Vocal Coach Reaction To So Hyang - Bridge Over Troubled Water - Ken Tamplin
Kim Sohyang, is a South Korean Christian singer known for her controlled, skillful, and developed voice who has been dubbed by the international media as the "Korean Mariah Carey". According to Sohyang, her goal is to use her voice to comfort people who are going through difficult times.
She was brought to my attention by fans from my youtube channel.
I had never heard of her before but now I am really glad I did!
Check her out. She is awesome!

Arirang is a song of Korea. It’s believed to be first sang over 600 years ago, and passed down from generation to generation. It embodies the spirit of the people of Korea for centuries. Arirang represents the suffering and tribulation (Arirang 'Hill') overcome as people and the nation. If we’re together as one holding hands, we can make it over the hill.
Arirang Alone is a modern song written in the hope of reunification of Korea. It’s a song of hope and peace. It tells a fantasy of the Island of Dokdo floating in the East Sea all alone singing Arirang. If Dokdo sang Arirang, alone in the Eat Sea, would North and South reunite?
Dokdo is in the central location from Mount Baekdu (in northern border of North Korea) and Mount Halla (in Jeju Island, South Korea). Let’s ride a boat together from Baekdu and Halla. When we dock our boats at Dokdo, we’ll witness a new dawn together.
The songwriter’s parents had to leave two sons and a daughter in North Korea during the war. His father’s dying wish to him was “when Korea reunite, go find your older brothers and sister and tell them that their parents did not abandoned them”.
Tears in my eyes reading this
So she's essentially singing a piece of propaganda.
@@iamperplexed4695 millions of families were separated during the Korean War. It's been 6 decades since the country was split into two. There's nothing political about families and people of one nation wanting to be reunited.
I Am Perplexed Lmfao no. You must have been fed some propaganda yourself tho if you think that hoping for south and North Korea to reunify is propaganda.
this made me cry thanks
In an interview, she actually said the she turned down huge major deals for international stardom but she declined all of them because she doesn't really want fame and she only wants to sing for and to the Lord.
She is an angel Who like to sing. Wonderfull Lady.
Dave Clarion Daing good for her!!
sad to hear that
she's a wise woman.
Admirable to make such decision for her beliefs, good for her. I do think she would become very famous if her music was marketed in the US, but the industry just ruins and commercializes everything most of the time. They focus too much in selling "sexy" instead of the music in talent.
Wow...she is 40 years old!!! NO WAY!! I thought she was like in her early 20s!! Beautiful voice and beautiful lady!! #shockedbyherage
Actually she is 42..
@@JKOH5656 she's 41
@@Gisaround In Korea when you are born you are one years old. 42 is her Korean age, 41 is her international age.
TJ Aiken wow! I have several Asian friends and I tell them that they never age. They tell me BS. Compared to Caucasians they don’t. My parents didn’t look their age and sadly they died at 62 and 63. I did not been for them getting cancer the same year, & cancer took my 62-year-old dad looking like a 50-year-old man to a 75-year-old man and dead in six months, he would have continued running 6 miles a day. He was an awesome shape but pancreatic cancer is a monster. This woman is beautiful and her voice is angelic.
@@montereyharris1277 im an asian. i looked like 45 when i was 18.. i still look like 45 and im 45. so asians dont age thing is true.
She has a version of "Oh Holy Night". She absolutely kills it bro, you should check it out. By the way she is a Christian Korean artist. Sings only for free and to bless people. She's a cancer survivor too... She has an amazing story yo tell...
Thanks for the suggestion, Kiran!
kiran kumar shes always shouting..not pleasant sound when its not like singing but shouting
Intonation and diction its not good also
@@nicrafaela1185 What is singing ? Is it not vocalization of emotions or expressions in a manner that is pleasing to a wide variety of audience ? If so, then everyone who likes to hear her sing would like to disagree with you on the definition of pleasant and singing.
Her voice touches me like no other ..
She's the best female singer!!! Wawww😳😱😍
I'm a huge fan of Sohyang. I understand she really doesn't want much more fame then she already has. Her favorite kind of music is Christian.
Steve buckskinner 54 Lovely!
