what I love about watching SoHyang is how she wears her heart on her sleeve when she is singing. She is completely open and genuine, and I completely agree with what you said about her energy. She has an ability to look the audience in the eye and encourage them to connect to the song along with her. She's very charismatic. I would like for you to please react to her rendition of " lean on me".
I got to mention, please do "you raise me up". This is one of so Hyang's best performances.
I’ll check it out! Thanks for the recommendations as usual 😊
fun fact : she's 42 years old....
amazing.....
💞💞💞What touches me the most is that for me she sings with her heart. soul and emotion, and she gets her feelings transfered over to me. She often makes me so emotionally that I tear up! Please ...please reacted to more of Sohyang! Thanks again for a great reaction. I feel I am actually learn from you despite just being a music listener!! 💞💞💞
SoHyang is a true vocalist and artist of this era. Thank you so much for your video and analysis.
i really love her voice❤️❤️
Thank you for the reaction~
She is my favorite singer.
nice reaction, and thank you for the great analysis. what i most value in her performances is the ability for her to connect with my emotions on a level that no other singer can. for me it's not just about her perfect pitch or high notes, it's more about the emotions she put in her singing a great example would be her performance "Everyone" that i would like you to listen and react to. Thanks again!
Thanks for the interesting analysis. The sliding of jawline during Sohyang's performances seemed particularly noticeable during the 2015 period. It's interesting to hear your hypothesis on its causes. I wondered about it as well at a time. Whatever its cause, I didn't notice it in her more recent performances. I also want to applaud you for making the point about bringing the emotional commitment to the performance. There are many wonderful vocalists, including some who are downright awe-inspiring or even shocking to hear. However, I don't find anyone else who comes close to provoking the level of emotional response in me the way Sohyang can. The willingness to expend the energy and to make the emotional connection is really something that sets Sohyang apart for me. She can stir up feelings in my no other earthling can. Appreciate your insight.
Sohyang is the best and an angel!!!!! So natural, humble, down to earth!!! THE QUEEN !!!!
I like your reaction. Nice information. Maybe you can react to her other cover "i have nothing".
She's full of technic and good range. For me she is a Legendary Vocalist.
So hyang is just amazing, thanks for the great review Dr. Mark
My favorite thing about her is that she makes me FEEL DEEP IN MY SOUL!!! She sings from HER SOUL which is what gospel music is all about.
Queen sohyang
I enjoy her singing very much . I just watched another video on her the first time today on another channel . So I wanted to watch yours as soon as I noticed you were also reacting to her. She's very good . Great analysis !
Sohyang is just AMAZING no words to describe her she's so pure & ANGELIC... And I love her story & respect her so much
Thanks, I know I grind my teeth at night and I never knew it could be the cause of my jaw tension while singing, I will try those exercises...
Please react to Raise me up from 2018, it is amazing performance too, notice that she was sick and very tired there. Also there are a lot of other songs like I have nothing, Everyone, Dream, Fate, King of Masked Singer collection ( this is interesting because she wears a mask and varies the genres, also she was so tired in between and before the performances that she started to eat meat even though she really dislikes it to keep her energy level somewhat high), Lean on me, It’s only my world etc.
She is an amazing hard worker, who rehearses a new song for more then 100 times and rearranges it to suit herself. Also she says she is always very nervous on big stage( especially in the earlier part of her career), because she prefers gospel songs and finds high belting really tiresome, but i guess her extreme practice and belief in God helps. Now she is of course very accustomed to it already.
Almost noone pays attention, but you may consider comparing her performances of same songs in 2012 and 2015 or even from 2015 to 2018.She is constantly working on improving her performances and technique which is amazing and really hard to do at this level.
Thanks.
Hi Dr Marc,
Awsome So Hyang, great singer and vocal range emotion, and energy I love her👍👏this nessage tip you gave is also good for all tension in the face when we are stressed thx.
What did I take away from this video?
You just fell head over heels in love.
would you be willing to put your "fun facts" at the bottom of the screen? sorta like a pop up? the many breaks in the song kinda take away from the experience
He is doing that due to copyright
@@AndrewKim-jt2by Can you explain this? Because all the other reaction vids I've seen don;t have this issue
@@iPoeky so those youtubers who uses full actual clip from the broad cast, they will make no profit from the video and receive yellow tag from the RUclips since it is copyright issue. They edit it that way so they can make money.
