I am awed by the vocal range, control, versatility, phrasing,
interpretation and choice of songs with memorable musicality and well written
and crafted poetry of a young Australian-Korean (ex-KPop) singer Jang Han-Byul.
Through voice and projection, he dramatizes the pain of separation in
covering Adele's "Someone like you" sometimes it lasts in love and
sometimes it hurts instead. For me it's not over . . . "

Pain of rejection in Bruno Mar's "Grenade" where "I
would die for you but you wouldn't do the same." https://youtu.be/jIeaneOc-jQ
A gloomy "Story of my life"
by One Direction. "My heart is unbroken but still
untamed."
https://youtu.be/CdknvJM-Z6c
Struggling with "Demons" inside interpreting Imagine Dragons
"When you feel the heat, just look into my eyes. It's where the demons
hide. Don't get too close, it's dark inside" https://youtu.be/PgA136Vu-YI
And the hopeful and my favorite "Counting Stars" of One
Republic where he shows singing prowess interpreting the melody of these lines
"Old but not that old, young but not that bold," "I feel something
so right by doing the wrong things, I feel something so wrong by doing the
right things." "Everything that kills me makes me feel alive."
Hope comes in the line "no more counting dollars, we'll be counting
stars." https://youtu.be/-o5x0SiyegQ
Jan Han-Byul is a talented young artist who conveys his music through
his voice though covers but expressed well, very well. He sings in English,
French, Korean, Japanese. Currently, he is wowing audiences in Malaysia and
India.
Listen to his interpretation to my initial selection of familiar songs.
(Studio recordings best appreciated on Smart TV with a sound bar)

The struggle of an aspiring KPop artist. Parents' view and the pressure on Jang Hanbyul https://youtu.be/qgVCdBYd0bk
Undoubtedly talented, intelligent and creative, there is so much pressure for Jang Hanybrul to succeed for his parents and associates. His parents sacrificed their own lives to support their only son's passion for singing. Jang Hanbyul from his videos has been doing everything to decode the formula for stardom. Only destiny will determine if he gets the big break.
For now, I may have deconstructed the motivation for the intensity of his interpretation of struggle songs particularly Story of My Life.
"Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage
I know that in the morning now
I'll see us in the light upon a hill
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed"
Good luck Hanbyul. Keep track on your professional growth.