The G5 you hit along with Sohyang just blew me away.
despairingleonardo Cool!
@@kentamplin really man, I was fricked out by your g5 too😂😂
@@billiejean1310 Blew me away too....just not in a good way.
Many korean and international producers tried to make her sign for commercial stuff but she is not interested in making money with her singing since she is christian and believe that she have to sing for the Lord. In fact she only sung in churches but once she was invited in a show and she could see a woman crying during her performance so she decided to perform more often in shows to share her talent with people to inspire them but not for commercial stuff or making money.
Lorena Dávila that's really cool. Thanks for sharing!
No wonder why i have never heard of her! Just now! And she is gifted!
Lorena Dávila 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️. Good for her!!
So Hyang, queen of mixed voice. You can tell why I'm calling her that! :)
Pavel Danuletiu I can!
queen of belting too.
Dimash king of mixed voice.
@@verlex That would be Jeffrey Lewis
@@verlex dimash strains exceed E4
Imagine Dimash & Sohyang singing together :o
Renzo Cisneros Amazing!
I can picture them singing songs like “Earth Song” and “You Raise Me Up”. Those two would be a match made in heaven.
That would be indeed so amazing. It's a shame some of both singers' fandoms are fake vocal experts who attack each other though. They should know that the both are amazing talents and have legit techniques.
John Roh yeah. People need to realize that their techniques are so advanced that best singers in the world would struggle to sing some of their most difficult songs. The hardest dimash song I have covered was his rendition of “All By Myself” by Celine Dion and I had no problem learning that within a couple of weeks. But if you asked me to sing diva dance, then thank u next.
The world destruction xD
She covers Lean on me by Michael bolton too.. I died..
Thanks for sharing, Faizol!
She won the Immortal Song 2 competition with this song, with Michael Bolton in attendance. Apparently, she was given some award for this song in Canada (I vaguely remember someone writing about this). After the competition, Michael Bolton was so impressed by her that he invited her to join him in his Korean concert tour. I know they sang The Prayer together.
Lean on me is written by Bill Withers who performed the song in 1972. It's not Michael Bolton's song.
Me too! I almost died:)
George Prime she sang it on the Michael Bolton special
Thanks for reacting sohyang
It’s my dream to see this video
Popular Movies My pleasure!
"Mona lisa" of Sohyang, a rock song, I recommend it for you ! And thank you very much for your reaction of my Queen Sohyang !! P.S : She's a gospel singer in South Korea ! 😉
Thanks for the suggestion, FOUDROYANT 12!
Highly recommend this since her cover “Mona Lisa” suits your utmost interest.. rock genre
Sohyang's it's only my world is also rock
RushD Yus And ‘it’s only my world’ that’s also rock style, Mona Lisa is a bit more pop-py but has some amazing notes
You wont get tired of this singer
Babymetal Sheets I don't think so either. Her voice is amazing!
@@kentamplin she really is addictive - she's a special one
Thanks for this. Its introduced me to another amazing singer that sent shivers up my spine.
I laughed at the first amazing note she reached as I was thinking about how it's the angelic inhuman quality of voices like this that make it so powerful....then you just casually, sat in a chair, throw out the same notes. Amazing.
Glad you enjoyed it, Scousie Red!
I’ve been following her since to 2017. Please also react to her singing I have nothing Whitney Houston cover. She kills it!
You can joy to my chanell.
so hyang did a rock performance called mona lisa which has amazing rock highnotes. react to that please! The full video is only on vimeo though
afro jack thanks for the suggestion! I'll check it out!
She said when she was in LA she taught the mixed of chest voice to headvoice it is the vocal coach that also the same vocal coach of Michael Jackson
ChimChims Wifey Thank you.
Talent is talent. Makes no difference what country you are from.
Arirang alone is a song about uniting Korea once again
Thanks for sharing, Luis!
Try "Everyone" next. It's in Korean. It's her vocal masterpiece. Even she said that it is her hardest to sing so far. There's a version with English subtitles in Vimeo.
Dave Clarion Daing Thanks for the suggestion.
