All of Koreans who heard this song were astonished because the original song was totally not like this. And Forestella said they did their 200% best because that time was right after their competition and the best chance to show who they are. So you can see the hard determination on their faces. Thank you for reaction and always enjoying it!
In fact, this song was released in the 1940s. The movie that you mentioned was released in 2001, and the title of this movie was actually taken from this song, and the OST was also inserted as a remake.
This was AWESOME! I LOVE reactions to Forestella and when I think I've seen them ALL, I get pleasantly surprised 😮 Could you please provide the link to this performance? It's not your fault RUclips makes you block the video but after your great reactions, your subscribers would also like to watch the whole video. 😊👍 Thanks again! You guys are personal faves of mine! ❤❤❤
If you are interested in Forestella's performance for Immortal Songs 2, here is a compilation of their performances ruclips.net/video/m-05sS3l62A/видео.htmlfeature=shared. This song is the first performance.
Been watching immortal songs for sometime now and Oh when i know they are on the show everytime? I watch them. I live for them.. Them, La Poem and Forte di Quattro❤
This is live. Musicians are usually hidden at the side or at the back of the stage. #forestella was mentioned to be practice a holic to the point of exhausting their accompaniment😂😂😂 the hosts of the program mentioned it in one of their shows.
gumo...부산에 있는 산 으로 금오산...금오 마운틴.... ㅎㅎㅎㅎ 한국말 잘하시네요... 베이스 고우림(팀의 막내) 11월 15일 군대 갑니다 한국의 남자들은 병역의 의무가 있습니다 4주간 훈련뒤 군 군악대에서 의무를 다할것입니다 복무기간은 18개월 입니다. 예전 섬임들은 3년의 의무를 가졌지만 지금은 절반으로 축소... 제일 막내가 제일먼저 결혼했고, 맏형이 5월에 했습니다 둘째 강형호는 상남자 답게 공개연얘를 한다고 애초에 밝혔고 세째인 조민규만 솔로 입니다. 고우림의 군생활을 웅원해 주세요. 유쾌하며 지식높은 두분의 리액션 늘 잘 보고 있습니다 감사합니다 ❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
이곡은 1940년 발표된 고전명곡입니다 당시에도 최고로 히트했고 지금까지 많은 가수들과 국민들이 애창하였습니다 포레스텔라가 편곡해서 부른 "신라의달밤"은 정말 감동 이었고 완전 새롭게 들렸습니다 감탄하며 박수가 저절로 나는 훌륭한 명곡으로 재탄생하였습니다 훌륭한 목소리들과 하모니로 훌륭한 무대를 보여주었습니다👍👍👍🤗💕👏👏👏
Our beloved bass Ko Woorim is now called for the compulsory military service starting next month. Wish he is well and safe in the army. We’ll miss him very much.
another awesome performance by forestella! two days ago, ko woo rim announced that he will be enlisting for his mandatory military service by november 20. so he would not be able to perform with forestella until 2025. forestella won't be forestella without ko woo rim. 😞 that said, have you seen the video of ko woo rim singing "autumn leaves" in french? it's on his official youtube channel.
Silla's Moonlit Night is a very famous and legendary song in Korea. (The song has nothing to do with the movie) Because this song was sung by the 'master' Hyeon-in with his own unique vibe, no one has been able to imitate it for 70 years. (Because Koreans greatly respect Hyeon-in and love this song, the challenger has an obligation to show a high level of perfection. So reinterpreting this song is a very risky adventure.) However, Forestella succeeded greatly in this challenge. They achieved 'respect' for hyeon-in and their own 'success' at the same time. So everyone was very surprised and moved by this impossible mission. (Silla is one of Korea's ancient states and existed for 1,000 years.)
I always enjoy seeing your reactions❤❤I recommend forestella's in un’ altra vita. This song was sung in the finals before the group debuted. It is a song that conveys emotion with excellent harmony, and has deep meaning for both the fans and the singer. I also recommend angel and 달하노피곰도다샤.
highly recommend 배두훈 bae doo hoon's (aka father's) cover of lay me down. there's concert versions and there's also a version of him singing it in a more casual setting during one of their vlives (my personal fave even though he didn't sing the ending)
Wow! What a twist to this Korean folk song! Once again, they kept the original but at the same time a totally new! It doesn’t make any sense but it does because that’s what Forestella does! 👏💕
Loved your reaction to Forestella as always! Please check out their solo performances, including Doohoon (who’s my fav and seems to be yours too!) covering “Lay Me Down” and “Say Something,” Woorim with “Stars” from Les Mis, Mingyu with “Balada para un loco,” and Hyungho with “Phantom of the opera.”
