It is a Korean ballad and a favorite singer of Koreans. I used to listen to this song together at that time, so I still feel comforted by the past love and pain that I buried in my heart even when I get older. It's even better if I translate the lyrics. Thank you for your reaction.

He’s so so so good live! I had the pleasure of watching him in person back in 2016❤

Many foreigners may know this because kpop singers are popular these days, but there are a lot of great singers in Korea. I am sure that kpop has developed today because of them

Impressive reaction! Especially in your mention of Korean ballads having a close association with a negative vibe, I believe you have keenly observed intricate aspects of Korean music. Just as you mentioned, Korean ballads are often composed based on negative emotions. The root cause of these negative sentiments lies in the traditional Korean emotion known as 'Han.' Historically, Korea has faced numerous wars, resulting in emotions such as separation, the division of the nation, farewell, waiting, and resentment, all encompassed within the concept of 'Han.' This emotional essence, rooted in Korea's ancient traditional music and art, seems to have seamlessly blended with the modern genre of ballads (this is my personal perspective). Therefore, until K-pop emerged as the mainstream in Korean music today, ballads resonated well with the emotions of Koreans, playing a significant role in shaping the mainstream of Korean music.

Thank you so much! Yes this makes a lot of sense. I googled it at one point and I realised that's why I don't gravitate to a lot of the ballads.

Nice tying of "Han" to ballads. Simple & clear explanation. I'll use it in future, haha... I would add to say that most East Asian ballad culture is similar (Japan, China, Thai, etc). More rooted in negative emotions but funnily enough when we listen to them, we don't feel them as much, most of the time? Like we just casually listen to these sad-ass songs in the background or sing them in karaoke without that much thought

He is not a kpop singer, he is a pop singer just like Huh gak and Lee Seung Ki or Sohyang, John Park or K. Will or Busker Busker. Different style of music. The problem is that everyone thinks that Koreans only listen to kpop. When you get there, you find out that there are as many styles of music as in the US.

I love kim bumsoo voice. He's best known for ost. He dominated kdrama ost in early 2000. Give a listen to his osts. I bet you will love his voice. Its an honor to see Taeyeon duet with him. Their voice really match well. A beautiful heartbroken song 😅

You should watch his other live songs maybe you will like them more because here they just use the piano so everything seams the same! He’s so good! he’s a legend!!

Two of my absolute favorite performances by him are 1) his performance on fantastic duo with dynamic duo from 2017 and 2) his performance on the show "the call" with BeWhy performing "I Will Be"..he's sooo amazing. Highly recommend those

Oh my god. Didn’t know he has a Killing Voice. His voice is just… 🤌🏾 So many good songs.

Korean ballads and ost's are top-notch and in MY OPINION, one of the best in the world. There are so many great korean songs that many people have never heard. Fortunately, I grew up listening to them. Kim Bum Soo is one of the king of ballads in Korea. He is an amazing singer.

early 2000's were the pinnacle of sad lovd ballad and rock in korea. music charts were dominated by solo vocalists and people were all belting their hearts out in karaokes. there are almost no songs to sing or rather pour my soul out to anymore these days.. 🥲 new jeans is easy on the ears but they're not exactly vocal masterpieces.. anyhoo from the golden era of ballad rose the four legends, kim bumsoo, na ul, park hyoshin, isu, aka. the KIM-NA-PARK-YI

and yes.....that last song, 보고 십다, is either the #1 or #2 most famous/popular korean ballad of all time bar none. If you search Fantastic Duo Missing You (Fantastic Duo was a competition show where professional singers teamed up with everyday folk and competed), that performance is pretty legendary

that first song gave me chills, i listened that track so much in the past!

He is one of top vocalist in korea. There is a term of " *Kim Na Park Lee/Yi* " there. (Kim) Bum Soo, (Na)ul, (Park) Hyo Sin, and (Lee) Su/Isu. These four artists are often put forth by the public in Korea as the best and most representative vocalists in the country.

OMG !!! Just amazing and amazing !!!

Kim Bumsoo, you may live on happiness. Please show us your reaction You won't regret it!

Now that's a revelation to me, wow. I've never enjoyed a ballad this much before.

I recommend you listen to Kim Bumsoo's Leave the Door Open cover song!!!!!