OMG! I was satisfied with you doing Bridge Over Troubled Water, but you added Arirang Alone to the video too? Awesome! I forgive you for being nitpicky about forward singing( I love it!) , lol. As long as you give her props, it may not be your preferred way, but it works!
Rosannasfriend I'm glad I've redeemed myself!
@@kentamplin Thank you for critquing her. I think you are being nice. She is singing with a lot of constriction on those high larynx notes! closing her throat! i am sorry, her technique is terrible! atrophied chest voice, there is no squillo! her voice is terrible. pinched and noisy
@@kentamplin You are being nice to this people.. Their techniques are terrible! their voice is high larynx and not round! the terrible brightness and pinched sound..remove the mics and all you hear is noise... they do not have true squillo. Their chest voice is atrophied and the overtones and harmonics that thyroarrythenoid muscles which should be the core sound.. is missing! this is terrible singing Ken Tamplin and you know it... you are being nice..
@@olusegunodumosu2024 Lol... nice try, Troll.
@@olusegunodumosu2024 Wow we finally found you we've been looking for that one person who thinks Sohyang is terrible it took years but here you are the search is over everyone!!!
She's amazing... Good to hear you mention that she's awesome and your critiques are just tweaks to get her to that NEXT level of fabulous! Also, you have a phenomenal range haha first time I've ever heard you sing, wowza!
Thanks Candace!
@@kentamplin well if she drops the high larynx and wide mouth singing.. her high notes go!
@@olusegunodumosu2024 I have little doubt So Hyang would blow you off the stage vocally and into last week.
Im the big fans of SO HYANG... Im so love it..
And im so happy when you smile to So Hyang...
Many thanks for the reaction boss. Sohyang is a 40yo gospel/CCM singer from Korea. She has been doing this for more than 20 years, and is also an incredible person with a heartfelt personal story and motivation to sing. Here are two more for you from the same show, I think you are going to love them:.
"Lean on me" ua-cam.com/video/GvsgCllcNPE/v-deo.html Michael Bolton was a guest on this episode, and the singers invited did covers of some of his songs/performances. Sohyang chose a fresh take on a song that Michael had extensively covered in the past. And it was epic.
"Raise me up" ua-cam.com/video/te_L9ofhUt8/v-deo.html Shane from Westlife was a guest on this episode. Beautiful re-arrangement (the theme of the show is to invite notable Korean artists, make them re-arrange with their teams well known songs and then sing them live on stage) and execution.
Keep the goodness coming, cheers..C:
Dante800 Thanks for the info.
@@kentamplin Please react to So Hyang ' Lean on me ' and ' Everyone ' you will be amaze by her ^_^
Thanks for the suggestion Buffy Slayer!
THAT is why Dimash is King and Sohyang is Queen. Sohyang with TSO would have me freaking out... lol
Agreed Julie Keese! What a great combination that would be!
A lot of "Stanish" people have Asian DNA, which would explain why Dimash looks like a BTS member. The pronunciation of Korean words may explain why her oral formation of certain verbs are altered. She's a cervical cancer survivor & devoted Christian, which may lend to her "church" sound. My Korean family have been devoted Catholics since the 1500's. Go figure.
My vocal Queen 👑
So Hyang is one of the best female singers alive and I'm really happy that you reacted to her video and I would recommend her arirang alone performance she just slayed it.just killer... KILLER
pardon me, I didn't know that you reacted to Arirang alone also and she has a beautiful version of "you raise me up".
her signature note is a mixed Bb5 and she can belt up to C#6.
Awesome reaction video Ken! ☺🖒 So hyang has a beautiful voice! :)
dan She sure does!
She is one devout Christian.... Sometimes she closes her eyes right before performing.... She actually prays to the Holy Spirit for a perfect performance... She has a great story to tell...
When someone asked So Hyang how she learned to sing such high notes--and so smoothly--she said she listened to a Disney movie when she was a kid hundreds of times and just imitated it. She didn't know that she "wasn't supposed to be able to do that" so she just did it anyway and thought little of it. (That's how she learned English, too!) Oh man! What a God given genius talent she is! No one touches me with her singing more than So Hyang, and I'm a 61 year old guy that is far more into the blues and blues-driven rock and roll!
