  • Some say Sunghee left because her career went against her religion/beliefs, while some say she left because she'd promised her parents she would keep her grades up and then she failed her collage exams. No one knows.

    And you can't compare this to Taeyeon. This was sung in 2007. Either compare Sunghee with Taeyeon from 2007, use recent videos of Sunghee (there aren't any) or not at all.

    But anyway, Sunghee is amazing. Watch Secret World. You'll see ♥

    (And this was their debut year. Just saying.)

  • Can I see any proof of the statement she made about becoming a JW? There's rumor, but I can't believe it before I see it for myself.

  • she is amazing!! why did she leave kara?? omg kara would be even better with her and seungyeon combined! :)

  • @zhaikat she left because she wasn't doing well at school

  • She's seriously so good. Like better than all the kara members combined, excluding seungyeon cos seungyeon is good.

  • JW's aren't a cult it is a type of Christian, I know because I am one and even if I wasn't I would still respect her decision because although she's an amazing singer it's about what brings her joy!

  • she is so good.. she needs to come back and i bet you she'll be like, the best singer in the world. i want her voice.

  • Sungja ah, are you proud of Gyulhamcole?? Did you like STEP? Kamilias misses you <3

  • @officialnaddy omg i really love your comment ... <3

  • She sounds like she's forcing herself to sound good

  • Jehovah W is not christian... i ama christian and i do know very weel about JW. They are actually cult that claims to act like christian..

  • @EVERCADEVIL They are not a cult.

  • @kryptonkaulitz okay, but they don't exactly follow the truth taken from the bible. i shall stick to my opinion and you, to yours.

  • i like hyorin but i still think that sunghee has got better vocals. :) i miss sunghee unnie.

  • way better than sunye or taeyeon from snsd... she is really good!

  • her voice is really amazing. i'm glad that shes happily married, even though i wish she never left kara.

  • Wow, she's really talented, and super pretty! I'm definitely happy for her that she pursued her education, because it must be hard as an idol, but I do feel sad, because I'm sure Kara would have been an even greater success if she was still with them <3

  • SungHee was, and still is the best singer in a Kpop girl group to this day. I can't even imagine TaeYeon attempting a Mariah/Beyonce song cause she doesn't have the depth or range that SungHee does. HyoRin has the throne now, no one in the industry can touch her vocals.

  • @kmoon89 u obviously don't know 천상지희 The Grace, then.....they are as powerful and wide ranged as 김성희 was

  • @kmoon89 Please..have you heard Jea's from BEG voice..she has the throne..Hyorin is just OVERRATED..She has ZERO control of her voice.

  • @nadiafantastic Exactly, no point in using this video now to compare to elite singers now lol...It's four years old, and she has gotten a lot better. She would destroy every other lead vocalist out there if she came back right now (although I am a huuuuge fan of HyoRin).

  • Its no use to compare Sung Hee with Taeyeon..

    ~~~~~~~

    I think she's very good, not everyone can sing Mariah's songs..

    She has wide range, but no stability..

    If we still insist, Taeyeon has a very high pitch, and very good stability.. She can sing live exactly the same as recording version.. And dont forget, she's a team leader too..

    So?? Who will you choose?? Its just about our own opinion :)

  • @amanwillnevercry Taeyeon ain't got shit on SungHee. Taeyeon isn't even as good as Hyorin. Don't get me wrong, I like her and all, and she has a great voice, but she is extremely, extremely overrated.

  • @amanwillnevercry i agree with u.....no use comparing, and she was unstable while singing, all the notes were there, but she was shaky throughout.....hyorin is better actually, though when she sings, she kind of coughs blood bcuz srly, she forces up her chords a lot

  • There is a clear difference between people who know how to sing and people who are born singers. Sunghee WAS BORN A SINGER.

  • she has a good range and tone but she lacks stability

  • watching this it makes me miss sungja so much and wonder how she would be in kara now. im still so shocked and sad that shes getting married because her potential as an artist was the best ive ever seen. this is not her song but if you watch kara perform secret world you'll see why she's a good vocalist. besides just singing, she was great in terms of dancing, charisma, looks and most of all personality. she was the life of kara back then.

  • Lots of people say that Sunghee was the best thing that happened to KPOP. I don't get it. All she did was just do a good cover of Mariah Carey.