이것은 포레스텔라가 불후의 명곡에 첫번째로 등장했을 때입니다. 그래서 그들의 자세가 조금 딱딱하죠. 다음 곡으로 '그리운 얼굴'은 어떻습니까? 이 공연에서 볼 만한 것은 관객들입니다.^^ 공연이 끝나고 나서 모두들 충격받은 표정으로 얼어 있었죠. 그리고 조금 뒤 환호하며 박수를 쳤습니다. 저는 그 장면이 인상 깊었어요.
To understand the lyrics of this song, you need a bit of historical background. Shilla (or Silla) was one of the three kingdoms during the "Three Kingdoms Era" in Korean history. So this song is reminiscing about that era - and about Shilla in particular.

I really love how you react to Forestella…thank you because you discover them…check also the song CHAMPIONS sung by them also…really you will like this👍💚⭐️
Nunca, nunca, nunca ne cansaré de escucharlos una y otra vez, y siempre me provocan las mismas emociones, caray, si radicara en corea tendría mas oportunidad de ir a un concierto, por favor apoyarlos para que sean mundialmente conocidos.
The one with deep voice is the youngest he’s 95 liner I couldn’t believe it when i first knew haha but his real personality out of stage is actually cute
Btw a sad news is that woorim (the one with the deep voice) is gonna enlist in the military in November 🥺 so we may not see them 4 as a group for some time 😢
This song is … -Not movie ost. -The original song was from the 1940s -Silla is the name of an old country more than 1,000 years ago -The original song is simple, but Forestella's arrangement expresses the content more magnificently -Forestella's First Performance in the Immortal Songs 😊
This article is my subjective analysis of Forestella's reinterpretation of this song. Part 1: A traditional string instrument and harp symbolizing the moonlight illuminating the foot of a mountain deep at night. (Eastern and Western instruments blend wonderfully, which suggests that Forestella is a crossover group) Emphasizing the lyrical atmosphere, leggiero tenor (Min-gyu Cho) begins the first verse. lyrics : Ah, Silla's night “I can hear the bells of Bulguk-sa Temple.” “Traveller, stop moving.” Let's stand at the foot of Geumosan Mountain under the quiet moonlight and sing a song. Silla's song of the night. Commentary: 'The traveler was passing through a road at the foot of Geumosan Mountain in 'Gyeong-ju' in the middle of the night. At this time, someone's voice calls out to the traveler in the moonlight. It's a ghost (bass). The ghost stayed here lonely for 1000 years, waiting for someone to listen to his old story.' * ‘Song’ means ‘poetry’. Interestingly, Forestella interpreted this song theatrically. The three tenors represent the traveler (Cho Min-gyu), the moonlight (Kang Hyeong-ho), and the narrator (Bae Doo-hoon). So, ‘Traveler’ (leggiero tenor Cho Min-gyu) starts by singing the first verse, ‘Moonlight’ (countertenor Kang Hyeong-ho) follows the traveler with a beautiful voice and adds subtle harmony. ‘Ghost’ (bass Go Woo-rim) makes a solemn sound like ‘Don Giovanni’s Ghost’. The ‘narrator’ (dramatic tenor Bae Doo-hoon) emphasizes the chorus. guide : 'Bulguk-sa' is a 'Buddhist temple (=sa)' located in 'Gyeongju', the capital of Silla Kingdom. (The bell ringing in the temple at night means the time (alarm)) 'Geumo-san' is a beautiful mountain(=san) in 'Gyeong-ju'. Part 2: The moonlight (counterrunner - Kang Hyeong-ho) shines sharply reflected on the ghost's spear blade, and string instruments play in staccato to represent the sound of drums announcing the start of the battle. The story of Ghost (Bass)’s past begins.
Ah, Silla's night “Old memories of Hwarang-do come to mind clearly.” “The blue river flows, the bells never end.” Let’s sing as we trace the places where 1,000 years of splendid history have disappeared. Silla's song of the night.