She also teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and refuses to sign any recording contracts with the international corporations. She is convinced it will destroy her spiritually, since she is a Christian, and quotes Proverbs 14:12 and 16:25 "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death." The excesses of the entertainment industry are repulsive to her, and after seeing the kind of people big "stars" turn into, I can't mount any kind of rational argument against her! She just wants to sing to raise money for charities, churches and missionary work. She took a lesson from Seth Riggs one time and says she learned virtually everything else on her own. Where do such people come from?
Moreover, she also has persistent problems from hepatitis B (from a blood transfusion when she had cancer surgery when she was 20) and is very prone to pneumonia. You can imagine how she feels with this coronavirus pneumonia pandemic all over the world and in South Korea! She has asked for her fans to pray for her protection from any more bouts of pneumonia, thus it is a very serious concern for her. She sang her "You Raise Me Up" performance for Shane Filan while still suffering from pneumonia. What can anyone say? She is a literal Wonder Woman!
Here is an English language interview she did for a Seoul FM radio station that explains a lot of what she is about. I KNOW you will enjoy it! ua-cam.com/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/v-deo.html

소향 짱 현존하는 가수중에 최고의 가창력 소유자 외국인도 인정할 수 밖에. ..
You answered ok, i will very cheerfully. You really understood her message and are a delightful Reactor.
Appreciate your comments on promoting those lesser known singers who can bring joy to many more people around the world in this global village. Agree also with your observation that music from all corners of the world is coming together. Music is a language for which words are optional. The melody and rhythm have their own stories to tell without the language barrier. World class talents can be appreciated no matter what language they speak. Thanks for spending some time with Sohyang.
Yukuo Lee Well said. Thank you!
She doesn't need popularity she just want people who want and appreciate his singing by the way thank you so much for this video 😊
너노래좀해?
She's so amazing. She and Dimash made me cry the first time I heard them. I love them. So inspiring.
MindlessMusings-They are both amazing!
@@kentamplin yes they are! Both of them give me motivation to continue practicing singing even if I'll never get to that level. It's just something I love. The emotions they provoke when they perform. It's just so incredible. Ugh. None of my friends get it when I talk about it. This comment section feels like home though xD I'm like "finally! People understand how I feel!"
SoHyang is a sincere vocalist and artist who sings with her soul.
Thank you so much for your reaction and analysis. 🙇
Yes she does Hyang Lee! Thank you!
i respect her, truly. she had to battle the big C in her twenties ... im so happy she keeps performing untill now. she is amazing
She definitely is, MaraKpop Greece!

I cry everytime I hear her 💙Great review ! I love how bright she is , but my favorite part of her "Bridge Over Troubled Water" is how WARM and BACK and RESONANT she goes when she says "ALLLLLL AAAAAROUNDDD"! Best part , man 🤘🏻
Emi Pellegrino I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
In Korean culture they are perfectionist when it comes to their professional lives. They are very competitive. Also I'm finding out many Korean artists can speak more than one language.
Wow thank you so much!!! I like your reaction please more more sohyang
You are welcome, Ha Min Hwang!
Hi, Ken Tamplin, I'm so glad you reacted to So Hyang ! What the beautiful and amazing performances that were born with her unique voice and incredible singing ability !!! Thanks for your truly nice reaction ! From the U.S.
Bruce Lee Thank you!
You're here again lol. Man you really are an example of confirmation bias. If Ken thinks Dimash's techniques are great and he confirms Sohyang's great, you should take that objectively, not selectively. Being a fan boy is okay but just don't put a great singer down. I love both of them and they are both great technicians. Why can't you just accept that?
Kim So-hyang (born April 5, 1978), credited as Sohyang, is a South Korean singer.
She made debut in 1996 with the song "MR", which was released on Naver Music. Despite having a long career in South Korea, she was only able to make her international breakthrough in 2014, when she became the first Korean artist to sing the American national anthem at a NBA game. Sohyang also achieved fame when she sang with Michael Bolton & Kirk Franklin. Her has participated many times on television music competition programs Immortal Songs 2 and I Am a Singer, and the last King of Masked Singer (2017) winning twice on Immortal Songs 2 with songs "Lean on Me" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and You raise me Up 2018.
