4. I Have Nothing
5. Bridge Over Troubled Water
plz everyone eng sub
And "Bridge over troubled water" ruclips.net/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/видео.html By far the best version I ever heard.
@@mariogansbeke right! I forgot about this.
Monalisa ?
Dear love? In the flower garden? The best head voice in history
She actually is the singing voice of Disney's Moana in her korean version.
Arirang is like a folk song or an unofficial anthem of Korea.
Arirang is the unofficial national anthem of pre-partition Korea. Sohyang tuned it into a plea to God for the Korean people to be reunified/reunited.
Sohyang is a Master Arranger and also a Novelist.
Arirang alone is in the hearts of many Koreans, it tells of a united country.
She is 42 years old this year. I think this performance was done about 3 years ago. She is a survivor of cervical cancer and because of the operation that she had she cannot have any children. She decided that she was called to use her voice to heal hearts and comfort those who are down-and-out and going through hard times. She is a very serious Christian and also does missionary work. She is also an author and has written I think 3 fiction books. She's also an incredible cartoonist. At 1 time her goal was to be a Disney cartoonist. And she did do the voice for the Korean version of Moana.
She is an incredible individual.
sohyang NO.1 everyone will be able to know her vocal ability after listening (Korean + English mix songs)
NO.2 you Raise Me Up She sang and sang as a university professor. She also has excellent talents in music arrangement.
Her merit is that the meaning is conveyed too well when singing.
Yes this song is the Korean Traditional song. You can enjoy her "bridge over the troubled water' and 'you raise my up' from the same tv show, and then go to "Everyone"(with eng sub) ! Welcome to the world of Sohyang. She is not the 'female Dimash'. She is just Sohyang, the greatest singer. She doesn't just surprise people with not only such a high note but also the ways she touches every listner's hearts : )
Thank you for reacting to So Hyang. To me she's one of the best female vocalists out there, she's a rollercoaster. Would love to see you react to more of her stuff. So Hyang is a South Korean singer known for her controlled, skillful, and developed voice who has been dubbed by the international media as the "Korean Mariah Carey". Sohyang's parents divorced when she was in her third year of high school. Due to this, Sohyang experienced great financial difficulties, and, according to her, was often very sad as a result. At the age of twenty, she was diagnosed with uterine cancer, due to the early detection, she was able to survive the cancer, but was rendered infertile. Because of the many chemo she went through, she's often sick, actually in her "You Raise Me Up" performance she had Pneumonia and was told by her doctor that she shouldn't even talk that day but she still went and sang and have us THAT performance while sick, would love you see you react to that. She has gotten many and many proposes from companys to work fo them and getting paid and be a succesful singer but she never accepted any because she really doesn't have interest in making that kind of money. She's a devout Christian. She first began singing in her local community, with no aspirations of pursuing a career as a professional singer. She has said her only goal is to use her voice to comfort people who are going through difficult times.
Would recommend: "Dream" "Fate" "Bridge Over Troubled Water" "Lean On Me"
Arirang Alone is a traditional Korean Folk song about the strife & sorrow of Korean families that were sadly torn apart with the North & South separation. They sing this song in the Hope of one day being all together again. And as you will find out by her many many followers online that will welcome you to the SoHyang World.. The more you get to know her background from comments, you will find out how humble, beautiful, talented she really is! And yes, she is one of the best artists in interacting with her fellow stage musicians as well her audience.. I love the way she seems to be smiling while singing too. This is all to match her awesome vocals! Please do more reactions of her.... Korean songs get the English lyrics so you can see the words(Everyone. Where are You, etc) English(Lean on Me, Bridge over Troubled Waters, You Raise me up) Her King of Masked Singers contest has some great vocals of her also! Hope to see you again soon!
The Western music industry will not show you Dimash, nor will they show you Floor Jansen or Sohyang. But these are the three best live singers on the planet. More please :)
Sure, but Korea has a lot to offer, listen to Park Ki Young, ALI and Song So Hee, they are vocally devastating, the talent they have is incredible and they are so unknown to the majority
@@yanki198 Korean Soul are amazing.
