Popular actor Song Kang is set to make a highly anticipated return to the screen following his military discharge this October. On June 30, it was reported that the star has been cast in the lead role of the upcoming drama Four Hands.
The drama takes its name from a piano duet technique where two players perform on a single instrument, and the story will reflect the harmony and tension that comes with such a performance. Set in an arts-focused high school, Four Hands follows a group of talented youth as they navigate the emotional highs and lows of friendship, rivalry, young love, and personal growth. The narrative will trace their evolution from teenagers to adults, offering a coming-of-age tale through a creative lens.
Song Kang will take on the role of a brilliant but emotionally layered piano prodigy. This marks his first project post-enlistment and is expected to showcase a deeper, more refined performance from the actor, highlighting his growth both personally and professionally.
Often dubbed the “Netflix Prince,” Song Kang captured international attention with his performances in fan-favorite K-dramas such as Love Alarm, Nevertheless, and Sweet Home. Although he enlisted in April 2023, fans still saw glimpses of him through pre-recorded works like Sweet Home 3, I-LAND 2, and a cameo appearance in The Runaway.
With production for Four Hands already in motion, fans and critics alike are eager to witness Song Kang’s next chapter in this heartfelt musical drama.
