SOHYANG & POS

The Heavenly Diva SoHyang won another episode of KBS The Immortal Songs.
It's her only third appearance and she already won twice of them!
At her first appearance, she sang 'Lean On Me' in front of Michael Bolton
and she made him do standing ovation for her.
Bolton praised her saying she is a 'Virtuoso' and he asked her a duet and they did at his concerts.

Whenever she sings, people get crazy about her perfect performance and she did it again.
The Episode was about the English pop songs that korean people love.
And she chose 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' by Simon & Garfunkel.
She was so busy before this appearance, she had a lot of schedules in a row before the show.
she didn't have time enough to practice but she made it again.

She was 4th singer of 7 singers of the show.
Since she chose this old pop song, there were many people who didn't know this song.
(Other singers chose Let it Go of Disney Frozen OST, My Heart Will Go On by Celin Dion, Heal The World by Michael Jackson..

She didn't belt those her B5~C6 like her other songs, but still sounded strong and amazing and of course emotional.
This song has very gospel sound and you know she is a CCM singer, so it was perfect for her.

Although many people got up from their seats for her after her performance, the score was just 416.
Weirdly the audiences were calmer than other days and they didn't put the button for singers.
so the score was lower than anybody expected.
but she kept defeating other singers and became the final winner of the show.
In fact, she was only one who got over 400 score of the show.


By the way her birthday was 5th April, so this day, her fans brought big flowers, cake, letters, meals and snacks for her, her family, her team and other staffs of the show. they also would buy an expensive gift for her but she asked them to donate the money for Haiti.
So her fans donated money like $2,000 to Haiti.

Heavenly Voice, SoHyang will sing at one classical concert,
and it seems she will sing 4~5 songs including Hero by Mariah Carey.

As many fans already know on, SoHyang also can sing very classically, so she often sings with opera singers.