@@mattphillips538
sure yes, I'm missing add to the list Sonnet Son, another spectacular vocalist
wao, a baby of Dimash and Queen So Hyang, it is sad to think that So Hyang cannot have a child due to his cancer, even so I dream of seeing a duet someday, the legendary duet that many of us dream of seeing.
Now that you have discovered Sohyang, You are on the ride of your life.
Her chemistry with orchestras is always on point
Sohyang is outstanding! One of the best vocalists ever in my opinion! Her technique and musicality are both just insane! You should check out her performances of "Everyone" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" next! She's a very versatile vocalist, but her roots are in gospel, and those two performances incorporate more of that gospel flare.
@Kyle Pomare Dimash, while his melodic vocal range is extremely impressive, he can't even support most of his range. Sohyang can support the entirety of her range, her mid and upper belts are resonant, and most of all, her technique is healthy. That explains the longevity of her singing career.
it's not just your opinion, check the opinion of experts, So Hyang is on Olympus www.criticofmusic.com/p/blog-page.html
Yanky 1071 Oh yeah, countless vocal coaches and fellow musicians have praised Sohyang’s technique, labeling her as one of the best in the world and just as amazing as the vocal greats. Not to mention her major success on multiple Korean talent shows, all of her extremely loved performances, and the countless blown away reactions from RUclipsrs. Love and respect for Sohyang among those who hear her is nearly universal!
I love Sohyang so much. She doesn't really perform a genre that I'm especially a fan of, but then again she doesn't just stick to one genre, which I appreciate greatly. But something about how she conveys the emotions of the story she's singing is so powerful. I mean aside from the fact that she's an astonishly gifted singer from a technical standpoint, because that's just a bonus. Her real gift is communication, and yes, you'll cry, everybody does, Sohyang's a very cathartic experience.
Btw she is a master arranger! Many of the songs she sings have really creative arrangements, and they often have a different feel in the best way.
Welcome to SoHyang. You'll find none better.. You caught the emotion and that's good as this song is extremely meaningful to Koreans.. This song was a tech fest and she is a master of it all..
Wait until you hear her rendition of "You Raise Me Up" or the nearly 7 minute long "Everyone."
Dig a grave beforehand.
Whatever you see next time, it becomes a new experience.
I also fell into the world of Sohyang with this song. Since then, Everytime I look for her other performances,it always exceeded my expectations even if I already knew about her abilities.
People often compare her to Dimash. Honestly, there's nothing in common between them, except they're just Asians.
Dimash is definitely a unique singer. He has a rare head voice as a male singer and it seems to make him stand out. But that's it. He is still a young singer who needs to develop more in his tessitura and still learn. Sohyang is a mature singer who has already experienced for decades and is a singer who is technically at the master level
Musically, they are also completely different. Dimash is an opera-based crossover singer and Sohyang is a contemporary singer rooted in gospel sound
It doesn't make sense to refer to her as 'Female Dimash'. It seems to compare them too often because of the their commonality that just they are Asian.
My comparison was nothing to do with being Asian and everything to do with how impeccable their control of their range is! ❤️
@@SoundCheckStudios Yeah I know you didn't mean that. But since I've heard so many of those comparisons so far, I just wanted to say that they are so different from each other
They absolutely are ❤️ but both are legend in their own way
@@SoundCheckStudios Anyway,after watch this I couldn't pass without 👍
Sohyang ! She is the next level singer in this world. Thanks for your nice reaction. From N.Y.
Sohyang singing everyone is also fantastic, probably my favourite performance of hers
Queen So Hyang in your area.
Seriously, it was best reaction. You did a good job👍
This song is about the dream of north and south korea uniting again one day, it is a very emotional song for them and she conveys it very well.
Doesn't matter what language do you speak.. Her voice just penetrates into your language barrier zone!! Thanks for your awesome reaction to SoHyang!!
Welcome to the world of our Queen SoHyang. Her English is also dead on perfect, singing and speaking. I am from the U.S. and have been around for 59 years, and this woman here is my favorite female vocalist ever. This song is just s slight taste of what she can do. This is a Korean Traditional song. Kind of an anthem. It is about the hopes that the North and South can one day become one again.
So Hyang is AMAZING! But will never understand people keep recommending Arirang Alone. It's a beautiful song, but it only shows about 25% of her potential. If you want to see more of her class, see Lean On Me, You Raise Me Up or Bridge Over Trouble Water. Absolute showstoppers all of them.