So Hyang is the best singer ever !!!
Marc, something always gets in my eyes, too, whenever I listen to So Hyang! ;)

she defo took us to church innit. it almost sounded like black church.
i've watched this video many times now not just bc i'm interested in the reactions people have of that performance but also just bc it's so beautiful. what i noticed most this time, bc i'm focusing on that a lot, is the control she has over he air flow. wow.
이 아저씨도 소향노래만 들으면 눈에 자꾸 벌레 들어가나보네? 나도 자꾸 벌레 들어가서 눈 오지게 비비는데..ㅠㅠ
nice touch with sohyang information during the reaction
She is Extraordinary & original .
Dr. Reynolds, si é commosso! ♥♥♥
Don't stop music.
Love you~~
Good point on the energy. I would use the word "radiance". Whatever it is, Sohyang is beaming plenty of positive aura when she performs. Perhaps it's due to how her background and history shaped her into who she is, a genuinely humble and kind human being, making personal human connections with others via her vocal instrument.
As for what she's doing with her jaw, it was noticeable for a couple of years, roughly from 2012 to 2015. (It kinda reminded me of Barbara Streisand in a way.) I don't recall seeing that in Sohyang's early performances when she was young (when her techniques was just meh). Feel free if anyone can clue me in with samples I haven't seen. I could be mistaken, but I believe it's just a phase. Sohyang could be experimenting or trying things, or maybe having temporary issue, such as health related or grinding like you said. So, she either had ended the experiment, or fixed/took care of whatever the issue/cause.
please react to so hyang lean on me !!!
Please react to so hyang more.. 🙏 🙏 great analysis and reaction. Thanks so much..
My Queen Sohyang♥
ten of ten
Perfect.
I loved your fun facts section
Korean singer So Hyang(소향) is super awesome!
Finally - someone who knows and understands what he's listening to. Thank you for not talking during the performance. I understand the need for "fun facts" and they're much better than some kid saying "wow" or commenting on her dress every five seconds. Most people doing reaction videos look like they're going to sleep - not to awaken until the high notes. While her high notes are wonderful, the real beauty is to be found on the softer passages where her lovely tone is displayed. The fantastic straight tone at the end of the 1st 16 bars is absolutely beautiful. A word about her wonderful arrangements should also be given. I understand So Hyang and her husband write almost all of her arrangements. All in all, a great performance by a great singer - and a great reaction as well.
I agree with you here and it’s even more enjoyable and impressive that the arrangements are hers and her husbands. They make a great team!
Dr. Marc Reynolds
Nope, i disagree, the song must consist of low mid high with perfect balance.
.
So high pitch 1% of low notes exist
The arrangement was so all over,
High notes 95%
Mid range 4%
Audio and mic enhance 100% exist
She didn't build up the song
She almost tortured the song
Total
Quite good but not impressive
황성제 (Hwang, Seong-jae) [BJJ Music, Butterfly production team] is credited for many of the arrangements of Sohyang's big performances.
BTW, I'd ignore the FAILipino comment. It took 4 Filipino sisters to try to replicate this Sohyang cover.
Hi Mark, I’ve just come across you when reacting to Jonathan Antoine & I am mightily impressed with both your knowledge & experience when critiquing these fabulous performers.
What a beautiful performance by this lovely young lady &/such a great reaction.
I would appreciate you reacting to a young Soprano by the name of Amira Willighagen who won Holland’s Got Talent at the age of nine without even a single singing lesson. I don’t agree to children attempting to sing opera arias for fear of vocal damage, but, this young person is truly the exception. Amira is now 16, but I draw your attention to her singing Ave Maria by Gomez at the Canisius Church at the age of 11. This performance shows the unique voice control & superb range Amira has for one so young & does so effortlessly using her natural voice without trying to sound like an adult which child classical singers tend to do. Please react to this incredible talent as she is simply amazing.
I have subscribed to your Chanel, & keep up the great work. I’m impressed.
ps.. Amira has an incredible story, so I hope you can come on board & enjoy what literally millions worldwide are enjoying.
