind and grabs her and the wife pours hot oil over him, and the son of the couple sees that and comes and shoots the wife. The dad takes the blame for the shooting, but makes the son promise that he'll take revenge when he grows up. Anyone know which movie this might be? thanks in advance. :) 106.213.54.199 (talk) 19:25, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