Outstanding vocal techniques, beautiful voice and appearance, and admirable character... She's a messenger of love, hope, and dreams.
I believe this is her masterpiece. She has religious and love songs that bring tears (many from me), but with those she has the lyrics and musical tradition working for her. But to evoke such emotion from an old folks song, to bare the heart of a people and bring tears to listeners with a parable of national rebirth and longing..... amazing.
It's always great fun to watch a first time ever reaction video of SoHyang, especially from a voice coach who never heard of her. Usually they started off casually saying something like.. 'this artist, is it So-Young? or So-HeeYang? sorry, is most highly requested artist by my subscribers, so here i am...' and then after a minute or so later, their eyes getting bigger and bigger and by the end of a song their facial expression all says 'OMG! What just happened? Is this girl real?... Well I'm not a voice coach but it happened to me. LOL.
Bridge Over Troubled Water by Sohyang next!
Bridge over troubled water - ruclips.net/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/видео.html
Hi, please, thanks…
Yes pls
Love how you interpreted the sense of community and togetherness when she encouraged everyone to join! It’s actually an unofficial anthem in Korea that tells about the dream of a reunified Korea. It’s beautiful that you got that sense without understanding it! Music is magic.
This is a very deep song, it's like the unofficial anthem for koreans!
Queen So hyang.
She has the best vocal of all time. Voice full of emotion and life that touches the soul. I too dont understand korean but i can feel her emotion every time when she sings a first word from her god gifted vocal tract.
Was nice reaction. Hope you would react to her english cover soon.
Love from NEPAL
Thanks for saying that cause i still marvel at how anyone (particularly someone in the business) doesn't know SoHyang. She's a one stop vocal class. Best in world..
Warm welcome to So Hyang's world. I really enjoyed your reaction to her. Believe it or not So Hyang has over 20 performances as legendary as Arirang Alone. Take care.
4:00 ish when you mentioned she sounded like a disney princess, she actually voiced the korean singing voice for Moana in the official dub!
Ow...it is such a pleasant surprise to get your reaction video of Sohyang's Arirang Alone. Always love it when someone knowledgeable of vocal pedagogy discovers Sohyang. It's a joy to see her artistic craft properly appreciated and enjoyed. It's clear that you enjoy those vocal feats Sohyang included in her rearranged Arirang Alone. You are correct that this is originally a traditional Korean folk song with relatively straight-forward melody. Sohyang revamped it into an epic drama with modern elements and vibrant dynamics. Technically Sohyang's singing may be as flawless as one would find but you demonstrates the real reason people love Sohyang when you becomes emotionally caught up in her performance. She ability to connect is such a rare gift I don't see often elsewhere.
Keen observation and pointed comment on sharing the attention and so very perceptive of you to divine Sohyang's humility and kindness as an individual. If you know her more, you will be enamored by her as a person, in addition to being a phenomenal singer.
BTW, when Disney released Moana in South Korea, Sohyang was invited to sing the title track "How Far Will I Go" for its release. Hope to see you visit Sohyang again. Many have suggested Sohyang's performances. They are all good. For my two cents, I'd mention "Bridge Over Troubled Water" at ruclips.net/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/видео.html
PS: Appreciate your perspective on the whitewashing of western music. Frankly, I hope the music labels in the West will learn to pay more attention to music diversity soon before other parts of the world leave them behind in the dust in time.
Sohyang - Everyone inmortal songs 2, that will shock you(make sure find it with English subtitles). She probably the best vocalist up there with Mariah.
Disney? But she did! She provided the singing voice for the Korean version of Moana. ;) Great reaction btw, thank you! If you wanna see more of her, I suggest you the song “Everyone”.
She is the singing voice of moana!!! I love her so much
Hi! I really liked your analysis on Sohyang's performance :) It is very interesting that you mention the sense of community that it made you feel, and the emotions it conveyed regardless of the language. "Arirang Alone" is a version of the Korean folk song "Arirang", which is over 600 years old. It is considered the non-official anthem of Korea and has a lot of historical importance to the nation.
