This kid truly is a blessing

I love to hear IAM sing. He sings from his soul. He has a passion for singing. Glad he was able to gion after experiencing losing his dad. His winning shows what happens when we refuse to give up/quit. He's so humble. "Way to go IAM. I pray that God will continue to be with you, prosper, bless and keep you. Have and enjoy your great life young man.

CONGRATULATIONS IAM YONGI, WE ARE SO PROUD OF U❤❤🎉-, from Philippines

So happy for this beautiful soul of a young man. Congrats to him, his family and friends. I was watching a video of Hawaii recently and what caught my attention was the fact that there was no Hawaiians to be seen. None. I asked in the comment section whether there was still any Hawaiians in Hawaii and this person answered she had seen one Hawaiian. I found that to be a terrible thing to happen. I hope from now on Iam Tongi will help highlight the beautiful Hawaiian culture once again. Congrats buddy. Well deserved.👏👏👏👏

It was amazing to see iam smile he has and I have to say I was in tears at the end of the show when they said next american idol Iam . I just was happy I knew it he would win . most of all we all know that his daddy is smiling in heaven knowing he won ..

Congratulations to him! Love his vibe!!
