Profile

Lee Soo Young is mostly known for her ballads. People are attracted to her soft, calm, and soothing style of singing. After debuting in 1999, she’s risen to the top of the Korean music scene.

Her hit debut "I Believe" catapulted her into the top artists. In 1995 she won a contest singing Yoo Jae Ha's "sarang hah kee ddae moon eh". Soon after, many established musicians were willing to help her with the creation of her first album. The most influential help coming from Park Young Chan.

Her song was an instant hit all around Asia because of the oriental-ish qualities. Many artists remade the song in their own native tongue. Her second album was just as good. Ever relentless, she promoted her second album right after finishing it (released February 2001).

Asked what inspired her, she states she sings from the heart. She lost her father when she was still in elementary school and then her mother died in her senior year of high school, both in car accidents. Her music was the only way to express her sadness. Lee Ji Yuhn is her real name, but because there was already a singer by that name, she went with Lee Soo Young.

My Thoughts

Lee Soo Young has a beautiful voice that reminds me a bit of BoA. A lot of LSY’s successful songs are ballads. Her songs are powerful and have amazing melodies. One of my favorite songs is I am Free. Please listen to the samples below and enjoy!
