What is the Gangnam Style trend?

The Gangnam Style trend comes from a TikTok filmed on a street corner in Gangnam, Seoul, at night: three friends take turns in front of a wide-angle phone camera, lip-syncing the chorus of the 2012 K-pop hit while the camera whips from one to the next in a single take. It went viral in October 2026, and people started using AI to swap themselves into the middle spot. Your video keeps the same moves, camera swings and horizontal frame, with two AI-generated friends beside you.

It's horizontal, like the original. Add the Gangnam Style sound when you post.

How long does it take?

Usually about 18 minutes. Keep the page open and your video appears when it's ready. If a video fails, your credit goes back automatically.

Is this the official Gangnam Style video?

No. Try a Trend is an independent AI tool that recreates the look and moves of the trend with your own photo. We're not affiliated with the song, its artist or label, the creators of the viral TikTok, or TikTok itself, and your video doesn't use any footage from the original clip.

Who are the two friends in my video?

They're AI-generated, fictional people, not anyone from the original clip. Only the person in the middle changes: that's you. The friends, the street and every camera swing are the same in every video.

Why is the video horizontal?

Because the original is. The viral clip is one wide, horizontal take with the camera swinging between three people, so your video is 16:9 too. TikTok, Instagram and YouTube all play horizontal videos; on a phone held upright it shows with space above and below.

Does it work for guys too?

Yes. Whoever is in your photo takes the middle spot, in the clothes from the photo, and the two friends stay the same. It's just as funny with your boyfriend, your dad or your best friend (with their OK).

Does the video include the song?

No. Videos are silent so you can add the trending sound directly inside TikTok or Instagram, where it is licensed.

What happens to my photo?

It is used only to make your video and is deleted automatically within 72 hours.
