Ready, Set, Love is a Thai drama series that was released on February 15, 2024. The series language is Thai and it can be watched on Netflix. It features Thai actor Blue Pongtiwat Tangwancharoen, Kemisara Paladesh, and many more. 

In the series, men are outnumbered by women due to a pandemic that wiped out a significant number of men. As a result, only 1% of the population is men so it is rare to find a man in their world. However, these 1% of men have to live in this area called The Farm. Since it is rare to see a man, a game was created by the government to see which lady ended up with a man to marry and live on the farm.

Day, the main character, participated in this game accidentally when she won a raffle that her boy-obsessed sister put her in. She only went there for the food but somehow encountered Son, the male lead in the bathroom. It becomes a misunderstanding as Son thinks Day is a stalker but in reality, Day wanted an autograph for her sister. Turns out her sister collapsed due to her health condition so Day wanted to quit. However, the lady in charge of the game tells her the price which can save her sister’s life. 

As a result, Day ends up playing the game and somehow passes through the levels. Son, who almost rejects her in a round, recognizes her necklace and keeps her in the game. They fall in love throughout the show and they end up leaving the place with others.

I first encountered this show after I finished a movie so I decided to watch it because I got bored and it was the best decision ever. I ended up finishing the show in one sitting because it was pretty short. I love the storyline and I love how there were lots of plot twists and character developments. This show is definitely very entertaining and I recommend watching it.

Dodosolsollalasol is a romance and comedy K-drama that features the actors Go Ara and Lee Jae-Wook. It aired on October 7, 2020. It can be watched on Netflix and it has 16 episodes.

The main character, Goo Ra-ra, finds herself in shambles after her father dies the day of her wedding and her fiancé runs away during the wedding. Her life completely changes as she has to adapt from riches to rags. The male lead, Sunwoo Jun, is a high schooler who runs away from his parents due to high expectations and is currently hiding away from his parents.

Both characters find themselves closer to each other after an incident that led Ra-Ra to the hospital and due to financial reasons, Ra-Ra ends up staying with Jun and this develops their relationship. In the second half of the show, it’s more serious as the characters start to uncover each other’s secrets, but this problem is soon resolved. Although, after Jun’s secret is exposed, Ra-Ra and Jun are separated by Jun’s mother and Ra-Ra finds out Jun has an illness. Jun goes abroad for treatment of his illness and after a while, Jun was supposed to come back to the town on the day of Christmas, but he doesn’t show up. Ra-Ra thinks Jun is just running late but her world is shattered when Jun’s mother breaks the news of Jun’s passing.5 years after Jun’s death and everyone is trying to move on, but Jun comes back and tells Ra-Ra that he did not want her to see him sick so he faked his death for 5 years.

Most of the plot of the drama is Ra-Ra trying to survive on her own with the help of Jun and I honestly really loved it. The first half of the story is really cute and wholesome and I loved the interactions with the characters. The second half of the story was more serious but it was still really interesting and cute. However, like most people who watched Dodosolsollalasol, I did not like the ending of Dodosolsollalasol because the main male lead just randomly shows up after 5 years of faking his death. I felt like the ending was rushed and I honestly didn’t like it, but the show is overall really good and I definitely recommend it.
