Great video, this was during the pandemic her version give more a hopeful feeling to the people.

[@edtougas807]

Haven’t much of her original music but her cover of “Bridge over troubled water” and Whitney’s “I have nothing” are both epic! Her vocal range is next level and she does her own arrangements. Her Korean song “ Fate” is amazing as well

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 45years 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... This performance is just tip of iceberg.. . Thanks for your reaction of Queen Sohyang ♥

Guy's welcome to the world of Sohyang. Her stage performances are spectacular. Now that you know her, you must see them. This is a group that traveled around Korea during the Pandemic to lift people's spirits. Notice that she is sitting on a wharf in the wind and also that she SANG the Saxophone solo? She actually paid tribute to Dolly Parton's rendition which is the original. This is just a small sample of this great lady's talent. Cheers.

[@Sfendo63]

She is the epitomy of an artist, noble, passionate, with bold but brilliant choices. Her voice lost a bit after around 9 cases of pnemonia but thankfuly came back to us with more passion and dexterity. As she mentioned in one of her interviews ""when previously I was feeling like a race car on the road, now I feel more like a bus, I run slower but can carry more people"". For me personaly her brightest moment is "Bridge over the troubled water".👍👍👏👏👏

[@beyondviolet]

PLEASE do more of Sohyang! She is legit one of my favorite singers on the planet right now, absolutely phenomenal. The amount of vocal coaches I’ve seen watch her videos and just absolutely lose it is hilarious. She did the best version of “I Have Nothing” (yes, better than Whitney Houston) if that gives you any idea how amazing she can get, and it’s only one example. Literally the only reason she’s not more famous is because she doesn’t want to be, she’s never actually signed a contract with any studio despite being reached out to many times.

[@joandsarah77]

Welcome to Sohang's world. It's so nice to see you taking the time to talk about who Sohyang is before getting into the reaction, very few people do that.

I love the way you got to know her first. I first heard her 7 years ago the first song I heard her sing was Arirang Alone been hooked ever since .THANK YOU for your reaction

[@tom7471]

Lee Hi is the singer in red. She is one of the most famous singers in South Korea, as are all those present. They are younger than So Hyang and all have said they are in awe of her and to be in the same space and hearing her voice is transcendent. So Hyang is certainly one of the most skilled vocalists on earth. She can sing any genre. I just know you will enjoy her. She has some of the best live performances I have ever heard. I am an American and to say she is the 'Korean Mariah Carey' is far too limiting. She is far more flexible and versatile to me with more power and nuance, and I like Mariah and I love Whitney Houston who would have loved So Hyang. This lady can sit at the same table as any of the greats. BTW, she is now second only to Dimash in reaction videos on KZbin, which is how many, many of us even found out about her. She wishes not to pursue fame but to sing with love. I really liked the way you two broke it down so thoughtfully. I will subscribe to you. 'I Have Nothing' from the DMC Festival with her in a dark blue dress, or 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' from KBS K-Pop TV are completely a different level, though this shows how incredible her voice is sitting outside in the wind on a dock. Thanks again for your reactions.

The young man in the background is an accomplished singer and musical genius. His name is Henry Lau and I recommend his live performance of Faded on two pianos at once.

[@janerogers8201]

She won on a Michael Bolton’s special on a Korean show called Immortal Songs 2 so she was able to sing with him during his concerts. You can find it on KZbin. The show/contest is about taking well known or not so famous singers (including KPOP idols) and having them remix popular singers/bands/producers/lyricists throughout Korean history (with some int’l singers like Michael Bolton). They also did a PDogg/BTS special.

She sang this song just softly sitting on the chair, bc this was filmed in pandemic to comfort people. Her voice range is amazig. Let's check her "You raise me up" and "Bridge over the troubled water" from the Korean TV show, "Immortal songs". And if you are interested in male vocal group, then go to Forestella. Speechless again. They coverd "Bohemian Rhapsody" and you will meet the best-ever version you've never heard before : ) Thank you for reaching Sohyang and Forestella in advance.

