- "저 가수는 어떻게 노래합니까?"

Oh, I don't know... Maybe with their vocal cords like most people do? Just a thought. :)
Is it possible to put 어떻게 in front or would that interrupt the sentence structure?

From my understanding, this sentence means "in what way does that singer sing".
저: that over there 가수는: singer (가수 + 는 = 가수는; singer [as the topic]) 어떻게: using what kind of method 노래합니까: sing (노래 + 합니까 = 노래합니까 [as a question & is formal])
that singer over there [uses] what [kind of] method to sing?
Okay. This could be how it should be asked. I understand it more this way. Otherwise I am thinking it should say How does that singer sings? Why do I need the s at the end of sing?
If that's true, I'm a professional (just show me a spider or a cockroach) XD
I think you got something mixed up. 저 stays 저 in 저기. But 그 changes to 거 in 거기. And none of these mean "here". "Here" is 여기 in which 이 transforms into 여.
I learned using 그 can be "that" or as "the" to say we are speaking about "the" singer not "a"singer.
But, I do not recall 저 serving as "the".
Is this question asking more like how physically the singer sings, like how they are able to ("how can they do that?"), or asking in what way it is they sing like; "are they good or bad," "do they have a high voice," etc?

From my understanding, this sentence is asking "in what way does that singer sing", or what kind of method is used.
어떻게: using what kind of method
"That singer over there uses what kind of method to sing?"

Why is 저 used instead of 그 ? So the english translation should be "How does that singer over there sing?" (저 가수는 어떻게 노래함니까? )
