케이티 김-양화대교/자이언티 @K팝스타 시즌4 14회150222

[@KpopSociology]

본인의 이야기를 노래하는데서 진심이 묻어나서 더더욱 감동이네요. 마음을 울리는 노래

[@moylee656]

개인적으로 지금까지 시즌4에서 이곡이 최고였음.

[@picturingREALITY]

I love how she sings like an old lady with enough soul to last a lifetime. ...But when she's off stage and waiting for her turn, she's a confused dork. Seeing her fall asleep and dose off in the background when other people are being interviewed or performing is literally the best thing about this season.

[@linkeyes28]

picturingREALITY sorry, which episode did she fall asleep??

[@mariselaiii]

Yes I would like to know which episode was it

[@honeybee0809]

She won!! I thought that was hilarious she almost got out then ended up being 1st like if yg didn't save her...

[@anho5575]

Her expressions is the reason why she is my #1 contestant, it is really unique. It is just how she is, very natural and it has been like that since the beginning. Love her dorky face when she is watching other contestants on the previous episodes. That dorky face, damn she is so beautiful when she smile.

[@anho5575]

***** did you see her Top10 performace? OMG I DieD!!

[@Joeny_Depps]

Damn that was awesome. I feel like I haven't ever heard a Korean song sung like this before. She is amazing and her talent deserves to be in the Top 10.

[@Jin-qk9vy]

She made it into TOP10!

[@honeybee0809]

She won!! I thought it was hilarious that she almost got out and then ended up winning like if yg didn't save her...

[@haileYL8888]

'Mom, let's all be happy.. don't be sick.. let's all be happy...' You cry when you hear the word 'mom'.. Katie makes me cry like crazy. the lyrics + Katie's voice+ emotion = PERFECTION Thank you so much

[@HanhNguyen-vf2qt]

Can you translate this song, please? I can't understand the song without knowing the lyrics :((((((((

[@Lareence]

The lyrics were really beautiful, probably the reason why they sort of overlooked the pitch in the beginning, but the crescendo in the mid-end of the song... I usually hate when singers just sing a pitch to show off, but that was so delicate and tenderly crafted... and just resonated with the piece so well... Wow.

[@picturingREALITY]

I like her because like Lee Hi, her singing takes you outside of the competition. it's rough around the edges in all the right ways. I felt like I was watching an artists on stage, instead of some cookie-cutter product of the kpop training system. Others perform, Katy emotes.

[@picturingREALITY]

She just sat on a chair, opened her mouth, and made 4 people cry. No big deal.

[@sugarmagn0lia93]

Make that 5 *points at self*.

[@kyhe1087]

LMAOOO

[@kimyongdal]

이번 Kpop 시즌4에서 최고의 감동의 무대를 1개만 뽑으라면, 저는 이노래입니다. 여러번 들어도 또 눈물이 나는 노래입니다. 이곳은 LA입니다. 젊은시절 서울생활과 이곳 미국에서의 이민자로서의 삶이 오버랩되고,한국의 부모님에 대한 그리움 그리고 우리 가족들..그리고 참 빠르게 흐르는 세월을 돌아봅니다. 음악의 전문적인 것은 잘 모름니다만, 가장 적절하고 필요한 감정의 흐름으로 노래했다고 생각합니다.

[@theorutledge7567]

What you are capable of feeling is what separates the good vocalists from the great vocalists IMO - and Katie is really feeling it in this performance - the facial expressions , the tone of her voice are telling you that she can relate to this song because she lived this/this is her life! This is unguarded , raw emotion by the most soulful voice that ever set foot on a KPOP stage. This isn't about how loud can I sing or how high can I sing or how can I look really cute so the judges will vote for me. She strips off all the performance gimmicks and exposes herself emotionally and doing so we get to see the real Katie and what 's in her heart and because she is willing to do this(has the courage to do this) she touches our hearts and that's what makes this such a powerful performance. I was at work yesterday and I was thinking about this performance and I looked down and there was a teardrop on my paperwork and I started to think about my father and how he busted his ass so I could have a better life and I had to excuse myself and leave the room.

[@jdamedia123]

katie is the genuine singer in this season. She should win!

[@clairebear9479]

jdamedia jnet SHE WON!!

[@carofume]

The song itself is so touching and makes us realize we need to keep our feet on the ground and be thankful for everything we have and we don't. When Zion T released this song, took me 2 seconds to start crying, and this performance was so unique and genuine, you can feel she's really telling a story, her story, she's not trying to force emotions but letting those emotions sing the song. Katie, you did it, girl! you did it!

