Yeah , I know nothing about singing but this is also one of my favourite versions of Nella Fantasia :) !!!! Love , love , love it !!!!

[@user-db1cu4ic2f]

포레스텔라! 🤔

[@clasico51]

she's not a classical singer. she's a rock vocalist in Korea. maybe you'll shocked to hear her performance 'Lonely Night' in 'King of Masked Singers' (Korean original program) you'll find out the other side of her as a rock vocalist.

[@yunipachai8172]

You were on point. Park Ki Young is not classically trained professionally. She's actually rock singer and some pop.

[@socksumi]

She has a luxurious voice with no rough edges. Like satin sheets. It's so relaxing to listen to.

[@kschoi7337]

한국이 낳은 국보급 가수이다. 대한민국의 품격을 드높인 국민가수 박기영님 앞으로 영광이 함께 하길 바란다.

[@BlueSky0365]

이분은 청각이 뛰어난거 같아요. 그리고 음악을 들을때에도 진지하게 듣고.. 그래서 솔직한 리액션이 나오는거 같네요.

[@user-pr1ly6sk3r]

오페라싱어 십니다 그래서 음악적분석력이 뛰어난것같아요ㅎㅎ 저는 이분이 하신 메탈곡들의 리액션 영상들로 구독자가 되었는데 정말 모든 음악들을 존중하시고 리액션이 좋으심ㅎㅎ

[@SilverSeaOT7]

Wow. Never heard of her but within a few seconds I got chills and tears in my eyes. Her voice and the setting is so ethereal.

[@user-rc2iu7qk1l]

박기영 자랑스러워요 최고의가수 👍

[@user-wb7rx3ge8c]

영어가 약해서 이 여자가 뭐라는지 하나도 모르겠고 내가 기영님의 이 영상을 처음 보고 느낀 것은 하늘나라 천사가 지상에 내려와 인간들을 위해 노래를 하나 부른다면 딱 이랬을 것 같다는 거였다. 지금도 어쩌면 기영님은 천사일지도 모른다는 생각을 하고 산다.

[@MrBratbody]

Yes she is a rocker and a friend of So Hyang. Both are amazing.

[@xmakoheart]

Thank you so much for the Park Ki Young reaction! She's actually more well known for singing pop or rock style and this was her first time singing a song in a mostly classical-style since she started taking classical voice lessons. Years back she was on a Pop Goes Opera style show and that sparked an interest in learning classical singing, so it became her dream to be able to perform this song live! If you want to see more of her in her usual style, I highly recommend either her performances of Yeonan Pier or Spring Rain! Yeonan Pier has an almost jazzy lounge vibe, and Spring Rain is definitely more of a rock style. I think you'd really like those!

[@yanki198]

SPRING RAIN SPRING RAIN SPRING RAIN YESSS

[@user-ey9ui8bc5k]

wow you know well about her. imprssive (from korea)

[@reviewdol]

난 박기영님이 이렇게 세계적으로 인정받을 날이 올거라고 믿었다. 정말정말 잘 하는 가수거든... 오페라스타 이후로 거의 득음에 가까운 실력 향상을 한 대단한 가수. 30대 중반에 가수는 보통 기량이 떨어지기 시작하는데, 오히려 업그레이된 모습을 보고... 노력하는 천재구나 싶었음.

[@bckingdollar]

30대에 기량이 떨어진 가수 누구 있음? 이 냥반 드립 여기서도 보네. 그 멍청한 30대 드립 좀 그만하고 돌아댕겨 어우 손발이 오그라드네. 40대초중반의 김나박이도 건재한거 모르냥? 50대 권인하, 박정현, 임재범등도 아직 한국탑인데 현실감 좀 갖고 살자. 나훈아도 건재한데.

[@AC-ju5yu]

FYI she is not a trained opera singer. More of a pop rocker. She just wanted to try this!!! She taught at So Hyangs school Music House Acadamy so they have been good friends for a long time. Can you react to Faouiza How it All Works Out stripped. Thanks

[@Panorama-memory]

What's amazing... she's a rocker...

[@user-tv6xm8xi5n]

hhh yes~!!! she's south korea rocker.

[@UlrichKastell]

You should try Park Ki Young's "Yeonan Pier". It's absolutely magical, and it shows off her range and interpretation even better.