    Hyorin's done a few good covers of Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Christina Aguilera and there's still people who's debating about how good she is.

    Anyways, maybe because there's no music, but Sunghee's high notes here are a bit squeaky and hard on my ears.

  • Comment removed

  • @AnimalPath

    Hyorin has great vocals but she sometimes strains her voice and forces emotions with weird expressions and hand gestures whereas the natural emotion and the passion that flows in Sunghee's voice gets you the goosebumps.

    When I listend to Hyorin in her 'Hurt' cover, I was amazed by her vocal range but when I listened to sunghee's 'Then It's done' I felt like I was dreaming, she has a voice of an angel. When she sings she takes you along with her as if she is telling you a story.

  • I have never (ever) thought that KARA was having a good vocalist back then.

    Now,... uhmmm their singing is wayyyyyyyyyyy to bad.

    Sorry to say but it's the truth.

  • suck that sunghee is married was hoping she could come back to kara

  • @nadiafantastic just because she is a teacher now...you said she is better? If taeyeon have time ..she would open a music school already lol

  • @Kartoffelsalat07 sunghee is actually a lil better than taeng. she can control her voice really really well, she's able to hit both high and low notes. yes, taeng's voice is really clean, but sunghee's is even more cleaner (pardon my english lol ) btw, being a good singer doesnt mean that you know how to teach a person.

  • @WWLOVEDoubleHJ

    Hard to judge really. Her English singing is so shoddy in this vid that i can't tell if it's her singing that's unstable or if it's just because of her English. Taeng's english singing blows this away. Other vids of KSH i've seen don't seem any more impressive. Still, there is no doubt that she is a very good singer

  • @weidoha really? where and when?

    'cause every article I've ever read about it said that she left because of her studies. She'd promised her parents that she'd do well with her studies while in the group, but she failed her college exam, as well as developed health problems, so she did what her family wanted, and quit to focus on her education ._.

    love her voice, it's AMAZING <3

  • be happy that what i want for my sungja. Dont bashing anything here. I really miss your voice Sunghee ah ! ^-^ !

  • There is no use of comparing Sunghee with other kpop artists

    Sunghee is on a league of her own.

    She is getting married btw

  • her fault for failing her college entrance exams.... imiss her tho.

  • @ianuntilnow

    Get your facts right....she left the group for her religion she stated it herself

  • Her English and voice are amazing. Wow.

  • Ahh no. HOW CAN I JUST DISCOVERED SUCH GREAT ARTIST? :(

  • GO BACK TO KARA, please!

  • Damn! With this kind of talent , its a shame she dropped out :/

  • she could be a superstar if she is still in Kara.

  • Wow great voice x) Miss you Sung Hee!

  • omo i love her voice!!!!! kim sunghee come back and ives us alll some singing classes

  • love sungja! <3

    miss u a lot !!!!!!

  • shes good but not perfect, at last at this try

  • I miss you sunghee unnie :( eventhough you left the group for nearly 3 years, you're still my favorite... you will always be my sungja... <3 Waiting for your comeback... (:

  • COME BACK!!!!!

    

  • I think she needs a little bit more work on controlling her voice, other than that - it's pretty good.

  • if she stayed i think she would succeed..

  • this vid convinced me that what the people say about sung hee is correct. she is AWESOME! i still love kara, but if she could only come back. . . . . .

  • OMG, I can't believe how good she is! Too bad she left to become a Jehovah's Witness..

  • @STiMonkey its not bad at all... somethings in life are a lot more important than becoming famous... and Personally hers was to serve God... so if that is what you consider bad... then im sorry for you

  • Comment removed

  • Stop being such a self-righteous, judgmental prick. I'm not saying it's bad for her that she became a JW. If that makes her happy, good for her. I was speaking from my own perspective. That it's too bad I will no longer be able to enjoy hearing her beautiful, talented voice in a public forum. I'm sorry for you that for all that you've been taught about loving, not judging others, showing mercy, that you would resort so easily to putting others down. Is that what your religion teaches?

