K-actor Song Kang Set to Return From Military Service with Offer to Star in K-drama Four Hands
So Song Kang being in the military has totally been out of sight out of mind for me. He was ubiquitous in drama after drama for the three years prior to enlisting and most of them with Netflix, garnering him the nickname of Netflix’s Son. He was always serviceable for me but I agree that he’s not a strong actor, and I doubt nearly two years in the army will magically improve his acting. But whatever clout he had in getting cast in so many projects is clearly there still because K-ent is reporting that he’s gotten the offer to be the male lead in K-drama Four Hands, where he will be playing a piano prodigy. The drama is set to film in October 2025 soon after he is discharged.
I have only seen him in the first season of Love Alarm, which I really disliked, same as his character. I haven’t come across any other drama of his that interested me enough.
Song Kang’s rise to fame from a single role in an early Netflix original that barely anyone watched needs to be studied. I’ve never seen anyone get this big in such a short time and what fixation does Netflix itself have with him is a mystery. If he worked tirelessly before enlistment it’s going to be even more post military. He has to regain all his CFs and make use of the gap left by Cha Eunwoo’s enlistment. I can already see him being even more popular post military with his bulk up.
Sorry to say that he’s been always a miss to me. He reminds me of a lot of Chinese idol drama actors who can’t act neither have visuals my cup of tea.
@Somebody Cha Eun Woo is another name that reminds me of certain Chinese actors, but at least, he has impressive (flower boy) visuals.
By the way, do you like Namkoong Min?
He needs to learn how to control his body when he acts. I, a normal person, can twitch in front of the camera when I have to recite a memorized line, but he’s a “professional”, he needs to get his body under control. He does look amazing in a crop top. Lol
I quite like him as an actor. Horses for courses obviously.
I think he is a terrific actor and I love all his movies! I will watch all his movies over and over again! I hope he continues to do great things and keep his fans happy. I love his physique his character and his acting. Am a Song Kang fan all the way😁😁
Despite being in the industry for close to a decade, he continues to have inconsistent acting skills. The only thing that stands out about him is his well-proportioned body.
