What the Drama Is About
Four Hands, Two Sonatas follows two students who meet at an elite arts high school and grow from teenage rivals and friends into adult professional pianists. It’s a coming-of-age story built around friendship, romance, and rivalry — all set against the high-pressure world of classical piano.
Song Kang stars as Kang Pio, a piano prodigy raised in a family of artists and already tipped as his school’s next big talent. But being the golden boy doesn’t win him universal popularity — some classmates are openly hostile toward him.
The New Stills: A Cafeteria Standoff
Newly released stills show Kang Pio sitting alone at lunch when a group of unfriendly classmates shows up specifically to mock him. That’s when his childhood friend, Hong Jae In (played by Jang Gyuri), steps in — confronting the bullies head-on to defend him.
