    A warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang. She is Korean, now 43, a ccm/gospel singer, devout Christian, cancer survivor, university lecturer, cartoonist and an author of fantasy novels. She is one of the best female vocalists on the planet. She is an independent artist, with no social media, who has turned down contracts from the big labels (including from Sony in 2020) over the years. She says that her goal is to use her voice in order to bring comfort to those going through difficult times. Arirang is a folk song (apprx 600 years old) which depicts the hope and longing of the unification of Korea. Sohyang does all the arrangements of her performances, with her team. Check out her performances of Bridge Over Troubled Water and You Raise Me Up, (2018) making sure they are from the show Immortal Songs 2. Thank you so much for your reaction and analysis, really enjoyed it. Look forward to the next Sohyang reaction.

    Great thing about reacting to So Hyang is you will never run out of material. She has over 100 live performances that are better than recording studio versions. Not only that you will feel roller-coaster of emotions when you listen to her. You will feel blessed afterwards. Take care.

  • @peerah
    @peerah 2 роки тому +8

    Everyone is certainly a masterpiece and Bridge Over Troubled Water from Immortal Singers are amazing and popular requests from her fans. Other live versions of Bridge are good too but she was sick for some of them so she was not 110% but you could barely tell. Maybe this is an unusual preference, but I LOVE her performance of Hug Me. It’s super heartbreaking especially if you know the meaning of the lyrics (gotta have the subtitles on). Misty from Begin Again Korea is also amazing. I Will Always Love You is also great and she does something quite surprising during the interlude. Any of her duets from that show is also spectacular. I love Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas. I’m a shower singer who’s interested in range expansion/tension reduction/overtone enhancement and a big fan of divas queens from east and Southeast Asia. I love them all equally and there is so much to learn from their technique so please keep these videos coming!

  • @jayhahm
    @jayhahm 2 роки тому +8

    It was a quite good reaction video I enjoyed. Especially, some reactionists try to talk about technical thing too much but yours is just optimum. I strongly recommend you to react to Sohyang's 'Every one', 'Bridge over troubled water', 'Lean on me', 'I'll always love you', 'Oh, Holly night', 'Amazing Grace', and there are many.... Again, thank you for your reaction and look forward to seeing more reaction of Sohyang's performance.

    We all wonder if So Hyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an Angel come down from Heaven. We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. She does all the musical arrangements herself (with the input of her musical assistants), teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks four languages. Korean, English, French and Vietnamese.
    Let me catch my breath. OK.
    She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: ua-cam.com/video/te_L9ofhUt8/v-deo.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her,
    Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on UA-cam and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted So Hyang and went to Japan in order to perform eight concerts together at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018.

    The only constructive criticism I'd have is that when you pause, it can be good practice to hit the left arrow button to rewind a few seconds... can help keep the flow. Sometimes, if it's a long-held note, go back to the beginning of the note or phrase. Great reactions so far!!!

    Kim So Hyang is a devout Christian and any and all her training was done singing gospel songs at church, she never had any classic training other than pushing herself. A survivor of cancer but still struggles with pneumonia often time has episodes develop and she has performed while under the illness. She is one of my favorites from South Korea and to be honest it is all I listen to nowadays. My all-time favorite is a singer that not everyone dares to react to and she is loved by millions of fans throughout Asia and that is Cho Yung Jin aka ALi. So Hyang and ALi along with another powerhouse sing Park Ki Young are the best of friends often collaborate and duet.

    Sohyang has a beautiful and disciplined voice. Her cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water gets me every time. Seeing her on stage in her white attire reminded me of another technical and emotional masterpiece: Shoshana Bean singing Make It Rain with big band backing her, at The Theatre At Ace Hotel. Individuals actually stood up in the middle of the song to applaud her. It's a must-see.

  • @pickin4you
    @pickin4you 2 роки тому +6

    As far as her training, she came to the U.S. and started with Seth Riggs, who was Michael Jackson’s vocal coach. He is who taught her most of what she knows, but she is also a scholar and I am sure studied on her own. She can sing just about any genre, but is a contemporary Christian singer.

