  • I'd like to see JustinFUCKINGbieber do that

  • wow i could not understand his words but his voice was beautiful and with AaronDESERTFOX's translation i got teary eyed, hope this young man makes it cant imagine anyone else deserving it more

  • I THINK THIS GUY HAS REAL HEART AND HOPE HE DOES WELL. SOME POSTERS HAVE ACCUSED ME OF BIGOTRY AND WORSE BECAUSE I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS BRAVE YOUNG MAN IS ENRICO CARUSO. A FEW DAYS AGO I HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF HEARING THIS YOUNG MAN SING ELVIS PRESLEY'S "MY WAY" IN ENGLISH. LISTEN TO THAT ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND THEN FORM AN OPINION.

    "ANAZIO" TO ALL MY KOREAN FRIENDS. I WISH YOU WELL

  • DID YOU REALLY READ MY COMMENT ? I AM A FORMER PROFESSOR OF ASIAN STUDIES, TRAVEL TO KOREA ALL THE TIME, LOVE THE KOREAN PEOPLE. AND SPEAK SOME KOREAN. KOREANS ARE AMONG MY CLOSEST FRIENDS. AT UNIVERSITY MY BEST FRIEND WAS KOREAN. HE SANG BEAUTIFULLY AND I MISS HIM TERRIBLY. I AM ALSO A TRAINED SINGER, HAVING PERFORMED IN MORE THAN ONE OPERA. II AGREE THAT THE YOUNG MAN HAS POTENTIAL, BUT HE IS NOT WHERE HE WILL GET WITH GOOD TUTORS. LEARN TO READ BEFORE PASSING JUDGEMENT ON STRANGERS.

  • @1manuscriptman I'm a Professor as well in Korean language and Foreign Affairs. No where have I heard of you and your works. You must be one of those "wanna-be's" who pretend to be something they are not....so sad.

  • WHILE MY SYMPATHY AND BEST WISHES ARE WITH THIS YOUNG MAN, IT IS UNFAIR TO COMPARE HIM TO BOYLE. HE HAS SUFFERED GREATLY AND HE IS A GOOD SINGER, NOT A GREAT ONE. THIS IS WHY THE JUDGES ASKED IF HE HAD LESSONS AND IF HE WISHED TO HAVE THEM IF HE LOST THE SHOW. NO ONE SAID ANYTHING OF THE SORT TO BOYLE ! KOREANS ARE A VERY SENTIMENTAL PEOPLE, AND LOVE SAD SONGS. MANY OF MY KOREAN FRIENDS SANG BEAUTIFULLY AND FROM THE HEART. NEVER GO ON AFTER A KOREAN IN A TALENT SHOW !

  • @1manuscriptman If you lack emotion in your being you will not produce a sound worthy of listening to. As a classicly trained singer I can tell you he is more than good with having no lessons. Leave your anger in the past if you lost to a korean you obviously lacked what was needed for you to win. Some people have it and others don't it is that simple. Blind and subtle racism do not aid you in your rallying sympathy. Music cares not for race, creed, or religeon. It comes from the soul....period.

  • he touch my heart...with his very amazing voice....

  • not as better as actually listening to him PERSONALLY

  • omg, you break all girls hearths:))

  • The best voice i ever heard.

  • thumbs up, amaizing song

  • Cried a lot! :'(

  • 1:36 I cry

  • these "got talent" shows would have been a lot better & more entertaining if it wasn't for those "soap-opera" singing shits. Just because someone knows how to sing and tell a touching story doesn't mean that he/she got talent. All of the singing stuff should have been removed from the show completely, since they are so damn boring.

  • @bta1987 actually knowing how to sing DOES mean u have talent. don't be a hater, because you cant sing. just support people for the good they can do.

  • @bta1987 its talent.. can you tell me any people who "sing" in that way? I mean bro you go stick with justin beibers dick OK? talent is talent... you shouldve known more about it.. lol

  • i cried when i watch this video..

  • is anybody sad i crying i 9 a boy coe on dont lye

  • I really think this is fake:

    1- I can't believe that the jury doesn't know the background of the people. It would be just retarded.

    2- The boy's story sounds like a Ken Loach movie. It looks like Koreans saw Paul Potts and said, ok, we can make up a more miserable character.

    3- The bums in my town can't spell properly their mother tongue... Foreign languages are out of question.

    4- 2:11... Ok, that vibrato technique it requires hours and hours of classical training, it's not genetical.