Commentary: 'The ghost of Hwarang, who died in battle, talks about the glorious memories of the old Silla Kingdom. Travelers listen to ghosts' stories for a long time.' Information: ‘Hwarang-do’ is an elite warrior unit made up of young sons of Silla nobles. They were treated as ‘idols of war’ in Silla society. This organization (=do) was well-versed in academics and martial arts, had beautiful appearances, and had a very strong sense of loyalty. They always fought on the front lines during wars. And sometimes, they performed ‘impossible missions’. There were very strict rules in Hwarang-do, one of which was 'never retreat from battle.' So when they went into battle, they either won or died. They had the custom of putting on beautiful makeup before going into battle. (Because it could be your last battle) Thanks to Hwarang-do's brilliant performance, Silla was able to establish a unified nation in Korea for the first time. Interestingly, Forestella expressed ‘Silla’s Moonlit Night’ as if it were a short play. It reminds me of Schubert's 'Erlkonig'. Also, in the last verse, they sing each word with a strong staccato, showing 'respect' by classically expressing 'master' Hyeon-in's unique vibe. Lastly, what is interesting is that in Part 2, Forestella is compared to ‘Hwarang-do’. On the 'battlefield' called the stage, they are as beautiful as 'Hwarang-do' sent into battle, have great talent, and are filled with solemn determination. (Win or die) Reinterpreting this legendary song was like taking on an 'impossible mission'. They finally succeed in finishing the song (battle) and receiving applause and cheers from the crowd. Viva! Forestella!
There is so much work and effort that goes into this from the team: vocalists, musicians, composers and arrangers. I wish Forestella puts out an explanation video after each of their masterpieces. I am sure the viewers will relate to the song better. Especially non- Korean’s who are unaware of Korean history. An explanation video for their original m/v’s will also help.
Thanks for listening and reacting to Forestella. Just wanted to let you know that you must listen to two songs sung by Min Kyu Cho, the leader of forestella. It is in Spanish and it shows why he is the leader of this group made up of four fantastic talents. One is "Balada Para un Loco" from KBS open concert and the other is "Balada De La Trumpeta" on JTBC Phantom Singer 4 All Star concert. Even if you don't react on RUclips, please listen to them because I know you two really love and have knowledge and appreciation for music, and trust me you will understand what I am saying. Love you guys
I have no idea how, when, and where, but I knew Besame Mucho since I was a little kid. Perhaps the original Korean singer was the reason why. I believe it's not just me. I would say all... most (30 and above?) of Koreans are familiar with Besame Mucho. They would at least recognize it right away if they hear the melody for like two seconds, though they might not know who sang it. It's been a minute, but now, all grown up, I play the song myself for the first time. I see why 7, 8 years old kid picked it up somewhere and never forgotten it. It's just a great song. It sounds mas "besame mucho" 🎉😂
this is such a different take on a very old trot song.Listeh to what it ususally sounds like. Performed by Cho Myong Seop recently, and the original famous version by Hyun In ruclips.net/video/_qBVh8Lr7YI/видео.html
한국의 전통 가요 트로트가수 조명섭이 정말 잘불렀습니다 "신라의 달밤" 제가 포레스텔라의 팬이 되기전 한동안 조명섭에 매료되었었지요 지금도 좋아합니다 🤗 조명섭의 신라의달밤도 추천합니다 👍👍👍 조명섭이 부른 트로트곡들 모두 좋아요 추천합니다 조명섭의 유튜브 공식채널이 있지요 조명섭TV

Two years ago you reacted to the singer Gabriel Henrique singing I have nothing! He participated in this season of American Got Talent, if you can react to him again! there's the audition on agt and the semi final song something beautiful jacob banks! I'll wait for your reaction! thanks.
Por Dios, cómo juegan con mis emociones, Forestella en otro nivel, subliminal. ❤❤, creo que bajaron del cielo.
INNER UNIVERSE pleeeas 🙏 Thank you for amazing reaction ❤
Shinla is one of country. 2000years ago. Korea was 3 countries in that time(bc57-935)
Almost 1000years.
All of Koreans who heard this song were astonished because the original song was totally not like this. And Forestella said they did their 200% best because that time was right after their competition and the best chance to show who they are. So you can see the hard determination on their faces.

