The viral video of Korean artist PSY’s Gangnam Style has now accumulated more “likes” than any other YouTube video, ever.

While not the most-viewed video, the record-breaking video has garnered almost 270 million views and 2,7 million likes.

The previous holder of the “like” record belonged to LMFAO’s Party Rock Anthem, with the most-viewed record still belonging to Justin Bieber’s “Baby”, which has almost 782 million views.

For those who have not seen the clip, the music video features PSY dancing around in random locations around the Gangnam District in Seoul, South Korea, as a parody and “skewering [of] the Gangnam image”.
