Sohyang's singing is shockingly beautiful. If a person has never heard her sing before it is truly a stop and listen moment, and she easily outperforms Whitney Houston. As Sohyang says, "You must be born with a good voice, but then work very hard to improve it." She almost eats, sleeps and breathes music. Here is what David Foster, who wrote the song and produced it for Whitney, had to say about Sohyang in an interview with South Korean media site _Naver_ on December 10, 2018, only a week after doing eight concerts with her at Tokyo's Blue Note Club. “I wanted to meet her very much, and I am delighted to have collaborated in putting together a concert. Here is how I got to know about Sohyang. Oprah Winfrey introduced me to 'a stunningly amazing singer whose video is a must watch.' I fell in love at once with Sohyang's first video I watched on TH-cam, 'I Have Nothing.' It was _thrilling,_ and I searched to listen to most of her other songs as well. I have wanted to meet her for a long time. She is one of the top divas I've come across." David Foster didn't hold back praise. "Her voice is very beautiful and overwhelming, and I found her every performance to be emotionally moving and amazing. Moving forward, I want to collaborate again!" It was actually Whitney Houston's former manager, almost certainly her sister in law Pat Houston, who found this performance on TH-cam and showed it to Oprah Winfrey. 🤷♂👌💘 Sohyang was named by her grandmother, whom she believes God inspired with the name even though neither her parents nor grandmother were Christians. Her name means "enjoy the light" as people have correctly informed me. Sohyang's favourite movie star is Brad Pitt. Like "duh," eh? What woman doesn't love Brad Pitt? Ha, ha! 😎 Sohyang is a 100% self-taught singer except for five sessions with Seth Riggs, which she didn't talk about in the interview I learned this from, so I think she had her Seth Riggs lessons after 2009 when this interview was recorded. She said she spent time with one of the producers of Boyz II Men while on vacation in California and learned either vocal technique or audio recording technique or both because he had a home recording studio. When she watches movies she doesn't take her hubby along because she wants to concentrate on the film without anyone interrupting or talking to her. Sorry hubby, but you can be so distracting and annoying at the movies! 😝 Sohyang likes action movies! She carries her Bible with her most places. It is an English New International Version and she tries to read five chapters a day, because it helps her stay fresh on her English. Oh yes, Sohyang wanted to be involved in musicals on stage but was offered the role of Carmen, which she turned down because Carmen was a prostitute. It sounded like she was offered prostitute roles repeatedly, so she more or less gave up on anything operatic. Though, of course, she did appear in "The Sound of Music." She is just one of those naturally wholesome women, and I think that is one of the reasons we like her. 😇❤ Sohyang is also analytic to the nth degree! She will listen to a song she likes over and over until she is satisfied she knows it inside out. The bass line, the drums, the vocals. She keeps going until she has almost worn out the recording. Well, she didn't say that last part but it is pretty obvious that she knows her music and when she decides to cover a song, she is going to cover it like it has never been covered before! And don't we all know it!?!! 🎸👍💘🎸
Hi Robbie. Thanks for another Sohyang video. The fans will recognize my Comments, but I wanted to give you some tips on doing a Sohyang reaction. Sohyang IS a unique form of beautiful agony. She captures and utterly enchants you until she lets you go. As amazing as is her voice, she must be watched. If you close your eyes, turn away, or begin to speak, you WILL miss something precious. Along with her other talents, she is a skilled actress. In this performance, she takes on an adorable stage presence for this Classic song - when she tugs up that slinky blue gown and slides across the stage like a sultry Blues Singer in a 1940s movie, I melt into my chair - every time. In this, pure gift from Sohyang, she is at times; glamorous, beautiful, cute, playful, intense, dramatic, friendly, happy, serious, connected, and energetic. All of that, while she is in absolute control over her voice, the musical arrangement, the musicians, the stage, and the audience. Alien or Angel, there is no one like Lady Sohyang. By the way, her belt buckle is embossed with the word POWER. Fitting, is it not? Cheers.
Now I know that all the famous singers are forced on us while there are variety, hard working, and different talents around the world. Really, the media is unfair with those gems. Thank you for this reaction
FANTASTIC/ENTHUSIASTIC/AWESOME reaction. This event was in 2015, when the PHENOMENAL So Hyang was 37 years old. She is now 46 years old. Not only is she aging in reverse, she sounds better than ever, if that's even possible. There are TH-cam clips of So Hyang performing this song at recent October 2024 concerts. She is singing the entire song from a seated position, with her legs crossed. Reactors who are singers themselves indicate how difficult it is to belt out high notes while sitting. So Hyang makes it look easy.
and she did this live! Sohyang is from another planet! Please react to her covers of If I Aint Got You and I Will Always Love You (Begin Again performance) If you like jazz -- check out Sohyang covering Misty (Begin Again perfomance) -- imo she is the best in the world. her 2023 cover of Adele's: Easy On Me is amazing too

Just be careful of copyright with these unedited videos you have been using. It may have been fine so far but Korean broadcasters can be tough. KBS, JTBC and MBC could hit you with a copyright.
