Love In Asian History

Alright, I once read that historically, neither the Japanese or Chinese had a word for love. I know that public showing of affection was taboo as far as the Customs went back when as well.

But the lack of any word that meant love...is this true or just something out of a James Clavell novel? Anyone know historically if that was true?