At the beginning of the 20th century, when the Korean peninsula was occupied by the Japanese Empire, the song was used as a resistance anthem against the Japanese colonial rule. Later, after the Korean war and division, the song has been used in several political and cultural events as a symbol of the nation's hope for reunification. Hence the beautiful lyrics arrangement of this version. It is really a very special song for the two Koreas and Sohyang beautifully transmits all the history and meaning behind it
Great explanation about the meaning of Arirang! From your name, it does not look like you are Korean, but you seem to have a very good understanding about the Korean history. Kudos!
@@Marmottechang 감사합니다! I spent a year in Seoul as an exchange student when I was an undergrad and later did my thesis on Hallyu and Korean soft power. Fell in love with Korean culture and have enjoyed it since
Thank you for the thoughtful reaction and analysis. I strongly second the recommendations of Everyone and Dream. Americans often recommend familiar English language "pretty songs" like Bridge Over Troubled Water and You Raise Me Up and Oh Holy Night which are beautiful but have similar vocal tone, shadings and range and mislead as to her capabilities. Everyone is very powerful with a richer tone, greater range and dramatic arrangement (middle part in English). Dream is her own upbeat inspirational piece with jazzy elements and a strong finale. She arranged Lean on Me to build to a fast paced R&B and soul song with crazy vocals. Hug Me is a great example of her intensely emotional arrangements of Korean ballads (a few others are Breathe, Fate, Do You Know, Where Are You, Dear Love, Never Ending Story). She also covered rock spectactularly (Mona Lisa), hip hop (Day Day), and jazzy (Childish Adult, I Always Miss You, Misty). Day to day she is a gospel/CCM (Upon This Rock) and inspirational (Running to the Sky) singer and soundtrack artist (Wind Song, Only My Heart Knows).
Is Day Day hip hop or rap? Hip hop with alot of rap element in it??
@@ignatiuschua5268 You're right this is more rap than hip hop. Bewhy is a rapper but I've heard Day Day with an electronic backing and the structure struck me as somewhat hip-hop.
sohyang - in the flower garden , the day was sunny kiss ..you maybe enjoy these stages

She's a queen 👑♥️
She's The Queen
Thank you for your great reaction! Sohyang is an amazing self management gospel singer, she's 42, cancer survival, a beautiful woman with kind heart, she sing to comfort people through their hard times and for God's glory, and her voice her skills is on top of the world! I love your video and I hope you will make more reaction to her. My suggestion is 'Lean on me' from the show Immortal song 2. Thank you and have a nice day
Very well said!! Thanks. So Huang is a great singer. I came across her about 2 yrs ago. This song is a Korean folk song. Very beautiful and touching.
Hey Zara, I vote for the following two songs. Absolutely powerful in different ways. 1. "Everyone" with the English subtitles 2. "Mona Lisa" from King of the Masked Singers. I guarantee - 1. you will enjoy them, 2. people will enjoy your reactions.
Dimash is actually a male Sohyang. She's actually old enough to be his mother, a young one, but still. She's actually married and infertile so your dream of Sohyang/Dimash super babies is, unfortunately, not possible. A duet between them would be awesome, though
I really loved your reaction, Especially your humble attitude to learn about Korean music culture which you can't easily listen to.
Arirang is Korean traditional lyrical folk song. Koreans regard Arirang as unofficial national anthem. Arirang contains the pain and sorrow, but also the will to overcome all those pains together as Korean. There are more than 60 versions of regional Arirang. Sohyang arranged Arirang as Sohyang version and this version was used by Korean figure skating team to perform on 2018 Pyeongchang winter olympic.
No need to apologize, we all learn to be better together. I learn about these new amazing singers/musicians and bands from you guys reactors on RUclips. I learned about Dimash, Morissette, KZ Tandingan, Diana Ankudinova, Daneliya Tuleshova, and now So Hyang from amazing reactors like you Zara. RUclips really makes us break any barrier and boundary about music worldwide. Thank you for reacting to So Hyang, she is now one of the top 5 non-metal vocalists that I love beside Dimash, Mori, KZ, and Diana. Cheers!! 😊😊
Kudos on wanting to expand your horizon. Kudos on getting the message of the song right away. Because, although Sohyang is indeed a technical beast (which you will find out even more once you review her many performances), she's also an emotive par excellence when it comes to understanding that singing is about communicating and connecting.
