The story behind PSY Concert Entrance.
Where it came from
The clip comes from a stadium concert by PSY, the singer behind Gangnam Style. Clips of him launching onto the stage circulate as the PSY entrance jump. We can't confirm which show the best-known clip is from. Phone editing apps later turned it into a template.
Why it caught on
The joke is contrast. A stadium entrance is the biggest welcome a performer can get, so it is funnier when the person on the lift is ordinary: a dad in an apron, a coworker, a friend on their birthday. People share it as a hype clip, not as something realistic.
Get it right
Use a photo of one person, facing the camera, with the face fully visible. Skip sunglasses, masks and heavy filters, because a hidden face comes out less like the person. A group photo confuses the model. Don't expect your face in every shot: one wide stadium shot of about three seconds is too far away to show anyone.
What the PSY entrance AI video is
The same lift launch shows up at PSY's Summer Swag concerts. Here it is in a fan-filmed clip from Yeosu on July 15, 2023, with the launch at about 3:20. Watch the original concert clip on YouTube
