Hard to Say I Love You

Today, I want to you introduce a Japanese drama that I'm watching these days. The English title is Hard to Say I Love You and the Japanese title is 素直になれなくて (Sunao ni Narenakute-meaning because I can’t be honest if you translate it directly). I started watching this drama because a member of T.V.X.Q(my favorite boy band), Jae Joong is starring as one of the main characters. This drama is about the love, life, and friendship about the five people who meet through the twitter. Let me introduce the main characters!

(Character names are nicknames that they use in their twitter!)
1. Ueno Juri as Haru:

She is very famous as Nodame, from the drama Nodame Cantabile. I was a big fan of Nodame Cantabile and Ueno Jurin so I had to watch this drama no matter what. In the drama, she's going to form a love triangle with Jae Joong and Eita! Haru becomes to like Nakaji (the character acted by Eita) but he already has a girlfriend so... I'm not going to explain further because I don't want to ruin it for you! You should watch it yourself, it's a great drama!

2. Eita as Nakaji:

Eita is well known for his unique fashion and good acting skills. He has a girlfriend in the drama but she is already married. He gets close with Haru as a friend, ignoring the fact that Haru sort of like him.

3. Jae Joong as Doctor:

Jae Joong is starring as a Korean guy who came to Japan for some reason. He lives with his sister and works in as a salesman. He likes Haru but Haru actually like Nakaji. However, many things happen to them..!!!

4. Seki Megumi as Peach:

I've never seen Seki Megumi in any other dramas but when I first saw her in this drama, I thought she was really pretty. She is pregnant with a married man and she tries to commit suicide.. She's Haru's best friend; she often gives advice to Haru about what to do with her feelings.

5. Tamayama Tetsuji as Linda:

He is a magazine editor but he is not very successful. He has a very strict father who is against his career so he lives isolated from his father. However, after meeting the other four through the twitter, he opens up to his father and rebuilds the relationship.

This drama is actually only half way done. I look forward to what will happen. I personally wish Haru and Nakaji becomes couples since they look so good together. I wish everyone in the drama becomes happy. This drama is really entertaining with the great actors/actresses and the great storyline. It's not too late to catch up! You should start watching it now!
