*Arirang* is the most-beloved Korean folk song. It’s believed to be first sang over 600 years ago, and passed down from generation to generation. No one knows the exact meaning of Arirang but it embodies the spirit of the people of Korea for centuries. Arirang represents the suffering and tribulation (Arirang 'Hill') overcome as people and the nation. If we’re together as one holding hands, we can make it over the hill. *Arirang Alone* is a modern adaptation (released in 1990) of the original song written in the hope of reunification of Koreas. It’s a song of hope and peace. It tells a fantasy of the Island of Dokdo floating in the East Sea all alone singing Arirang. If Dokdo sang Arirang, alone in the Eat Sea, would North and South reunite? Dokdo is islets centrally located between Mount Baekdu (in northern border of North Korea) and Mount Halla (in Jeju Island, South Korea). Let’s ride a boat together from Baekdu and Halla. When we dock our boats at Dokdo, we’ll witness a new dawn together. The songwriter’s parents had to leave two sons and a daughter in North Korea during the war. His father’s dying wish to him was “when Korea reunite, go find your older brothers and sister and tell them that their parents did not abandoned them”. Where everyone in the audience sings along is where Sohyang incorporated the original Arirang lyric and melody.
of course her song is amazing...^^ and one more reason of your tears is that ARIRANG contains the Korean historical sadness...so I guess you can feel it from her song
"Why am I crying"? I am a 75 year old man and I tear up whenever I hear her sing. I've asked that question many times, and finally I know the answer. I tear up when I hear absolute perfection and that is what this fabulous singer gives us - every time.
Sir, I definitely agree with you. But regardeless of all vocal techniques, in fact she is a virtuoso in this field, her communication of emotions toward the audiences is the key point i guess and i am absolutely sure that she is a really good storyteller touching our hearts.
There are lots of Arirang songs in Korea All Arirang songs have a sad soul basically Add Sohyang expressed it very very well. Tearing is natural Friend of mine who is American was crying even though watching without English captions Have a great day
I still remember an interview with Sohyang. The reason why she sang with all her strength was that she sang loudly so that God could hear. Her voice was given by God. I still remember a few years later. that's why we always cry when we listen to her song. I'm not a Christian, but I can only describe her as an angel's voice.
FINALLY someone who actually pointed out that transition from pure head to mixed/belt (7:27). Everyone focuses on the amazing Bb5 but NO ONE talks about this. Those 2 seconds are SO DIFFICULT. She went up one octave from chest to head and then on three different syllables she changed her tone three times from head to mix in just 2 seconds. 99% of singers would have cracked every single syllable. First time i saw this video my reaction was just the same. For me it is still the most amazing bit of this performance. I mean, apart from the otherworldly experience of that Bb.
Fun fact: the whole production and arrangements are completely done by so hyang.This song has over 60 :-version .She created this one on her own.a fabulous work.
This song is korean traditional song and these lyrics have a meaning of singing about the pain of division in Korea from the war. So she said 'togerher'. I am also Korean and know the historical pain, but Sohyang's song brings me something more emotional. Thanks for your reaction..!
What are you talkin about “korean war”? The song Arirang is 600 years old. Its everything Korean. Han and Jung and every other emotion associated with our people.
@@lustwaffe9000 Oh, you're right. But I mean, this song is 'Arirang Alone', a song written and rewritten based on traditional music 'Arirang'. In the lyrics of this song, let's hold hands. The meaning of 'Let's go together' is to hope for the unification of South Korea and North Korea divided by the Korean War.
This song is actually very sad. Very hopeful but very sad, because it is a reflection of Korea as a war-torn country, filled with a lot of separations and heartbreaks, but also hope and optimism for a better, united future.
She is an actual angel, she went through a cancer and she won the battle against it... she has so much soul!! And this song it's super emotional for Korean people, it talks about the hope of reunification between North and South Korea... btw, this version of the song always makes me cry, it's so beautiful
It is been so long you didn't watch Sohyang sing. Watch her sing at Begin Again Korea road show busking to comfort people during coronavirus period. "I will always love you"
@@Tom.T she did the Korean singing for Moana and you didn’t hear even 10% of her vocal abilities there. You shouldn’t judge any Disney princess singer based on the songs they sing in a Disney movie, because those songs are mostly there for conveying a message and not focused on the vocal aspect. Why do you think “Let it Go” became so popular? Because it was one of the few Disney songs that actually contained really hard-to-hit notes. Of course children loved it.