Queen👑👑
Our Queen
Oh !!! What the beautiful, powerful, emotional and amazing performance with her incredible singing ability ! I work as a doctor and have been in music for a long time. Since I was very young, I have been to several concerts by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. I have known about Sohyang in less than 8 months. At first I was very shocked and surprised that there was a really amazing and fantastic singer in the world. I thought there would be no singers in the world who would compare or surpass Maria Carey and Whitney Houston. But after I saw her, I found out that I was not well. I must say Sohyang is the only singer in the world that combines Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Celine Dion. Thanks for your nice reaction. From N.Y.
@@whatthell Are you stalking me? Who the hell are you meddling in, whether I say similar things about similar content or not? I tried to understand you, but you're too much. I think you're stuck in your own world. You live in a world where you used to talk only about records of ERA, Batting Average, RBIs, Home Runs and Steals in baseball. Currently, OPS, BABIP and WHIP etc. based on a slightly more advanced saver matrix are being valued. Open your eyes to change and listen to a different story from you.
@@whatthell And, you don't seem to know much about courtesy. You seem to really believe what you say. If you don't know someone well, don't talk like you do. You know I'm being as patient as I can be and saying good things to you.
@@whatthell , You are very strange. It may vary depending on the song and the situation, or it may be the same. What's the problem with that? Even if I always told the same story, what's the problem? You just seem to argue with the person you want to talk to.
@@whatthell , That's why I told you you're stuck in your own world. You only believe what you want to believe and try to deny what you think is different. Would I have reacted this way if I had said the same thing as you thought? I'll give you an example from your argument.
Doctors say people should stop smoking, drink less alcohol, and do 30 minutes of aerobic exercise a day if they want to stay healthy and not get sick.
However, you argue that what doctors say is false, based on someone saying in an interview, "I got sick even if I did what the doctor told me to do and I knew there are many people like me in my around."
I'll compare the car tires to the vocal cords. When people drive the same distance and road, the number of times they light up the brakes is as follows.
1. Whistle : 189 brakes.
2. STRAIN : 45 brakes.
3. Support : 3 brakes.
I hope you understand this well and open your eyes. Bye.
It's a good idea that you insert some information about her. I wonder which song you're gonna react to.

Welcome to So Hyang's world!!
I love the soft begin and then she exploded ! She did also by her song; "Arirang Alone". And in the end she sang agin soft ! OMG !
갓소향
korea angel...
so hyang!
amazing grace...
love you
Personally, if it were a choice between interrupting the performance with comments vs intermittent fun facts, I think your comments would make for a better flow of the video.
I understand the issue with copyright, and ideally, you and we would be able to listen to the full song, but here it's best to pick the lesser of two evils. Fun facts break the flow way too much with drawn out silences, and while comments do somewhat the same, at least we're still getting your great insight (and helps cut down on video length). Cheers!
another level...
Ok this camera quality is lit
Hello, I just subscribed to your channel and think you're an awesome reactor. Anyway, Kim SoHyang is one of the best in South Korea and is one of my favorite of many of the Asian music industry. I belong to a fan base club of hers on Facebook, Last month our administrator and another member went to South Korea to see her live and deliver roses and our letters we wrote to her. She is a wonderful beautiful God fearing woman. the interview was posted by my friend and the company of Kim SoHyang as well. Anyway, on my channel, I have over 90 of her music videos and several episodes of Immortal song 2 where she was on just now, it is a singing competition show where 7 of the best of South Korea gather to sing yesteryears songs. She eventually won that time and got the trophy its an awesome episode of many wonderful American pop Korean favorites. here is a link to another episode of Immortal songs with Kim SoHyang singing "You Raise me up" in a tribute to an Irish band of the 90 called Westlife and Shane Filan was the guest at that time. I hope you enjoy the wonderful arrangements she did, ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html
With her jaw moving to one side sometimes, I get the feeling that it is just 'boredom' - this stuff is so easy for her, and time must seem to go slowly during the less intense parts, that she mentally relaxes in some places and lets the jaw move. I also think maybe it is her way of mentally resetting herself for the next part. However it could also be tension I guess - as she can be paranoid and self conscious about her singing level, and used to wonder if she was good enough, even thinking of retiring at one stage. Believe it or not. She has mentioned health problems in recent times as well. THIS particular performance was actually part of a contest against other well known professional singers, on TV, and she did say she was exhausted afterwards, she was shaking. I believe she won as well. She participated in another of these contests, the Michael Bolton contest on tv, where she sang a So Hyang version of 'Lean On Me', which floored everybody, and she won that one as well, easily.
