Sohyang is probably the most brilliant female vocalist alive. Check out her rendition of "I Will Always Love You" to understand her vocal range and styles.
Her rendition is epic her build ups, climaxes and improvisations are masterpieces. Clearly shows how she perceives and values her own tradition and how her pure musical talend can play with it, to give us this lovely result. If you want equivelent brilliant mixes try Song So Hee's "Tearful Tumen River" or her rendition of BTS's "Spring Day"
@citizen x SoHee's "Tearful Tumen River" is a masterpiece as her "Spring Day" cover. Seen her football videos a few times, she is also a fantastic scorer.
Absolutely world class vocalist. You should listen to Sohyang singing 'Everyone'. She sings in a mix of Korean and English and it is an emotional 7.5 minute masterpiece!
Another rabbit hole you can enter into Sohyang who skillfully arranges the music with her music director as well as she song writes and is author of fantasy novels. She has no personal social media site. Her singing and music are very uplifting to comfort and encourage others as her God given ministry. Another dramatic traditional song and singer song is Song SoHee singing Tearful River Dumon.
Like most other traditional folk songs, the majority of the renditions of this song are very simple & ‘ploddy’ but it has only been turned in to this more anthemic version by sohyang’s amazing skill at musical arrangements. You should look up this song by any other artist & see just how different it is. Sohyang’s version was also used by a pair of ice skaters for their free programme in the Winter Olympics ( not sure of the year )
This song is thought to be about 600 years old it is the official unofficial anthem of Korea. It began as a wedding song and it is about a thing so deeply longed for. Arirang is a hill of unification. It has become the song for the unification of the two koreas. I love your reaction and I wanted you to know that she is a cancer survivor and the 20s and she has stated her intention to give comfort to people. The more you see and hear the more you will see this. Thanks a lot for bringing this it's a favorite of mine
I love your reaction ,, If you can afford time to review Sohyang covered "I have nothing" by Whitney, I would love to watch. It is my favorite so far ,,
Nice soft spot to start youre So Hyang voyage. Buckle up and hold on, this is the tip of the So Hyang iceberg. She has a tremendous amount of live video performances each one better than the previous.. Enjoy.
Here is how to pronounce Sohyang. So is just like it sounds in English. But the hyang part is where things change. The h and y are pronounced like we would say Hugh or humongous in English. The ang sounds like ong or ung in English. Sohyang. Two syllables in one word. There you go, ha, ha! Nothing to it! Sohyang is the best female vocalist in the world right now and has been for at least ten years. No one can touch her absolutely beautiful and pitch perfect voice. And then you add in her pleasing and bubbly personality, and you have the complete package. She is currently untouchable by any other female singer on the planet. She re-arranges the music in every song she sings, and it is always gorgeous. Beauty, style and taste. And she isn't even interested in fame or riches, but would rather sing to comfort the sick and needy and raise funds for them through charitable concerts! How do you beat that? This is why we think she may be an alien ... 💘😎😉👌
You are partly correct in how her name is pronounced. You are correct with the name So, but slightly wrong with the other name. The letter H is softer as in the word hat and more emphasis on the y as in the word young. Then followed by a soft a "ah" then a short n sound. The "g" is not pronounced. The G is put there because of tongue position.
Here is So Hyang's drama OST.(2022.6.4.) So Hyang - Vincent (Why Her? 왜 오수재인가?) OST Part.1 MV ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oLKqCJDiRf4.html (official) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dMi3YpB1uGc.html (unofficial) * Story : The painful but exciting story of Oh Soo-jae, a cold and hollow-minded lawyer in pursuit of success, and Gong-chan, a law school student who is not afraid of anything to protect her.
please react to her singing Everyone (she calls it her most challenging performance (it has parts in Korean and English). the range and power and beauty and endurance she displays are unmatched! Also check out Sohyang singing MonaLisa (Masked Singer performance) in which she sings a pop song with such power and emotion that it will knock your socks off
Did you misspeak when you said that this is the first time reacting to So Hyang? I see another thumbnail that you reacted to her rendition of Bridge Over Troubled Waters. Anyhoot, she is the best - literally! There is many more masterpiece performances from her BTW!
@@jhk722 In all fairness, Sohyang is one of those women who is a chameleon. If she changes her hairstyle of hair colour, she looks like a completely different person. Always extremely beautiful but completely different looking.
Nathan if you want to hear something traditional Korean that will move you then listen to the Korean national treasure Ms. Song So-hee singing "Tearful Duman River"

I recommend you listening to "Wildflower" by Park Hyo Shin! He is a Korean singer and is very technically talented. It's about his struggles and difficult living under a harsh company agent and also his closest friend committing suicide.
Her name is said like So HYUNG. Like saying young with the airy H next to the Y. The Y is not like an I, it is a Y sound. The A in the last part is pronounced like a U. So it’s said like SoHYUNG. Even though it is properly spelled as SoHyang. There is a video of her singing the US national anthem at an NBA game, and if you watch it, you will hear the announcer say her name exactly as she says her own name. This song is if the Korea as one country, then going through the war that broke them apart, then the hopes of both the North and S.Korea becoming one again. And the Arirang hill is a place they will meet. Arirang, those r’s, they are said like soft d’s. Listen to her sing it. It’s like adidang.
Been watching your Sohyang reactions. Thought it was time I said something about your pronunciation of her name since you might want to improve. :) Sohyang is 2 syllables not 3. 소 "so' 향 hyang. The H and Y blend together but do not make a 'hi' sound, it is more like 'hyang or hyoung. I hope that helps.
한국에 하나님뜻대로 살고자 발버둥치는 기독교인들이 꽤 있습니다. 그들을 하나님이 기뻐하시고.. 이 대한민국을 하나님께서 빛을 비추시고.. 이 세상에서 빛과 소금의 역활을 하게 하시고 계심을 느끼고 있습니다. 소향도 이중의 하나겠지요~ 소향은 하나님께서 쓰시는 사람입니다. 소향에게 도전을 받습니다. 나도 죽기전에..하나님의 기뻐하는 일을 하며 살다가.. 죽고싶습니다ㅡ
