The drama &#8220;silent&#8221; (Fuji Television) was a big hit, and Kawaguchi was ranked No. 1 for the first time with 21 companies using her for commercials. Haruna Kawaguchi (28) had a busy year last year, appearing in two consecutive morning dramas.
 She was told, &#8220;Since my debut, I have suffered quite a bit from being labeled as a low viewership actress because I was said to have good material but no breakthroughs.&#8221; She was able to clear her name by understudying Erika Sawajiri (37) in the NHK historical drama &#8220;Kirin ga Kuru&#8221; in 2008. In an effort to overcome the difficult times, I hear that he also fasted and did some serious boxing training, which he continues to do today. Through her stoic efforts, she has come to value the on/off balance quite a bit and is now able to work in a good environment,&#8221; said a source from the production company.
Kawaguchi is leading such a smooth working life, but the other day, reports of a &#8220;breakup&#8221; in her private life came out. In November 2007, Kawaguchi was reported to be dating martial artist Yusuke Yaji (32), and at the beginning of their relationship, she told people around her that she wanted to marry him (Yaji). However, in an interview with a women&#8217;s magazine distributed on April 11, she said, &#8220;Actually, my love life is not that high on my priority list right now,&#8221; and it is reported that this may be a hint of a &#8220;breakup.

However, this magazine had witnessed the two on a date just a few days before this report.
In a corner of Tokyo where luxury condominiums stand side by side, we found a fussily cute French bulldog hustling around at dusk. Kawaguchi and Yaji were walking the dog. It was this dog, Amu, that triggered their relationship discovery. It must be an everyday scene for the two.
On the way there, a man passing by saw how cute Amu was, and whether he knew she was with Kawaguchi or not, he talked to her. She was friendly and willing to chat with him. After that, they enjoyed a walk again and went back to Kawaguchi&#8217;s apartment.

Kawaguchi had previously been said to be in the second stage of marriage. With other actresses her age getting married, such as Tao Tsuchiya (28) and Yui Sakuma (28), one wonders when the timing of their marriage will be.
 She said, &#8220;At the moment, I don&#8217;t have any plans to appear in a series of dramas. I was very busy last year, so I am sure the agency will let me take it easy this year. I think this would be the right time to start talking about marriage. Yaji also broke his losing streak last fall, and he is getting a good wave&#8221; (TV station insider).
The two, spotted by FRIDAY, were already looking like a married couple, walking side by side in relaxed clothes without dressing up.
In &#8220;silent,&#8221; the actor played the role of the protagonist who maintains a pure love for eight years, and many viewers were struck by his performance. Kawaguchi&#8217;s performance must have been a true masterpiece precisely because of her single-minded relationship with Yaji.