When Sohyang performed for a crowd, she tends to mellow down. If it is a stage performance such as I Am A Singer 2, Immortal Song 2 and King Of Mask Singers, you will get chills and goosebumps guaranteed, esp IMS 2 and KOMS. Sohyang is well known for her ability to belt. For me, her head voice simply takes the cake.

Sohyang has a lot of performances that you can react to. If you want something that is original to her she recently released a duet with Petra called "The Star" and before that "Freedom" which is a more jazzy Christian song. The year before that she released "Stay" and there is video for that or I really like her singing it at Begin Again Korea 2021.

[@t.lucalake8963]

Nice reaction guys. THANK YOU!!, for really focusing your attention on the entire performance, without any unnecessary pauses and interruptions. In my opinion, So Hyang's performances are best viewed with the least amount of pausing. Your style of reacting is greatly appreciated. The PHENOMENAL So Hyang actually SANG the saxophone part. As impressive as this performance was, trust and believe, it showcases a very small sample of the flexibility in her voice. So Hyang's range is RIDICULOUS and off the charts. Her breath control is INSANE and unmatched. Often times, So Hyang's song covers, make the original sound like a demo tape. She has the gift of updating and elevating these songs. New subscriber

[@소여-p3n]

Your "Sohyang" pronunciation is good and your voice is very good, too.

[@andrzejfronc2650]

Hi, thank you for your reaction. Sohyang's performance is absolutely unique and touching. Very moving. She did a kind of drama, using also silence, which is a very powerful tool. What is amazing she made me completely forget the rough industrial surrounding. Her voice made it all dissapear - apart of the thankful audience. Listen to her version of "Bridge over troubled water". I'm afraid you would have to strenghten your famous seat belts...

Kim, So-Hyang (김소향) is a South Korean singer. Her stage name is Sohyang (소향). She's up there with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Celine Dion, according to David Foster, who worked with all of them, plus other big names in the music industry, such as Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, and Michael Jackson. In fact, many vocal coaches and critics call her the Queen, and Dimash the King. Here are several links to excellent performances by Sohyang. Many are from competitions where she pulls out all the stops and goes into vocal beast mode. The last 5 are more restrained. You can alternate between the styles, just to experience the contrasts and see her range of abilities. All are live, except for a music video of "Never Enough" (since we can never get enough of Sohyang). DMC Festival: kzbin.info/www/bejne/imW4qnyDoMmsaq8 "I Have Nothing" [Whitney Houston] kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXfXg4iJhd2Wl9U (camera only on Sohyang) kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGiUlnyNh9J4qrs "Dream" [Sohyang] {Korean} Immortal Songs 2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWfMeZtqrqeredE "Bridge Over Troubled Water" [Simon & Garfunkel] kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHfcn5eBbruCec0 "Arirang Alone" [traditional Korean folksong, lyrics adapted for reunification of North & South Koreas] {Korean} kzbin.info/www/bejne/fafWmHaiociBhqc "Lean On Me" [Bill Withers, Jr.; Michael Bolton guest] kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpbCfWylm82Iqpo "You Raise Me Up" [Secret Garden; Shane Filan (Westlife) guest] kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmbIaICGp8pqn7s "Everyone" {Korean, English} I Am A Singer 2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6jKd2Z9rtGoY5I "O Holy Night" Begin Again Korea: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooTdk2mXZbWeh7c "Flashlight" with Lee Suhyun [Jessie J] kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZrZp6OBaLqAotk "Misty" [Ella Fitzgerald] kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoCbZWh7prpmm6c "I Will Always Love You" [Dolly Parton] kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWa6onp_hc-kqsU "Never Enough" [Loren Allred] Open Concert: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIvcepelh7d-fNE "The Power of Love" [Jennifer Rush] BTW, Whitney's former manager saw the DMC Festival video of Sohyang singing "I Have Nothing", and contacted Oprah Winfrey, who in turn, contacted David Foster. They were all amazed. He invited her to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. Foster co-wrote that song. He arranged and produced it for Whitney for her album, and her performance in "The Bodyguard". Foster has won 16 Grammy Awards, including 3 for Producer of the Year, and has been nominated a total of 47 times.