You sensing "community" as the message of this song is a great example of that (this is the unofficial anthem of Korea. The people, not the Nations. It is a sense of identity, history, unity, etc). When she sings messages of hope and consolation, it feels like a blessing, when she sings love songs, especially the heartbreak ones, it feels aching. The emotive parts I said were subjective ofc, no matter how many testimonials we can find. But, objectively speaking, her technical achievements had already secured her a spot as one of the all time greats in vocal pedagogy history.
This brings me to last but certainly not least of what makes her unbelievably unique. Because, despite knowing how damn good she was, Sohyang remains a humble personality. Rejecting national and international contracts, not having even one social media account or online presence to self-promote herself more, acts of charities, even down to her song choices, all of them testify and confirm what she said about not singing to chase fame or money. Calling her rare is an understatement indeed. Diva talent, without the diva attitude.
Very well spoken!
I love that you immediately understood that she is the female Dimash, ha ha.
Yessss Thank You Very Much For Reacting To SOHYANG. I Promise you will never disapoint every reaction performance to Sohyang. lets go to English Song Performance Of SOHYANG i suggest "BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER" "YOU RAISE ME UP 2018" "LEAN ON ME" AND "I HAVE NOTHING" its amazing performance
Welcome to Sohyang's world. Thank you for your lovely reaction and knowledges.
You need to check her life story if you want to figure out why people loves her so much and why she becomes a different (read: better) singer than the others. It's not about techniques and skills, it's way more deeper than that. An amazing person in and out of stage.
One more thing, she's an ultimate tear jerker, she never failed on that, so don't worry, don't hold the tears, we've been there, still there, and always be there.
Very excited for your next reaction of her. Cheers^^.
When you search the song singing by Sohyang, I guarantee that all of them are awesome. Please try to listen anything else.
So young but so wise. Keep broadening your horizons and learn from as many people and culture as you can. It’s people like you that will help change the world.
Firstly,great reaction & welcome to the world of so hyang(pron.soyang). Its funny that you mention dimash as she is often referred to as the 'queen' to dimash's 'king' when it comes to vocals.This is meant to be a simple traditional korean folk song but it has been turned in to something more epic by so hyang's arrangement(she does the arrangements for all her performances). She can sing any genre,as you will find out if you decide to further your so hyang journey.please dont think that because of this song & the fact that she's wearing traditional korean dress, that is what she's all about & you'll just end up watching more of the same because nothing could be further from the truth,this 'traditional' song is the exeption rather than the rule (obviously if you'd decided to start your journey with a different song you would've seen this already). What you said about how she made you feel even though you didn't understand the lyrics struck a chord with me because she is the only person(& dimash on the odd occasion) thar can regularly reduce me to tears when I have no idea what she's singing about & even more so when there are english subs (try watching her korean songs on vimeo as they usually have subs),she does sing quite often in english though. She is know for her clarity & how high she can go in mixed voice. Her signature note is Bb5 which she hits so sweetly,although she does go higher. You also mentioned the 'disney princess' thing so I thought you'd like to know that she is actually the voice of Moana in the official korean dubbed version of the film & there are video's available of her singing 'how far i'll go' etc. Once again, welcome to the incredible world of so hyang,I hope you continue this journey now you've taken your first steps & trust me,you will never regret taking the time to watch another so hyang performance. Finally, a dimash/so hyang duet!!! I could die a happy woman if this was to ever materialize 😇
Awe it’s adorable seeing you get emotional without even knowing the backstory of the song (it’s about North Korea and South Korean being unified one day) so yes it’s really important in SK. Funny you bring up Dimash, definitely King and Queen for me 👑.
“Everyone” by SoHyang would be great next as you can tell from the flood of cmmnts lol.
Yep. That one made me cry. Stunning. 👏🏽🤩
Welcome to the So-Hyang world XD
To me Sohyang is my Queen of Singers and Dimash is my King of Singers!!! Love so much Sohyang and her blessed voice!
Great reaction to Queen So Hyang please react to her performances of Bridge Over Troubled Water,Lean on Me,Everyone and I Have Nothing,they’re amazing.
