Strengths/Achievements Able to support his voice appropriately Mixed voice is supported up to F#4/G4 Lower range has good tone and projects well down to Eb3 Pitch is consistently good apart from runs Able to harmonize well Falsetto can be relaxed and is generally projected Nasality is not usually present Good placement is generally achieved Open throated and supported notes are often produced Weaknesses Transitions into falsetto can be sloppy Runs are often messy and pitchy Below Eb3, tone becomes lost Voice becomes thinner and headier above G4 Tone is often shrill in his mixed voice High larynx above G4 Vibrato is often too quick Falsetto can be unstable Jaw and tongue tension present Registers Lower register: The lower range is often neglected and not used often. He sacrifices tone for style often and support is only brought down to Eb3. Anywhere below that, tone becomes airy and muffled. Mixed register: Mixed voice is produced with good placement and support up to G4 with certain consistency. Above G4 generally sings with a tighter throat, high larynx and the mixed voice becomes much more head dominant. Upper register: The falsetto register is often placed in his nose or mask and is not very well connected. He has issues with producing a full tone, more head voice-like upper range and he often sounds shrill in his falsetto. Agility

Zhoumi has a generally light voice with a very light approach that allows him to sing through difficult and high passages for a longer period of time without as much weight being carried. Having said that, his understanding of vocal agility often becomes vague when it comes to more complex runs. He doesn’t often sing runs and doesn’t borrow much of his style from R&B, staying more true to a ballad singer approach to sings, which could explain why when he does attempt runs they often come out messy and pitchy without a clear sense of direction in his musical ideas, such as in “放手 (Let Go)“, “I Will Always Love You” and “只要你快樂“. He has developed over the years a sense of pitch that allows him to break down slow and quick runs without as much effort, being able to sing each note clearly with an acceptable flow, such as in “Because Of You” and “家後“, although the rhythmic approach could still use more freedom and more of a “bounce”.

Overall analysis

Debuting as an addition to Super Junior in 2008, as part of their Chinese sub-unit, Super Junior-M, Zhoumi has been a member of SM Entertainment for years and has even debuted as a solo artist under the company in 2014. His voice generally carries very little weight and is very bright in tone. With a youthful tone, placed generally high in range, it is not far fetched to categorize Zhoumi as most likely a light lyric tenor.
