Actor Song Kang's piano skills are drawing attention due to his role as genius pianist Kang Bi-oh in the tvN drama 'Four Hands'. To achieve natural performance scenes in the drama, Song Kang took piano lessons for several months prior to filming and has previously showcased his piano playing at fan meetings. It is known that his mother is a piano teacher, and he learned up to Czerny 40 in his childhood.
The professional piano performances in the drama 'Four Hands' were played by pianist Park Ju-young as a stand-in. Song Kang was so immersed in his practice that he reportedly said, 'My forearms burn more when playing the piano than when working out.' He even gave up military leave to continue his piano lessons. He meticulously checked his posture by recording himself on his phone to ensure visual perfection. Lee Jun-young also practiced by memorizing entire pieces.
Bloggers commend Song Kang's serious attitude and dedication to his piano acting. Many found it impressive that he prepared not only the sound but also the hand shapes and postures visible on camera. There is also an opinion that the collaboration with professionals and the cross-editing technique effectively enhanced immersion.
