Sung Bong Choi an ordinary young man with gifts, his heart and voice.
Humbled with friendship
Friends across the way
As I am very stumped over people telling me that Sung Bong Choi is not marketable.
I question that.
I am not sure because he is from Korea and not K-pop or is it the fact that
he is not "Dramatic" and would cause problems like those stupid reality shows.
For myself, I am not part a music company nor a singer.
They say numbers matter and if this doesn't show something that
people enjoyed Sung Bong Choi's performance I don't know what to say.
When I saw his performance and the young artist talk about his life growing
up, it moved me.
That has stuck with me.
If you don't know the story, just watch the video on Korea's Got Talent
and before you do make sure you grab a tissue.
Sung Bong Choi was born in Korea and at the age of 5 left the
orphanage because of abuse.
He slept on the streets and sold energy drinks to survive.
His bed was bathroom stalls.
A gang took him one time to a mountain and dug a grave
and I don't want to talk to much about that incident, but
they left him there.
Sung Bong Choi survived because of a "dream".
He wanted to sing.
What he listened to was someone singing and
I think it was classical type music.
When he went on the show, Korea's Got Talent,
no one was expecting him and his beautiful voice.
Look and watch the shocked reactions from the judges
about Sung Bong Choi's life.
Yet, he stays humbled and is kind.
Now he does have a place to sleep and has two kitties.
Sung Bong Choi also gets to work on his dream.
He is still waiting to be signed and is working hard on his
music to make his dream happen.
I had reached out to Sung Bong Choi and talking with
people in his production team and invited Sung Bong Choi
and a translator on a show I do, which is on the radio off
the internet, because I support him.
He has been trying to learn english but I know that
from watching and seeing his progress he has been doing
good.
I just wish I was someone in the music business because
myself I would sign him.
For now I can be his friend and try to help out as much as I can.
I always believe that people should at least get a chance to do their
dream.
For now, I will help my friend the best way I can.
That is with care and support
I will just try my best.
