Four Hands, Two Sonatas on Netflix: Full Release Schedule and Finale Date

Four Hands, Two Sonatas is streaming on Netflix in the United States right now, with new episodes arriving every Saturday and Sunday. The Korean piano drama runs a total of 12 episodes and reaches its finale on Sunday, October 4, 2026.

If you started the series the weekend it premiered and want to know exactly when the next chapters land, here is the full US release schedule, the episode-by-episode start times in ET and PT, and everything you need to keep pace with Song Kang’s long-awaited return.

When do new episodes of Four Hands, Two Sonatas come out?

Netflix releases two new episodes each weekend — one on Saturday and one on Sunday — mirroring the broadcast slots on the South Korean cable network tvN, where the series airs first. For US subscribers, new episodes have been landing on Netflix at roughly 11 a.m. ET (8 a.m. PT) on their release day, shortly after the Korean broadcast. Times can shift by a little depending on when Netflix processes the upload, but the platform has held to that late-morning window since the premiere.

The series debuted on Saturday, August 29, 2026, and keeps that two-per-weekend cadence for six weeks. That puts the two-part finale on the first weekend of October.

Four Hands, Two Sonatas full release schedule on Netflix (US)

Each episode runs roughly 70 minutes, so the full season adds up to about 14 hours of viewing. Netflix carries the series with English subtitles, and a Korean-language dub track is standard for the platform’s tvN co-productions.

Where to watch Four Hands, Two Sonatas in the US

Four Hands, Two Sonatas streams exclusively on Netflix in the United States — there is no separate rental or purchase option. Any active Netflix plan gives you access, though only the ad-free Standard and Premium tiers stream in full HD and 4K. In South Korea the series airs on tvN and the local streamer TVING, but for viewers in the US, Netflix is the one and only home for it.

Here is the official Netflix trailer, with English subtitles:

What Four Hands, Two Sonatas is about

The story opens inside an elite arts high school, where three teenagers are pulled together by the piano and never quite come apart again. Kang Bi-oh (Song Kang) is the polished top-ranked prodigy with a clear path to a concert career. Choi Jeong-yo (Lee Jun-young) is the raw natural talent who was forced to give up the instrument early, and whose reappearance turns a rivalry into something closer to a lifelong bond. Between them stands Hong Jae-in (Jang Gyu-ri), whose own ambitions refuse to sit quietly in anyone’s shadow.

The title points to the show’s central image: the four-hands technique, where two pianists share a single keyboard. It is a neat metaphor for a drama about collaboration and competition living in the same body — first loves, wounded pride, and the slow, unglamorous work of becoming a real musician. Written by Shin Yee-won and directed by Park Hyun-seok, the series follows the trio from those high-school recital halls into adulthood, where the choices they made as teenagers come due.

The cast and Song Kang’s return

The headline here is Song Kang. Nicknamed the “Son of Netflix” for a run of platform hits, he takes his first major role since completing his mandatory military service, and the comeback has drawn a level of attention few new dramas get out of the gate. Opposite him, Lee Jun-young — equally established as a singer and an actor — plays the foil whose talent complicates everything, while Jang Gyu-ri rounds out the central trio.

For anyone who came to Song Kang through his earlier streaming work, this is a deliberate change of register: quieter, more grounded, built around performance and rehearsal rather than genre spectacle. Here is the official teaser for a first look at the tone:
