    So Hyang is the Queen vocalist of South Korea and top 3 all around vocalist in the world right now in my humble opinion. Great reaction. If you want to keep getting blessed, do more So Hyang reaction. You won't regret it.

      She's definitely in that "Best of the Best" category. This was UNBELIEVABLE! I will definitely react to more Sohyang soon. Thanks for your comment.

    Her recent "Angel" performance comforts using her completely different "heavenly" voice. Her own new song "Til You Love Me Again" great example her "Diva" voice. People sometimes can't believe same woman has all these different perfect voices plus her jazz voice "Misty", her Disney voice, etc.

    So Hyang is considered by many voice critics and singers to be technically the best female vocalist in the world. I agree, and my favorite as an artist and person, too. Though she started singing, and still does, in the church, she sings every kind of genre outside of the church. Her 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' from KBS TV is one of the greatest live performances by any singer ever. And for the flip of the power belting, there is a new song just released from her busking in Spain called 'Angel'. Another of her greatest live performances is 'I Have Nothing' from the DMC Festival. It may be the best version of the song ever performed. The journey through her music still is growing as she put out an album recently, and has several busking videos from the Covid times and from Spain this past summer. She is now 46 and it seems like her vocal control and nuances has gotten even better! Thanks for the great reaction.

      I agree. She is one of the most astounding vocalists I've ever encountered. Sohyang is truly a vocally gifted phenomenon. I have no doubt that she continues to get better and better. Thanks for your informative comment.

    We all wonder if Sohyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such _POWER_ it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself, with the input of her in-law family and musical assistants, teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks four languages: Korean, English, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading French and Greek!
    Let me catch my breath. OK.
    She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all eagerly worked with her when they were in Asia.
    She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere!
    She just turned 46 on April 5, 2024, though in Korean culture she would be 47 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone,” their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527
    While being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international attention from the performances being posted on RUclips.
    Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on RUclips and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted Sohyang and went to Japan in order to have her perform eight concerts with him at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. For those who don't know, David Foster was Whitney Houston's producer for some of her songs, wrote "I Have Nothing," her most iconic song, and is the most famous and influential music producer in the world. He places Sohyang right beside Whitney and the rest of the top tier divas.
    Here is the interview where Sohyang related the events: ruclips.net/video/EqeE_1nP-Kk/видео.html (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.)
    Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster, Whitney's former manager and the rest watched on RUclips: ruclips.net/video/T4UyIMkdy4M/видео.html
    She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203
    She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 16:25 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”
    In a South Korean television interview Sohyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. Sohyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding international celebrity status from her. ruclips.net/video/rl-jX9kBsEs/видео.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.)
    So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no interactive social media presence whatsoever.
    What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her! And whether Sohyang likes it or not, fame has found her, run her over and then backed up and run over her again!
    On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that Sohyang turned down _yet another_ contract offer, this time from Sony Music US. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995
    “Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said.
    “I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.”
    “And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via RUclips, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.”
    Sohyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble and genuine, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts.
    In Korean dictionaries 소향--Sohyang--has several meanings.
    • First is a type of Korean traditional music.
    • Second is to burn incense on a burner.
    • Third is to go toward.
    But these meanings are rarely used today. Sohyang is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. Yet for the definitive answer Sohyang has stated in an interview that her name means "enjoy the light." Her grandmother named her.
    Please analyze her performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”: ruclips.net/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/видео.html
    Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: ruclips.net/video/LrNkVRrK7_I/видео.html
    Plus this beautiful duet with her friend Lee Hi where they do Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”: vimeo.com/439148918
    And this version of her singing “Oh Holy Night”: vimeo.com/322716334
    Here she performs “Lean On Me” before Michael Bolton, who called her a vocal “virtuoso” after her performance: ruclips.net/video/GvsgCllcNPE/видео.html
    Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: ruclips.net/video/rte-q3kunp8/видео.html
    Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448
    And finally “Will You Be There”: ruclips.net/video/nBdSpexUxik/видео.html
    Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: ruclips.net/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/видео.html Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews.
    OK, I’ll stop gushing now.
    Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer Sohyang's assistants revealed (a bit to her chagrin, as she is a self-effacing person) that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: ruclips.net/video/VnPAkryrygQ/видео.html I know, bananas isn’t it?
    Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published fantasy novelist and has a theological treatise on the Book of Revelation in print. In addition, she is a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean stage production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She taught herself English by watching Disney's "The Little Mermaid" 'about one hundred times' when she was just a kid, speaks English with a _perfect_ North American accent and has an outgoing and bubbly personality.
    She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Ironically, Sohyang stated in another interview that both she and her in-law family were surprised to discover that she could sing so excellently!
    Though she is maybe 5' 4" and only about 100 pounds, Sohyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it, and then re-emerges when she is done. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent _entire days_ listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way.
    I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people Sohyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear, and that is important to note as these are _essential_ elements of any great musical production. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else.
    As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😉

    You just discover a GEM!!😎
    Kim So Hyang, stage name Sohyang, is a 46(?!?!) year old South Korean CCM singer. She is known for her vocal skills and her vocal range accredited by the media as the Korean Mariah Carey.
    She is also a university professor of music and author of fantasy novels.
    Very strong person, as a child after the separation of her parents she went through a bad economic period.
    She started singing in church when she was young and there she joined the Pos group where she met her husband, the drummer, married at 20.
    Just married, unfortunately she contracts cancer, she defeats, but denies her the possibility of becoming a mother.
    After that experience she decides to dedicate her life as a Christian believer to comfort with her voice the people who are going through bad times.
    She personally arranges her performances with her husband and her team. 🎧
    PS. her voice leads to addiction 😎🎧

    I'm 86 and have heard a lot of music and, to me, this is the most epic performance, man or woman, that I have ever heard, even after 100+ times watching it!
    So Hyang is a humble genius, singer, song writer, author, teacher, multilingual and so much more yet she is now out busking in Europe, performing directly for those small audiences, and bringing them comfort, as when she sang "In The Arms of the Angels" while sitting next to a random person she asked to help hold her song book.
    Her life is worth all the research one can do! We are truly blessed to have one such as So Hyang among us!

    Should I call you Waylon? You have an extra quality as a reactor because you participate in the flow of the music, so I was glad that you found this video and have seen Sohyang perform. I said 'have seen' because, in order to understand Sohyang, you must SEE her sing. She is deeply religious, a Gospel singer from her roots, and this IS her Cornerstone performance. It is a Sermon from the sweetest preacher you ever heard. That Acapella section was exquisite, perfect - she spoke to us, Everyone, and THEN, that last minute of the performance is the essence of pure JOY. Only Sohyang can do this. She is beauty, grace, power - of voice, and of person. When she soars straight onto those high notes, holds them, and then unleashes that shimmering Vibrato, it is like nothing you've ever heard . . . .
    Sorry about gushing, but Sohyang IS the finest of Sopranos and very likely the finest person on the planet.
    Cheers.
