Who Needs True Love?

恋なんて、本気でやってどうするの?

Drama / 2022

  • REMAKE

"Who Needs True Love?" is a ten-episode dramedy about six romantically-challenged men and women.

Jun Sakurazawa has zero experience with romance, zero experience with men. Love? Who needs it. Not Jun.
To Arisa Mayama, love is all about calculating cost effectiveness. She seeks efficient romance.
Having married her first boyfriend, Kyoko Kiyomiya finds herself in a sexless marriage, which may be okay. Perhaps practicality trumps passion?

Jun, Arisa, and Kyoko are three 27-year-olds who insist “true love” is unnecessary. Only dramas and fangirling touch their hearts, and that’s enough.
Why spend time on something as uncertain and emotionally taxing as love? That is, until a series of fateful events rock their worlds.

Shuma Nagamine knows how to appeal to women. He follows a principle of ephemeral romance, neither rejecting those who enter his life, nor pursuing those who depart.
A love-phobic convenience store clerk, Katsumi Uchimura is an asocial and gloomy man who struggles to communicate or connect with others.
Kaname Iwahashi is a good looking guy who can cook, but this kitchen prodigy is full of hidden mysteries.

When Jun, Arisa, and Kyoko meet Shuma, Katsumi, and Kaname, all bets are off. Three women who fled from love burst out of their shells and dive right into romance!
What journeys await these six love-challenged people?
In an age where even love is digital and rational, "Who Needs True Love?" is a tale of true love where vulnerable hearts collide.
