    This event was in 2015, when she was 37 years old. So Hyang is a 45 year old devout Christian and gospel singer from South Korea. In her early 20's and newly married, she was diagnosed with early stage uterine cancer, which left her unable to have children. Upon receiving a healing from God, So Hyang's goal has been to use her voice to bring comfort to people who are experiencing difficult times. She is not motivated by either money or fame. She has rejected numerous offers from major record labels. She does not own any social media platforms and she is happy others share her music on KZread, Vimeo, etc. In addition to being a published author of several fiction books, So Hyang lectures about song and vocal technique at a South Korean university. This humble, amazing woman can sing any genre of music, including rock and rap music.

    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 five languages: Korean, English, French, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading 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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppmTrpuolsu7pJs.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 45 on April 5, 2023, though in Korean culture she would be 46 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 KZread. Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on KZread 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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6WZp8FqnrOTe84.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 KZread: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmiJ26uGm8ffZLA.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. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKBhzLpym6XZddY.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.) So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no 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 KZread, 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”: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dWqdqsptqaXec9I.html Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqaCzbiLoq6dj6w.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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eaqnyaWlnMa0gKg.html Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKiZj9Nsm9jUoJs.html Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448 And finally “Will You Be There”: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oHaYtdKeqLjemc4.html Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gGapwdKmn7remps.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: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iKKEo82rqdXfl7Q.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. 😉

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your reaction to the PHENOMENAL So Hyang ( So Young). Trust and believe, you just witnessed a small sample of the flexibility in her voice. Her vocal range is RIDICULOUS, and her breath control is INSANE. Her technique is FLAWLESS and EFFORTLESS. So Hyang, along with her husband and some assistants, arrange every aspect of her live performances; the music, backing vocals, lighting, staging, etc.) Even when she sings in Korean, it isn't necessary to undetstand the lyrics. So Hyang is brilliant at conveying the message/meaning of the song.

    She is simply the best of the best, an otherworldly singer. So Hyang (pronounced closer to So Young) is truly a vocal monster with MANY of the greatest live performances in the history of music. Her version of 'I Have Nothing' from the DMC Festival, her in a dark blue dress, would have Whitney in awe. So Hyang sings in English and Korean, both with such advanced technique it boggles the mind. Any genre seems to be her domain. She has forgone a life of seeking fame for a life of comforting people with her voice. She has turned down large recording offers due to her faith. I am not religious but this woman is as close to an angel that has ever graced any stage. Hope you enjoy more of her as I see others have given you titles below.

    Thank You Cliff , for a great reaction Video! More then,10 years I have followed this Angel. She is a Amazing Artist , especially live, with God given Gift, Perfect Pitch, Lungs of steel and Thousands of hours training her voice! Top it of with perfect and seamless transition because she has the Best Mixed voice I have ever heard . Yet her Character, heart and Honesty are even more Admirable! At times she says in her life their was nothing she wanted more then to be a Big Star in America/the West, but she was asked by the three Biggest, World Wide Companies and when they came asking she Politely said no ( to several Asian/ Eastern Companies as well! Why? Boils down to God told her she was ready and it would ruin her and her life and Loves, also She needed time for her Gospel Ministry ( to lift the Spirits of those that suffer- a Promise she made when at 20, newly Wed, God saved her from Cancer) and Health ( there was a time only 3 or 4 years ago she has serious lung problems, Pneumonia at least 8 times in less then three years because of a weakened immune system after contracting Hepatitis from bad blood received possible during her cancer surgery ! She has many big production Performance like this and many Simpler Performance, still My favourite number over 20 and still growing as some of her newer or new Stuff is Spectacular! Her Misty Cover is the Best I have heard from any of the Greats. Very simple , perfect setting at the seaside on a Busking TV show made during the Pandemic for TV and a small crowd who entered a draw to go, with masks , social distancing and even in cares like at a drive-Inn ! vimeo.com/464878995 Misty, from, Begin Again Korea( with English subs) Listen to comments of her fellow musicians ( who didn’t know her before this and who all were probably bigger Stars in Korea then she was,at the very end(English subs) Or This cover of You raise me up or this version of ,You Raise Me Up . Released from Hospital and warned not to talk too much and Absolutely no Singing by her Doctor. She sang because she knew people would be there that needed a lift and hope , she would go on to deliver in this heart felt, emotional Performance. In front of Shane from West Life ( who had a huge hit with the song , on a show paying homage to their hits. Unlike anything he had heard before! vimeo.com/269852003

    the QUEEN! Her, Dimash, and Angelina Jordan are THE "extra special" tier. DEFINITELY do "Arirang Alone" and "Everyone" with eng subs..MASTERPIECES! "I have nothing" is a good one to use as a barometer of how much of an "all-timer" she is as well.

