We  may  use  so  or  such  in  exclamations.  We  don’t  need  to  add  the  conjunction  ‘that’  in
                     exclamation sentences. The following are the patterns.

                        1)  The determiner ‘such’ is followed by a noun phrase.
                            Examples:
                                •  You are such a brave man!
                                •  You have such weird taste!

                        2)  The adverb ‘so’ is followed by an adective.
                            Examples:
                                •  You are so cute!
                                •  It’s so dark outside!

               the same language target, that’s the use of  “Causal Relationship (‘so...that...’ and ‘such...that...’).
