Seriously, you must see how Psy's Gangnam Style took Singapore by storm

It dominated Singapore's top trending YouTube videos.

According to The YouTube Rewind for 2012, the Psy/Korean Wave continues to make its mark in 2012 with top trending YouTube video going to Psy’s Gangnam Style.

This year, Korean Pop music transcended boundaries and took the world by storm. Singapore rode the K-pop wave along with the rest of the world and grooved to everything from Psy’s ‘Gangnam Style’ to Girls’ Generation’s ‘Twinkle’ video. Cover songs, parodies, and "do-it-yourself" music videos from all genres entertained us in countries near and far. And you participated in conversations at a global scale, uploading videos to share ideas on everything from nonprofit campaigns, to political satire, to new and surprising voices and talents. Plus, all over the world, you tuned in for the most up-to-date news footage of presidential elections, natural disasters and more.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
