[Korea's Got Talent] Sung-bong Choi (Nella Fantasia)

[@seoyoonyunikim7861]

Im Korean and he went through more than living alone for 10 years. He actually found his mother and went to her but his mother rejected him because she already had a rich husband and a family... he also thought of committing suicide but a music teacher he met told him to sing and be famous to show his mother to show he wasnt just a mistake in the world. As a Korean he is my forever role model. I absolutely respect you sung bong choi👍👍👍

[@lindalee7322]

I love Sung-Bong Choi also. God bless you too.

[@iinnbbooxx]

He sang beautifully!

[@kiritostarfilling7683]

I love Korean but in not speak Korean :(

[@doogiehowser78]

thank you for that information , the boy is humble and had a very hard life but to me he is the greatest because of it

[@yeonlee5]

Just got recommended this and found out he passed away. What a performance (probably the best and most iconic in Korea's got talent to this day). 2024 and still watching

[@Matt-NYC]

He committed suicide... over a fake cancer ordeal scandal... RIP

[@yeonlee5]

@@Matt-NYC you're reserved to your opinion. yes, everyone knows it was faked. But I think you're missing the point. Before this, he lived such a hard and difficult past, and that past life and sudden fame is what led him to do what he did (doesn't excuse it, but you can see why he did what he did). Money was so scarce for him and he wanted to use that fame because he knew fame didn't last that long, so to keep being relevant, he did what he did.

[@CarolWeber-e9n]

Sung bong Choi is singing with a heavenly choir. He endured a lifetime worth of suffering to finally be freed. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@discopernicus]

​​@@Matt-NYCit just sad.. He live hard life and it make him bend his principle, start lying to people for money then he broke down and end up committing suicide. Sometimes for some people life can punch you too hard and it make them give up.

[@andrewyang4319]

I had watched this young man sang couple times now. Every time I watch him sang I cry. I was an orphan too, my father passed away when I was 6 or 7 years old. My mother got married and let us children alone. My siblings and I are struggle to survive during many times of trials. When we came to America in 1977 after the Vietnam War, we cannot speak and write English at all. We live a life in the lost world in America. Back in my teenager year with very limited English and have no money at all and little food to eat. The only lunch and breakfast I ate is at school in the morning and lunch only. Came home with empty stomach over night and wait till the next day back to school. People do not understand how orphans kids suffer before they become one. Thanks God I survived. Every time I watch this young man sang it always remind me to stand strong and be yourself, love yourself and think positive and thrive for the success you dream to achieve in life. People will push you down, but God will always raise you up no matter what people think of you. Dream big and never ever give up! God is good and awesome!

[@msblank2294]

Actually, there are lots of homeless people in Korea, even now. I fyou travel there and go to the subways, there are lots of people sleeping there.

[@YoonOhAru]

I'm sure you will have more chance to see homeless people in subway station in New York than subway station in Seoul. The reason this story is so impressing Korean people is that above story is very rare case in Korea. There are lots of welfare organizations and also they are supported from government and donations.

[@vangstr]

His story is one to break many hearts. No matter how many times I come back to view this video, it's always emotional and moving. When I feel left out or life seems unfair, in my sadness I'm still far better than the young Sung-Bong had ever gone through and experienced. God bless him.

This is amazing. He endured a childhood that would have turned many people bitter, angry, and hateful. He turned to be a humble person, I believe. I hope he achieves his dream and more. He is a role model that young people can look up to and strive to emulate.

How can he inspire young people? He is young too. At 18 years old or 22 years old you don't aspire anyone you should have people who inspire you.

[@theroadrunnerjarhead4109]

@@nanaprincess2537 I have seen 18 to early 20 year old men leading other young men in battle. There are young men who have been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for their bravery and sacrifice and selflessness in battle. It’s not the age of a person that determines maturity. Character, devotion to one’s creed, resilience, and upbringing are more important than a person’s age. What inspires you and who inspires you? This young man came from nothing. He was homeless. He maintained his dignity and humility. He persevered. That is enough to inspire me. Young people should ASPIRE to be like him.

[@christopherbarnett5003]

@@nanaprincess2537 He can inspire people by his desire not to have the life that he was caught up in and do all his best to get out of it. Young people can inspire others too by their success and motivation. We can be further inspired by Sung-bong Choi because he is so humble.

[@caramelmacchiato8399]

To this day, this young man’s song moves me to tears. I looked up the English translation of the song. It’s the perfect lyrical foundation for supporting his life. Although in my opinion, the song is way too forgiving on the society that has caused him the grief. However, his voice is otherworldly and so moving. What a beautiful soul this man is

I saw this video about 9 or 10 years ago! My heart hurt for his story, but I think all that life experience and pain went to his singing which made him unforgettable and amazing.
