    She is a South Korean gospel singer - she arranges all of her own performances. She is also a professor and an author, speaks several languages and has never signed to a label. She is a very devout Christian and has always just wanted to share her voice with people to make them feel better. She is a wonderful and talented woman

      That, and when she looked over the last offer from Sony Music US and discussed it with her sister in law, who is also a signed label artist, Sohyang knew she could not do all the concerts they were asking for with her limited state of health, so she said no. She liked being a free woman and I don't blame her.

    Thank you for the reaction and warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang. She is Korean (now 44) a ccm/gospel singer, devout Christian, cancer survivor, university prof, cartoonist and fantasy novelist. She is not only one of the best female vocalists currently on the planet but a remarkable human being also. She is an independent artist who has turned down recording contracts from the big labels, including from Sony during 2020. She has no social media, and says her goal is to use her voice in order to bring comfort to people going through difficult times. She does all the arrangements of her performances together with her team. I urge you to continue the journey you started, as what you witnessed is just the tip of the iceberg. Check out her rendition of Arirang Alone next on Immortal Songs 2. Look forward to the next one.

    G5 is actually not high for her, it is right at her tessitura. Her register is completely connected, and each note is supported and resonant. She can belt up to a C6 with a perfectly balanced mixed voice.
    As an operatic singer, she's technically the most complete vocalist I've heard.

      There are plenty of singers that can go up to 6 octaves. The problem is that they do so by straining and screaming which is not considered singing. The reason why Sohyang is so great is that her entire range is supported and resonant. Sorry for the late response.

    Sohyang is one of my favorite female singers. She's so amazing. I wouldn't call her the Korean Mariah Carey because she doesn't whistle. She's more like the Korean Whitney Houston. Check out her rendition of "Everyone". To recommend someone new for your channel: Forestella, a male crossover vocal quartet, also from South Korea like Sohyang. Their cover of "Hijo de la luna" would be a good start.

      I can't believe Peter hasn't Reacted to Forestella. They are all amazing. Ko WooRim's Basso Profundo just grabs you, but Kang Hyung-Ho's vocal range can almost match Dimash, (with no previous vocal training other than as a hobby Rock Singer). 😲 Cho Mingyu is such a wonderful leader and driving force, with a lovely tenor voice. And Bae Doo-Hoon's Theatrical background is so effective (especially on "Je suis Malade" which is my favourite even though I'm a huge Queen/Freddie Mercury fan). Back to Sohyang.. Just so pure every performance. You never worry she won't hit a note.

    I agree that Sohyang is perhaps the best on the planet - right there with Dimash. There are many Sohyang songs that deserve attention but I am just going to mention two: "Arirang Alone" which is a traditional Korean song hundreds of years old and the other is totally different - Day, Day; a very casual performance outdoors in some sort of festival (with a teepee??) and features Sohyang rapping(!!!!). Links are here: Arirang Alone (th-cam.com/video/zFyndK9VOCk/w-d-xo.html) and Day, Day (th-cam.com/video/bBQwhC_LLek/w-d-xo.html). Oh, and I must say that this has been my favorite reaction of yours.

    SoHyang literally has one of the best mixed voice ever. It is just every vocalist's dream to have such a balanced and powerful mix. I've also heard from some other vocal coaches that one thing that is so amazing about SoHyang is that her mixed voice is just so powerful, resonant and has a lot of weight and gritness quality to it that we might sometimes get confused whether she is singing in her full chest or in her mixed voice. The mastery and control she has over her instrument is just insane. And of course it's not just about her high notes, her voice itself is a GEM. She touched people's hearts at the very first moment she open her mouth and sing.

    Thanks for your reaction and analysis on this human phenomenon. There is no better singer on feelings transmission through her arrangements and performances. For better evaluation on her voical techinique try "Everyone", "Arrirang Alone" "I Will Always Love You" for Jazzy "Misty" "Childish Adult" for rapping "Day Day" and for monumental performances like this one, try "You Raise Me Up" "I Have Nothing" "Lean On Me". Enjoy.

    OH MY GOSH! How amazing is Sohyang 😍 I always question riffing too, like how much is planned out and how much is just freely in the moment experimenting with where to go.

    Brilliant reaction to a truly world class singer. She sings a song called 'Everyone' which is a vocal masterclass. If you found Bridge Over Troubled Water emotional you'd better have tissues ready for this one! How anyone can maintain this quality over a demanding 7.5 minute performance is staggering. She sings in a mix of Korean and English and it is wonderful. I've attached a link that includes English subtitles as, in this case, the lyrics provide context to the vocal performance. th-cam.com/video/S9J1k_zmo24/w-d-xo.html

    Welcome to Sohyang's world. It was the international media that dubbed her the Korean Mariah Carey but I don't see much resemblance. Sohyang doesn't whistle, doesn't need to. Sohyang is known for her mixed voice, her angelic soft voice and her high belt. She is one of the best female vocalists alive today. Mariah was one her idols growing up but honestly she has probably surpassed Mariah in terms of vocal technique.
    This was on Immortal Songs 2 which unlike idol, is not for singers to be discovered but for well known singers to compete against each other. More like a celebrity contest as it goes by audience vote and tends to be more about popularity. Each show has a theme and the theme for this one was 'English pop songs" Even if Bridge over Trouble Water is not really pop. Each singer arranges a song that they choose and they have whatever stage set up that they require. Sohyang tends to have a live orchestra with a few backup singers. Others might have something completely different. Also singers are invited onto this show they don't audition.
    I would suggest "Arirang Alone" next, this is a beautiful Korean cultural song. Also on Immortal Songs 2, but that night the theme was 'traditional music".

    For me, Dimash is the best male singer and Sohyang the best female singer on the planet. She sings purely to bring people comfort and hope. She’s a cancer survivor who often has pneumonia from Heb B she got from a blood transfusion. She teaches music at University, writes sci-fi books and sings her CCM! Her husband’s family and her family do all of her arrangements. When asked where her singing talent comes from, she quickly says “God”. Loved the reaction. And go watch her sing a song called EVERYONE. She says it’s technically the hardest song she’s ever sung and she doesn’t know if she’ll ever be well enough to sing it again.

    Arirang Alone is absolutely insane. Everyone is supposedly the most technically challenging per Sohyang herself. She sings with so much passion, and I kind of enjoy a bunch of her other emotionally intimate love song covers like Misty (Begin Again Korea version), Hug Me (DMC 2018 version). Her rendition of I Have Nothing (DMC 2015 version) was also the reason David Foster invited her to do a gig with him. Michael Bolton heard her rendition of Lean On Me and gave her a standing ovation and an invitation to come sing with him at his concert in South Korea.