  • @STiMonkey you need to get a life... and dont be cursin at people you dont know... thats rude... u must have a really bad life... im sorry for u

  • @chiriquito Hey, all I said was that it's too bad she left to become a JW, because we can't hear her voice anymore. You call me rude, but you're the one that says "I'm sorry for you". You're not sorry for me. You're just being condescending and self righteous. I'm just calling you for what you are. Self righteous and judgmental. Everyone has their bad traits. I'm not trying to curse you out. Just calling it out as I see it. Why don't you try a little humility and admit your shortcomings?

  • don't bash on kara please, it's not kara's fault that she left.

  • This song doesn't work for her, the song hardly shows her true talent.

  • this song is so sad and it make it even sadder because Kara lost such a good singer sung hee and make the grp left with no powerful vocalist.

  • @rolovnariel

    it was her choice. she didn't pass the college exam..and she promised her dad if she didn't do well in her studies she would drop out of her singing career. and she kept the promise with her dad and left the entertainment business

    it's sad but lets hope she'll be back after she graduates from college.

  • I wonder what she's doing now.

  • @twistedscribbled acting and studying.

  • @twistedscribbled

    studying...in college.

    she left because she promised with her dad that if she didn't do well in her studies she'd leave the entertainment business and focus on her studies..and she failed the college exam..so she kept the promise and left

  • @chipmunky721 Actually, she became a Jehovah's Witness.

  • @YunHeeJung for what I heard she was already a Jehovas' Witness before debuting with Kara.. I don't wanna spread wrong rumors but I also heard that her school wasn't the main reason for her to quit Kara, it was this religious thing, and she even felt bad for her father since he was blamed by fans when it wasn't actually his fault,

  • @firstABtype Well, her mom was a Jehovah's Witness but she passed away few years ago and Sunghee was really sad and she started to get interested in the truth or something like that. I'm also a Jehovah's Witness and my dad's friend met her so that's how I know. And yeah, everybody is blaming it all on her father. Poor guy. :(

  • @YunHeeJung what is Jehovah's Witness?

  • @OStylents It's a Christian denomination. Hard to desribe really. But uh... Here in America, they're known for being highly evangelical. They'll walk up to random people's houses that they don't even know and try to convert them. Not saying my opinion on them, but that's what they are. I personally find it hard to believe that with as few Cristians as are in SK, that there are many Jehovah's witnesses, it's not popular a denomination here in USA.

  • @TheMandalore4 thank you for info. rumor is still rumor. ^^ .

  • @TheMandalore4 Hahaha, I like how you said 'They'll walk up to random people's houses that they don't even know and try to convert them.' Though, its kinda true. Which is why I feel uncomfortable doing that.

  • @OStylents It's a certain type of Christian.

  • @OStylents crazy religion lol ..

  • she's the best out of that group, and she sounds great live, but her english is ok.

  • but the very beginning was good :)

  • though it sounds like shes mumbling at some parts.. :\

  • @SNSDilove

    well duh she doesnt kno english

  • o.o wow i really hope she comes back into the kpop scene.... she would be great! actually has talent >;D

  • she should go solo, like seriously

  • so shaky... she shouldn't attempt Mariah Carey's song, and especially singing it in exactly Mariah's style!! she could have made it simpler by not varying the notes too much. I'm not saying she's a bad singer though, just the song is too high for her...

  • @blissfulDew

    check out other sunghee videos - you'll hear that she has range enuf - its rumored that when this video was made - she was suffering from a cold - i'm a big fan of sunghee and can testify that this isnt her at her best - i suggest searching youtube for "listen" or "music is my life" or even the supporting part she sang in "dream" with GN.E

  • KIM SUNG HEE !!!!come back plzzz!! it would be so cool that kara have six members! k-ara needs u!! i also miss their old style w/ u!

  • WTF the video of her singing 'Listen' by Beyonce was taken off. omg, that was epic, someone plz reup thnx.

  • @chris2I40 just type ikamilia, you'll see that video (;]

  • omg her voice is P-E-R-F-E-C-T

  • Sunghee, come back we miss u

  • Oh gosh, I love SungHee. Her voice is amazing, I love it. Her cover of My All is good! I hope she comes back! SungHee fighting!! Thanks for sharing.

  • @The10Sec The most pathetic statement i've ever seen.

  • why did she leave kara???

  • because her parents wanted her to go to school and get a degree and have a normal job.

  • @abercrombiexxxoooxxx She promised her parents before joining the group that she would continue to study hard while in the group. She failed her college entrance exam and so both her and her parents agreed it would be better for her if she left the group to continue studying.

