Stay was one of the special projects that GTH produced for Line Corporation (Thailand) to use as exclusive content in advertising and promoting the launch of the Line TV application. Filming was supported by the Saga Prefecture Film Commission as part of the prefecture's strategy of promoting its tourism through foreign cinema.[2] Filming began at the beginning of 2015,[3] with more than 30 crew members filming and staying in Japan for more than a month.

Synopsis[]

Jook is a girl who has always dreamed of publishing her own book. She decides to combine her dream and her studies by thinking about working on a final project - a journal about food in Japan, with her best friend Ann. A journey to complete her dream then begins and her destination is a small farm in rural Saga, Japan. But in the end, Jook unexpectedly has to go to Japan by herself because suddenly, her best friend decides to ditch her.

At the farm, Jook meets Mee, a kind-hearted Thai man who has left his homeland to spend his life and work in Japan for 3 years. Mee is like Jook's babysitter who takes care of her, which quickly makes them grow closer. But little do they know, their feelings for each other also start growing.
