summer subbin', happened so fast

I'm sure you've all heard about Tomo's new romance drama coming up!

Awesomely enough it coincides with my summer break, so I'll be subbing that. :Dd

I don't have time to translate anything concrete right now, but it's a remake of the 2004 K-Drama Sorry, I Love You. Tomo's character was abandoned by his mum, then gets this fatal injury after helping who I presume is his love interest (who, incidentally, has a romance thing going on with Tomo's half-brother). That being said, he tries to look for her before he dies so they can connect again. It sounds cheesy as hell and I'd rather die before I watch a romance drama, but we all know how much I love Tomo, so hey.

According to Tomo, the reason he hasn't done romance dramas as of late is because of lack of interest. "Love just wasn't the kind of thing I could comprehend," or so he says. He also says that he'll be pursuing the role "in a way that only I could do a love story".

"Now that I'm in my late thirties, the way I think about love is a lot different than it was 20 years ago. With this role, I'll be able to pursue it more honestly. After all the acting I've done, I want this character to be one people'll think, oh, only Tomoya Nagase could've played that guy, and if I have to do a love story for it, then isn't that fine? It'll be a love story no-one's ever seen before."

the drama was depressing as heck (as much as it was good), i think it took me a month or so to just get over it. i loved the drama but it's the probably the only one i refuse to rewatch because i don't want to get sad all over again. but now i have to because NAGASE!!! x_x

i'm curious on how the japanese production will interpret the drama though. i think Nagase fits the main lead role fine but i'm worried about the age gap with the main actress? either way, i'm anticipating this.

the theme song for the korean version is actually a remake of Mika Nakashima's [Yuki no Hana], and its haunting sound perfect suits the mood of the drama. i wonder if they're going to use it somewhere.