The movie that you mentioned was released in 2001, and the title of this movie was actually taken from this song, and the OST was also inserted as a remake.
이 분들 넘 귀여우심
구독할거야
한국사람들은 이 곡의 원곡이 어떤 곡인지 알기 때문에 이 곡을 들었을 때 넘 놀랐었지요. 원곡도 한국사람들의 정서를 잘 담고 있는 명곡이지만, 오래된 곡이라 요즘 젊은 사람들은 잘 안 듣는데, 포레스텔라가 완전히 다른 장르로 편곡했지요.
This was their first performance on Immortal Songs, right?
@@3173alejandramartz네 맞습니다!!^^
What I really love about this song is you can really hear Woorim the bass bringing out his opera in this song.
This was AWESOME! I LOVE reactions to Forestella and when I think I've seen them ALL, I get pleasantly surprised 😮 Could you please provide the link to this performance?

The lyrics of korean oldies are very poetic. Shila in the country existed in Korean land a couple of thousand years ago.

멋진설명 정말 감사드립니다 👍🤗💕🙇♀️🙆♀️
Amo este tema que habla y conmemora el antíguo estado de Corea. Lo que interpreta FORESTELLA es sublime😢😢😢😢😢han puesto el corazón 🌴🌴🌴🌴🌠🌠🌠🌠🇦🇷
I always enjoy seeing your reactions❤❤I recommend forestella's in un’ altra vita. This song was sung in the finals before the group debuted. It is a song that conveys emotion with excellent harmony, and has deep meaning for both the fans and the singer.
I also recommend angel and 달하노피곰도다샤.
두분의 Forestella 리액션을 볼때마다 제가 함박웃음을 짓고 있네요. 너무 좋아서요 ❤ 자주 뵈어서 너무 좋습니다.
highly recommend 배두훈 bae doo hoon's (aka father's) cover of lay me down. there's concert versions and there's also a version of him singing it in a more casual setting during one of their vlives (my personal fave even though he didn't sing the ending)
이 곡의 원곡을 부른 현인님은 실제로 번안곡도 많이 부르셨죠
베싸메무쵸 뿐만 아니라 이분은 정말 맛나게 부르셨어요
Wow! What a twist to this Korean folk song! Once again, they kept the original but at the same time a totally new! It doesn’t make any sense but it does because that’s what Forestella does! 👏💕
Intricate, masterfully done! ❤❤❤❤
리액션해 주시다니 고마워요 😄 ❤
Loved your reaction to Forestella as always! Please check out their solo performances, including Doohoon (who’s my fav and seems to be yours too!) covering “Lay Me Down” and “Say Something,” Woorim with “Stars” from Les Mis, Mingyu with “Balada para un loco,” and Hyungho with “Phantom of the opera.”
멤버들 솔로곡 영상 저도 강력추천합니다👍👍👍🤗👏👏👏
너무 좋아요❤
이것은 포레스텔라가 불후의 명곡에 첫번째로 등장했을 때입니다. 그래서 그들의 자세가 조금 딱딱하죠.
다음 곡으로 '그리운 얼굴'은 어떻습니까?
이 공연에서 볼 만한 것은 관객들입니다.^^
공연이 끝나고 나서 모두들 충격받은 표정으로 얼어 있었죠.
그리고 조금 뒤 환호하며 박수를 쳤습니다. 저는 그 장면이 인상 깊었어요.
To understand the lyrics of this song, you need a bit of historical background. Shilla (or Silla) was one of the three kingdoms during the "Three Kingdoms Era" in Korean history. So this song is reminiscing about that era - and about Shilla in particular.
TOGETHER:
Oh, the night in Shilla
MIN GYU CHO:
The sound of ringing bell in Bul Guk Temple (or Bul Guk Sa - Sa means temple),
TOGETHER:
It travels to my ears
WOO RIM KO:
Oh the passing traveler,
Come to a halt.
