Welcome to The Forces of Heaven from Sohyang 🎉😅
Thanks from Perú 😊
A warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang, one of the best female vocalists currently on the planet. Check out Arirang Alone next (a Korean folk song) from Immortal songs 2 2015. Thank you for the reaction.
Welcome to the world of SoHyang~!!!
She is CCM/GOSPEL SINGER of South KOREA and cancer survivor. .
She is one of the greatest vocalist in the world.But She wasn't known as well as popular because She sing for GOD and Comfort people who has hardtime Not for fame or money. ..In her youth, she turned down all offers from mega agencies for her beliefs...and now she is 46years old. .She has so many legendary live performances .
She always sings with sincerity whenever and wherever. So it comforts those who listen to her song...That's why I love her...And her singing skills are the best, not to mention...
This performance is just tip of iceberg.. .
Thanks for your reaction of Queen Sohyang ♥
글 감사합니다,,
수고하셨읍니다,,,
Thanks for the compliments and information.
easy to sohyang. thanks
So Hyang is a remarkable singer. As you say, she is as good as any female voice around the world. I have not found any I like better. She is now almost 46 years old, aging backwards, and still able to sing anything. She may even be better now than she was back then when she sang this song in 2015. Wait until you hear more from this vocal master! Thanks for the reaction!
Thank you.
Queen Sohyang is a vocal goddess. She can slay any genre of music :)

She is the best female vocalist in this world. Michael Bolton had a concert in Korea 2023, and she sang "Oh Holy Night" there, which was so powerful. czcams.com/video/XCRT1qrNdIE/video.html
Another is "Upon this Rock," which she sang at the concert. czcams.com/video/m9gSi3yk6g0/video.html

김소향 (Kim, So-hyang) is a South Korean singer who uses 소향 (Sohyang) as her stage name. She's up there with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Céline Dion, according to David Foster, who worked with all of them, plus other big names in the music industry, such as Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Stevie Wonder, and Michael Jackson. In fact, many vocal coaches and critics call her the Queen, and Dimash the King.
Here are several links to excellent performances by Sohyang. Many are from competitions where she pulls out all the stops and goes into vocal beast mode. The last 5 are more restrained. You can alternate between the styles, just to experience the contrasts and see her range of abilities. All are live, except for a music video of "Never Enough" (since we can never get enough of Sohyang).

BTW, Whitney's former manager saw the DMC Festival video of Sohyang singing "I Have Nothing", and contacted Oprah Winfrey, who in turn, contacted David Foster. They were all amazed. Foster invited Sohyang to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. He and his ex-wife wrote that song. He co-arranged and produced it for Whitney for her album, and her performance in "The Bodyguard". Foster has won 16 Grammy Awards, including 3 for Producer of the Year, and has been nominated a total of 47 times.
---
Her full name is "김소향 (Kim, So-hyang)", but she leaves out her surname in her stage name, "소향 (Sohyang)". Here's the breakdown of the Hangul symbols in her full name:
김소향 (Kim, So-hyang)
김 = ㄱ ㅣ ㅁ (k i m)
소 = ㅅ ㅗ (s o)
향 = ㅎ ㅑ ㅇ (h ya ng)
Google Translate in Detect Language mode pronounces them decently. However, the proper pronunciation of her stage name can be heard before the start of her Immortal Songs 2 performance of "Bridge Over Troubled Water", when the host introduces her as "SOH hee-yahng". The "hee" part is very quick and subtle, almost like a puff of air after the "h" sound carried over from the stressed "SOH" syllable. Note that the "ahng" sound uses the first and last phonemes (syllable components) of "awe" and "song", respectively; it isn't "uhng" or "ohng" as too many non-Korean folks claim.
Thanks for the info and the pronunciation correction. I'll try to learn.
우와,,,
글 올리시느라 수고 하셨읍니다,
감사합니다~
@PaoloBassotto: You're welcome. I compiled the info as I watched the many stunning Sohyang performances.
@adorable2545: You're welcome. Over 25 years ago, I wrote a Hangul font look-up routine for ASCII string input. The short specification I received only had a table for letters A-Z placed in 3 groups, the allowed word patterns using those groups from 1 to 5 times, and a mapping of a very limited set of ASCII-encoded Korean words into their glyphs. There was no letter-to-symbol mapping or pronunciation guide, but by comparing the letter patterns and glyphs, I noticed how each letter is mapped to a symbol component and realized it's like using an ASCII keyboard to type Hangul "letters" to form "words" in the Korean writing system. That's a good way to form fixed display prompts without having to use 16-bit binary codes to map to a font.
Paolo, welcome to the World of Sohyang. Since you are so clearly a sophisticated Reactor, I will jump ahead to tell you many things that will compel you to see and hear more. Sohyang is a Genius. First, she is the finest Coloratura Soprano alive with her musical roots in Gospel Music. Plus, she is a Songwriter, a Musical Arranger, a Composer (Dream), a Staging and Lighting Engineer (Lean on Me), an Actress (The Sound of Music), a Movie Voice-over Singer (Moana), she teaches Music and Voice at University, she is the Author of four novels and a treatise on the New Testament, speaks three languages, and is an Artist in Pen and Ink and Watercolor. She is a shy, humble, generous, kind, and spiritual person with a charming personality who is always stunningly beautiful with innocent eyes, a little-girl voice, a lilting laugh, and a smile that melts the hardest heart. Ok. I'm gushing, but I really left some things out. Well my friend Todd didn't . . .
Cheers.
When it comes to Sohyang, Dave, all we can do is gush, LOL! 😲
@@ToddSauve I know. and I have been scoffed at, even scorned for it, and I don't care. It is all the truth when describing this adorable little genius lady and yes, I still leave things out. You are the only one I can point to for the rest of her story.
Cheers, my friend.
@@daveg.6820 I've had several miserable people try to give me a hard time over my posts lately. One was Korean woman named Joan Aso who wanted to argue forever that I didn't know what I was talking about with my Lean on Me post about Sohyang. Finally another person came along and told her she was just argumentative and anyone could see she was only being negative.
Another guy was a Morrisette fan and did not like it that I praised Sohyang so fulsomely with the same post I placed on this site. He wanted to argue forever that his fave was the best. So finally I just muted him and ignored him.
The last guy also complained that I had posted such a thorough examination of her Lean On Me performance. What small and pathetic lives some people lead that they search CZcams for people they can try and make miserable, just like they are miserable. 🤷♂
@ToddSauve Yep. They are in every crowd and this is a big crowd. I have copied out and saved a couple of classic arguments just like the ones you were involved in. There is a singing coach named Sam Johnson. I didn't have a big argument with Sam. I just kinda blew him up with facts. He actually thinks that he can teach EVERYONE to sing, and when he heard Sohyang, he said he was pissed because he wasn't sure he could teach everyone to sing like her. What a Narcissist. Just NUTS. Anyway, Yeah, I also get a lot of that from Comments on the Political blogs. I'm well known as a Conspiracy Theorist, and if you cross me, I will leave you naked and bleeding. It is so bad that CZcams blanks out my Upvotes. 😆
Later, bud. Cheers.
@@daveg.6820 CZcams blocks many of my posts also. Hardly a day goes by that one of them will be deleted or blocked repeatedly, such that I simply cannot even post an answer to someone. I wish there was a decent competitor to CZcams but for the time being we are all stuck with them and their manipulations of what can be said and not said. Free speech is not in existence here. And I'm not trying to harm anyone but simply post a link to another video they sponsor from a group who believe in intelligent design. But it gets deleted immediately. The people who run this site are tin pot tyrants who hate the very idea that we are created beings. So while they host videos by the Discovery Institute, they block every attempt by anyone to steer others their to hear their arguments. I don't even know how long this post will remain here. Anyway, we are in agreement that CZcams is convinced that they are Big Brother and they will shape society as they see fit, free speech be damned. 🤷♂🙄🙃
Thank you for the your good reaction 😊😊
I'm a big fan of SoHyang
I subscribed .. good luck!!!

