The trailer for the Thai romantic comedy Ready, Set, Lovehas dropped, and it promises to be a fun ride. Directed by Yanyong Kuruangkura (App War, Mother Gamer, Back to the 90s), the series blends romance and comedy with a game show element set in an intriguing alternate reality.

Ready, Set, Loveexplores a world where women significantly outnumber men, and men are considered "national treasures." In this parallel universe, the government sponsors a game show named "Ready, Set, Love" where women compete for the men's affection. Day (Kemisara "Belle" Paladesh), an ordinary woman, unexpectedly gets a chance to participate in this competition. Though hesitant, she plunges in and crosses paths with Son (Pongtiwat "Blue" Tangwancharoen), one of the five bachelors, leading to true love with a twist.

To visualize what everyday scenarios would look like if there were really such a situation, director Yanyong relied on creative art direction to give the series its unique spin. "What would cars be like? What attitudes would people have? We thought through all these carefully and visualized them in a way that's distinctive and appealing, resulting in a vibrant and colorful rom-com, where every element in each scene has a meaning behind it."

Beyond light-hearted romance and comedy, the six-episode series also hides a layer of mystery and conspiracy, while exploring topics such as freedom and feminism. "When you watch Ready, Set, Love, you'll understand that freedom allows us to do whatever we want. We can love anyone, and we can be any gender," he adds.

While these elements add depth to the narrative, Yanyong emphasizes that the ultimate goal is to entertain. "I want the audience to enjoy the series," he said. "Our intention is to make something that's really fun to watch."

Celebrate Valentine's Day with 'Ready, Set, Love' on February 15, exclusively on Netflix.
