'La May Tren Bau Troi Ai Do' (Side Seeing) by Thai director Thanadet Pradit and Vietnamese producer Trinh Tu Trung will be released in theaters nationwide Friday.

The rom-com recounts the journey of a young Vietnamese girl called May (played by Ngoc Lan Vy) to Thailand to meet her idol Park (played by Push Puttichai) on her birthday.

May's seemingly smooth journey to meet Park, however, encounters obstacles from Boy (August Vachiravit) - a sincere, kind but clumsy motorbike taxi driver, and his friend James (James Vejvongsatichat), causing May to fall into awkward situations.

To prepare for the premiere, actor August Vachiravit will visit Vietnam from July 20-21 to meet Vy and interact with audiences.