Disney's making contract with her in movie Moana, Sohyang voiced the protagonist in the Korean-dubbed version, for the singing parts (How far I'll go).
Sohyang's voice type is a Lyric Soprano, specifically a Full Lyric Soprano. Her vocal range spans from D3 to A6, 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. This skill has been very much well showcased all throughout her career.
I would be very curious to know what you think of Song Sohee, the most naturally gifted singer from Korea imo. She is singing in a traditional "Gugak" style, very unusual but yet unbelievable.
Thanks for the suggestion, Max!
Ive already watched that vid of arirang so many Times, until now its giving me a goosebump, Thank u for reacting her
Irish Dimaangay Thanks for viewing!
I understand what you're saying but numerous people have tried to sign & promote her but she doesn't sing to be famous,she just wants her music to help people in hardship feel better. If you know about her background you may understand

Sohyang is spectacular singer but she never promote her self to be a famous. She doesnt have a social media to promote her self like another singer. She just want sing to comfort people. Amazing from sohyang. Sohyang fans from Indonesia
Victor Tarigan I respect that.
I think that is exactly what So Hyang and Dimash are doing, combining the best techniques from opera and pop styles into one magnific music. Gotta love them for that. Thanks
I'm loving it too, Santiago!
So Hyang has turned down record deals because becoming famous is not a priority to her. She has chosen to keep her career small so she can focus on providing uplifting music to people in need.
Should take a minute and read her Wiki page, it is quite the journey.
Thanks for sharing, Greg!
She doesn't wanna be a Rock Star. She just wanna sing to make people happy and surely she is using her talent in that way. That mindset of her is all shown by her attitudes and that's what makes 소향 so great and exceptional...^^
I agree with you 오재경!
Omg thank you for reacting to her!!♥♥
Kk Blanche Thanks for listening.
Awesome reactions Ken! I hope you could also react to her masked performances beginning with Dear Love as these are on a different level. Looking forward!
thanks for the suggestion jun dela cruz!
My all time favourite Dear Love. About a woman whose husband abandoned her for a younger neighbour, and how she pines for her despite his cheating on her. The song was written for a drama.
The song is sung with lots of pain and wailing, one waves after another with increasing intensity. It is so beautiful yet painful. I teared every single time I listen to Sohyang sings this song.
Cant stop crying!

I really appreciate your reaction towards this. Like its genuinely constructive critism, even if she did a very good job but a little critism can bring her so much forward and much higher so critism isn't always that bad. i also agree that vocalist like this or TNT and dimash should get the appreciation they deserved, they should be known worldwide :D
Arirang is a traditional Korean folk song that all of us Koreans know. It is believed that "Arirang" originated in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province. According to a legend, the name is derived from the story of a bachelor and a maiden who fell in love while picking camellia blossoms near the wharf at Auraji (아우라지). There are two versions of this story. In the first one, the bachelor cannot cross the Auraji to meet the maiden because the water is too high so they sing a song to express their sorrow. In the second version, the bachelor attempts to cross the Auraji and drowns, singing the sorrowful song as he dies. During the Japanese occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945, "Arirang" became a resistance anthem against Imperial Japanese rule. Korean protesters sang "Arirang" during the March 1 Movement, a Korean demonstration against Japan in 1919. Many of the variations of "Arirang" that were written during the occupation contain themes of injustice, the plight of laborers, and guerrilla warfare. In modern times, it's a song about uniting with our brothers and sisters up north and is an emotionally packed song that many Koreans hold dear. This was probably the best version of Arirang I have ever heard sung and when this aired, I know it moved many Koreans to tears. I can't underline the sheer emotional strength this song has on us in South Korea.
Very cool information Joshua Fuhrman! Thanks for educating me!
You are so good! Amazing critique and I can see knowledge with everything you say. And that fact you sing along to demonstrate audibly your statements/critiques is so good.
Alex V Thanks. I appreciate that!