DOO HOON BAE:
From the foot of silent and moonlit Guem Oh Mountain (or Guem Oh San - San means Mountain),
HYUNG HO KANG:
Let's sing a tune,
WOO RIM KO:
The Song of Night of Shilla,
TOGETHER:
Oh, the night of Shilla,
WOO RIM KO:
The recollections of the spirit of Hwa Rang* are anew
(*Hwa Rang - they were trained elite soldiers in Shilla - Being a Hwa Rang meant a great deal to the people of Shilla - it gave them a certain social status)
MIN GYU CHO:
Oh the ever-flowing turquoise river,
MIN GYU CHO & HYUNG HO KANG:
And the everlasting sound of the ringing bell
DOO HOON BAE:
Oh the glorious
DOO HOON BAE & HYUNG HO KANG
Thousand-year dynasty
WOO RIM KO & DOO HOON BAE
Revisiting the steps of their journey,
TOGETHER:
Let's sing a tune,
The Song of Night of Shilla,
From the foot of silent and moonlit Guem Oh Mountain
Let's sing a tune,
The Song of Night of Shilla,
Let's sing a tune,
The Song of Night of Shilla,
Oh, the night of Shilla!
👍👍👍🤗💕👏👏👏
❤❤
Muchas gracias, que hermosa canción, ahora entiendo los gestos, ademanes y rostros emocionados.
Mahalo for the step by step translation and who’s singing each part. I appreciate it so much!

Nunca, nunca, nunca ne cansaré de escucharlos una y otra vez, y siempre me provocan las mismas emociones, caray, si radicara en corea tendría mas oportunidad de ir a un concierto, por favor apoyarlos para que sean mundialmente conocidos.
The one with deep voice is the youngest he’s 95 liner I couldn’t believe it when i first knew haha but his real personality out of stage is actually cute

일제 강점기때 광복을 바라면서 작사한곡입니다..
This song is …
-Not movie ost.
-The original song was from the 1940s
-Silla is the name of an old country more than 1,000 years ago
-The original song is simple, but Forestella's arrangement expresses the content more magnificently
-Forestella's First Performance in the Immortal Songs 😊
한편의 대서사시로 만든 '신라의 달밤'. .완전 쇼킹이었죠! 감사합니다!
This article is my subjective analysis of Forestella's reinterpretation of this song.
Part 1: A traditional string instrument and harp symbolizing the moonlight illuminating the foot of a mountain deep at night. (Eastern and Western instruments blend wonderfully, which suggests that Forestella is a crossover group)
Emphasizing the lyrical atmosphere, leggiero tenor (Min-gyu Cho) begins the first verse.
lyrics :
Ah, Silla's night
“I can hear the bells of Bulguk-sa Temple.”
“Traveller, stop moving.”
Let's stand at the foot of Geumosan Mountain under the quiet moonlight and sing a song.
Silla's song of the night.
Commentary: 'The traveler was passing through a road at the foot of Geumosan Mountain in 'Gyeong-ju' in the middle of the night. At this time, someone's voice calls out to the traveler in the moonlight. It's a ghost (bass).
The ghost stayed here lonely for 1000 years, waiting for someone to listen to his old story.'
* ‘Song’ means ‘poetry’.
Interestingly, Forestella interpreted this song theatrically. The three tenors represent the traveler (Cho Min-gyu), the moonlight (Kang Hyeong-ho), and the narrator (Bae Doo-hoon).
So, ‘Traveler’ (leggiero tenor Cho Min-gyu) starts by singing the first verse,
‘Moonlight’ (countertenor Kang Hyeong-ho) follows the traveler with a beautiful voice and adds subtle harmony.
‘Ghost’ (bass Go Woo-rim) makes a solemn sound like ‘Don Giovanni’s Ghost’.
The ‘narrator’ (dramatic tenor Bae Doo-hoon) emphasizes the chorus.
guide :
'Bulguk-sa' is a 'Buddhist temple (=sa)' located in 'Gyeongju', the capital of Silla Kingdom. (The bell ringing in the temple at night means the time (alarm))
'Geumo-san' is a beautiful mountain(=san) in 'Gyeong-ju'.
Part 2: The moonlight (counterrunner - Kang Hyeong-ho) shines sharply reflected on the ghost's spear blade, and string instruments play in staccato to represent the sound of drums announcing the start of the battle. The story of Ghost (Bass)’s past begins.
Ah, Silla's night
“Old memories of Hwarang-do come to mind clearly.”
“The blue river flows, the bells never end.”
Let’s sing as we trace the places where 1,000 years of splendid history have disappeared.
Silla's song of the night.
Commentary: 'The ghost of Hwarang, who died in battle, talks about the glorious memories of the old Silla Kingdom. Travelers listen to ghosts' stories for a long time.'
