Plot
More than half of women in their 20's to 30's admit to "currently lacking a boyfriend." Men, love, sex, work, marriage... All the issues women face today are revealed in truth through this generation, an "ice age of love."
"The reason I can't find my love" highlights the lives of three women, Fujii Emi, Ogura Saki and Hanzawa Mako. The three women end up living under the same roof by coincidence, and it is there that they share each other's experiences, bitter or sweet, desperately struggling with their love life. A life-sized unconventional love story ever to air on Fuji TV's prime 9 Monday drama slot! -- Fuji TV

Review
I was reluctant to watch this at first as I thought 'a dorama about 4older women who can't find love.. sounds pathetic' also I dislike one/two of the actresses. But my friend told me it was really good and told me to watch it. So trusting her judgement I went and watched it... I actually enjoyed it and it was SCARY just how much I related to the main character (played by Karina) and I was emotional with it as well. ONTO the actors!
