He is officially slated to be discharged on October 1, 2025. Despite still being in uniform, industry insiders are already buzzing about his potential comeback. And the frontrunner? A youth-focused drama titled Four Hands, centered around music, growth, and personal transformation. Four Hands According to a June 30 report by SPOTV News, Song Kang is in talks to headline Four Hands. It's a new series that explores the journey of young musicians at an arts high school. The title is inspired by the classical piano technique where two players perform together on one piano. Set across the characters' adolescent and adult years, the story weaves together themes of friendship, first love, rivalry, and artistic ambition. As the characters navigate intense training and personal challenges, the drama promises to delve into how passion for music shapes their identities and relationships over time. Song Kang as a Piano prodigy If cast, Song Kang will take on the role of a piano genius whose calm personality hides a deeply complex inner world. Described as having both a delicate and sharp charm, his character will likely offer the actor a chance to show off a more nuanced and emotionally rich performance.

Given the maturity that often comes with completing military service, fans are eager to see how Song Kang will bring new depth to his acting.

The project is widely expected to become his first drama after returning to civilian life. Reports also indicate that the actor has been receiving multiple offers during his service. It's a proof of his continued popularity and demand within the entertainment industry. The decision to lean toward Four Hands signals a deliberate choice to pursue a project with emotional weight and strong storytelling. Production gears up without delay Even as Song Kang completes his service, the production team behind Four Hands isn't wasting time. Casting and pre-production efforts are in full swing, with the aim of finalizing the lineup and setting the stage for filming later this year or early next. Anticipation builds for Song Kang's return Song Kang is known for his breakout performances in dramas like Love Alarm, Sweet Home, My Demon and Navillera. He has carved out a name for himself as one of the most prominent actors of his generation. His return to the screen is among the most anticipated events in the K-drama world.

However, no official announcement has been made yet. Big Hit Music Urges Fans to Celebrate Safely Big Hit Music had earlier issued a statement on their fan platform urging fans not to visit the military base due to safety and space concerns. 'No separate official events will be held on the day of discharge,' the agency reiterated, requesting ARMY to support the members virtually. Despite the absence of in-person celebrations, social media platforms lit up with hashtags like #WelcomeBackNamjoon and #WelcomeBackTaehyung trending globally. Fans shared art, video edits, and heartfelt messages across X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Weverse. When Will the Remaining BTS Members Be Discharged? With RM and V now officially discharged, the next BTS members expected to return are Jimin and Jungkook, both of whom will be released from duty on June 11, 2025—just a day after RM and V. Meanwhile, SUGA (Min Yoongi), who is serving as a public service worker due to health reasons, will be discharged on June 21. Earlier this year, J-Hope and Jin, who had enlisted before the others, completed their service, making RM and V the fifth and sixth members to return to civilian life. BTS Festa 2025 and the Group's Anticipated Reunion Excitement around the 2025 BTS FESTA, scheduled for June 13 at KINTEX, Goyang, is already at an all-time high. While Big Hit has yet to confirm if the recently discharged members will attend, fans are hopeful that this year's FESTA will be the first step towards the full group performing or appearing together publicly again. Adding to the buzz, J-Hope is set to hold a solo encore concert at Goyang Stadium on the same day, making June 13 one of the most anticipated dates for ARMY this year.