[@k_anti]

i remember when this episode came out and i was so pissed after the performance they criticised her voice and her incapability of keeping a steady pitch in the beginning. She was even facing risk of being sent home. In my opinion, Katie Kim absolutely exceeded in this performance, it moved the whole audience it moved people at home and it moves me still. A perfect performance would mean that yes she sang start to finish in perfect pitch, but a great performance provokes emotions and leaves an impression.

[@hk-vk9kt]

이게 벌써 10년....

[@Khrenisbaymot1]

Katie rewrote the lyrics of her own. She felt the Yanghwa bridge in the original song is related to George Washington bridge between NJ and NYC, which her father had to cross every day to do his (hard, manual) work when he first immigrated to the States. I could not help but crying at the climax singing "Mom, don't get sick, let's be happy" T_T

[@tabianmarifate2347]

I'm glad she got in to top ten. I hope she wins and get in to YG. YG loves her anyway even if she doesn't win

[@Jin-qk9vy]

But, I think that YG (and the other judges) favor Lily M and Park Yoon-ha from the others. Still, I hope that Katy wins too! She's got the same vibe as Hi.

[@Khrenisbaymot1]

Anubya I think YG likes Katie as much as Lily M. He said, "when I first saw Katie, right away I knew she is meant to be with YG." I hope Lily M and Katie will both contract with YG after this season whatever their rank will be.

[@TheMekkiii]

Khrenisbaymot1 I think YG might not sign Katie after all, because her vocal color is very similair to Hayi's, though I do hope Katie will really debut succesfully she deserves it and is a very great artist.

[@Khrenisbaymot1]

sassyjune YG is very greedy in collecting talents. It's not likely that he will hesitate to recruit Katie just because Hayi's voice color already has similar R&B soul. (plus Katie's jazzier while Hayi's more k-popish) Actually YG wants someone to compete against Hayi within the company so that she can work hard with more tension, and that is the reason why YG puts Soohyun aside Hayi to make them compete.(YG said so) YG is that kind of person. If Katie comes to YG, I'm sure both will try their best to develop each of their own differences and strengths. There is also a possibility that YG will make a unit with Hayi, Katie, and Hannah Jang for an authentic female vocal group after Big Mama. By freedoing doing both group and solo activities, Katie and Hayi will both have wider range of activities and bigger fan base, which I hope will help their songs known better globally.

[@jim258]

Lyrics of the song I used to be left home alone every day. My dad was a laborer. When I asked him where he was, He always said, “George Washington Bridge”. I saw his weary back when he was leaving home early in the morning, rubbing his eyes, putting on old leather boots messed up with mud. I also saw his hands wear out as his boots. I remember,… Mom, Dad, Brother; I am the youngest. I remember the so many days; I remember; I remember; oh oh oh … I sang songs only at a corner of a small room. I am singing on TV now. Mom, Dad, and even my puppy are looking at me now. I get a call from Mom; she asks me how I am doing. As she asks me where I am, I say, “George Washington Bridge”. Mom, let us be happy without being sick, please without being sick. Let us be happy, let us be happy without being sick, oh oh oh …. ohhhhh …. Let us be happy without being sick, without being sick, yeh… I felt nothing on crossing the bridge when I was young.

[@essentialoyo]

Jim Dong do you happen to know the meaning behind the story of the song?

[@jim258]

She said, “I immigrated to US when I was young. My dad was an interior lighting installer. He had to cross GW Bridge to commute from NJ to NY every early morning. He said he was tired of crossing the bridge. Life was hard for my family then.”

[@minyeon3531]

Jim Dong did she really say "George Washington Bridge", not "Yanghwa daegyo"? sorry, i'm just really confused >,,

[@jim258]

Min Yeon She meant GW Bridge in context though she did not say that. Not the form but the meaning of the words was considered in the translation.

[@user-pe7qk5xc3m]

i cross the gwb with my family every two weeks (not for work) but its really weird to think of how many people stood there are thought those thoughts

[@twentysevenand]

She had the studio crying. Dang! The best contestants that go beyond the title singer and crosses into being an artist are the ones that give the audience something to feel. I think that's why the judges always stress putting emotions into the performance. Otherwise, the song has no meaning.

[@conkzk]

Many years from now, this is the performance I will remember from this season.

[@kjun78]

당췌 이 음악은 뭐지? 모두 울려버리네...ㅜ.ㅜ

[@giuliat1443]

I'm so happy she got to top 10. She's my favourite, along with Lee Jin Ah.

[@juice___box]

"내가 티비 나오네, 노랠하네, 방구석에서만 했었는데"에 눈물이 뚝뚝 크으으 언니 진짜... 진짜..ㅠ 언니 짱 ㅠㅜ

[@kyhe1087]

Damn it’s alrdy been 4 years since I’ve seen this... time goes by so fast

[@tiffanylee3663]

Makes me cry every time I watch this... Ugh soooo good... Cheering her on from New York!