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Thanks for this Ulrich Kastell. Great choice!

[@rickjames2043]

No words just emotions. She is the first artist to bring tears too my eye's singing Nella Fantasia. Thank you for reacting to it!!!!

[@bergatrolle]

Wow what a beautiful voice. Ty who ever requested this reaction/analysis.

오 천사의목소리 너무사랑해요 박기영님^^

[@Watchamacallit000]

First time I've heard her. Beautiful

[@KiwayneJacobs]

Park Ki Young and So Hyang are really great friends. You should react to her more. She's a beast, like So Hyang.

[@RossNixon]

My eyes are leaking. What a lovely voice!

[@lea-anne9133]

She makes it look effortless! so beautiful❤

[@richardgamache1]

The face is ALi (Cho Yong Jin) the Queen of Immortal Songs and has appeared on the show dozens of times since it's inception .. she has won the most trophy's of female singers on the show and only suppassed by 1 male singer DongHa she also carried the highest score achieved on the show for 3 years before it was broken this past year .. she is my personal Queen and an amazing talent and Soprano but a much different vibe than So Hyang much more Jazz/R&B and a rich raspy voice though can still hit clear and bright high notes .. if you ever react to her I would start with her English covers of Flying Without Wings or perhaps Dillon's Knocking on Heavens Door from Immortal Songs.. where So Hyang is a Vocal Performer .. ALi is a performance performer and many of her appearance on the show are performance based.

[@kimzay88]

Who has the highest score now?

[@pamrenee6906]

Sadly my friend Richard passed away in 2022. 😕💕

[@hadnfield]

I am really enjoying the wide variety of music you are "reacting" too. What fascinates me about watching YOU is watching your mouth and tongue as you sing along to songs you know without appearing to do so! So cute!!! Thank you so much for all of your time and efforts!!!

[@user-qq9lz3ib6e]

I really enjoyed watching your review. Your expressions and professional explanation were so good.

[@Rosannasfriend]

She is So Hyang's friend.

[@oioxix6816]

Yep! Real best friend. Also She's one of the female "Rockers" in Korea. (I'm Korean!)

[@kirbys1370]

Hi Elizabeth, I am always excited when you introduce a new singer to your channel! I Loved this performance and your reaction and I also Love your Blue/Purple top along w/ your stegosaurus jacket (which I've seen before in your videos). Park Ki Young is another talented and versatile singer who has an angelic voice which is so unique and hauntingly beautiful! I also Loved the background strings and other parts of an orchestra (percussion)! Thank You, Elizabeth, for another wonderful Reaction & Analysis!!! :-)

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Thank you Kirby! It feels good when people appreciate your hard work. I'm very happy you are really like the channel ang the choices I make!

Finally a vocal coach has done Park Ki Young! Like soooo many of them are on the Tube and none have reacted to her! Thanks for giving her some love because she is amazing.

[@RommerskirchenFrank]

That was BEAUTIFUL 💎💎💎💎💎

[@Feilynn]

Yay! Liked this, thank you 🙏 Immortal Songs 2 is a favorite of mine. I’ve found some really interesting and amazing performers through this show. Some that come to mind are Forestella, Ali, Song SoHee, Son SeungYeon and Wheesung. Would definitely recommend almost any performance from IS2

[@media1981]

Your review is VERY constructive which I LOVE!!!!!! Thank you for your reaction!

[@ssemchang969]

Your description and comments are wonderful too. The sound of her voice is irreplaceable and non humankind powerful.

[@user-im5bv4zw1i]

She is a rocker. Singing this kind of music might be exceptional for her

[@tyronekim3506]

Thank you for your analysis. I have Sarah Brightman CD on this song. She is a superb singer but when I heard Park Ki Young a year ago, I was stunned with amazement.

[@rebeccavandam2834]

Ohhhh wonderful!

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Thank you Rebecca!

[@razrv3lc]

Park Ki Young is insane. She’s got a song called Coordination that I like a lot and it gets surprisingly impressive at the end since it starts out super simply lol

[@shuriken4852]

Yes, yes, yes!!! More Park Ki Young please. Everyone reacts to So Hyang, but to me she is in the same league and often overlooked. Her other songs from the same TV show Immortal Songs are stunning, especially Yeonan Pier & Spring Rain.

[@user-pt8eg4oj8p]

Thank you for introducing Park Ki-young, the singer of the country.