    Michael Bolton recently had a concert in Korea, and SOHYANG sang "Oh Holy Night" there, which was so touching. I hope you'll react to the song. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ineGtpOqorHKnKg.html Another song is "Upon this Rock," which she sang as an encore song at the concert. I was there, and the moment I heard that song, I was thrilled. She really is the queen of live performances. kzread.info/dash/bejne/n22btctsqc6cl5M.html The last song is "One Million Roses" which was recently performed on a TV show. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nKCrtcekm5WneJM.html

    great reaction! Sohyang ("so young") is the best singer i have heard. her feel is the only thing that surpasses her unbeatable technique and she is involved in the arrangements. Please check out her singing I Will Always Love You (Begin Again version), Mona Lisa (King of Masked Singer), I Have Nothing, If I Aint Got You, Will You Be There (2010 version when she was just 32 years old) and One Million Roses (2023 now that she is 45 years young). also Arirang Alone, Misty (Begin Again version) You Raise Me Up, Day Day, Her own song Stay, etc.

You can feel her big heart coming through in all of her performances. I would highly recommend you react to: Arirang Alone, Lean on Me, You Raise Me Up, Never Enough and Everyone. Best of luck with your channel.

    Cliff, I'm a bit late, but thought I'd chime in. Tom and Todd have given you a wealth of information - follow their lead, they are experts on this beautiful lady's life and times. Her stage name is Sohyang. The nearest English speakers can come to pronouncing her stage name is 'Soyong'. Her full name is Kim So Hyang. Surnames are always given first in Korean culture. My favorite performance is "I have Nothing" at the 'DMC Festival 2015'. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmiJ26uGm8ffZLA.html Please put this on your short list of reaction videos. Cheers.

    Kim, So-hyang (김소향) is a South Korean singer. Her stage name is Sohyang (소향). She's up there with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Céline Dion, according to David Foster, who worked with all of them, plus other big names in the music industry, such as Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, and Michael Jackson. In fact, many vocal coaches and critics call her the Queen, and Dimash the King. Here are several links to excellent performances by Sohyang. Many are from competitions where she pulls out all the stops and goes into vocal beast mode. The last 5 are more restrained. You can alternate between the styles, just to experience the contrasts and see her range of abilities. All are live, except for a music video of "Never Enough" (since we can never get enough of Sohyang). DMC Festival: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmiJ26uGm8ffZLA.html "I Have Nothing" [Whitney Houston] kzread.info/dash/bejne/dXqotLeMgNvJkdY.html (camera only on Sohyang) kzread.info/dash/bejne/oGtlx6uQgtCrpLw.html "Dream" [Sohyang] {Korean} Immortal Songs 2: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dWqdqsptqaXec9I.html "Bridge Over Troubled Water" [Simon & Garfunkel] kzread.info/dash/bejne/rHqt0MaEabm1c84.html "Arirang Alone" [traditional Korean folksong, lyrics adapted for reunification of North & South Koreas] {Korean} kzread.info/dash/bejne/eaqnyaWlnMa0gKg.html "Lean On Me" [Bill Withers, Jr.; Michael Bolton guest] kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppmTrpuolsu7pJs.html "You Raise Me Up" [Secret Garden; Shane Filan (Westlife) guest] kzread.info/dash/bejne/emmZma-Josidmbw.html "Everyone" {Korean, English} I Am A Singer 2: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6ubqJWAqc_bXZM.html "O Holy Night" [Adolphe Charles Adam] King of Masked Singers: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k5OgsaOgpMydiLQ.html "모나리자 (Mona Lisa)" [조용필 (Cho, Yong-pil)] {Korean, English} kzread.info/dash/bejne/YqV2tbKJmZarg7A.html "Home (집)" [박효신 (Park, Hyo-shin)] {Korean, English} Begin Again Korea: kzread.info/dash/bejne/noeuxJiaYLPRgbg.html "Flashlight" with Lee Suhyun [Jessie J] kzread.info/dash/bejne/kZ2q2NKEY7iznNo.html "Misty" [Ella Fitzgerald] kzread.info/dash/bejne/doNslpd-obiZlag.html "I Will Always Love You" [Dolly Parton] kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWmL06mCgM3XpMY.html "Never Enough" [Loren Allred] Open Concert: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qI6tq8aogrWxdtI.html "The Power of Love" [Jennifer Rush] BTW, Whitney's former manager saw the DMC Festival video of Sohyang singing "I Have Nothing", and contacted Oprah Winfrey, who in turn, contacted David Foster. They were all amazed. He invited her to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. Foster co-wrote that song. He arranged and produced it for Whitney for her album, and her performance in "The Bodyguard". Foster has won 16 Grammy Awards, including 3 for Producer of the Year, and has been nominated a total of 47 times.
