This woman survived ovarian cancer found on her honeymoon. The treatments rendered her unable to have kids, which was devastating to her and her husband. She also contracted hepatitis from blood transfusions and that can really affect her health and singing sometimes. Regardless, she rededicated her life to singing in order to bring people joy and hope and comfort. As far as I’m concerned she’s an angel walking among us. She and her husbands family do all her arranging and she tours with her church band and backing singers. She’s also a sci-fi author and a music teacher. She’s been offered big money from David Foster and other American music producers, but she knew she’d lose creative control, and that it didn’t require a big contract for her to sing to comfort people. Enjoy your SoHyang journey!!

GREAT!! reaction. You have just witnessed a small sample of the flexibility in the PHENOMENAL So Hyang's voice. Her vocal range is RIDICULOUS and her breath control is INSANE and UNMATCHED. This event was in 2015, when So Hyang was 37 years old. She is now 45 years old, and she continues to prove her technique is ROCK SOLID!! She looks fantastic and she sounds better than ever. So Hyang, her husband and some assistants, arrange every aspect of her live performances; the music, backing vocals, staging, lighting, etc.

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 45years 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 ♥

Kim So Hyang is a South Korean gospel singer that has been active since the mid 1990's. She is likely one of the best vocalists on the planet. Her covers of 'I Have Nothing', 'Lean On Me', and 'You Raise Me Up', are all world class performances. And 'Everyone' is a clinic in singing. But be sure to find a version with English captions for the best experience. Also her appearances on the 2020 'Begin Again Korea' television program are incredible. Cheers!

For some reason not too many people check out Hug Me (DMC Festival 2018). For me that version is absolutely the most dramatic, heart-wrenching, performance of hers that I've seen. Does she hit a B5 in that one? Nope, but she was in character from start to finish and stays in it for a bit after the music ends. Really reminds me of Lara Fabian, who also puts everything she has into telling the story within the song and when someone does that, they cannot just release and be cheery right away. It does take time to regain the sense of self. For me, that is one of the indicators of a great performer. Not showy with her expressions, no pointless vocal acrobatics (although she totally could have pulled those off), understands the lyrics and the music, and tells the story truthfully. She's also one of those rare singers where you can get to relax and enjoy her music without having to worry that her voice might not come through for her. You know it's going to be reliably amazing and the only thing you have to do is listen.

So Hyang is a 45 year old devout Christian and gospel singer from South Korea. In her early 20's and newly married, she was diagnosed with early stage uterine cancer, which left her unable to have children. After receiving a healing from God, So Hyang's goal has been to use her voice to bring comfort to people who are experiencing difficult times. She IS NOT motivated by either money or fame. So Hyang has rejected numerous offers from major record labels. In addition to being a published author of several fiction books, So Hyang lectures about song and vocal technique at a South Korean university.

It is the Spirit of God in her that is causing these intense emotional reactions, plus her amazing talent.

I’ve followed her for 7 years & obviously I echo the comments regarding her talent & many I’m sure will recommend that you check out her back story & why she sings etc & why she’s not well known outside of her homeland etc but what always amazes me is that when you hear her turn on the power & seemingly unlimited breath control you wouldn’t necessarily think that she looks like she does if you’d only heard her before & never seen her, she is tiny in both height & build!! She’s not just a one trick pony, this living angel can anything & there are video’s available to prove this & not only can she sing all these different genre’s, she sings them to an exceptional standard, rock,pop, blues/jazz, the big power ballads goes without saying,RAP (I just thought I’d type rap nice & big for you in case you thought your eyes were playing tricks on you) traditional music to name a few, but het heart is with gospel music & elements of gospel can be found in her arrangements of songs that are not usually associated with that genre in its original form. I have not yet seen her tackle country music, nor have I heard her sing anything opera ( well full opera at least, I have seen a couple of performances that you may call ‘operish!!) but in both cases, I have no doubt wotsoever that if she decided that she would like to tackle these genre’s she would succeed.

Kim, So-hyang (김소향) is a South Korean singer. Her stage name is Sohyang (소향). 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, 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). DMC Festival: kzitem.info/news/bejne/tWqL332DpJaqZ4I "I Have Nothing" [Whitney Houston] kzitem.info/news/bejne/pHyquImJiaqUlKg (camera only on Sohyang) kzitem.info/news/bejne/z21ny32Ni592p44 "Dream" [소향 (Sohyang)] {Korean} Immortal Songs 2: kzitem.info/news/bejne/pGyfrpxqsnSpdqQ "Bridge Over Troubled Water" [Simon & Garfunkel] kzitem.info/news/bejne/23yv1JiBcoiAdqA "Arirang Alone" [traditional Korean folksong, lyrics adapted for reunification of North & South Koreas] {Korean} kzitem.info/news/bejne/qKypzXeipZV_g3o "Lean On Me" [Bill Withers, Jr.; Michael Bolton guest] kzitem.info/news/bejne/1ZuVsm2ln5qGp20 "You Raise Me Up" [Secret Garden; Shane Filan (Westlife) guest] kzitem.info/news/bejne/qWubnYGGq5donI4 "여러분 (Everyone)" [윤복희 (Yoon, Bok-hee)] {Korean, English} I Am A Singer 2: kzitem.info/news/bejne/uq2drGd9sp6mYGU "O Holy Night" [Adolphe Charles Adam] King of Masked Singers: kzitem.info/news/bejne/wpWitXWdrZtoi4Y "모나리자 (Mona Lisa)" [조용필 (Cho, Yong-pil)] {Korean, English} kzitem.info/news/bejne/kad4uYSGomV2hoI "Home (집)" [박효신 (Park, Hyo-shin)] {Korean, English} Begin Again Korea: kzitem.info/news/bejne/zYmwyGqXaYKchIo "Flashlight" with Lee Suhyun [Jessie J] kzitem.info/news/bejne/wJ-s3KSBbId-n6w "Misty" [Ella Fitzgerald] kzitem.info/news/bejne/pYVumml7qodkmHo "I Will Always Love You" [Dolly Parton] kzitem.info/news/bejne/zGuN13t_iZyip5g "Never Enough" [Loren Allred] Open Concert: kzitem.info/news/bejne/15Cvr5ili4R8eaQ "The Power of Love" [Jennifer Rush] 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. He invited her to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. Foster co-wrote that song. He 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.