[@bajujayable]

every time i watch this i still end up crying.. katie is such a wonderful soul

[@skiiiiiim]

As an immigrant from Korea, and also the maknae in the family, this song hit me so hard. Thank you, so much, for putting into words what I couldn't say to my parents. I know it's a struggle. I know it's hard. It'll get better. Thank you so so so much.

[@joycekim8918]

OMG never cried so much hearing someone sing.. Go katie!

[@MsJgkim]

I cant stop replaying this, i cry every time.

[@clairebear9479]

Who on earth disliked this!?! this is amazing!! made me cry

[@acemoi1812]

Listening this in 2022, still the best version.

[@jk6943]

Katie and Jijohn are my favorites in season 4 and I'm so glad that both got into top 10❤❤ this was amazing by the way. Zion.t(one of my favorite artists) + Katie= life. I cried so hard omg katie ily please continue doing music no matter what❤

she's so sweet and lovely

[@tobi_._]

still the best cover of yanghwa bridge by zion t

[@angelaachoii]

우리집에 매일 나홀로 있었지 아버지는 빛을 다네 어디냐고 여쭤보면 항상 양화대교 아침이면 진흙 뭍은 낡은 가죽 신발 같은 손발 쓸쓸히 비비며 나서시던 아버지의 뒷모습을 바라보던 나 기억하네 엄마 아빠 또 오빠 난 막둥이 끝나는 날 기억하네 기억하네 기억하네 내가 티비나오네 노래하네 방구석에서만 했었는데 우리 엄마아빠도 강아지도 나를 바라보네 전화가 오네 뚜루루 딸내미 잘지내니 어디냐고 물어보는 말에 양화대교 엄마 행복하자 아프지 말고 좀 아프지 말고 행복하자 행복하자 아프지 말고 그 때는 나 어릴때는 아무것도 몰랐네 그 다리 위를 건너는 기분을.

[@mrjcdc241]

Oh my goodness I would not want to be a judge this season. There's sooo many I really like. I'd never make a good judge. I'd just say, "What the heck, you all win!" Tough decision.

[@XloveXXforever]

havent felt this way after listening to a song like this for so long and i realize thats when we pour our hearts out

[@lisap.6379]

wow I cried.. her emotional level is amazing. props to her :)

[@jeniffervalverdedelacruz5706]

She is my favorite singer!

[@junhyuklee2225]

잘부르진 않앗지만 가슴을 울린다.. Need translation to understand and cry... miss my family... :)

[@alexandratran4875]

Listening to her song for the first min I almost want to cry. Her voice is so beautiful and unique and I feel that because she's never been trained she seems to carry out emotions in her song better than others it's almost as if its flowing.

[@hk1288]

As soon as JYP saw her first round, he confidently said to her that she's one of the ones with possibility of winning this season. As soon as YG saw her he thought "she's YG" and when YG heard Miss Korea sing he said "he goes crazy whenever Katie sings and that his muscles all tense up". These are all exact quotes from YG and JYP. If you think she shouldn't have been in Top 10 you're just simply being a hater.

[@gnay3118]

Hak Kim Just because she did well in one round doesn't mean she gets a pass for putting up crap performances in rounds after; same applies for all contestants. How do exact quotes from YG and JYP have any merit when they can just decide to make their "predictions" come true regardless of how well a contestant does.

[@hk1288]

GNAY 31 That was not a poor performance. YG specifically said the judges all know her superior technical skills so he wanted her to sing a song that was touchy and emotional. She was able to deliver emotions and made multiple people cry. Yoo He Yul said that was his favorite performance by Katie so far and he wants to go to Katie's concert and just listen to her and cry. She had to go to 2nd place rematch because the judges all had different 1st place in mind. But in no way was that a poor performance according to the comments made by the judge.

[@MaryonChantel]

She smiled at the end but you can tell she was trying her best not to cry :-(

[@akina24]

ohmygod i love her. there's so much soul to her voice and it's not like it's perfect but it is in her way

[@lawwook]

Felt every part of her song.. So well sung..

[@Grace-fe5mb]

She got me crying like crazy..

[@emakwon3294]

OH my gosh! she sang it so beautifully.

[@paulcindy817]

omg. the feels... it's hard to not cry after this. i mean, the words are so basic... and yet so heart felt.

[@catz1243]

I didn't understand a word of what she was singing but her voice carried so much emotions that it made me cry. When I read the translation, I cried even harder QAQ Fighting Katie! You're amazing!