    someone posted this info helpful... 👉 Kim Sohyang (called Sohyang) * 1978 in Gwangju, South Korea. She is self-taught and a real all-rounder.
    Sohyang comes from poor divorced parents. As a teenager, she converted to Christianity and planned to become a cartoonist and artist. Instead, she joined a band and married drummer Kim Hee-jun. She started singing late and has no formal vocal training, but since has had some lessons from Seth Riggs (American voice coach).
    Two months after her marriage, she required uterine surgery and was told she would not be able to have children. She was 21 years old then.
    She decided to devote her life to singing for God and the comfort and joy of people. She is also a fantasy novelist, gives singing lessons at the Music House Academy in her home town and is a guest speaker at a university.
    She made her singing debut in 1996. She only became known in 2012 through her participation in the second season of the Korean singing competition I am A Singer.
    Sohyang became the first Korean female artist to sing the American national anthem at an NBA game.
    After the huge success in 2017 in the "King of Mask Singer" (Korea), Sohyang’s appearances became less and less. She was struggling with severe pneumonia, which came back eight times and almost took her voice away.
    Sohyang, hailed as "Korean Mariah Carey" for her outstanding vocal skills, shared how obsessed she was. She didn't want to damage her reputation, didn't allow herself to make any mistakes. So when she was stripped of sheen, all she could do was repent and reflect on her Christianity. She realized that the most important thing as a singer was to comfort people about not being perfect.
    She rejects contract offers from major music agencies for reasons of belief (Sony Music in the USA). She says, "... I'm perfectly fine sharing my music on UA-cam, which can do to tens of millions of people around the world without feeling stuck. Maybe that's why I was born around this time."
    Sohyang's vocal type is a lyric soprano, specifically a Full-Lyric Soprano. Her vocal range spans from D3 to A6 (supported range from G # 3 to E6), a total of 3 octaves, 3 notes, and a semitone. She is known for her emotive and powerful vocals, with characteristics being a homogeneous, rounded, and bright instrument of remarkable beauty and meticulous control.
    Even if she is not the most famous singer in the world but she is one of the best. This woman is fire!!!

    Welcome to the world of SoHyang~!!!
    She is CCM/GOSPEL SINGER of South KOREA and cancer survivor. .
    She is one of the greatest vocalist in the world.But She wasn't known as well as popular because She sing for GOD and Comfort people who has hardtime Not for fame or money. ..In her youth, she turned down all offers from mega agencies for her beliefs...and now she is 44years old. .She has so many legendary live performances .
    She always sings with sincerity whenever and wherever. So it comforts those who listen to her song...That's why I love her...And her singing skills are the best, not to mention...

    A warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang. :) Good job on the pronunciation of her name. No butchering.
    Arirang Alone is a very emotional song about the longing for the north and south to reconcile. It's considered the unofficial national anthem of Korea.
    I suggest her cover of 'Bridge over Trouble Water" from immortal Songs 2 next.

    We all wonder if Sohyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such _POWER_ it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself, with the input of her in-law family and musical assistants, teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks five languages: Korean, English, French, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading Greek!
    Let me catch my breath. OK.
    She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all eagerly worked with her when they were in Asia.
    She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: ua-cam.com/video/te_L9ofhUt8/v-deo.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere!
    She just turned 43 on April 5, 2021, though in Korean culture she would be 44 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone”, their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527
    After being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international attention from the performances being posted on UA-cam.
    Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on UA-cam and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted Sohyang and went to Japan in order to have her perform eight concerts with him at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. For those who don't know, David Foster was Whitney Houston's producer for her albums, wrote "I Have Nothing", her most iconic song, and is probably the most famous and influential music producer in the world. He places Sohyang right beside Whitney and the rest of the top tier divas.
    Here is the interview where Sohyang related the events: ua-cam.com/video/EqeE_1nP-Kk/v-deo.html (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.)
    Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster, Whitney's former manager and the rest watched on UA-cam: ua-cam.com/video/T4UyIMkdy4M/v-deo.html
    She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203
    She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 14:12 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”
    In a South Korean television interview Sohyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. Sohyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding international celebrity status from her. ua-cam.com/video/rl-jX9kBsEs/v-deo.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.)
    So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no social media presence whatsoever.
    What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her!
    On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that Sohyang turned down _yet another_ contract offer, this time from Sony Music US. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995
    “Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said.
    “I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.”
    “And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via UA-cam, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.”
    Sohyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble and genuine, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts.
    In Korean dictionaries 소향--Sohyang--has several meanings.
    • First is a type of Korean traditional music.
    • Second is to burn incense on a burner.
    • Third is to go toward.
    But these meanings are rarely used today. Sohyang is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. Yet for the definitive answer Sohyang has stated in an interview that her name means "enjoy the light."
    Please analyze her performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”: ua-cam.com/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/v-deo.html
    Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: ua-cam.com/video/LrNkVRrK7_I/v-deo.html
    Plus this beautiful duet with her friend Lee Hi where they do Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”: vimeo.com/439148918
    And this version of her singing “Oh Holy Night”: vimeo.com/322716334
    Here she performs “Lean On Me” before Michael Bolton, who called her a vocal “virtuoso” after her performance: ua-cam.com/video/GvsgCllcNPE/v-deo.html
    Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: ua-cam.com/video/rte-q3kunp8/v-deo.html
    Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448
    And finally “Will You Be There”: ua-cam.com/video/nBdSpexUxik/v-deo.html
    Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: ua-cam.com/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/v-deo.html Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews.
    OK, I’ll stop gushing now.
    Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer Sohyang's assistants revealed (a bit to her chagrin, as she is a self-effacing person) that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/VnPAkryrygQ/v-deo.html I know, bananas isn’t it?
    Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published fantasy novelist and has a theological treatise on the Book of Revelation in print. In addition, she is a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She taught herself English by watching Disney's "The Little Princess" "about one hundred times" when she was just a kid, speaks English with a _perfect_ North American accent and has a bubbly personality.
    She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Ironically, Sohyang stated in another interview that both she and her in-law family were surprised to discover that she could sing so excellently!
    Though she is less than 5' 4" and only about 100 pounds, Sohyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it, and then re-emerges when she is done. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent _entire days_ listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way.
    I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people Sohyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear, and that is important to note as these are _essential_ elements of any great musical production. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else.
    As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😉