You can't begin to imagine how crazy legendary this song right here is 9:43

King of K Ballad AMEN

kim bum soo actually did bruno mars' leave the door open COVER in his youtube channel! Check it out. He also excels in R&B songs and pop songs!

I haven't seen him for a while and now he's looking like a mad scientist lol Love your videos

in Korea he is part of so-called 4 best established genius singer which is 김나박이 Kim bumsoo, Naul, Park Hyoshin and Isu. Shin Youngjae too was add. No one don't know them in this industry

Thank you for reacting to this video! I highly recommend his 8th album and his cover of "leave the door open"!

​@@Koko3op he sings a song off his new album, a ballad, IU's Through the Night and the duet with Mujin is a more upbeat song. So I guess not completely ballads but mostly ballads

Loved the reaction. Really appreciate your honesty. I've always loved Kim bum soo and am used to hearing his music with other instruments so this was nice to hear only the piano. Fun fact, the piano is played by Melomance piano player. :)

Ohhh good to know!

FYI, in 2013, Kim Bum Soo invited Taeyeon for a special appearance at his concert where they performed his icon song, "Man and Woman." He is Taeyeon's ideal type when it comes to singing. Also, in Korea, there are 4 vocal kings who are collectively called “Kim Na Park Lee” (김나박이), taking the first syllable of the names of these top vocalists in alphabetical order: Kim Bum Soo, Naul, Park Hyo Shin, and Lee Soo. These four artists are often put forth by the public in Korea as the best and most representative vocalists in the country. And Taeyeon worked with 3 of them and was praised by them a lot

Ironically enough, Taeyeon a few weeks ago said Kim Bum Soo was just her type of man. He responded with, "That's what they all say but they never ask me for my phone number" 😭

Haven't watched him in a while. Had no idea his hair was so long now

these are remade version with piano only. Original tracks have many full instruments other than piano

Hi there! I know how much you like dingo killing voices and I would like to know what you think about Ha Hyunwoo's dingo killing voice!! I just discovered his recently and I absolutely love his voice!! XD

I was wondering if you gonna react to this. I personally like him and his music but I remember what you said about listening to only ballads.

Did you know he was this week’s guest on Lee Mujin Service?

I would really recommend Ha dong qn killing voice! He is one of my favs!

Honestly kim was perfect. But the other live is more good for me. Or bcs the intrument that dinggo used only piano or etc. And the og songs makes me fan of him.

i recommend watching the crunchy 2000s clips of him singing live, especially his duets with park hyoshin

I think in asian country lyrics are more prioritized than melody based on the language.

of course, kim na park lee

The first song reminded me of a Christopher Cross song from the 80s called Arthur’s Theme.

Korean visual singer

Please React to Yang Da Il Killing Voice !!!

you would really like sg wannabe

You should react to tvxq killing voice❤❤

Recognized at least 3 or 4 songs because Onew covered them on some programs lol that man is definitely big over there!

wowww its so nice to hear classics

kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYSGlJiieqWvn8Y.htmlsi=QwmSVSLnNFJeYWXM He is one of the four best male singers in Korea, and during auditions, when Kim Bum-soo was the judge, if you sang Kim Bum-soo song, you were 100% eliminated.

27:39 lmaooooo I'm screaming bc I was like idk HOW he's gonna get thru this KV 💀 I waited for you to watch it, but I'm def reading a book rn and other than a few I recognize they could all be the same. Beautiful gowns, beautiful gowns. His voice is stellar but I would also love to hear some variety. As an American, its just in me to need some pop and r&b I guess.

Kim Bum Soo : I Love you " : 그댄 행복에 살텐데.. 강력 추천 합니다.

between KBS and Buzz......there probably isn't a single korean male left who isn't a fan. Fun fact.....in the olden days of korean entertainment, they had this super bad practice of what were called paper bag singers (basically people who were incredible singers but not good looking) that they used as the backup vocals for the pretty people to lip sync to. He was one of those but basically broke through just from his voice alone

I find it crazy that you haven’t watched more of Jimin’s dancing from BTS‼️ I find you all to be too biased to give him his credit where it is due‼️ He is the ONLY dancer in KPOP that is WORLD CLASS AND YET YOU IGNORE HIM‼️ That’s just INSANE AND ABSURD‼️😤
