But after being impressed by her arrangements in every new cover of her esp. the massive avalanche of masterpieces she dropped in 2020, nowadays I’m just hoping she’s gonna cover as many songs as possible and hopefully most of my personal fav songs are included in there too. She’s too good to be limited by the catalogue of a single or a few songwriters. Period.

"of all of the singers that i have done these reactions to, she's probably the most technically there". Cool

Yes she is tooooo great. I mean, she is THE vocalist of generation.

Queen Sohyang. Thank you so much for remembering her! Edit: Finished watching the video, Sohyang never disappoints #JusticeForSohyang

"Justice for So-hyang!" I myself wondered the same thing when I first heard that she did not win with this powerhouse of a performance. In this Korean singing competition show 'Immortal Songs', the audience members are the judges. Please do forgive the audience members for voting her down after being blessed with her beautiful soul. Justice for So-hyang!

I literally GASPED when I saw this video drop. I was introduced to Sam's channel through his reactions of Sohyang and I've been pondering and waiting for the day when he'd revisit the 👑queen👑 for yearssssss. Absolute blasphemy that Sohyang didn't win the contest smh #JusticeForSohyang (Also REALLY hoping he'll continue reacting to her since she's just SO GOOD. Even once in a while would be a blessing~)

Immortal Songs is not really a contest. The show invites 6 stars in their own genres (pop, traditional Korean, classical, CCM, etc.) who all are paid for their performance to an episode centered on a particular theme. Sohyang has participated in 6 episodes 2014-2018. The studio audience votes on their favorite to make it more interesting but there are no prizes nor advancement to a later round - just bragging rights. This was a special episode inviting singers who had been especially amazing in previous episodes (highest ever score, most career wins etc.) - all 6 performances were very good and several were spectacular. The audience favorite that night was a very popular singer who provided a sweet and flawless but to my mind not jaw-dropping performance.

Thanks for the reaction and analysis. I've been waiting so long for this. Sohyang took us on a rollercoaster ride with this performance. This was arguably the most technically challenging and emotional song she has ever performed. "Next level singing" indeed. She is a phenomenal vocalist and an incredible performer. Thanks again, really enjoyed the reaction.

I can't say how excited I was when I noticed you had reacted to this!! She's my absolute favourite. I so enjoyed watching you react to this, and your analogy was as informative as ever. Great stuff as always Sam. Thanks a lot!

She is one of my favorite singers of all time!

Inter-planetary good! freakin good! She's awesome! Most technically there! Next level singing! Crime against humanity that she didn't win! Justice for Queen SoHyang! Great Reaction & compliments to our Angel from above! Uses her beautiful soothing voice instrument to comfort all of us during these stressful times!! More of her reactions please! Stay Safe!

13:51 “Of all of the singers that I have done these reactions to, she’s probably the most technically there” RESPECT. It annoys me when people downplay someone just to ‘keep everyone happy’ or coz of their obvious af biases. Sure, Best might be pushing it but is it really so hard to admit she’s Second to None? Best live to best live, even fancams to fancams, just how many out there has a track record as impeccable and consistent as her? I honestly don’t know anyone of this generation, and neither have I heard of someone with a significantly better record in the past. So Hyang has worked decades to master her craft and yes, today she’s just That Good. It’s as simple as that. The skill level of a craftsman is never measured by their recognition and sales. Those might glorify it but can’t take away Nothing from it.

YOU NOW NEED TO REACT TO "DREAM" by her.She wrote that song and she shows exactly what you said at the end that the fact she sings in such a high tessitura the whole song and still manages to go higher every time is just mind blowing and her technique has managed to preserve her voice a lot she's now like 42 or 43 even and she can still belt B5s when she wants to lmao that's what good technique does allows you acess to your range at any time within a space of a lot of years

Back to Sohyang- yes! That is the truth, this was an Immortal Songs contest and no she didn't win. It goes on audience vote and whoever is most popular tends to win. Sohyang is well loved in Korea and was easily the best singer there but not as popular as the idols that she was up against.

6:42 .. Yes, Sam! Yes!!!!!! 😭

Thank you so much! She's amazing and thank you for explanations. And yes, it was a contest. She didn't win indeed. For a winner stage, she won with "Lean on me", her first stage there. Michael Bolton invited her on tour afterwards. And about the effect thing. Immortal songs but some effects on. In this performance not much (which can be heard in the fancam which sound still as amazing as this) but they do. To me, it increased over the years. The really old performances of the singers there sounded more raw. Please please check more of her! Interesting would be a calmer piece maybe like "Love Poem" on begin again (it's perfect) or "Misty" (she sang it on concerts and begin again). This is technical perfection there. And seems so easy. ☺️

hii! i love Sohyang so so so much!

I was waiting for this so long!

Interplanetary Great is my new favorite adjective for her, and you nailed it about her superpowers being used to help the storytelling which is what I think those of us die hard fans keep us coming back. A bit disappointed we didn't see crying but since you obviously had to cut some stuff out to evade the copyright police maybe the tears are on the cutting room floor. Thank you so much for your reaction, would love to see you react to her recent acoustic stuff from the Begin Again series including I Will Always Love You, If I Ain't Got You and a ridiculously beautiful ballad Love Poem.

It's really nice seeing how you just genuinely enjoy music

NO JOKE I've been waiting for YEARS for your reaction to this, I literally gasped when I sat the notif!!! Thank you so so much Sam

Imagine Sohyang and Jennifer Hudson singing a gospel tune ! I would just die !

Welcome back and good to see you react to Sohyang's "Everyone". It's been some time. I knew we would get a thorough and technical breakdown from you on Sohyang's singing here but I have to say that it is a disappointment not to see you shed tears here after all your build-up :-) All the vocal terminology terms just roll off your tongue as if you were giving morning greetings. At the risk of being offensive, you come across as the mad professor of vocal pedagogy who spit fire about quantum physics, leaving the audience in awe but resigning to study for two more PHD degrees to catch up later. Listening to your description of Sohyang's singing is like hearing the dialog in the movie "Matrix" describing the sighting of a beautiful woman from the streaking green lights on the monitor :-) It seemed so unreal. However, I do appreciate the affirmation you gave to Sohyang - "Interplanetarily great" is really something. I think you coined a new expression, and how appropriately so. Thanks for making this entertaining reaction video.

This performance was from Immortal Songs 2 Episode 231 if anyone is interested. Immortal Songs 2 is a program where they get singers to compete against each other to gain the votes of 500 member audience. Sohyang lost to the previous singer before her, who had 410 votes. I understand music is subjective but it still blows my mind how she didn't win.

You should understand at that time of 2012 I am a singer2, it was her first debut to mainstream tv show. People almost hadn't heard about her, only musicians and christian listeners knew her. Despite all those disadvantages, she made a record of highest average rank of 1.9 above all singers, which means she won or put in second place almost on every episodes. She might not be the final winner but she was in final top 3 with other most famous vocalists of the country. That's why people in Korea says her as the Queen of competition shows.

♥️Sohyang is my Queen of Singers.... not because she is an insane amazing singer, but she is so great at making the lyrics of the song live and full of authenticity. She sings like every word means something to her personally. Love listening to her!! ♥️
