Find Destined Romance Without Phones in Japanese Reality Dating Series 'Offline Love':
Can love still blossom in today's world without relying on being online? Japanese reality series Offline Love sets out to find out, premiering February 18. Unveiled today, the main trailer offers a sneak peek at the enchanting city of Nice, France, with its beautiful beaches and atmospheric old town. Participants navigate the city, relying on letters and promises to connect with their companions, as they strive to find their soulmate in a limited timeframe.
Following the success of popular reality romance series like The Boyfriend and Love Village, Offline Love offers a fresh take on dating reality shows. Ten men and women embark on a journey to find love in the picturesque city of Nice, without using digital devices. But there's a twist: they only have 10 days to meet and connect. Despite no guarantee of crossing paths, chance meetings and inevitable encounters suggest that they might be destined for love. Will the participants find their soulmates and experience true love?
The series features studio commentary from Kyoko Koizumi and the comedy duo Reiwa Roman, both making their debut as emcees for a dating reality show. Koizumi, a former idol turned singer, actor, and producer, reflects on the show's premise: "I never really connected with romance reality shows, but this concept is fascinating: in a foreign country and without digital devices, participants rely on letters, promises, and coincidences to find love. I grew up without a smartphone, and every moment felt precious." She brings her perspective as a member of the "offline love" generation, watching over the contestants' romantic adventures. "Meeting the two members of Reiwa Roman was also a delight! I hope everyone enjoys watching how things will unfold."
Reiwa Roman, composed of Kuruma Takahira and Kemuri Matsui, are known for their sharp wit, adding their unique humor to the show. Takahira shares, "It felt more like witnessing a grand social experiment rather than a dating show. In a foreign land, they experience the ultimate digital detox, with no complex rules - it's a series of surprises, realizing how such a lifestyle can transform someone's feelings. Enjoy the beautiful scenery and cuisine of Nice, Kyoko Koizumi's warm words, and Kemuri-sensei's beard." Matsui adds, "At 31 years old, I don't think I've ever experienced romance without social media, messaging apps, emails, or phone calls. It'll be interesting to watch the men and women lay their hearts bare as they cross paths. Koizumi's insightful commentary alongside our fun chatter is something you should also look out for. We hope you enjoy the show!"
It must be fate! Don't miss out on the drama that unfolds in Offline Love, streaming all 10 episodes on February 18 to warm audiences' hearts.
