The ‘Horse Dance’ video by Lee Gil-ya, the 91-year-old president of Gachon University, recorded 1 million views within six days of its release.
On the 10th, Gachon University held the Hanmaeum Festival Water Festival at the Grand Stadium of Seongnam Global Campus, Gyeonggi-do, combining performances and water play. Singer Psy appeared at this festival. Prior to the performance, President Lee took the stage and performed a horse dance choreographed for Psy’s hit song ‘Gangnam Style’. It drew cheers from the students with a stage full of vitality that could not be seen in the 90s.
Gachon University posted an adapted video as short-form content on YouTube and Instagram after receiving requests from students who wanted to see President Lee’s dance again. As of the 26th, this video has 1.1 million views on Instagram. It also attracted 14,000 ‘likes’. YouTube views exceeded 20,000.
President Lee’s age-defying appearance is famous enough to create a ‘meme’ even on the American community site Reddit. Under the video on Gachon University’s Instagram, comments were posted saying, “Bright road more famous than the university,” “The person who stopped time,” and “You don’t seem to be celebrating the 100th anniversary of your birth soon.”
