KBS Drama Special 2026 'Sound:Track' has revealed the main content of its two episodes, 'You More Than the Scent of Spring' and 'After the Play Ends,' ahead of its premiere. Both works capture stories of love, breakup, and growth accompanied by song in the format of one-act dramas. Building on its 42-year tradition of one-act dramas, KBS presents a new attempt at reinterpreting a single song as a drama.

'You More Than the Scent of Spring' — November 18 at 9:50 PM

'You More Than the Scent of Spring' airs on November 18 at 9:50 PM. The story unfolds as singer-songwriter Kim Na-eun, after saying goodbye to her pet cat Haru, meets the owner of a general store that sells animal language translators. Lee Jun-young, a part-timer at a camera shop, also forms a connection with them.

Director Kim Young-jun expressed the message left by the cat in a fairy-tale-like manner and placed foreshadowing in every scene. Na-eun's song featured in the work and the OST of the same title sung by Kang Ae-sim are also drawing attention, with the OST set to be released as an EP on November 19 at noon.

'After the Play Ends' — November 19 at 10 PM

'After the Play Ends' airs on November 19 at 10 PM. Current affairs program PD Na Hye-mi takes charge of the children's program 'Binggu and Baenggu,' forming a team with writer Gu Jun-young, the new Baenggu Ki Bong-sik, and the little postman Im Min-seong. The four characters' process of producing a children's program is depicted in a lighthearted way.

Pyo Ye-jin and Lee Gi-taek play a PD and writer in bickering scenes, while Kang Hong-seok and Jung Han-sol deliver comic performances as Baenggu and the little postman, respectively. The song of the same title, 'After the Play Ends,' also intertwines with the flow of the story.

What the Production Team Said

Director Kim Young-jun said, "I tried to warmly show the process of healing wounds through making and singing music." Writer Lee Sa-ha said, "I hope it offers small comfort to us who live through countless partings in life." Director Kim Han-seol said the chemistry between Pyo Ye-jin and Lee Gi-taek added persuasiveness to the romance, adding that he enjoyed the scenes of the two together throughout the work. Writer Sung Woo-jin emphasized, "The actors' ensemble acting is the highlight of the work."

KBS Drama Special 2026 'Sound:Track' begins on November 18 with 'You More Than the Scent of Spring,' followed by 'After the Play Ends' on the 19th.