  • what does she study about??

    Anyone know about it?

  • honestly, not every one can sing a Mariah song 0.o

    she's REALLY good!

  • guys its not impossibel a 6 group kara

  • T___________T i miss her so much..she was KARA's best. definitely their biggest loss...T__T unni...we'll wait for your return!

  • She, no doubt would've been KARA's influence with that wonderful voice

    At least in my opinion

    Highest hopes she returns as KARA's or herself

  • what's she doing now?

  • @chodaboy19 She's continuing her studies & she's going to make a comeback :)

  • @julieandlinda

    are you just saying that or is it a fact and it was announced

  • is she really going to make a comeback?

    when??

  • @chipmunky721 we dont know when.. but she was born to be on stage :D i believe it. she will be back. I wait for her.

  • i hope so.i recently know that she is from kara..she has wonderful voice..hope she comes back.=]

  • excellents

  • When I first listen to this song I almost had to cry... :D What a beautiful voice!

  • Kim Sung Hee can sing. She's the best singer in Kpop in my opinion, if only she didn't leave.

  • <3 Mariah Carey & Sunghee..

    I miss her. ): a lot!

    but I still love the new members too.. D: !

    Yeah, I love Park Bom, but Sung-hee can go high and can hold her notes longer than Park Bom.. ^^

    Park Bom has a nice deep voice..

    Sunghee's voice = Great overall. (:

  • nice voice she has, pity she left kara...

    i agree to those who says that she's kara's biggest lost,

    i must admit she can really beat park bom...

  • yeah. kara's lost their best vocals.

    doubt that she could beat bom? O.o

    dunno bom's voice is pretty rare.

  • she is the prettiest and the best singer of kara.

    she's kara's biggest loss

  • i miss you Sung Hee! Hope you come back to the music industry soon!! IMO Sung Hee has the best vocals in the group KARA

  • In actual fact KARA is possibly the strongest group all-round, vocally, but they lose out in terms of promotion/supporting boybands etc.

    And yes, Sunghee would knock the sh*t out of bom any day.

  • she was my fav in KARA!!!!! even though KARA is pretty good now i really wish that she was here!!!!

  • Shes got a good voice, and better looking than the other chicks.

  • she would be the next big thing in k-pop...but hell..damn it..-.- she is damn good looking....and has amazing voice......

  • um LOVE the Sox hat she's wearing. Chicago, REPRESENT!

  • man i just found out bout kara and bout sunghee being an ex member. its a shame i missed her :( i wish i knew bout kara before. ugh. she should at least come sing a song now and then! maybe even do a duet with the best singers in each girl group! taeyeon, sunye, sunghee, and all the others. that'll b so cool :D

  • she should have started her career as a singer?!?!

  • she pwns EVERYONE out of any other korean idol girl group especially in kara, i think her vocals are like in another dimension compared to gyuri and seungyeon, who i consider "best" in kara now (though they don't stand a chance against the lead vocalist of for example snsd or wg)

  • She does pwn everyone out of all girlgroups. Im not being biased, but I think she is better than Taeyeon because taeyeon has a mid range through her vocals and it usually doesnt fit songs such as Mariah carey or Beyonce songs. Sunye and Yeun have a better range and I believe they can take the high notes pretty well. Compared to Park Bom, bom has a unique voice but Sunghee will out due her in any ballad.

  • @elleymax I wouldn't say that ;/ Taeyeon may have a really good voice but I think Nicole and Seungyeon fair well with Jessica and Tiffany. Hara isn't the best singer and Jiyoung does have a really good voice imo.

  • @elleymax Well if she was still with KARA, she would be around the same level as Taeyeon & Jessica of SNSD. KARA lost something HUGE. If her parents knew that KARA will become big like now, they would've never pull her out. It's all fate.

  • @uyenous they should have still added Jing and Hara, they impulsed KARA a lot, but with Sunghee those 6 would be the best!!! still please everyone keep supporting KARA, it's not like it was KARA's fault her withdrawal.

  • @nenauchiha22 I know. But it's all fate. If she didn't get withdrawal, than the other two would've never joined. But of course I'll always keep supporting KARA & Kim Sung Hee.