@@beyondviolet no matter what, will i stil mean sohyang, have a voice lot better them disney use in there movies, and i will go so far to say she better then celine dion, and mariah carey, so i don,t jugde her out from have disney singer sing in the movies, but have she sing in the real life
SoHyang has a tiny figure. But a huge voice. It always suprise me as i listen to her. She can fill with her voice a whole stadium and the sky above it! She has the most powerfull voice a ever heard. Many consider her the best female singer in the world; Thats why you Ugly Laughing come from by the phrase; "Well done little one". SoHyang is by no means "ä litlle one"' she is a "Great one' ; In my opnion; "One of the best"in the world !
@@ronaldpessy6229 I think the "Well done little one" comment was matched with the old man nodding approvingly of Sohyang like he (the old man) was saying it in his head, "you have done well young one". That part was one of my favourite parts of the video, the true feeling of appreciation from the old people who personally experienced most of the challenges of Korea over the war years.
This song is of national importance, the audience is in the same emotional state as her and us. I haven't listened to this performance in a while and I got chills all over once again. That's the first thing I heard from her. She's so incredible, those transitions, that tone... One of the best singers out there. When artists of this caliber sing, we get their message even without lyrics.
I’m not gunna lie when I first saw this performance I also cried and I just couldn’t understand why but she just touched my soul with this song, it was amazing, honestly
"Why am I cryting?" Sure can relate, especially for a traditional Korean folk song! Sohyang offers this fantastic example how music can transcend language barrier. The drama and the emotion can be so readily sensed through her magical voice in this amazingly arranged song. Love your approach of using written notes throughout the video to minimize prolonged interruption and also serve to highlight the breaks where you want to make important notes. Your reaction is filled with chuckful of vocal pedagogy, which often come across dry and alienating to me, a music consumer without much professional training. However, the passion and enthusiasm you put forward about the performance makes you so approachable and likable. So glad to find you on this journey to explore about Sohyang's music and hope to see you again soon. PS: Let me mention Sohyang's Bridge Over Troubled Water for your consideration the next time also on Immortal Song 2.
Bravo Julia. For us So Hyang fans in Croatia, she is CESARICA, which means empress in the Croatian language, but Croatia's most popular song for the last 30 years is also called "CESARICA". It is a song about love for an everyday woman who is Good, beautiful, desirable to all and our hearts cannot do without her just as flowers cannot live without water as that song says. THE EMPRESS OF OUR HEARTS So Hyang. Greetings from Croatia.
In Korea, 70% of the country is mountainous. So it was common to cross the mountain from the old rural village to the other village. Most of these mountain paths that appear outside the village are very high and curved. This road was called Arirang Pass. And, Korean traditional music called "Arirang" expresses this place as the last scene of seeing loved ones leave behind. Sohyang's song, "Holo Arirang," was composed by a Korean folk song composer to wish people living separately in North and South Korea could meet in one place. in the middle of a song " Dokdo. Did you sleep well last night? " There's a lyric like this. Although it is a personified expression of the Korean language's cherished object, many Koreans become emotional with the phrase. The composer thought it was a place where the separated people could meet.
This performance is just EPIC, isnt it? just like watching a grandiose movie soundtrack live! the music arrangement, the vocal, the story, progressions. just awesome!
Isn't it interesting that even when the meaning of the song is not understood, the emotions are are still clearly recieved. Music truly is the universal language.
if someone doesn't cry when watching this (especially for the first time!), they must be devoid of all sense of humanity... so hyang is able to bring forth an emotional mixture from the very depths of my soul that ends with me sniveling like a messy child every single dang time i hear her sing.
I would strongly recommend checking out her performance of Bridge Over Troubled Water sometime!! It’s by far my favorite display of just how ridiculously effortless she makes such amazing belts
Its basically a Korean reunification song based on the traditional folk song Arirang. In the song, it mentions Baekdusan and Hallasan which are the two highest points in North Korea and South Korea which are at opposite ends. In the song, it mentions that we should travel from each end.