  • @Lgw1984

    such stories are there for their wisdom and to get the best out of their essence.

    even if what your saying is true, such stories even if fairy tales are always great as a reality check, they are a reminder of how blessed we are , having a family , a roof above our heads, not worrying whether we'll get the chance to eat or we'll spend the next two days hungry wondering when our next meal is.

    be greatfull my good friend

  • @Lgw1984 no its real, watch the long version.

  • Did he win? Someone please anwser me. :)

  • @Xanadug unfortunately he did not win, damn only 2nd place, im pretty pissed too

  • It's the fuckin Catalina wine mixer!!!

  • press 6 for a slap in the judge face

  • If ever their was a video to end racism this it it. It proves that the exact same gimmicks work on every nationality. We are all just as dumb as each other.

  • that shows how fake those formats are. how can be that a homeless can sing italian, that's ridiculous.

  • @fgrion perhaps your own lack of perseverance and modern laziness shows through more in your own comment than the potential fakeness of these shows.. and it is to be said I think a lot of this crap is staged/ played up but really think about that when backed against a wall often comes the most incredible results/talent/ etc

  • @boomblind12 I have 2 jobs, and work 12 hours a day, I have a mastear at university so I guess laziness is not one of the words to describe me. So in your opinion this guy living on the street can sing at this street? that shows you've never been in any music academy or similar. So, watch youtube, it will make you a better person

  • @fgrion ujelly?

  • @cornpotatoman sorry what language is that? I can speak only english, german and italian.

  • @fgrion Korean..

  • My fricken eyes are welled up here boy! great show.

  • is it the complete translations?

    Please submit to lugiman2009@gmail.com.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Korean always puts up job, Soccer baseball and so on.

    Ass country

  • HOLY SHIT where did he get dat voice from! Best of luck to him

  • i cry.

  • So fucking high...

  • thanks for posting this and allowing comments, really interesting to see what ppl had to say.......what a remarkable person and spirit

  • 26 people have no soul

  • no person with any humanity or heart could not like this. It is beautiful just as he is. How can people be so heartless as to treat other humas beings as he was treated. Shame on his parents for putting him in an orphanage. He desereve far better than them. His voice is like heaven on earth

  • amazing man

  • photoshopped

  • @Korflog666 how do u photoshop a voice? What are u talking about?

  • photoshopped

  • FUCKING ONIONS.

  • i said i wouldnt cry i did omg it was so sad i cryed for hours so i took an arrow to the knee

  • Absolutely astonishing.

  • Paul Potts , Susan Boyle , Sung-bong Choi ....

    It just hits you from nowhere and leaves you speachless

    Well done dude !!!

  • it's amazing...

  • LOL i get it now, opens a new tab and plays WTF BOOM when he is done singing LMAO

  • I DONT GET IT! Thumbs DOWN!

  • Who did not love the middle judge's face when she first heard his voice, lol?

  • What's the name of this song...

  • @thesilentone13

    Nella fantasia - by Ennio Morricone ;)

  • ..i cried so much..i could hear the sadness in his voice as he sang

  • An Asian Tenor? Wooooooow vive quella fantasia.

  • Wonderful!

  • all wommen cry... yes i know its only wommen;) but this gay can sing.. this is a second susan boyle from UK only this is a man.. wouw his story and the preformes..... makes me happy

  • this is realy genius. his story... this beautyfull voice.... i like to meet this gay,,,

  • Ya know, I don't care how tough a person claims to be, this story just leaves a little lump in all our throats. The kid is unbelievable and amazing.

  • I bet his parent s are sorry they left him at an orphanige now, he's gona be a star

  • this is real talent

  • haha the facial expressions on the judges...absolutely priceless

  • 3:05 I love this! I think this judge is a famous professional musician. It looks like she's trying not to show too much emotion but the song and this young guy's story moved her like it did everybody else.

  • He didnt get a standing ovation for that? What a crowd.

  • Translation of Song:

    In my imagination I see a fair world, everyone lives in peace and honesty there.

    I dream of souls that are always free like the clouds that fly,

    Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.

    In my imagination I see a bright world, even the night is less dark.

    I dream of souls that are always free like clouds.

    In my imagination there exists a warm wind that breathes on the cities, like a friend.

    I dream of souls that are always free,

    Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.

  • @AaronDESERTFOX  hey thanks for posting the lyrics

  • @AaronDESERTFOX woah! PURE POETRY!!!