Information: ‘Hwarang-do’ is an elite warrior unit made up of young sons of Silla nobles. They were treated as ‘idols of war’ in Silla society.
This organization (=do) was well-versed in academics and martial arts, had beautiful appearances, and had a very strong sense of loyalty. They always fought on the front lines during wars. And sometimes, they performed ‘impossible missions’.
There were very strict rules in Hwarang-do, one of which was 'never retreat from battle.' So when they went into battle, they either won or died. They had the custom of putting on beautiful makeup before going into battle. (Because it could be your last battle)
Thanks to Hwarang-do's brilliant performance, Silla was able to establish a unified nation in Korea for the first time.
Interestingly, Forestella expressed ‘Silla’s Moonlit Night’ as if it were a short play. It reminds me of Schubert's 'Erlkonig'.
Also, in the last verse, they sing each word with a strong staccato, showing 'respect' by classically expressing 'master' Hyeon-in's unique vibe.
Lastly, what is interesting is that in Part 2, Forestella is compared to ‘Hwarang-do’.
On the 'battlefield' called the stage, they are as beautiful as 'Hwarang-do' sent into battle, have great talent, and are filled with solemn determination. (Win or die)
Reinterpreting this legendary song was like taking on an 'impossible mission'.
They finally succeed in finishing the song (battle) and receiving applause and cheers from the crowd.
Viva! Forestella!
There is so much work and effort that goes into this from the team: vocalists, musicians, composers and arrangers.
I wish Forestella puts out an explanation video after each of their masterpieces. I am sure the viewers will relate to the song better. Especially non- Korean’s who are unaware of Korean history.
An explanation video for their original m/v’s will also help.
Oh so professional...
리액션 감사합니다 ~~포레는 사랑입니다 💕 😍 ❤️
Thanks for listening and reacting to Forestella. Just wanted to let you know that you must listen to two songs sung by Min Kyu Cho, the leader of forestella. It is in Spanish and it shows why he is the leader of this group made up of four fantastic talents. One is "Balada Para un Loco" from KBS open concert and the other is "Balada De La Trumpeta" on JTBC Phantom Singer 4 All Star concert. Even if you don't react on RUclips, please listen to them because I know you two really love and have knowledge and appreciation for music, and trust me you will understand what I am saying. Love you guys
Thank you ❤ please check next "Parla più piano " or " Face that I miss "🙏🥹

I have no idea how, when, and where, but I knew Besame Mucho since I was a little kid. Perhaps the original Korean singer was the reason why. I believe it's not just me. I would say all... most (30 and above?) of Koreans are familiar with Besame Mucho. They would at least recognize it right away if they hear the melody for like two seconds, though they might not know who sang it. It's been a minute, but now, all grown up, I play the song myself for the first time. I see why 7, 8 years old kid picked it up somewhere and never forgotten it. It's just a great song. It sounds mas "besame mucho" 🎉😂
this is such a different take on a very old trot song.Listeh to what it ususally sounds like. Performed by Cho Myong Seop recently, and the original famous version by Hyun In ruclips.net/video/_qBVh8Lr7YI/видео.html
한국의 전통 가요 트로트가수 조명섭이 정말 잘불렀습니다 "신라의 달밤" 제가 포레스텔라의 팬이 되기전 한동안 조명섭에 매료되었었지요 지금도 좋아합니다 🤗 조명섭의 신라의달밤도 추천합니다 👍👍👍 조명섭이 부른 트로트곡들 모두 좋아요 추천합니다 조명섭의 유튜브 공식채널이 있지요 조명섭TV
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😱😱😱😱😱😱👍👍👍👍👍👍
가사의 의미를 알고 해석하면 더 좋은 포레스텔라입니다 역사적으로 신라 국가는 웅장하고 화려합니다 화랑도는 용맹한 청소년 수련 단체에요 불고기 떡볶이를 알고 있어서 놀랐습니다 한국음식 먹방도 궁금하네요 리액션에서 탐구력과 호기심이 멋지고 다음 리액션이 더 궁금해집니다
Could you please put the link for that song in the description, thank you!

I’m not sure why, but my comment got deleted three times. Perhaps YT doesn't allow it to put links anymore. I hope this gets to you.

It's pronounced Sheella. :) S+i in Korean will result in "sh".