  • @uyenous Actually I'm pretty sure her dad would have still taken her out of Kara because her father didn't really want her to be a singer but a lawyer or something of that career. Plus if Sunghee was still in Kara then she wouldn't be able to get married to that guy she's going to get married to.

  • This video doesn't do her justice. Watch her sing 'Crossroad' and you'll be blown away, even more.

  • Sorry, not crossroad ^^; 'LIsten' by Beyoncé.

  • why did she leave?! SHES AMAZING.

  • read the info. tells why

  • When did she leave the group??

  • Her grades were dropping while she was in the group and she even failed her college entrance exam. So her parents forced her to leave the group =/

  • great great great. One of the best vocals I've heard in Korea. We miss you Seunghee!

  • bring her back...into my bed.

    LOL

    no seriously though. bring her back. now. do it.

  • wow she is really good u cant doubt that! :)

  • IF she was still with KARA, I can honestly say she would be the one to beat for the title of 'best female idol singer'. And this is coming from an SNSD fan. Maybe this video doesn't do complete justice. But watch some of her recent videos. They are like woooooahh. *silence*.

  • @chris2I40 no...she cant beat taeyeon.....taengo has much better technic to control her voice..and both of them are in the same age.....but taeyeon..was way a head of her..at that time...if you want to compared them..but she is good..cant denied it...if she stay longer in the business..then I think she would be better through time

  • @Kartoffelsalat07 if you compare them during their debut year whichis 2007 in terms of technique and control i must say that Sunghee is better than Taeyeon it shows in every performance of old KARA

  • she was great! oh, an d she has a white sox hat on ! lol! cool! shes awsome!!!!!!!!

  • good job

  • Dang. What a waste. She could really sing. Please bring her back.

  • sung hee should be a solo singer..he voice beats the rest...i hope sung hee goes back to singin.all of us million fans will support your decisions either study or singin,we fans support every road you cross...we love the way you sing,we love the way you talk, we love the way you act, but most of all,WE LOVE YOU SUNG HEE!!!you an you alone...not gyuri,hara,ji young,seungyeon or nicole but YOU!!!

  • i hope she comes back too!! her voice does beat the rest of them! so sad. i love kara, though, and i don't think they get enough credit.

  • usually i side with the parents when they say you should focus on studies rather than stardom (an example would be the wonder girls--since they dont really have talent, their songs are just famous cause theyre catchy) but in sunghee's case i think they made a big mistake. she actually has an incredible voice. its a real shame she had to leave ):

  • lol. she's very talented, but i think sun ye and ye eun are very good singers from wondergirls.

  • oh my bad. i agree, sunye can sing really well actually. i was talking about like sohee and one other girl that i dont know the name of..? the ones that quit school.

  • who cares about studies with a voice like her's? Anyone can do that but not everyone can sing like she does. She was BORN to be a singer.

  • SUNG HEE!!! I miss you being in Kara. I like the old kara better than the new and I think Sung Hee is the prettiest in the group [my opinion]

  • she's good in singing for the level of koreans most especially when it comes to english songs..?

    but there are still notes that she didn't reached so well..and some high notes were shouts..

    but i still think she's good.. i hope she could come back to kara..it makes me remember their Brake It song and her high notes really amaze me..:)

  • she's damn good

  • damn. i miss her.

    it's too sad she had to leave the group.

    she's greeaaaat! and i mean, GREAT!

  • If she comes back as a solo singer I'll support her. She's really talented

  • she's suitable for a solo singer,she's too outstanding in Kara ^^

  • i totally think she will hit solo

    she has the personality to be solo and clearly vocals as welll

  • i really do hope and wish that she comes back .. i really miss her so much

  • She's working as a vocal trainer right now.

  • I miss her!!!

    Sung Hee!! Come Back!!! X3

  • she's like my favourite in the old kara too bad she left :(...she's talented...she sings this song well although her diction and english still needs work...but she can really sing

  • i dont think kara is worthy enough to have a singer like her

    she should either go solo or she should be in a better and more talented group to match her vocals cuz clearly this girls got talent.

  • why did she leave the group in the first place?

  • she left because she failed her college entrance exam (she was too busy with kara)

  • waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. so good.

    kara is way better if she's still in kara.

    her voice is so strong. way better than the combined voices of the two new members.