Much respect to Miss So Hyang! 👏 Her vocal prowess, technic and control allows for that mix to go in to the stratosphere, it's possibly the highest I've ever heard (aside from Dimash). Her head voice is heavenly and she emotes beautifully, her technic is class A! Her belts remind me of Celine Dion, who in my opinion is the belting queen, the power behind them is immense. 🤯 For me vocal discernment plays a big part, she knows her voice and what and where she can go with it. This is why vocal lessons are so important in my opinion, some things are God given and some things can be taught. Quite frankly if I'm being honest, I hear vocal careers imploding worldwide mine included! 🤦♀️ By the way you're a vocal coach, critiquing is part of the job because that's the only way any one can learn and some of us are hear to learn from your opinions, as long as the respect is there and it is, critique away my friend!
😀

New Hope 👍👍👍
@@kentamplin You have probably done this already Ken, but when you hear Sohyang sing in the 6th octave you will be shocked. She just doesn't fade as she goes up the scale! I can't really say that I've ever heard anyone who can sing like that and not fade out as she goes up. Sohyang says that it even makes her own head hurt when she does that because it will resonate so much. She is just flat out absolutely amazing. Period. 🤔😲💘😏
Awesome reaction, interesting perspective from a vocal coach, thanks.
It's great to see you appreciate songs with an international flavor, Ken. A great singer is a great singer in any culture or language, and it's pretty heartwarming to see a true voice expert like you recognizes it.

So Hyang is the BEST!!!
Now react to Lean on me by SoHyang. Killer vocals!
Thanks for the suggestion Layla Grace! I'll see what I can do.
I feel like to really appreciate this song you have to understand why Arirang is such an important song in Korean culture. I would highly suggest listening to Song So Hee sing Arirang from various regions in the traditional fashion.
OMG.KOR singer.! I've been wathing your clips over the years from KOREA. Even i tried to visit your studio in Hawaii. wow..I couldn't expect you to introduce Korean singer. I am so glad to see that.
Bytheway, You are the greatest teacher on earth. I got lots of help from your video. Thanks.
1. Sohyang is devout Christian. she started her career as a CCM singer.
2. Her best skill is Whistle Voice as good as Mariah.
3. Arirang is traditional korean song and there are various version. Nat king cole liked Arirang also he sang a song.
5. She performed "Lean on Me" in front of Michael Bolton and she was invited his world tour.
6. She is first Korean singer who perform in NBA. Chris Paul said "it was the best National Anthem ever."
7. There were lots of singing competition by professional singer. Sohyang won a lot but not always.
There are many great singer including her. Psy, BTS cannot represent K-POP fully.
8. I couldn't believe what i ve seen when you approach sohyang's high note!!
BakssaL wow thanks for all that interesting info!
She doesn't whistle and no one comes close to Mariah in that register.
Queen sohyang
larkholic 👍👍👍
W O W her voice is gorgeous WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had to pause at 3:18 to say that....okay back to the video........ :-)
The World Of Julie Lynn It is!
With Sohyang, most people gets chills and goosebumps when she sings a cover song that is rearranged to suit her vocal range. Yes, 90% of the time you will be shook. You don't see female vocalists doing what she does because it is not just a note but half or three quarter of the song full of power belting and high notes. Easy for us to sing just a note to match, but extremely difficult to perform on stage in front of live audience powering through flawlessly.
Very cool coach 🤟🏻 what an incredible coach 👍🏻 hope you to continue react to her another songs. Thanks
Thank you Jesonoel I really appreciate that!
Ken you finally did thank you. Another great vid 👌🏻
Glad you enjoyed it, Grant!
She's brilliant!
Trish Hinkle 👍👍👍👍
That was eyes watering GOOD.
PenkkiPekka I agree!
The more eye watering songs would be Dear Love, Hug Me, Fate, Where are you and Saldaga - more impactful with Eng sub. Enjoy.
Just unbelievable she's awesome, But I do believe she was born with a god givin talent and I'm a big believer in that.
HotGates Likely so.

You are welcome, mitsoswu! :)

She did some lives singing songs more close to rock stuff like Mona lisa
Cool, Mt X!
I saw a lot of female singers since over 30 years.... but this is fantastic. She is a very humble, natural and down to earth. she is a very nice human. KISS!!!
