When American newcomer Alex moves to Tokyo, he never expects to find love-or companionship-on the streets of a city full of strangers. To make ends meet, he becomes a rental boyfriend, offering friendship and presence to lonely women seeking connection.
Then he meets Yui, a gentle, introspective young woman who wants nothing more than someone to spend time with-no strings attached, no romance. As they share quiet walks, laughter, and heartfelt conversations, their connection grows deeper than either anticipated.
But when the month ends, their bond isn't so easily let go. A single phone call changes everything, challenging Alex to leave behind the world of temporary arrangements and embrace something real.
"Rental Relationship" is a wholesome, slow-burn romance about friendship, emotional intimacy, and the courage to open your heart to love-unexpected, tender, and life-changing.
