Ready, Set, Love

Určite to stoji za pozretie

Bola som spočiatku skeptická, nejaký seriálik o hre a´la : Přijmeš moji růži? ... ale teda už po prvej časti sa to zvrtne a zatiahne vás to do deja, že sa vám ani nebude chcieť ísť spať, kým neprídete k časti, ktorá nie je napínavá resp. nejak zaujímavá ;-)
Tematika seriálu o svete, kde sa rodí len cca 0,01% mužskej populácie a smotánka si ich necháva pre seba, aby sa mohla množiť, pričom na oko, sa v rámci súťaže, o priazeň mužov môžu uchádzať aj dievčatá z nižšej vrstvy. Hlavná predstaviteľka je tvrdohlavá, ešteže existujú mladšie a ešte tvrdohlavejšie sestry, ktoré im radi popletú život, a láska, ktorá sa prederie na povrch aj vtedy, keď je zakázaná.
Seriál je vtipný, napínavý, so súťažami s akými sa bohužiaľ u nás nestretávame, (max ak ste pozerávali Takeshi castle) s krimi - dramatickou zápletkou. Koniec je fajn, ale ostal otvorený, tak som zvedavá, či sa odhodlajú na druhú sériu a celý "svet" dajú do poriadku.
Serial mi ponúklo v rámci Netflix-u a to rovno s cz titulkami, a keď som videla, ze tam hrá Man Trisanu Soranun , nebolo o čom, a pustila som si ho,xi
Jednoznačne ho môžem odporučiť a prajem vám prijemné sledovanie ;-)

A different type of Hunger Games!

I got major Hunger Games vibes from this show!

In a world of barely any guys, a female chosen from the lottery (similar to Willy Wonka's Charlie) is forced into a game show where top winners can live happily ever after with a male they choose at this government monitored place, called the Farm.

I had started this thinking it was going to be a cute lighthearted romance drama, but NO NO this was not it at all. The more I watched, the more complex it got into the dystopian world they live in. I was curious about the games they would play. They were decently entertaining and creative to watch.

The way they ended was pretty cliffhanger, leaving room for Season 2 so we understand more about the world they built!! I need to know more about the father! Everything was plotted and planned well, aside from some smh moments from the female lead. Highly recommend, especially if this is your first Thai drama like it was mine! The male lead is a fantastic actor.

Very entertaining and visually captivating

This show is like the book The Selection meets The Bachelor meets Squid Game, which I found to be very entertaining.
I am a fan of shorter series but with this world and this story it's truly a shame they weren't able to slow it down and flesh it out more, but in the end this didn't really affect my enjoyment of the show. I loved the overall vibe of the show- it made me laugh quite a few times and stayed pretty light hearted despite some of the darker things you discover are going on.

Visually this show is incredible. The colors. The lighting. The unique camera work. The sets and locations. It is BEAUTIFUL and so cool to watch. I really appreciate all the detail that went into making this series look like a work of art.

I don't think I'm in any position to judge acting, I think everyone did pretty great. There were only a few moments where the pacing of the scene just seemed off enough for me to notice, but this is just me being nit picky and I don't think it took away from my enjoyment of the show.

TLDR; give this show a watch! There's no way you won't be entertained, it's very bingable, and visually fantastic!

Amor en tiempos de lotería genética

Una mezcla atrevida de comedia romántica, distopía y crítica social. Ambientada en un universo paralelo donde los hombres son escasos y considerados “tesoros nacionales”, las mujeres deben competir en un reality show patrocinado por el gobierno para ganarse su afecto.
La protagonista, Day, entra a regañadientes en esta competencia surrealista, y lo que comienza como una sátira ligera se transforma en una historia con capas de conspiración, resistencia y vínculos emocionales inesperados. El tono es juguetón, pero no superficial: hay momentos de ternura, tensión y hasta crítica al control institucional sobre el amor y la libertad.
💭 Personalmente, me pareció una propuesta fresca y provocadora. Tiene ese aire de “Hunger Games conoce a The Bachelor”, pero con un corazón propio. Aunque algunos personajes tienen nombres tan peculiares como “Almond” o “Paper”, logran transmitir emociones genuinas. La química entre Day y Sun es cálida, y el final deja espacio para reflexionar… y quizás para una segunda temporada.
Ideal si te gustan las historias que mezclan romance con mundos alternativos y un toque de rebeldía.