I love Sohyang singing. Continue to watch her sing at singing competition Immortal Songs 1) Bridge over troubled water 2) lean on me 3) you raise me up 4) I have nothing.
I recommend So yang - amazing grace !!
So Hyang is... epic...masterpiece... phenomenal... out of the world....simply THE experience
Just watch “O holy night” from I am singer2 version and “You raise me up” from Immortal Song2 version
Welcome to Sohyang's song world~~~~!♥♥
So so so many her cover songs there are~~~
You can't run away from the music Goodness, Sohyang... I do bet!!!
Great comments ! You noticed every details including sohyang's interaction with the violinist and you are so right that she's a humble person so far as i know.
I say Dimash is the male Sohyang.she is a 42 year old south korean .in her early 20s she had a battle with cancer and won since then she has devoted her talent to God and to people going though hard times.She has turned down the spotlightI am 73 years old listened to alot of singers in that time she is my top 5 if not number1 of all time.thanks
I am 57, and Sohyang is my #1 of all time.
I am 54, and Sohyang is my #1 of all time
I am 69, and Sohyang is my #1 of all time
@@ignatiuschua5268 I'm 40 ,and sohyang Is my #1 of all time
I'm 62 and So Hyang is my No. 1 of all time! ;)
Oh I love her too Zara!! Thanks for introducing her. Her voice is really comforting.
Her masterpiece is Everyone! Definitely a must see!
I love So Hyang and her voice is so so beautiful. I recomend "Everyone" (my absolute favourite next to Arirang alone), "You raise me up", "Lean on me", "Mona Lisa" , "Hug me" and "Bridge over troubled water" as well as "Holy Night".
Also you are very authentic and I liked your reaction.
Greetings from Germany
Stay safe ♥
Warm welcome to the amazing world of SoHyang....!!! this is just the tip of the ice burg of her talents, for me, Dimash is the male SoHyang not the other way around... :) Check out one of her English song covers "I have nothing" by Whitney Huston. link:- ruclips.net/video/Nr8_nr4Bofk/видео.html (this is the best cover of I have nothing out-there, and I have listen to a lot)
Hey Zara Love everything you said about not being controlled it's all about the Money, Dinero, Francs, Quan we let the Media, Governments and Big corporations control us :) I told you a while back that Dimash is King of Vocals and So Hyang must be Queen then would love to hear them do a duet that would be Magical. Keep going more Dimash and Sohyang
Especially considering your youthful age, I so much appreciate hearing your respectfuly, exansive musical perspective before your reaction began. How cool for you to acknowledge our predominant musical bias in Western musical artists, placing popular artists with their hallmark songs as the definitive standard to measure any other artist up to. Kudos to you on your insights.
React to dream by so hyang 😁
After hitting The Bb5, she just went to D6 by head voice.
Absolutely great reaction and you're Best looking as always. 👍🏻
So from what I understand the song is so old that it has so many variations and versions, but the version she's singing I think is Korea's anthem kind of song, it got the meaning they attach to it now after the end of the Japanese/Korean war, that's when South and North Korea split up, and it literally tore families, friends and lovers apart. So this song talk of the hope of reuniting with the each other. I'm glad you enjoyed her, she's one of my favorite singers and I don't have many.
Also, a bit of background information about her, she almost died in her twenties due to cancer, when she survived she thought of it as a gift from God and she wanted to sing to heal others pains and tell them she's been there and she feels their pain. She still suffers from other illnesses, so from time to time she's preform while having pneumonia, which amazes me honestly. Anyway good luck with your discovery!
Thank you for the reaction, the look on your face as you fought back tears was every one of us when we heard this song for the first time. 100's of viewings later and it still has the same effect. She is every bit the artist and person you perceive her to be and we can't wait for you to discover more of her. Subscribed.
I agree 100% with your assessment of the Western / American music scene. There is so much more out there than American divas, and Sohyang tops my list. I have always enjoyed Japanese music, but discovered Sohyang a year or so ago. I love all of her songs, but my favorite is probably Breathe, followed closely by Hug Me, Oh Holy Night, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Everyone, Where are You, her gospel music, and on and on and on. From an American who has been around the block a few times, Sohyang is the best!
Zara Zara Zara... She gets me going EVERYTIME!
Now next song... Everyone.....
