I really thought at first it solely revolved around Twitter, on how it works and all. It turned out to be just a bridge for 5 different people who have their own different stories to tell. It shows how Twitter can connect lives, and not just how it relays information to people.
Linda, Doctor, Nakaji, Haru and Peach are the five users who became friends after their first gathering. This is not your typical high-school get together. These are adults who are mature and working on their own. You can expect some complications from these type of characters.
It all started with a lie. Everybody has their own lie to tell. The story also revolves around the feeling of not being able to express true feelings, thus the title "Hard to Say I Love You".
It mainly revolves around the love story between Haru and Nakaji, with the other characters being entangled with them into an love triangle, or should I say love pentagon? LOL
Haru and Nakaji seems to be the reincarnation of the love that Haru's mother and Nakaji's father weren't able to push-through, just because they weren't honest with theirselves.
Personally I watched this Jdrama because of Kim Jaejoong. I don't know who the heck the other characters are. It was nice to see Jaejoong have a big role, eve though it is not a lead role in a Japanese drama.
His character Park Seonsu will make you feel pity for him. He lied he was a doctor. but actually he is only a medical equipment salesman. He strives to become a good employee but gets unlucky most of the time. His character seemed tailor-made for him too since his character comes from Korea, who migrated to Japan with his sister.
I hated Haru for not liking Seonsu aka Doctor wholeheartedly. I kept telling myself, "He's Jaejoong! Nobody can say no to Youngwoong Jaejoong! Just look at him, how could you not love someone like him?" But of course he was not Jaejoong in the drama, he was Seonsu, the unfortunate one. LOL
It's more mature than what you think. Not your typical teeny-bopper drama. It discusses a wide variety of issues other than Twitter. I personally think it was a well-made drama. I'm happy that Jaejoong was a part of this cast.
