Ready, Set, Love (2024)

so funny

"Ready Set Love" was quite a unique experience for me, mainly because it reminded me a bit of Squid Game - but not as brutal. Just like in that series, it was based on a game show concept, which sparked a lot of interest.

Honestly, the first two episodes weren't as engaging for me, but I didn't give up because of the intriguing game concept. And I'm glad I didn't, it was really worth it! I got hooked in the third episode, eagerly anticipating the next one.

The main couple in the series was somewhat "obvious" and "typical." They knew each other since childhood, went through something sad, and now live happily ever after, as in most dramas. However, it wasn't all bad because I found myself drawn to the supporting characters. I especially focused on Paper's story, who, in my opinion, was the most interesting character. He was constantly discovering himself, making friends, and was incredibly charming.

The crime subplot was very well done because I didn't expect such a serious situation after seeing how comedic the first episodes were. Day's expressions were really funny, but I needed to get used to the quirkiness of this series.

Overall, I rate it very well because I had a lot of emotions in the last episode. The series sucked me in, so despite some cringe moments, I still really enjoyed it.

Gives positive vibes

Ready Set Love is very entertaining mini series that gives a positive vibes to the viewers . You will be amazed by it colorful cinematography. This mini series gives a squid game vibe but in different level about dating and its very funny. Their is also a little touch of drama when they talked about their family.
The casting is great, they picked the hottest gentleman cast plus Son looks like the Korean actor Byeon Woo Seok. Then Day really looks like the True Beauty star Moon Ga Young every angle you look you will say its her twin sodter hehehe.
Its fun to watch mini series, it shows challenges that they need to survive. It also shows the love for the family, that you are willing to sacrifice for your family. Ilike Day's spirit willing to do anything for the sake of her younger sister.
Day and Son met before when they still a child.Day is the one that save Son then, they lost contact with each other what connects them is that necklace. They met again unexpectedly at the game.Will their love rekindle when they meet again?
You better watched it to find out
I'm glad that Thai series are doing well. I actuality watched it in tagalog dubbed because I'm not used in hearing the thai language, ita too fast for me just like they are always in a hurry.
All in all the series is cute and funny, no dull moments

Distopia, crítica e amor

Eu já ia reclamar do final pq se passaram 4 anos e pra mim distopia tem que ter início, meio e fim, achei que eles iam se juntar pra tentar derrubar a fazenda e alguém de dentro também sabe mas o final do pai dele estar vivo me deu esperança de ter uma segunda temporada, mas será que eles vão se envolver agora que construíram uma família? Eu queria que o elenco todo estivesse caso uma segunda temporada seja confirmada
Mas enfim, eu gostei muito do mundo distópico que criaram, achei que foi bem desenvolvido apesar de algumas coisas que me incomodaram, tipo muito drama, cenas de comédia que não foram tão engraçadas, algumas coisinhas no drama mesmo que ficaram fracas, até alguma diálogos mas enfim, quem sou eu pra falar críticas não é, mas num geral gostei! A ideia é promissora demais além de ter não só a crítica principal mas muitas outras sobre a opção sexual também que é uma coisa que a Tailândia fala muitooo apesar de ser um país totalmente preconceituoso.

a quick watch with a bearable storyline

so, i didn’t finish it obviously because i really couldn’t watch it anymore ?

tbh no hate to it at all, if you’re into short dramas that have a cute little expected story going on then this might be just for you. me on the other hand, im not exactly into basic storylines with basic characters so.. BUT that’s just my own opinion.

also, it kind of reminded me of meteor garden (a chinese drama) that i had ALSO dropped halfway through and the way it reminded me of meteor garden just pushed me even more to the decision of dropping it.

the typical weird funny girl x coldhearted boy trope is just KINDAA not for me, so that’s the only reason. other than that, it was pretty okay

Fun, funny, intense, and interesting dystopian story

This was a really interesting story and a lot of fun without being too superficial or too dark. I enjoyed the plot and I enjoyed how it moved along and didn't waste a lot of time on unimportant things. Definitely worth a season 2.

Everybody's acting was pretty good. I'd like to imagery in a lot of ways because they made it very clear and bright while discussing a subject that was somewhat dark. The game show itself was really interesting but you know predictable in some ways because of the story of the show being rigged. But the way they described the subject around it was interesting.

If you can look past the slapstick comedy elements it is a hidden gem rom com

9.5/10 is my rating. This is a 2024 Thai Dystopian Romantic Comedy Series with 6, 63-7 minute episodes.

