I'm not even Korean but this song makes me feel so patriotic.

When she hits that high note, I just start crying for no reason. She's so powerful.

Me:*feels korean pride* Me: but im jamaican Me:*feels korean pride nonetheless*

I'm feeling Korean Pride... but I'm Brazilian.

The elders are so proud of her ❤

This really showcases the power of music. This isn’t just a song, it’s an _experience_ .

I actually feel bad for those who haven't heard a performance from SoHyang

I didn’t mean to cry but goddamn as soon as she started singing “it will flow” my eyes were “damn right it will”

I'll leave a comment in here so I can comeback if someone like it this singer is so good at vocals

Alright, see you guys again tomorrow.

IF SOMEONE GAVE ME A PENNY EVERYTIME I WATCHED THIS I COULD PAY OFF MY STUDENT LOANS (Edit: Nov 2020 still here, the thumbnail changed omg legend indeed.)

how hard the song is level: 1. easy 2. medium 3. hard 4. sohyang

How can someone have the sweetest voice on earth and yet monstrously powerful at the same time???? She has so much control on her entire vocals. Simply the finest vocalist I've ever ever heard!!

When she started singing, it was so touching that I started crying with Korean pride. Then I realized I am middle eastern

So Hyang: goose bumps? Nah fam, Imma give goose mountains.

Somebody crown her THE Korean princess oR I WILL

the weird thing is that i listened to this song over 2/3 years ago and rlght know, in the middle of the night at nearly 3 am, my mind went like ARIRANG AARIRANG, so yeah thats why i am here😭

BREAKING NEWS: Korean singer Sohyang is the prime suspect in the theft of countless wigs.

She is a real life disney princess.

Who the fuck needs the audio version when u have so hyang

I’m writing a comment here, please like so every time i get a notification i can come back and watch this incredible performance again🤍

She took a simple traditional folk song and turned it into a dramatic track from a movie.

*_every single person in this universe needs to listen to this work of art before dying_*

So Hyang is amazing and all but you guys gotta give props to those background vocals and orchestra. They are just perfection.

Let’s be real…..she’s The best vocalist in Korea right now

Why does it sound like she's summoning a portal to heaven. Edit: I honestly don't expect these much likes. Thanks, I guess.

She is one of the best vocalists alive PERIOD

some don't understand how hard it is to reach those notes. it's close to impossible. the control, technique, pitch, everything is perfect.

Fun fact: Yura Min & Alexander Gamelin performed an ice skating routine to this song during the 2018 Winter Olympics👑

They should let her sang the song at the olympics to be honest. It will blown away international tourist, and make them open eye that Korea doesn’t only have queen of ice Yuna but also the queen of vocal Sohyang!

But can we appreciate the woman who's playing the violin...Amazing😯😮

2:54 LOOK AT VIOLINIST

이 아리랑 이길 사람은 없을 듯 미쳤다

let me ask: how can this even have DISLIKES?!

My brain: It’s 2am, you need sleep Me: I need So Hyang

Disney needs a Korean Princess NOW & she needs to voice her!

국가행사에 필요한 공연 수준임 ㅠㅠ

That feeling when your chest is about to burst and there is a weird pressure....then later on you notice yourself crying and asking " just what the hell happened?"

I'm a Korean. 'Arirang' means 'contact' or 'to meet'. 'Arariyo' means 'I miss you' or 'lovesickness'. Korea is the only divided country in the world. Many families were torn apart by the war. Dokdo is the easternmost island in Korea. It was the first land invaded when it became a Japanese colony. For Koreans, Dokdo is a symbol of sovereignty. 'Baekdusan' is the highest mountain in North Korea and 'Hallasan' is the highest mountain in South Korea, It is also the farthest north and south.

When South and North Korea finally unified.. THIS QUEEN BETTER BE SINGING ARIRANG DURING THE CEREMONY 😭😭😭😭 I will cry!!!

for a total of 5 minutes and 18 seconds I am Korean

Her voice is so smooth. like silk.

This hit me with so much korean pride and I’m african sis got me crying over here.

Let's be honest : This isn't your first time.. 😂

There are people who has never seen this, but none that have only seen this once. It's been 8 years since this was posted and we're still here lol

You might be a good singer but are you Sohyang level.

my face - hardening my arm - forming mountains my eyes - watering my wig - snatched

2:11 we just entered another dimension, congratulations

I'm from Poland. I just found out about this song today. This performance made me emotional. It's a beautiful Korean traditional song and it's been amazingly performed.

korean music is NOT just kpop

What makes this performance so great is that Sohyang didn't _outshine_ the message of the song. She didn't make it about her - she told the story and delivered it in a way that made you appreciate not just her voice, but the whole composition, and the music. Even though damn she *SANG* , her artistry painted the picture of Arirang; not her face.