    Great reaction^^
    She is one of the best vocalist in this generation.
    She doesn't make any mistakes on the live stage.
    She is out of this world!!
    Whenever I listen to her song, I think God gave her voice.
    Her song always touch the hearts of audience!!
    Especially her high notes are so amazing, so beautiful and fatal.
    Every time she sings, that song becomes the best version.
    Please reaction more.

    FYI, she is basically a self-taught singer and thus did not have any classical training to speak of.
    She said she learned to sing by listening to the likes of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion... etc.
    However when she started singing professionally, she did take some vocal lessons from well known vocal trainers, she said.
    Her major in college was French literature.

    So Hyang is a miracle and she knows it. She has always had an outsized desire to sing for the world. Well now the world comes to her like just now. You are from? and I am in California at 11:33 pm and So Hyang sang this what 5-6 years ago? So something that was not even conceivable when I was a young man. So she is affecting lives not just in real time but also as time moves forward. Her reach is now around the world and through time. Not bad for a young girl from South Korea. She is one of my top five favorites. Along with; Daneliya Tuleshova of Kazakhstan, Morissette of The Philippines, Angelina Jordan of Norway, Gracie-Jayne Fitzgerald of Wales. I watch them all every day as I am 71 yrs.old and not in good health. But I have my computer and I travel the world listening to my favorites and also new singers that seem to be coming from everywhere.
    Thank you for reaction. I think I'll follow you around awhile. I like your delivery.

    She is the favorite of many vocal coaches. You just won't believe the stack of crazy she has out there. One after another, many highly different from one another but yet still mind boggling. Heck she even raps in one. It sucks being a watcher and knowing what reactors are missing out on lol. Great starting one though. I think it's actually her head voice stuff that is simply the most amazing. A lot of them in masked singer or begin again korea.

    Glad you made you acquaintance with Sohyang, a singer who became my favorite 5 years ago. Clearly you are knowledgeable and articulate about vocal pedagory, but it's how you took joy in enjoying the performance that appeals to me the most in this video. For more Sohyang performance, while there are many fantastic selections to choose from, I would add my two cents for a reaction to her iconic "Bridge Over Troubled Water" @ ua-cam.com/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/v-deo.html

  • @ClandOp
    @ClandOp 2 роки тому +7

    Another great reaction, Bethany. I'd love to hear you react to Sohyang's rendition of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" -- I think her best performance ("Lean on Me" is also outstanding, as is "I Will Always Love You" with solo piano and guitar -- I think she's better than Whitney). Also, would love to see you react to Angelina Jordan singing "Summertime" in the finals of Norway's Got Talent (when she was 8 years old). Thanks!

    Aw. It seems she could sing the 5th element movie aria.
    Is sthat song in pentatonic sale or heptatonic (if the question makes sense) ?
    Your reaction is excellent.
    Just a question: isn't your appreciation of the sound of a video biased with only one earpiece, especially for stereo sound? How do you do it otherwise?

    Probably the best Asian singer is Teresa Teng. A Taiwanese singer who tragically died early at the age of 42 in 1995. One of her best songs is "The Moon Represents my Heart". She was Asia's first superstar.
    "She recorded more than 1,700 songs throughout her career, starting when she was 14 years old, not only in Mandarin, but also in Hokkien, Cantonese, Shanghainese, Japanese, Indonesian, English, and Italian. In 1986, Time named her one of the seven greatest female singers in the world. In 2009, in a poll by a Chinese government web portal, Teng was selected as the "most influential cultural figure in China since 1949" by 8.5 million netizens. In 2010, on the eve of "March 8th International Women's Day," she was voted "the most influential woman in modern China" by the Chinese media and radio stations in and outside the country. Teng was inducted into the "Popular Music Hall of Fame" at the Koga Masao Music Museum in Japan in 2007, making her the only non-Japanese national to do so."
    "Teng was a soprano, according to The New York Times.] She was known for her "soothing and crystalline" singing voice, with her vocal trademark classified as a "quasi-whisper," which David B. Gordon characterises as a "private emotion" in her listeners-as though she were singing for each of them individually. Cultural critic Rey Chow labelled her voice as soft, throaty, and feminine, whereas Mike Levin of Billboard described it as "soft and almost breathless.""