  • Comment removed

  • 1:40 loool THE GUY judge is like WTFF??? :P

  • you know i have got no idea what he's singing about lol , but it dosent matter with that kind of music and voice i believe it's something much more beautiful than anything can be described , you just look at him and the best part of him is the simplicity , usually such shows seem scripted , this and that , but he just goes on telling his story you know, it's not about the TRP , about the emotion factor , whatever , it's all about doing what you love ,

    I hope you will be a big star one day

  • Gyönnyörű hang! Igazi tehetség! További sok sikert.

  • The judge lady at the end-she's not Koeran is she? Who is she?

  • @faith2future She's a Korean. Its an Amerasian (half white/Asian).

  • @jaredboo1 Do you know what her name is?

  • that kid.... oh my god.... speechless 

  • I wouldn't call him Korea's Susan Boyle, they had totally different lives.

  • Good Kid,Natural Talent.rising sunery Humble.

  • she wanna hug him because he have talent?

  • you are amazing and we all love you, may your future be bright, because you deserve it.Marie

    France

  • if the sob story is true this audition is legendary. Its about time the human spirit got a hold of people and people share good vibes. it also shows off the way people can treat each other which is a shame. By the way, anyone know the name of the opera song played for a few seconds at the end? By the way if its another case of vunerable people being used for tv well shame on them

  • Does anyone know what Choi is up to now? I Googled him and there doesn't seem to be any update on whether he's working with a record label or anything. If he did put out a CD, I'd definitely be the first in line! This kid is aces in my book! :)

  • @abracrow1000 he signed a contract with sony ~ but dont know the rest he's received donation from all over the world through paypal my best guess he does not have to live in a same life as he did . and besides he is old enough to work or go to join police department or military

  • who can translate that song in english ?

  • stop making that stupid comments about who disliked, we all know that you post it because you want on the top of comments, f*ck you it is not funny just enjoy this video ffs

  • I think this is even more awesome than Susan Boyles' story ;D

  • i love this guy when I heard this for the first i cried

  • diosssssssss q' voz¡

  • how to get the lyrics? he singing in korean?or European?

  • @vswpsoon

    In my imagination there exists a warm wind,

    That breathes on the cities, like a friend.

    I dream of souls that are always free,

    Like clouds that fly,

    Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.

  • @vswpsoon that's the translation from italian

  • Wow, i cannot even explain what i have just watched, this guy touched me in the heart :( eventhough im a guy, i wanted to go up and give him a hug as well

  • Justin beiber fans did not like him.... They like shitty songs which he can sing..... Love this guy hats off

  • muy triste ,me iso llorar

  • You know when people say he or she sings like an angle, he sure does.

  • jamas superare a este hombre

  • This guy is going to go far ...I would be happy to sponsor him in the United States!

  • He got in second place sadly :(

  • Does anyone know if he is the winner??? He make me cry... I already loved him as my own brother...

  • middle judge is hot

  • robots disliked this, they have no emotions.

  • @PILIF1983 Robots have no emotions so they neither like or dislike...they are indifferent.

  • @EtherealZaftig you are right, Futurama distorted the beliefs I have about robots :)

  • @PILIF1983 Japan? lololololololololol

  • Lol w Korei też maja TVN :p

  • who the fuck dare to dislike this?? r u emotionaly retarded? 

  • Justin Bieber's penis is smaller than the size of the dislike bar. In Soviet Russia, song sing u. Chuck Norris is somehow related to this song. Lady Gaga sucks. Thumbs up if *insert obvious bullshit here*. My parents thought I was watching porn. 337,369 views and 1000 of likes!? press 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 or 9 & thumbs up. I hate ads and I'm thankful that porno doesn't have them. I pee in the side of the bowl to make less noise!

    There.Now you only have to read one comment

  • Choi Sung-Bong is truly inspirational and an amazing singer. I seriously hope someone signs him on and gives him a recording contract. I would love to hear more songs by him. I would also like to see him interviewed on Ellen Degeneres talk show.

  • I Think SHe Was A Good SInger She Had MaNy Bad ThingS HappenEd AND I JusT Like It ?? ?

  • Choi even thou you didn't win the KGT but you are the winner in my heart

    You made my hair stiff you bring me tears

    you are the best

    hope your future life will be million times better

  • Hope David Foster will take him into his fold.

  • :(

  • omfg w000t i found the new korean justing biebeuurrrr

  • il ma fait vraiment pleurer il a un grand talent il est different des autres

  • omfg bless him

  • He's not a new susan boyle, he's just SUNG-BONG CHOI

  • I really enjoyed thus humble young man's voice. What an incredible life story also. His voice brought tears too my eyes. An extraordinary talent.

