South Korean. Kang Nam ("Gang Nam") is a district in Seoul. It refers to "South of the river"; according to Wikipedia, Gangnam District " is a very affluent area of Seoul, and is by far the wealthiest neighborhood in all of South Korea. As a result, it has become a symbol of both wealth and income inequality in the country."
Also, "The 2012 international K-pop hit "Gangnam Style" by Korean rapper-singer Psy, was inspired by this area, and is a satire of the extreme wealth and conspicuous consumption in Gangnam."

I understand about one word in 12.

The video must be big, though, I saw a reference on the Second Infantry Division's Facebook page to "The Real Kang nam Style."