You are doing very well. You are keeping it real, you are humble, you have a lot of insight.
Asia has soooo much to offer. i am happy you are on this journey now.
Regards from Thailand.
Arirang is a Korean traditional song to a degree that many Koreans think it as a second national anthem. And whenever I as a Korean listen to this song, it evokes some mixture of deep feelings that is hard to describe in words. Now I can see that this impact is not limited to Koreans. Thanks for the great reaction video and plz continue to do reaction to Sohyang's performances.
DONT DONTTTTTTTTT COMPARE sohyang to dimash everrr shes her own perfect great personnnnnnnnnnn yesssss!! She’s is
i really dont think she said it in a bad way.. chill
Nobody said she did so you chill, I said what was on my mind don’t look at the comment if your going to get offended
@@tyvellekenney317 chill lmao
Loved your reactions! Although you look very young, you seem very knowledgeable and also humble. Kudos for you. I am sure your career will go very far! As a big fan of Sohyang, it is great to see experts like yourself appreciate Sohyang's ability to sing and comfort people. Keep up the great work!
That absolutely blew my mind! So beautiful.
Love you and miss you Zara! So incredibly proud!!!
So much love for you!! ❤️
Thanks Zara for your reaction and your openess. You are totaly Sohyangified. The feeling of togetherness you mention is totaly her doing. She owns a unique level of transmiting emotions to the audience. The song is like a national anthem of Korea, traditional song lived through centuries, representing the common efford of the Korean people to survive and prosper. This is the feeling you got from her own arrangment and performance.
For a fun reaction, you might want to check out her singing the official Korean dub for “Moana”
she can belt c#6 with resonance and she use mixed balance
I 💓 sohyang 👸👏👏👏👍👍
Thank you so much for bringing up the issue of Western culture almost turning a blind eye to the talent in the rest of the world. It was really insightful of you, and for being so passionate about listening to all kinds of music and vocalists from around the globe. Loved this so much ❤️
If you want to cry, watch her performance of Everyone. Watch it on vimeo for proper subs. The song is a gospel song in both English and Korean and I think you might actually cry if you read the lyrics while listening to the performance.
Best analysis on sohang's arirang alone. So moved my mind as korean. Happy new hundred years.
You're about 22 now and as a Gen X person, I'm always late to the party. I'm so privileged to be living long enough to see evolution happening in front of my eyes. I hope you guys can save what we ruined in time. Sohyang soothes the soul. 💕💕
I was crying too when I watch Bridge over Trouble, Arirang and Everyone
Lol you mention Dimash
I really respect your openness toward other cultures. As you mentioned, some Western people think that they are the "World" and are locked within their own things. I really enjoyed your video and please try other Sohyang's songs. My recommendations are "You raised me up", "Bridge over troubled water", "Everyone", "I will always love you", "Misty", "I have nothing", and many others.... Again, thank you for your reaction.
Saludos 😊 ! Escucho a So hyang desde el 2014, y hasta ahora en mis 41 años de edad, no conocí una voz tan dinámica y completa en todas las formas, voz, de pecho, voz mixta, voz de cabeza impecable 🤩👌🏻 sueño hermoso, angelical, y limpio de principio a fin, pues ella es una maestra del canto 🎶 Utiliza todas las herramientas 🧰 vocales en sus interpretaciones....... waooooo omg 😍❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
algun dia tendrà el reconocimiento de la gente, ya los expertos saben que So Hyang esta en el olimpo de las diosas vocales
That violinist is a Brit Korean raised in UK named Sue Son and she was on Britain's Got Talent BTW I grew up listening to Air Supply and Men Down Under oh and ACDC here in the states but Sohyang is my all time favorite!!! Not only because she does missionary work and sings to kids in Haiti but how down to earth, she is always humble....Please check out her Hug Me and more of her other great songs TYVM...
welcome to the really fantastic world of Sohyang !!
She's SoHyang, not anyone's another version
Thank you for doing a reaction to sohyang. Personally, I think she is better in terms of the technique, musicality, breath controls, vocalization, and everything.
For another octave jump, you can watch This is My World.
I would like to recommend Everyone, Home, Dream, Brigde Over Trouble Water, and I Have Nothing for now :)