I have been told by many people throughout my life that I sing quite well, but I feel like a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs when I hear the likes of Sohyung. She is the singer all other vocalists strive to achieve the talent of. Thanks for reviewing one of her native language songs. This was so beautiful and moving even without knowing the words or meaning of the lyrics (subscript translation in closed captioning). BTW: I love your beautiful hair and skin. You are such a beauty. Seeing your heartfelt emotional reactions to this georgeous singing was as touching as the vocals to me. Real emotions affect me. Your clear knowledge of the subject matter is a big plus to a review channel of this type as well. You, young lady, have earned my subscription. SUB'd!
Vocal techniques aside, what separates So Hyang from the rest is her ability to express the essence of a song. Sure she has all the tools. But unless the emotions are genuine, all the technical stuff would be just a showing off. The reason we are so move by So Hyang's performances is that she sings from her heart and her emotions are real. Same thing can be said to your reaction.
I can just watch you go on all day long. As much as I am stunned by Sohyang everytime she sings, your understaning and insights of her vocal technique astounds me. You too are such a master in singing..
As a Korean (Who can understand the language and know this song well) If you felt this song is cute and pure but also make you cry That means this song is delivered correctly. The song is telling about everything that this TH-camr reacted Even if she can't understand korean and history of the song. I'm so glad I watched this video because It makes me feels like So-hyang has delivered the song perfectly.
You don't know how beloved this song is. It is the unifcation song of North and South. Arirang is the the suffering of our people. We come over it together. The single voice is total amazing true stunning motive.
This must be the 50th time I've heard this performance, and I'm weeping yet again. Her voice is so pure and angelic, her talent other-worldly. I'm so happy you've shared this review, Julie.
I'm expecting her amazing performance. Especially there is the most breathtakingly beautiful ending part I've ever heard in my whole life. She always touches my heart. I can only say Wow. After watching this performance, I don't know what to say. It's just so~~~ beautiful and amazing. She looks like an angel. Thank you so much for the best analysis and reaction. Have a good time.
I think the highlight for this performance in So Hyang's heart is the the Korean Olympic Dance Skate Team used this performance as their music in the Winter Olympics in S. Korea and if I remember correctly they medaled ...
I've already seen so many reactions to So Hyang's perfomances that I didn't think to learn anything new for myself, but you surprised me. Thank you for your reaction. Keep watching to So Hyang. I recommend you to listen to her version of Oh Holy Night from Immortal songs (8 minutes video, the song starts in the third minute)
I really appreciate your genuine comments and emotion. I know you have loads of recommended lists done by Sohyang, yes, all of them are representation of our inner most part done, stunning. I also want you to have chance to listen to relatively recent songs by her. One of them is 'I will always love you', which is, I think, already surpassing Whitney's, sorry to say. So emotionally perfect one sung in imperfect surroundings. Julia, Thanks a lot for your pure beauty as well.
it's taken me a while to watch this because every single time i hear SoHyang's rendition of this song i sob my way through it. absolutely fantastic reaction
Another 2 performances to complete the Immortal Songs series which are Lean On Me and Bridge Over Troubled Water. Both were famous western songs but So Hyang completely changed the arrangement making it feels like her original song. Hope to see them soon. Thank you so much for loving So Hyang so much. Great reaction as always.
"Arirang" means so deep, sad and historic to Koreans. And "DockDo" means so sad to Koreans. If you find her jaws, it's abnormal case to her. That's why it's so hard to sing Korean traditional song because her normal skill is not matched it, I guess. She sung "Breathe" song. You can find real "Breathe". You will be certainly surprised. That's why that song is bigger, deeper and wider than "Arirang Alone". But That song is Masked Singer Version. Because of Copyright, I think you'd better react final reacting about So-Hyang.
Shes gonna be singing again in a korean tv show called “비긴어게인” hope you can react to her recent healthy singing as well soon☺️ The show is up next week!

Damn...
Jesus that's beautiful. Makes the song somehow even more magical. This performance is seriously transcending.
Verdi's music unified Italy. Never believe it's impossible.
thankyou. seriously.. for this fine explaination..
“why am i crying” is something i find myself saying every time i listen to Sohyang
Same here
Autumn McDonough and some people say she sings with no emotion! I don’t get it!
Everytime I listen to this.
Tears: hello
Yup.. even I was shocked that I cried the 1st time I heard this song. And I am a man tho
of course her song is amazing...^^
and one more reason of your tears is that ARIRANG contains the Korean historical sadness...so I guess you can feel it from her song
One of the most stunningly beautiful live performances in human history!
