'Oppan Gangnam Style' translates to 'I have the Gangnam style'.

PSY, the stage name of artist of both the song and the video, is referring himself in a third person as Oppa in the song, as he is trying to impress women. The city of Gangnam can be described as the Beverly Hills of South Korea. Therefore, the song translates to 'I have the Gangnam Style'. For example, a guy in New York City may say, 'I've got the Manhattan style', or the "Wall Street" style, etc.

Oppa literally means 'big brother'.

Oppa-n literally means 'big brother is'.

The term Oppa is used by a younger female sibling in referring to her older brother, and is also commonly used by girls or women in referring to any males who are older, close and familiar.
