"I look forward to bringing Gangnam Style to the glamorous world of F1, and welcome everyone to Korea for this great race," Psy, an ambassador for the race in Yeongam, told the official Formula One website.
His duties include waving the chequered flag at the end of the race, local media said on Wednesday.
Sports stars including Novak Djokovic and West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle have celebrated by copying Psy's dance moves, and his song shot to number one in the British music charts -- despite being sung almost entirely in Korean.