  • Do you want to know how Sung Bong's doing lately?  Where he's now; his thoughts and plans for the future? Want to see more pictures and videos of him other than those you haveseen at KGT? Do you want to send him a message that he will actually read (translated in Korean), and , depending on his time, may even get response from him (in English)? We who are friends and supporters of SB have been interacting at Facebook - Choi Sung Bong Fan Page - with 47,000+ hits. Why not join in.

  • pglflatbush

    It boggles my mind, how anyone could ever say something negative about this brilliant young man. The reaction from the panel and the audience even made watching this video so much better, Hopefully, he'll make more videos for us to enjoy!

  • I can't believe that he ended up 2nd :(

    HOW COULD PEOPLE BE SO HEARTLESS?

  • woow, he seems amazing and i can just sense a warm personality and humbleness! amazing signer, hope he will get a better life then he has been living and wish him all luck, he really deserves it!^^

  • Even out of the pit of inhumanity comes a light that is bright and it shines and makes a path to find its way out. Amazing, just amazing, it proves that we have and can make choices in our lives, he's living proof....great job!

  • This guy inspires me. He showed me no matter how much of a shitty life you have. There is always something out there for you. A hobby, a place. Anything. And it doesn't matter how good you are. As long as you enjoy it.

  • He looks so peaceful when he sings - like he's somewhere else far away.

  • He touched my heart! thank you from Japan!

  • He was 2nd on final. I just finished watching it live. The first position was a dancer.

  • YOUR FANS HERE IN THE PHILIPPINES IS PRAYING FOR YOU, WIN OR LOST, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE STAR IN OUR HEARTS ..... GO SUNG-BONG CHOI! WE LOVE YOU!

  • <3

  • For someone to go through that much hardship in life and still exhibit amazing talents like this.. he must truly be superhuman. Simply WOW!!!

  • pglflatbush

    I've watched this video many times, and it brings tears to my eyes every time. Oh how I wish this young fella a bright and happy life! I lived on the subways in NYC for 30 days when I ran away from an abusive father, so I can relate. The difference is, I can't sing! What a beautiful voice! The 2 gals on the panel show alot of class!

  • Estas personas como él son como angelitos en nuestra tierra...Muy bello!

  • The history is fake. Got talent is a TV show.

  • @MrJorpace so poor life `~~

  • @MrJorpace Yes, its a TV show, but its a REALITY show, dumbass. They show real people, not actors.

  • @MrJorpace "Due to his immense exposure and the popularity, Choi's background has been intensely searched and verified by Netizens and South Korean media".. Im sure this would have been a very controversial issue had it been a fake. Its almost impossible to hide something distributed as globally as this from the media.

  • @MrJorpace ....what?

  • @MrJorpace how do you know its fake or not? you obviously think everything is fake , but you gatta know how to think in positve way...

  • @MrJorpace The American ones are. In South Korea, internet technology is about a 1000 times more advanced than the U.S. (per household on average is A LOT higher) The korean people would've bashed them if they were lying about his background

  • MY GOD!! VERY NICE

  • People who dislike this... are fucking retarded

  • I don't think he can be compared to Susan Boyle.

    Susan had the shock factor. She wasn't very attractive and didn't have much of a story to tell. Her voice was a surprise, but wasn't amazing imo.

    Sung-bong, on the other hand, is different. He has a story. His voice is beautiful, elegant and comes from the soul. You can actually feel the passion in his voice, which is why it makes it so moving.

  • omg who the hell cares

  • Comment removed

  • @theMichalek02 yeah! Like you said.I,for one care,and cried a lot while watching this.fuckin' heartless bastards

  • @JohanGranlof if they have heart, then they care. Unlike a person who only know how to type a negative thought on interent.

  • Crying TT__TT

  • @minhwan0iforever  me too.... :'(

  • wowo^____________^

  • OMG i had chills and i still have. this man has a amazing voice. i loved it it was the most wonderful voice i've ever heard.

  • KGT, The final Aug20, 2011 Sat 11Pm Local Time. Award $300.000 Plus New Car, and a contract with SONY music intertainment.

  • english translation of the song please

  • Amazing that there are people who still buy that same ridiculous catch over and over and over again... lol

  • lot of KOREAN SING VERY WELL THEY ARE SO AMAZING

  • 16 people are retarded for disliking this video.

  • like this song!!. Check out also Javier Fontana 's version of this song it is brilliant.