First I provide a unique synopsis then review

Synopsis

The show is set in a dystopian parallel universe where a virus has resulted in males representing only 1% of the population. The rarity of males has lead to the government raising them from birth in a controlled, secure, and luxurious environment (a gilded cage) called The Farm. Every Four Years a contest is held in the form of an elimination dating game where ladies are able to choose to marry an individual from a group of the young bachelors. In previous games, the contestants were chosen from elite families only but, for the first time, they hold a lottery to choose an average femalecitizen to compete. Darika Chokwithee or “Day” (Belle Kemisara Paladesh) is a hardworking young lady whose life centers around making sure her sister, May (Neen Neennara Boonnithipaisit) who has cancer, gets the best care. Her sister May though has always fan girled over the boys on the farm particularly Son (Blue Pongtiwat Tangwancharoen) who she particularly admires. While Day is busy working a variety of jobs, May focuses on getting as many entries as possible to the lottery. When a miracle happens and May’s entry is chosen, she talks Day into going in her place. Day could care less aboit some frivilous show until she discovers if she wins, and marries one of the men from “The Farm”, she can secure the future for herself and her sister including top quality medical care. But, things are not as they are portrayed and the game has been rigged for the top elite to have their choice of the men. Day’s friend, Valentine (Jane Jaytiya Naiwattanakul) is working with a counter group, and goes to work for the show as the spy inside. Can true love overcome odds so heavily weighed against it?

Review

If ypu can see past some of the siily slapstick aspects around the game show, it is a hidden gem. It can be hard to find a truely feel good romantic comedy like this one. This is cute, not super complex, and ends happily with all major plot elememts neatly resolved. It is short but the number of episodes were enough to tell the story well. I would rewatch it in the future and recommend it as a heartwarming romantic comedy. I could habe done without the boy love and girl love elements but it was not hyper sexualized content in general so it was not a big deal.

Spoilers

The only very slight detractor for me was some of the three stooges level comedy. But it did make me giggle a couple of times as it was so incredibly silly.

Despite the relative light fluff of the main story, there are some deeper messages. What is health and safety without freedom? The men on the Farm are living in the highest level of safety with every luxury but they are not free.

If there was ever a situation like that we can all envision where the elite would likely control it. Natural selection and genetic diversity is what keeps a population strong and healthy. So their “selection” system would be horrible from that perspective. But if you think of inbreeding among royal lines in the past, and the genetic issues that caused, it is not surprising.

Almond’s (Man Trisanu Soranun) fear and decision to stay behind makes sense considering the psychology of a situation like that. It is like opening a cage and the bird or whatever either does not leave or uses it as a home base.

Unique romcom that captured my heart

This drama was not one I had been anticipating, I just happened to come across it. And immediately after the first episode, i was OBSESSED. I absolutely loved how interesting the plot was - it was lighthearted but also serious when it needed to be. I loved how each 'main' character had a purpose in the show - except for Jin... his job was literally just making anyone put on his team, lose. Regardless, I liked how the plot was developed. The acting was great - of course it was silly at times but I think that suited the vibes of the show. I am now a huge fan of Blue since he did such a good job playing Son! I also loved the gay sideplots - both Paper and Chun as well as the producer and her girlfriend. The OST made for the show was very fitting. I'd definitely rewatch this again - it provided me with so much comfort. I feel like the ending was conclusive while also being open which is great. PLEASE GIVE US A SEASON 2.

Muito divertido de assistir

Um romcom muito divertido e diferente do usual. Ao mesmo tempo que entregavam comédia eles conseguiram colocar também uma parte de investigação na história e ficou ótimo!
Apesar de ser bem curtinho é um ótimo lakorn que te faz rir em todos os eps. Gostei da atuação de todos os personagens e da diversidade entre os casais. Eu adorei o enredo de ser um mundo com praticamente só mulheres e adorei tbm esse conceito do reality para conseguir se casar com um dos homens, todos os jogos foram mt divertidos. Ansiosa pra uma nova temporada!

Pra finalizar, é um dorama bem curtinho mesmo, que não é pra ser extremamente elaborado, é só pra vc curtir e se distrair assistindo, recomendo bastante, principalmente pra quem adora uma comédia romântica!

muito bom????

Quando vi a sinopse desse drama, confesso que dei uma respirada e revirei os olhos. Depois do lançamento, vi bons comentários e fiquei curiosa... fui assistir totalmente sem expectativas e saí apaixonada.

Me apaixonei por todos os personagens, tirando a vac4 da mãe da Channel, e achei até o Almond interessante. Dei umas gargalhadas gostosas com toda a farofada, principalmente da protagonista que virou minha protegida. Amei a relação da Day e da May, da Channel e da Bovy e da Day e da Va. Não posso esquecer do meu casal sáfico de mamães que também foi tudo!! Amei todos os casais, mas os protagonistas me pegaram com tanta fofura!!

Gostei do plot principal e de como o drama terminou, mesmo que não tenha segunda temporada. É difícil mudar um sistema, mas as raízes de novas possibilidades foram plantadas.

Soltei uma risada gostosinha com "direitos dos homens são direitos humanos" e amei como o movimento #freemachos serviu protagonismo feminino do início ao fim.

Amei, amei, amei ver tantas mulheres, muito diferentes entre si, construindo seus próprios caminhos, sendo corajosas e escolhendo por si mesmas.