[@TheProfarab]

Park Kiyoung started out singing rock music, so the influence is there in part. She recently started singing more classical songs, which she describes as very difficult!

[@dougel4709]

Beautifully done!!!!😲 🥰

[@user-tx3vc9ii9r]

신이 선물한 최고의 악기는 인간의 목소리라 한것은 바로 박기영씨의 목소리가 아닐른지?... 넬라 판타지아를 컬러링 해놓고 지내면서 수없이 듣노라니 천상의 목소리가 바로 박기영씨임을 다시금 깨닫게되는 순간 입니다.

[@muratomar6502]

So beautiful timbre she has...

[@andrewgeng8420]

Her singing took me right back home close to Tibet, where I couldn’t return for two years. It’s Christine nature so vast and Boundaryless just like her voice. A gentle shimmering melody so pure and innocent melted the ice on my heart. in that sweet soft soothing place I found the child I thought I once lost. Then I Knew how to Cry again...Then I knew how to love again......Thank you for all your light for everything came to life again 🙏

[@ninikusumo]

"A more epic feel" yes agree, that's exactly what I felt while I was watching her video before I got here. Thanks for the analysis 🙏

[@mikejhorn]

Loved it thanks 😍

[@elgabenedicta]

Sarah Brightman's version has always been one of my top favorite piece of music of all time. Interesting to see other singers doing and adding different things to this beautiful classic piece. Thanks for introducing new singers through your wonderful channel.

[@wlswkfhkim4852]

Yes finally. Im already exited.

[@kbar5821]

Longtime So Hyang fan who just dicovered PKY and this is the performance that hooked me. Obviously they get compared a lot as they are both sopranos with crystal clear head voices who can mix very high but PKY didn't grow up immersed in 90's diva pop like So Hyang. As a result of that and the fact that she's not as proficient in the language PKY doesn't do nearly as many English language covers which makes her a bit less accessible to those outside Korea. In addition to their similar voices though what ties them together is that they both just radiate a core goodness which is impossible to fake. These aren't performers motivated by fame or money but by a simple desire to comfort and inspire their audience (check out her performance of The Prayer with Kim Hyukgun if you want another example.) Thank you so much for this reaction and I hope you add her to your regular rotation as her other IS2 performances are just as epic.

[@michaelmazzola1621]

[@user-xs1sh5jc4q]

Glad to see you react her performance Nice to listen to and goosebumps.. coz she didn't major in Classic but really better job FYI, she and So Hyang that you reacted before are close friends and in real life they have in common with.. especially teaching students that want to sing a song with their heart and also want to comfort people that need healing through Music This performance was really well done and impressed many people in S.Korea Thank you for your sincere reaction and hope to see you in performances of her and So Hyang, my Eternal Diva 👍💖

[@cheongmyoung]

She is a rock singer. I am deeply impressive at your sensitivity. You felt her.

[@davidetomba6812]

Thanks for your reaction and analysis of this beautiful piece. Yes Pak ki Young is not an opera singer however I enjoyed her interpretation. Only one thing does not fully satisfy me. I am Italian and yet I can only understand a few words of the song's lyrics, this one like others, when it is rendered by foreign singers. In this case, the melody without the words is like a bird with only one wing.

[@badbreathdunghead2683]

she must be an angel that came from the heaven to let the earth men hear the heavenly voice

[@MaitreRed]

Thank you so much for reacting to Park Ki Young ! She's my favorite korean singer and I definitely think she's underrated. I think she was classicaly trained but sang a lot of rock songs. If you want to hear more of her, you might want to react to Song For You, Yeonan Pier, Spring Rain or The Northern Man, The Southern Woman ! I would also suggest to react to Son Seung Yeon - Lost Love ! She's one of the greatest vocalists of this generation and I'm sure you would love her !

[@Lilygirl283]

I love Amira singing this, she is only 14 at the time, and its beautiful...

[@rockape1954]

Very nice ... you always get the good stuff :)

O Kay, for 20 years she has been a Contemporary POP and some Rock singer, she is 43 today but here she is 39 and her first foray into Classical music!! She and the song are just beautiful!! Enjoy

[@kbar5821]

Back a week later and shocked how few views this reaction has netted considering that both PKY's performance and this reaction are just about as close to perfection as you can get.