We all wonder if Sohyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such _POWER_ it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself, with the input of her in-law family and musical assistants, teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks four languages: Korean, English, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading French and Greek!
Let me catch my breath. OK.
She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all eagerly worked with her when they were in Asia.
She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: czcams.com/video/te_L9ofhUt8/video.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere!
She just turned 45 on April 5, 2023, though in Korean culture she would be 46 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone,” their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527
While being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international attention from the performances being posted on CZcams.
Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on CZcams and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted Sohyang and went to Japan in order to have her perform eight concerts with him at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. For those who don't know, David Foster was Whitney Houston's producer for some of her songs, wrote "I Have Nothing," her most iconic song, and is the most famous and influential music producer in the world. He places Sohyang right beside Whitney and the rest of the top tier divas.
Here is the interview where Sohyang related the events: czcams.com/video/EqeE_1nP-Kk/video.html (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.)
Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster, Whitney's former manager and the rest watched on CZcams: czcams.com/video/T4UyIMkdy4M/video.html
She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203
She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 16:25 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”
In a South Korean television interview Sohyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. Sohyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding international celebrity status from her. czcams.com/video/rl-jX9kBsEs/video.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.)
So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no interactive social media presence whatsoever.
What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her! And whether Sohyang likes it or not, fame has found her, run her over and then backed up and run over her again!
On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that Sohyang turned down _yet another_ contract offer, this time from Sony Music US. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995
“Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said.
“I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.”
“And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via CZcams, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.”
Sohyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble and genuine, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts.
In Korean dictionaries 소향--Sohyang--has several meanings.
• First is a type of Korean traditional music.
• Second is to burn incense on a burner.
• Third is to go toward.
But these meanings are rarely used today. Sohyang is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. Yet for the definitive answer Sohyang has stated in an interview that her name means "enjoy the light." Her grandmother named her.
Please analyze her performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”: czcams.com/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/video.html
Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: czcams.com/video/LrNkVRrK7_I/video.html
Plus this beautiful duet with her friend Lee Hi where they do Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”: vimeo.com/439148918
And this version of her singing “Oh Holy Night”: vimeo.com/322716334
Here she performs “Lean On Me” before Michael Bolton, who called her a vocal “virtuoso” after her performance: czcams.com/video/GvsgCllcNPE/video.html
Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: czcams.com/video/rte-q3kunp8/video.html
Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448
And finally “Will You Be There”: czcams.com/video/nBdSpexUxik/video.html
Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: czcams.com/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/video.html Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews.
OK, I’ll stop gushing now.
Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer Sohyang's assistants revealed (a bit to her chagrin, as she is a self-effacing person) that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: czcams.com/video/VnPAkryrygQ/video.html I know, bananas isn’t it?
Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published fantasy novelist and has a theological treatise on the Book of Revelation in print. In addition, she is a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean stage production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She taught herself English by watching Disney's "The Little Mermaid" 'about one hundred times' when she was just a kid, speaks English with a _perfect_ North American accent and has an outgoing and bubbly personality.
She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Ironically, Sohyang stated in another interview that both she and her in-law family were surprised to discover that she could sing so excellently!
Though she is maybe 5' 4" and only about 100 pounds, Sohyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it, and then re-emerges when she is done. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent _entire days_ listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way.
I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people Sohyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear, and that is important to note as these are _essential_ elements of any great musical production. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else.
As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😉