It isn't very often that you hear a song and realize you have never heard anything like it before (and probably never will again.)
Exactly!
Absolutely I agree with you. Especially ending part is so breathtakingly beautiful.
A Master piece
agreed. never get tired of listening to this. evergreen most definitely.

All Arirang songs have a sad soul basically

Have a great day
Amen

She's amazing!

She sounded heavenly....

We cried at the exact same part as I'm sure everyone else did lol. Thank you for the repeat at the end. superb video❤️
Someone please put her in a Disney movie. Children NEED to be empowered by her voice!!! SENSATIONAL!!!
A true vocal coach/ voice teacher would ALWAYS have their mind blown at @7:30 part.
오늘도 당신의 모습을 보고 갑니다. 건강하세요 🍀💪...
"Sohyang, we have to stop meeting like this."
And I'm bursting in laughter 😂
I think the highlight for this performance in So Hyang's heart is the the Korean Olympic Dance Skate Team used this performance as their music in the Winter Olympics in S. Korea and if I remember correctly they medaled ...
Korean Olympic dance skate to so
Hyang
고맙습니다. 😊 아리랑 i Like YOU ~ UniVErsely in deep my mental..
Thank you for the reaction~
She is always amazing~🥰😍
Simply, she is an amazing singer!
I've already seen so many reactions to So Hyang's perfomances that I didn't think to learn anything new for myself, but you surprised me. Thank you for your reaction. Keep watching to So Hyang. I recommend you to listen to her version of Oh Holy Night from Immortal songs (8 minutes video, the song starts in the third minute)
소향 한복 잘 어울립니다. 잘 보았습니다.
Oh sohyang! what a lovely performance! surely a long waiting reaction.
What a beautiful song and interpretation. Btw. Julia, even if you cry you look amazing!
I really appreciate your genuine comments and emotion.
I know you have loads of recommended lists done by Sohyang, yes, all of them are representation of our inner most part done, stunning.
I also want you to have chance to listen to relatively recent songs by her.
One of them is 'I will always love you', which is, I think, already surpassing Whitney's, sorry to say. So emotionally perfect one sung in imperfect surroundings.
Julia, Thanks a lot for your pure beauty as well.
One of the most stunning live performances that all generations can relate to !
Julia, have never seen you stronger, that you allow yourself to be vulnerable! I see God drawing you to Himself! You carry His light!
her voice along with this song especially makes me cry so much. she did the song so much justice
So sweeeeet from you, smart reaction.,Sohyang is amazing .big 🙂🌴🌞💐💙💚💜✌️☺️from casablanca
Can't wait to see the video, Julia please do more reaction videos about Sohyang's performances
Loved your comment ^^ I have listened to this performance thousand times and I'm crying every single time .. ♥
You have a lot of feelings~ Good job~
it's taken me a while to watch this because every single time i hear SoHyang's rendition of this song i sob my way through it. absolutely fantastic reaction
Everybody can recognize mastery. But only another master can understand it and explain it.
Another 2 performances to complete the Immortal Songs series which are Lean On Me and Bridge Over Troubled Water. Both were famous western songs but So Hyang completely changed the arrangement making it feels like her original song. Hope to see them soon.
Thank you so much for loving So Hyang so much. Great reaction as always.
Sohyang Arirang fills me up with her beautiful voice.
"Arirang" means so deep, sad and historic to Koreans. And "DockDo" means so sad to Koreans. If you find her jaws, it's abnormal case to her. That's why it's so hard to sing Korean traditional song because her normal skill is not matched it, I guess. She sung "Breathe" song. You can find real "Breathe". You will be certainly surprised. That's why that song is bigger, deeper and wider than "Arirang Alone". But That song is Masked Singer Version. Because of Copyright, I think you'd better react final reacting about So-Hyang.
이런 라이브는 현장으로 가야합니다
Yes, much yes. She's so epic.
Arirang alone is a song that goes well with Korean emotion and voices
Finally one more So-Hyang reaction video !!
Love your reaction! Subscribed and liked!
Shes gonna be singing again in a korean tv show called “비긴어게인” hope you can react to her recent healthy singing as well soon☺️ The show is up next week!
thanks!
