Pop singer PSY will unveil another version of his hit music video "Gangnam Style" this week, his management agency said Monday.

The new video whose title translates into "Oppa, You're Just My Type" in English will be put on major online music sites for free on Wednesday, YG Entertainment said.

PSY, whose real Korean name is Park Jae-sang, rose to stardom on YouTube for the video of his new single "Gangnam Style".

The video in which the singer demonstrates a comical horse-riding dance had attracted 26.9 million views as of Monday morning.

PSY made the new video as a token of his appreciation toward his fans who love "Gangnam Style", the company said.

The music video for "Oppa" has the same melody as "Gangnam Style" but different lyrics written from the viewpoint of the women of Gangnam, an affluent area in southern Seoul.

On Wednesday, PSY will leave for Los Angeles where he will meet with the entertainment agency of Canadian pop star Justin Bieber, according to YG.

It said the two sides will discuss working in collaboration but declined to give more details. (Yonhap)