[@Hiigara85]

I would really recommend that you see all of "the black Symphony" from Within Temptation. The song where you listen to Sharon and Anneke is from that concert. Its just pure awesomeness!!

[@weslove6018]

Two items of note first her and So Hyang are special friends and second she is a Contemporary POP and some Rock but after 20 years wanted to try Classical, this is her first attempt!!!

[@isimplin]

I didn't cry when I heard the original song of Nella Fantasia, but I cried when I heard Park Ki-young's song, and I felt something healing, I'm Korean and I didn't understand your English well, but it's so fun to see you interpret it in detail and fun ~:D

[@vmsilverknight4661]

Amazing ... My first time hearing her voice ... You might be interested in hearing Chantelle Marie King - Nella Fantasia, she too was an unknown to me with an incredible voice control

[@isimplin]

Park Ki Young is rock music singer,,,I cried when I heard this song.

[@donkim2010]

Your analysis is very precise and clear. Park Kiyoung is a great singer in Korea. Thanks for your reaction!

[@dirlima23]

Can't wait for the reaction!! I still prefer "Song for You" instead of Nella Fantasia.... if you like her, please react to Song for You

[@sunkim6461]

Charismatic Voice accentuates Park, Ki Young's Nella Fantasia fantastically.

[@user-td1gx6wl9d]

The lady with stunned face with her jaw dropped when you paused is also a very renowned singer in Korea. Her name is 'Ali'. I suggest you review her performances also. You won't regret.

[@Rosannasfriend]

Please, react to Park Ki Young singing "Spring Rain". That will blow your mind, she lets LOOSE at the end, sings with SOUL , and sings with many vocal colours than she does on this song.

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

I'm not very familiar with this singer, but that was stunning! Can't wait to hear more from her! Please react to Home Free's Auld Lang Syne and Tim Foust's Can't Help Falling in Love With You. I think you'll love both!

[@2hyun451]

another class.

[@PittDaddy]

Sorry I couldn't make the live premiere. What a beautiful rendition of this song. I am a big fan of Sarah's and she knocks it out of the park. When you get a chance, please react to Sarah's song, Sogni. It's unbelievable.

[@emmanuelgg8957]

It’s on the music of the film "The Mission", signed by Ennio Morricone . One of the most beautiful music ever composed ! The film is sad. I always see in my mind the tragic end ... And remember this beautiful music!

[@CosmosAndWinter]

Oh my god you should listen to Park Ki Young's Yeonan Pier! She's so iconic

[@Immortall1408]

Hello Elizabeth. A cover of this song was also sung by Marcela Bovio and Lauri Macri from MaYaN, which is sort of a sister band to Epica, which you have already heard, but it was not professionally recorded, unfortunately: Marcela Bovio & Laura Macrì - Nella Fantasia (live @ Cantine Theater, Budel-Dorplein 30.06.2019) 2/3 or this - Marcela Bovio & Laura Macrì - Flower Duet (live @ Cantine Theater, Budel-Dorplein 30.06.2019) 1/3

[@duncanreid9351]

It'd be interesting to see you react to one of your own performances - to tell us how you prepared for it and what you learned from doing that 😁🤗

[@williamking2137]

Not many people know that the original tune was composed by Enio Morricone & originally called Gabriel's Oboe. It was used in the movie, The Mission.

[@JJ_Curtis]

Your review is also goegeous with her performance.

[@ignatiuschua5268]

In Immortal Song, the performers usually re-interpreted the original songs. The lady that you mentioned is Ali. She is also one of the best singers in Korea other than Sohyang and Park Ki Young. Ali just came up with a Christian album where she collaborated with Sohyang. By the way, Park Ki Young and Sohyang are BFF. I believe they met each other while they were both performing as Maria in Korean Sound of Music Broadway. The orchestra behind has to play for 8 re-interpreted songs by 8 different performers each week. Isn't Park Ki Young a beauty?

[@vincents3052]

박기영's gift to the world.

[@davidkoepke9841]

Park Ki Young is terrific. She and Sohyang became best friends when they shared the role of Maria in "Sound of Music" some years back. They both started out as rockers - secular and Christian. They are voice faculty at the same arts university. The face you noted is Ali who also is a terrific singer and even better performer. Sohyang had the same expression on her face when she watched Ali singing Binari.
