Lee came to further prominence as the creator of the "horse-riding" dance in Psy's 2012 hit song "Gangnam Style". The success and popularity of the move won him the Style of the Year (Choreographer) Award at the 2nd Gaon Chart Music Awards. With the global spread of K-pop and the massive success of "Gangnam Style", Lee has been a vocal activist calling for choreographers to be allowed to claim and collect copyright fees to prevent them from being exploited. He and six other choreographers co-founded the Korea Choreography Association. In 2015 Lee made his debut as a singer and released a single "Druwa", which featured Joohee of 8eight. (en) |
