"Sweet Room" is a keitai drama - movie to watch on your mobile phone - with 4 episodes. Every episode tells a love story which takes place in the suite room of a hotel. They all are running around 15 to 20 minutes.

Last Love
The first episode tells the story of an unsuccesful photographer (Narimiya Hiroki) and an unsuccesful model (Shiomi Yukari). They meet at a photoshooting for a supermarket advertisement and the he directly fall in love with her. Some time later she invites him to the suite room to take beautiful photos of her and later tells him her secret. This episode is very sensual, but has a bittersweet ending.

Birthday

The second episode is about a young couple. As birthday present for his girlfriend Riko (Hasegawa Emi) he (Mukai Osamu) wants to fulfill one of her biggest wishes - a night in a big suite. He goes to the room earlier, prepares everything and welcomes her in a nice suit. They eat birthday cake together and spend a lovely time. This episode is full of deep and true love and lets your heart melt away.

Triangle

The next episode is about two guys called Takashi (Kaname Jun) and Mamoru (Kubota Yuusuke) and their female friend Risa (Watanabe Naoko). One day Mamoru asks Takashi what he thinks about Risa and tells him he can have her because he will die. Mamoru really died to days later and the funeral was on a rainy day. A recorded mobile phone message from the dead friend orders both to the hotel suite.

Room Service

A woman, Kazuhi-san (Iriyama Noriko), is waiting at the suite to meet her boyfriend she is in a long distance relationship with. But he stands her up with a call. For sure she is pretty sad and tries to forget it with spending time together with the man of the room service, Takahara-san (Toyohara Kosuke), who takes care of her.

Except of the last episode all have a sex scene - some really passionate and with lots of deep kissing. For sure you can't see anything, but you can feel the deep emotions.

My two favorites are "Birthday" and "Last Love" which I really can recommend. "Room Service" is also nice, but maybe a little bit boring. I didn't like "Triangle" very much, because this episode is a little bit confusing.

All in all, I think it's worth watching (^-^)v

[J-Dorama] Sunao ni Narenakute

Name: Sunao ni Narenakute - Hard to say I love you
Aired: April~June 2010 on FujiTV
Main actors: Eita, Juri Ueno, Megumi Seki, Tetsuji Tamayama, Jaejoong Hero

Today I finally finished watching the J-dorama "Sunao ni Narenakute" \(^0^)/

This drama from 2010 is about 5 people who got to know each other with the help of Twitter. This people are: Keisuke "Nakaji" Nakajjma (Eita), a talented photographer who is aiming to become a war photographer like his father; Tsukiko "Haru" Mizuno (Juri Ueno), a young openhearted woman wants to become a high school teacher; her best friend Hikari "Peach" Nishimaru (Megumi Seki) whose boyfriend left her after she found out she is pregnant; Kaoru "Linda" Ichihara, who works at a magazine he is blackmailed into sexual favours by his chief editor; and Seonsu "Doctor" Park, an Korean working at a company that sells medical equipment to disinterested doctors, and at the same time, trying to take care of his younger sister.
The five are meeting at a bar called "Emotion" and finally get close friends in real life - especially connected with love. But a lot of things will happen to each of them...

A wonderful story about love, strength in life, how to find to yourself and following your dreams. I really enjoyed watching the drama and only can recommend it to everyone of you!


I also like the two theme songs. One is "Hard to say I love you" by the band Weaver which is a really catching tune. The other one is "Sunao ni Narenakute by Sayuri Sugawara.