Sohyang (pronounced as “So-Young”) she is from South Korea. I’m 73 years old and to me she is the greatest singer I’ve ever heard in my life. She not only a great singer but a beautiful person both inside and out. She first began singing in her local community, with no aspirations of pursuing a career as a professional singer. She was offered numerous contracts from major record companies, but she turned them down, because it would interfere with the plans God had for her. She is a devout Christian and has said that her goal in life is to use her voice to comfort people who are going through difficult times. She knows what hard times is like, her parents divorced when she was in her third year of high school and due to this, she experienced a lot of financial difficulties and was often very sad and she said that it was music that helped her through these difficult times. At the age of twenty she got married and soon after was diagnosed with uterine cancer, which she was able to survive, and she gives the credit to God. She is also an author of children books since 2013. Another thing is that she does all the arrangements for the songs she sings. SHE IS THE BEST EVER

Short run down on Sohyang. She started as a gospel singer in a CCM band, got married and diagnosed with early stage ovarian cancer at just 21. She had to have both sides removed leaving her not only sterile but also with hepatitis which gave her many bouts of pneumonia through the years. Her ongoing health and faith are why she remains an independent artist, so no large label backing, hence her also not being as known as she should be. Sohyang is has a wealth of performances, both gospel as well as other genres. This one on Immortal Songs 2 is a cover of a classic Simon & Garfunkel Folk song from 1970. Wasn't sure if you knew since you didn't mention them. Immortal Songs 2 that she has been on numerous times is a type of celebrity sing off. The night has a theme and the artists who are invited on have to re arrange a song. This is her own arrangement. For a starting list I would suggest "Arirang Alone" On Immortal Songs 2 (IS2) "You Raise Me Up" (IS2) "I Have Nothing" DMC festival "I Will Always Love You" On begin Again Korea (BAK) "Everyone" (IS2) "Lean on me" (IS2)

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 five languages: Korean, English, French, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading 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: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1ZuVsm2ln5qGp20 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 KZitem. Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on KZitem 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: kzitem.info/news/bejne/pqebq5Nnp4JefqA (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 KZitem: kzitem.info/news/bejne/tWqL332DpJaqZ4I 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. kzitem.info/news/bejne/06Jj0IxvpHSkeKg (Again, turn on English subtitles.) So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no 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 KZitem, 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”: kzitem.info/news/bejne/pGyfrpxqsnSpdqQ Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: kzitem.info/news/bejne/raiE0YqIq31okn4 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: kzitem.info/news/bejne/qKypzXeipZV_g3o Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: kzitem.info/news/bejne/06qbk6VppKefo20 Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448 And finally “Will You Be There”: kzitem.info/news/bejne/z3iauaSbsYepnKA Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: kzitem.info/news/bejne/r2irxaSjqImpnW0 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: kzitem.info/news/bejne/t6SGp5-osqSqmoY 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. 😉

@@Mike-RKD I'll bet you haven't had a response to a female singer like this in quite some time, eh? Sohyang has literally millions of devoted fans, so the hits on your channel are likely to go right through the roof whenever you post a reaction to her. I envy you what you are about to discover. I cried almost like a baby the first time I heard "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and for probably the next 20 times and I was 61 when I found her. I'm 65 now and she makes me mist up, at the very least, whenever I listen to her. No other female artist in my entire life has done that to me. I'm a rock and blues guys, especially excellent guitarists. But Sohyang seems to have a magical power to her performances and none of us can say why, other than we think God is on her side. She is a wonderful woman in every way and all of us wish her the very, very best. And we hope that for you too Mike! 👌💖😇👽🛸

Kim So Hyang is one of my favorites from South Korea out of many phenomenal singers, her best friend Cho Yong Jin aka ALi is my ultimate favorite, then we have Park Ki Young, Son Seung Yeon aka Sonett, Song So Hee, Heo Hoy Kyung, Shin Ji Hoon, Jung Seo Ju, Kim Tae Yeon, Jeon Yu Jin, Kim So Yeon to name a few that are incredible. The song she covers is not hers, but the original is Simon and Garfunkel. Another big-time favorite cover by So Hyang is "You Raise Me Up" kzitem.info/news/bejne/1ZuVsm2ln5qGp20

Welcome to the World of Sohyang. She doesn't just sing high notes, but always touches the hearts of listeners. There are some singers who have a very high range and they can surprise me. However, she can not only surprise me but also make me teary. I recommend her 'You Raise Me Up' from the same programe. It's the best-ever cover you've never seen before. You will meet the God one more time : )