As an MD in America I get the sense the sidejaw was a habit not a symptom of a bigger problem. She has given viewers plenty of opportunities for a dental exam. She has nesrly perfect teeth and shows no effect of teeth grinding (no broken, malformed, or shortened tenth and no gum problems). She is a perfectionist and has since corrected it.
Pls do some more Sohyang
Will do!
💪
I like So Hyang not because of the religion her adheres to even I don't want to know her religion, I like her because his voice is very beautiful and good, powerful
Hello Dr.Marc
Hi!
Wow~~
How couldn't anybody subscribe to your channel? And 👍.🔔
Different reaction from others !!!!
Thank you, coach 'nim' ^^
(nim means sir or lady in korean -- represents a respecting and an obeying to elder or better people than me)
👍 😊
Your Fun Facts are an unfortunate interruption for those really wanting to take in a truly great performance.😬
Thank RUclips. It's because of copyright to avoid getting a strike.
최고야 전설이다
The continuous comments and breaks does not do credit to the beauty of her performance. This is an unbelievable performance by a non-English person and we should be left tot least enjoy and be entertained for just those few minutes! What a pity that you comments super seeded her fantastic performance and was made to be more important than her singing.
You can watch the original video uninterrupted.
You still can put those words at the upper left corner of the clip without breaking too many times.
Pls react you raised me up!! By so hyang
재미있는 사실.
우리는 소향 노래를 좋아한다. 나도 모르게
You should react to Katrina velarde go the distance
React to Sohyang's Fate pls!
Please react to Hua Chenyu singing Nunchucks in the Singer competition (the song is not his, but the arrangement is). I would love to hear your thought about his singing and performing, he is a unique performer, you'll see.
So hyang♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Like fun facts
형님 목소리 좋아요 ㅎㅎ 소향 최고
She is sister-in law of Jinjoo.L (guitarist of DNCE).
In my opinion, there were too many breaks in the song. Half of the number would have still been too many. Your old format of using just a couple breaks made the reaction less frustrating. That being said, because I am familiar with your analysis, I will continue to watch regardless. However, if I was a new viewer, I would be too impatient with this reaction to continue watching.
i agree completely, as a new viewer of the channel. i'll likely check in to see if he's covered any of my favorite artists, but likely won't subscribe.
there is something agitating about having an incredibly powerful & commanding performance broken up by "fun facts!" every 30 seconds, & breaking the mood for a full 5 seconds each time.
i understand copyright strikes & such, but hopefully there will be a better alternative in the future for avoiding these!
edited to say: after really thinking about it, i realized there's particular instances where dimash manages to hold a note for nearly the entire duration of time elapsed between the breaks in the video. just kinda drove yr original point home even more for me.
Agree
To many high notes and im so off of that...its boring as usual when you listen to her, always torturing the song...
@@nyonyangnyunognyata4596 dude I just saw your comment on another reaction vid to Sohyang lololol stop spreading hate!!!!!! If you don't like her just click off and leave her alone. No ones forcing you to. Why do you purposely search her vids and leave comments if you say u don't enjoy her singing 😂
Sue Y
Then tell to so hyang stans in your video, to stop spreading lies and stop humiliating regine , im aware dahling .so you can't blame me....
Perhaps there's a way for you to put the fun facts as subtitles so that you don't have to cut away from the video when they come up to make the flow of the video easier
I think her jaw tension is probably from her bout of cancer when she was 20 or so. If it is, it's doubtless earned honestly from all the pain and stress she suffered. From comments I've heard on RUclips, she almost fell over backstage after this performance due to all the emotion she poured into it. There are lengthier versions of this performance that show her exhaustion backstage. It is the same with her performance of Arirang. The Vimeo version of Arirang show her collapsing into a chair with her tongue hanging out backstage. She seems to have a great sense of humour about it all!
오 굿
다시시작하자요
Please, react to Kim JinHo Saldaga 🙏🙏🙏🙏
So Hyang n'est pas connue internationalement. Lol
L'occident n'a pas détecté ou voulu croire en cette diva sud-coréenne.
Incroyable !
Incroyable !
Nous sommes aveuglés par notre suffisance.
The denver cruz guy is hunting for Sohyang's stans haha he told me that i am delusional for commenting "you're trippin bro"😂
He's just another FAILipino wasting time and effort to attack Sohyang. No different from Amira fans from Denmark, but Amira is quite awful in terms of vocal qualities and techniques.