She's blending with the instruments behind her AAAAHHHH this performance is very PERFECT.

The whole crowd was silenced, mesmerized by her singing

This is my favorite vocal performance by anyone. ever.

This woman has snatched so many weaves she has a collection.

Watch me for Christmas listening to this instead of carols

simply the best vocalist ever.

I just realized that you can get goosebumps on your legs and toes

I'm not Korean and don't understand the lyrics but I'm crying

The backup singers are doing a fantastic job complimenting her voice with their bassy undertones. A classic mix of bitter and sweet.... Both beautiful textures

Debatably the best female vocalist alive today

2018? ..Sorry 2019 ?? …2020?…2021??…2022??? Any SOHYANG lovers?

Holy crap I actually got chills 2:15

Incredible! @2:10-2:22 •Lung- Power •Control •Unbelievable-Vocal-Range •Tone Quality So Hyang is Untouchable

소리만 지를줄 안다고 하는 사람들 바로 주둥이 휘갑치기 해버리는 영상.

One may not understand the language used, but the song touches everyone who hears it. That's the power of music it breakes every barrier, be it race , religion, political or social standing, and brings all together.

Every people in this planet have to watch this at least once in their lifetime.

OMG! I have to say 2 things: 1. She has a perfect pitch even without using in-ear monitor!! Sohyang is in another level. 2. The arrangement for this song is amazing!!! It is definitely one of my favorites.

Every person has a right to listen Sohyang before they die... It's the most brutal and inhumane thing on earth if any people die not knowing Sohyang at all

I'm watching this at least once a month to have a good skin and high grades

Arirang is one of the most oldest korean tranditional songs in Korea. Arirang is not just any tradition song it's a very typical one to korean people. Dokdo is symbolized as a guardian of korean territory (it is a small island by Korea) In this song "hill" means hardship or advisory. Arirang is not a place of a name of an actual hill. Some scholars have said that arirang is just a beloved phonetic by Koreans. The term is possibly referring to Korea itself or a feeling of sadness. Korea suffered a lot of hardship because of Japan's Imperialism in the 18th century. In that time, Koreans sang this arirang from the sadness from losing their country and. "Let's cross this arirang hill" means let's over come our hardship together. There are many versions of it, too. This version she is singing Arirang Alone (홀로알리랑) has undertones of reunification between north and south korea - "our hearts will flow as one" and "baekdusan to hallasan". Baekdu is a mountain in North Korea/China border and Halla mountain is the mountain on the southern tip of the Korean peninsula.

Autotune is crying in her corner

The beginning starts off slow and soft and her voice is smaller and weaker but as the song grows she gets stronger and more and more powerful and more confident and that’s the whole meaning to the Korean masterpiece lyrics of this song. How powerful and beautiful.

I can't understand how something,a HUMAN,produce these sounds. What a vocal beast.

okay but that violinist tho

We need to start a movement letting sohyang perform at the Grammys

I am not Korean, but knowing the lyrics while listening to this makes me dream of Korea becoming one again 😭❣️

I will type in English because so many English writers. This is Google Translate so please be patience. This song is very close to me. My grandparents would pass it down to my mother, then to me. Every time we are stressed, worried or afraid, we think and sing this song. This performance makes me cry every time and lets all Koreans unite together in times of societal or political issues become harsh. This is Korean Anthem.

Tears dry on their own. Emotive and explosive

Fun fact : the audience was visually edited because by the end of the performance they all went bald

Her voice is so clear and so very beautiful. Whether its extremely high-pitched or extremely low-pitched, her voice is so stable without any failing and the lyrics are delivered accurately. Amazing just amazing! ❤

Let's admit it... We are always coming back here because she's perfect

Did anyone ever notice the violinist jamming at the 2:54 mark. CUTEST THING EVAAARRRRR

I'm sure So Hyang feels the love in South Korea, but I often wonder if she is aware of how loved she is all over the world?

I'm not even korean but i cried

I cannot imagine how vigorous and diciplined her vocal trainings are, I do not believe a voice like hers is simply a gift, that's what blew my mind

I tried to sing this, police came. Accusing me of abusing animals.

Yes... I am back for my daily dose. Problem?

Happy birthday Queen (5 April 1978). 46 years old today 5 April 2024 and still going strong.