It could've been waaay much better...

I went into this expecting a simple rom-com with a quirky dystopian twist. And honestly? It had the potential to be exactly that: light, funny, and clever. But somewhere along the way, it lost itself.

The premise is actually very interesting: a world where only 1% of men remain, treated as rare, almost sacred beings, raised in isolation at the Farm and turned into something untouchable. The social commentary about gender imbalance, power, and commodification of men started off strong. It felt satirical, fresh, and full of possibilities. But instead of balancing comedy and critique, it slowly weakens both. The humor loses its sharpness, the social commentary fades, and what could’ve been bold becomes oddly safe.

The romance between Day and Son also feels watered down. It’s there, but it lacks depth and emotional payoff. Sorry not sorry. And I kinda feels Day little forced... I mean, the script wants her to be charismatic and revolutionary without properly earning it. I don't know... I just can't feel it in her.

What frustrates me the most is the ending. There’s an entire arc about exposing the truth behind the Farm, about breaking the system, about changing things from within. And when they finally exposed all the shit, I though: "Now they gonna be free for real and end the whole shit".... but no... they just run away... AGAIN.

And the open ending with cliffhanger?? The post-credits hinting that Son’s missing father might be alive, suggesting more story to tell, and not given me a 2° season????? B*tch you better be joking!!!

But I have tbh, it’s not a terrible series. It has good moments, the concept is fun, but overall it wastes its own potential. And that’s more disappointing than if it had just been shallow from the start.

It was very fun

This Thai drama left me impressed by its production quality. The premise it deals with is very interesting and even though there are only 6 episodes they are very enjoyable and make you want to keep watching one after the other. Undoubtedly, I think it's a plot that could have been approached more deeply, but for its format I don't think it was too bad (although I was left wanting to see more). I think it's perfect for non-stop weekend viewing, it's fun, the games are entertaining and I really liked the characters. It was hilarious sometimes and I loved it, without getting so reflexive or critical it is a show that I would watch again because I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Let's wait if they decide to bring out a new season.

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

Ready, Set, Go watch this !!

I decided to watch this because I saw it on Netflix and it looked fun. Everything you expect from the trailers and promo is what you get! More than that, there is a deeper story beneath that.

For what this show is I found it to be really fun. It’s a reality-game-show and whoever wins comes out with a husband. The idea is, all the men are dwindling down so it’s a huge event for this show to take place every year. Think hunger-games or squid games, but less dying and more fun and men.

To me, this drama excels beyond that main premise. I found myself staying entertained through the whole run, and I think that’s due to several things. The story is great and it doesn’t take itself too seriously with the melodramatic parts. In fact, it is so camp. It’s fun and colorful and funny also. The acting is amazing and everyone fits their role and is funny without being cringe. I loved Day, she was my favorite and is a female lead written so well. She’s fun, she’s got backbone, and she’s unapologetically herself. Lots of emphasis on the fun, she’s just great.

I love the sets and the colorful appeal, it’s got a certain style that’s sort of whimsical but carefully crafted to fit the game show appeal. Overall this drama exceeds what I thought it was and came together to be a very fun and entertaining watch. Enough so that I’d love a season 2!

Could Have Been Amazing

Although entertaining at times, I liked the beginning and the competition parts, the story lacked that something something which would have made it a hit for me. It suffered from trying to do too much with too little time. They also wasted too much time on the first part of the story. To the point that I felt it was dragging . I need to emphasize, this is a show with only 6 episodes. So, for me, this translated into the ending feeling super rushed. On top of that, it had one of my most disliked tropes, childhood acquaintances/friends to lovers, which is very difficult for me to swallow because it always seems to turn into insta-love. Or, at least, it does when it refers to the main leads. It was too goofy and the acting seemed unnatural at times I didn't feel the leads had any chemistry. I really liked the potential of the story, so I hope this gets a better and more fleshed out remake.

And I was soooo sick of the OST. Was there only one song?
