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."

Thank you for taking this project!

And OP, you should watch the original since the drama is sooooo good (so depressing yet so good at the same time) -- its basically the saddest drama I have ever seen and none other dramas can ever touched how sad it is. I watched it more than 10 years ago but I still remember lots of the scenes from the drama like I just watch it one year ago. T__T