Watch Regine Velasquez a true Asia Pacific vocal champion and genuine superstar in Asia Region dubbed as Asia’s Songbird. She works with best singer songwriter in the world with the likes of Alicia Keys Brian McKnight Michel Legrand Peabo Bryson etc
So Hyang is a cancer survivor from the age of 20, cervical cancer, and no doubt if she grinds her teeth at night, she comes by it honestly.
가자요 소향노래 사랑해요 💜 💜 아미도왔어요
One thing i want to tell you is that Korean doesn't use thin and high whistle such as 5octaves.
Usually use thick and powerful whistle such as 4octaves
i hope people wont get confuse over this but the 5 octave in korea is 7th octave in general they always minus 2 octaves
We use c5 to 3oc do
Did you understand?
Mmm...I donot know it is just for Korea, but we using a term c5 for 3옥타브 도, d5 for 3옥타브 레
Carl who comment to me told already for this question.^^
Anyway I was not wrong.
And some of Korean vocal trainer said she has whistle tone when she using few high note.
C#6 or over E6 she use whistle technique and that sound more powerful. But this opinion is different between many people.
One thing exact is Sohyang does not use whistle nowaday.
But what I want to say is Korean almost does not use whistle including Sohyang. So I do not like people comparing Sohyang's vocal range to the other singers who use whistle range
@@whatthell I revised my comment hh
Can you check it please?
@@whatthell I already know you do not want to say she is bad. But what I'm saying is just Korean almost doesnt use whistle. And i felt Sohyang use whistle technique little when she use headvoice. I felt sometimes a little whistle ton(not 100per) when she notes some E6 to A6(not all) but may not for you. And i know vocal range is nothing. So i said i want people to not compare vocal range to lower Sohyang.
Anyway in first, i did not intend to mention Sohyang's whistle, for all Korean.
And we substract 2octaves because our octave standard is piano's middle octave.
그렘린 그사람 또 오겠지...?...
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Please react to little mix paper penthouse.
Can you react to Aliee (i will always love u)live performence too.also chen&baekhyun(exo)live performing of( really i dont know)..thanks
I see you're already getting lots of Sohyang reaction requests, but I really hope you do her version of 'Fate.' It's a song that doesn't have crazy Bb5s but it really showcases her stamina and play with dynamics. She sings certain syllables like a cry. It's a song that is very yearning. Because I love it so much, I'm recommending it separately from the long lists haha. ruclips.net/video/6KILdYQRyWM/видео.html
Edit: Here's another version of her singing 'Fate.' It is much lower quality audio that slightly harms the pitch and not so good for analytical purposes but I love it just as much: ruclips.net/video/-cMvgrmp6s0/видео.html
Whether or not the singer's voice is more because of hard work, often practicing, discipline, and of course giving from God, but it has nothing to do with embracing a particular religion, music and songs are universal, anyone can sing whatever the type of song.
STARTTime... 소감 훌륭합니다. 고맙 !! 🌉...
He start like a commercial
I really like your reactions and explanations, but the fun fact breaks are very distracting, maybe you could flash them on a side of the screen without interrupting the song.
Daniel Valencia
He has to because of possible copyright infringement.
Don't cut the video for the fact pls 😂😭
I don’t cut the video for the facts ... I cut it so it doesn’t get blocked. The facts are the least disruptive but still interesting way to break it up that I could think of. I get it - not my favorite either. Wish I didn’t have to
Dr. Marc Reynolds I see! Thanks for the information
You cant help those itches 😅
I think she is up there with Dimash. The best. Superb.
I just wanted to comment that there's something slightly weird sounding with the audio on this video. I can't quite tell what it is. It sounds just slightly muffled and like there might be 2 audio sources being overlaid with a slight delay creating a slightly out of phase effect, but I'm not exactly sure if that is what's going on. You might want to look into that and see if you can find something in your recording setup that might be causing that.
Will do.
Oh wow, thanks for the quick reply. I enjoy that you focus a lot on the analysis, even though I can hardly hold a tune. Good luck with everything.
Bobbias I always appreciate someone who’s trying to help me improve my product. Thanks for watching!
@@DrMarcReynolds No problem, I wish I could give more concrete advice on how to improve the audio.