[@pantera89520]

Wooooow she amazing!!!!!

[@paulineanery]

[@meriem-oi1nh]

[@hisosonly1]

[@lylyhuynh5748]

tôi không biết tiếng Hàn Quốc nhưng bài mà cô ấy hát làm tôi rơi nước mắt . Cô ấy có chất giọng truyền cảm đã lôi cuốn tôi ngay từ vòng đầu tiên và tôi mong chờ cô ấy ở phần tiếp theo ..fighting

[@hayjinnylee]

[@sheng21]

zion T contact this girl make a song for her !!!

[@chenglinke6564]

Amazing!

[@Koko1234]

I think her first half was not as great as her 2nd half. She was able to build it throughout the music which is impressive. Good performance.

[@amarazen]

Made ppl cry but almost didn't make it? That's stupid. They said it's all about moving ppl if yes then she should be #1

[@kimberlygriffin9718]

[@joshlee78]

[@6231545]

[@temp0rary89]

Still don't understand why YG and JYP didn't like this perf... it was so perfect ♥

[@charlenehu7217]

Although she has those imperfections, although I didn't get the whole meaning of the song, I still touched by her voice, she really put the emotion in, it's great.

[@remij9592]

Cried within the first 10 seconds. Geezus

[@huythuybhm]

i dont know why i'm about to cry though i don't get the lyrics clearly

[@Eeeeeeeeerie]

YG should have her sing songs like this T_T

[@beatriz894]

Ooh this song! Zion T Yanghwa BRDG isn't?? I listened Jungkook (bts) covering to this "I'm at work" ~ Check it guys!

[@seanjohn4896]

What’s her name

[@fannymecano]

I am crying too and I don´t know what exactly is the meaning of the song

[@pinky020194]

I was always alone at home My dad was a taxi driver Whenever I asked him where he was He’d answer, the Yang Hwa Bridge Every morning, he’d leave me candy and ramen My dad would end his shifts at dawn I remember the young me, always waiting for his pocket Mom, dad, my two older sisters I was the baby of the family, the cutie I remember those days I remember Let’s be happy Let’s be happy Don’t be sick, don’t be sick Let’s be happy, let’s be happy Don’t be sick I’m making money, I’m making all the money I used to ask my mom for ten cents My mom and dad, even my dog They all look to me now I’m getting a call, it’s my mom Ring ring, “Hi son, how are you?” She asks me where I am I’m at Yang Hwa Bridge Mom, let’s be happy Don’t be sick, don’t be sick Let’s be happy, let’s be happy Don’t be sick Back then, when I was young I didn’t know anything The feeling of walking across that bridge Whenever I asked him where he was My dad would always be at Yang Hwa Bridge, Yang Hwa Bridge I’m standing there right now Let’s be happy Let’s be happy Don’t be sick, don’t be sick Let’s be happy, let’s be happy Don’t be sick

[@yoyomama7060]

can you have lyrics please tell me

[@PurpleHaze4me]

she almost didn't make it during the 2nd placers battle when she performed "because of you". she toned it down too much and her rearrangement made her voice seem like it's all over the place.

[@alexlo4866]

its zico.t song?

[@jackyale3073]

what is the name of this song?

[@김재은-i7o]

Jacky Ale 양화대교 yanghwa bridge

[@paullim1933]

What happened to her?

[@fipefoai6626]

Does anyone know a brief translation about what this song is about, If so plz tell me I wanna know why everyone was crying (I get that part of it was because she has a beautiful voice)

[@17JhEsie]

The title of the song is Yanghwa Bridge by Zion. T and I think the meaning of this song is when a father sacrifice himself to go to work to able to support his family especially his wife who is sick and his child wonder where his father go all the time and thinking his always left them until he realize that his father work all the time roaming around the city as taxi driver especially in yanghwa bridge to be able to help his family. Overall, we need to appreciate all the sacrifices that our parents done to us. I hope it helps. :D

[@fipefoai6626]

Thanks for the briefing about the song it helps alot now I fully understand how katies beautiful voice plus the lyrics can create such a emotional response from everyone 

[@kyubum015]

search zion.t. song choose the one in the 1thek channel theres a translation of the song.

[@lylyhuynh5748]

mee too

[@rubiikpop]

if I am not mistaken, Katie changed some lyrics here and there - from her own perspective - but the meaning is still similar to the original song

[@RichiaMLT]

did she get 2nd place? if so who beat her? o.o

[@picturingREALITY]

Everyone in that round tied for second place. So, they were all asked to sing again. Katie was the only one from that battle to, in the end, make it to the Top 10.

[@Bkang503]
