Latest obsession: 김범수 (Kim Bum Soo)

---

Saturday night, I went to a concert that affected me a lot.

김범수 (Kim Bum Soo) was AMAZING....

He's been on this reality TV show in Korea called "I Am a Singer" for about 5 months and he just finished his time on the show so now he's on tour all over the country.

Here's a sample of what he can do:

The show's concept is simple. Take 7 singers and give them weekly challenges. Audience members vote to keep their favorites. The rules have changed slightly since the show started, but that's the gist.

김범수 won a few times and his singing has really improved. I watched some really old clips of him from the early 2000s and it's very different. I mostly admire him because he's such a good singer: supported, controlled vocals, amazing interpretation. He's also a really energetic performer. Even his dancing has improved. He just works hard at what he does. I wish I had half the drive he does....

BEST concert I've been to this year (and I've been to a lot...). This was even better than Rain, and some friends know how much I love Rain, but 김범수 is at another level. Rain is a great dancer, but the singing could be better.

I got almost all of 김범수's albums over the weekend. I think I'm missing one or two more, but there's always internet shopping...hehehe. Please check him out!!
