Single's Inferno season 2 wrapped up earlier this year, but what happened to the original singles from season 1?
Single's Inferno returned to Netflix for season two in early 2023 after the K-Entertainment dating show performed well with viewers during its first season, but where did the original cast end up? Like Love Island and Bachelor in Paradise, the series puts a group of attractive singles in an island setting perfect for romance and drama as couples pair off. While most couples from Single's Inferno season 1 are no longer together, their lives have stayed interesting post-filming.
Since both seasons are available for streaming on Netflix, there's curiosity about what happened to the Single's Inferno season 1 cast and if they stayed with the people they matched with on the show. Some Single's Inferno cast members are popular on Instagram, and others have faded into obscurity. While the success rate of reality TV relationships is low, sometimes, there are surprises. Where are the singles now that the cameras have stopped rolling?
12 Kim Hyeon Joong
Kim Hyeon Joong became a fan favorite on the show, especially when it became clear he was only interested in Ji-a. As mentioned in Asia One, the couple did leave together but broke up after the show, but Hyeon Joong has been adamant that the two are still friends and has no bad feelings towards Ji-A. Hyeon Joong is now running his own clothing company and modeling for them, which he did before being on the reality dating show.
11 Song Ji-A
Song Ji-a entered the competition as a well-known social media beauty influencer. Many contestants already knew who she was, making her sought after by more than one of the guys. Since her time on the show, Ji-a has continued to grow her YouTube channel, Freezia, and Instagram following. Asia One reported that she and her "puppy," Kim Hyeon Joong were no longer together. The article also noted that Ji-a was involved in a scandal when it was exposed that she had posted fake designer items to make her seem more affluent than she was and to keep up with her image online. She has since deleted the posts and apologized.
10 An Yea Won
Yea Won came on the show as a fitness instructor and gained fans with her fun and positive attitude while looking for love. She paired up with Jun-Sik, and although they had the potential to be a classic reality dating show couple, they fizzled out. In a YouTube Q+A, Jun-Sik confirmed they were not dating anymore but were good friends. Yea Won is still a model and works with many athletic brands.
9 Choi Si Hun
Choi Si Hun was a welcome sight as the cast recognized him for his work on several different K-Entertainment shows. Si Hun was part of the dramatic finale discussion that left him single as Ji-A chose Kim Hyeon Joong as her partner. Even though he left single, that hasn't stopped Si Hun from living his best life as he continues to grow as an entrepreneur and travel with friends. Si Hun hasn't changed much since the show in looks, so it's safe to assume that people are still shocked that the young-looking business owner is in his 30s.
8 Kang So Yeon
Kang So Yeon came onto the show as the sporty CEO looking for love, and she seemed to have found it with Oh Jin-taek for most of the series. Unfortunately, it seems the pair are no more. It was exciting to see So Yeon on the show as she was once a part of the group WE. While those days are behind her, Kan So Yeon still runs her training company and athleisure brand while training intensely for soccer, as shown on her YouTube channel.
7 Moon Se Hoon
Moon Se Hoon and Shin Ji-Yeon took audiences on a wild ride of emotions as Se Hoon made it clear that Ji-Yeon was the only one for him, but she wasn't so sure. Even though they didn't end up staying together after the show, as confirmed by Ji-Yeon in a YouTube video on her channel, Se Hoon has been doing well for himself. Besides owning three restaurants, the young business owner also models and promotes clothing brands.
6 Seong Min Ji
Seong Min Ji came into the competition late, so the only information given about Min Ji was that she had twin who shared her career path of being a model. Since being on the show, Min Ji has continued working as a model for several brands and has been traveling the world. Even though she left the show without a love interest Min Ji has been focused on her career and becoming a world-renowned model.
5 Oh Jin Taek
Oh Jin Taek was the fashionable contestant that caught the eye of Kang So Yeon at the beginning of the show. Since then, Jin Taek has continued his work in the fashion industry for several luxury brands and his tailoring shop, which he had been running for eight years at the time of the show.
Fans have been left to speculate about the couple's status as neither has confirmed if they are together, but they seem to post in similar, if not the same, places at the same time often. Recently he posted on a soccer field, which could indicate the couple is still together since So Yeon has been partaking in soccer training and documenting it for her YouTube channel.
4 Shin Ji-Yeon
Shin Ji Yeon left the Single's Inferno island with Moon Se Hoon, but it seems the pair didn't find their happily ever after. In a video on her YouTube channel celebrating the new year, Ji-Yeon confirmed that she's single and would like people to stop asking her if she has a boyfriend since she has established her relationship status numerous times. She also notes that she has been working a lot and misses Canada, where she went to university.
3 Kim Jun Sik
Even though his relationship with An Yeon Won wasn't meant to be, Kim Jun Sik has been doing well himself after the show. Jun Sik still runs his food company Kamee, which provides consumer energy-boosting snacks. The company appears to be growing thanks to Jun Sik's appearance on the show and fans' interest in his work.
2 Kim Su Min
Kim Su Min was another late joiner to the group of singles on the island but immediately found two potential matches. However, neither panned out how she had hoped and left Su Min with no love interests. The aspiring model and actress posted a video earlier this year to her YouTube of a night out with a friend, with the title Tipsy Talk With My BF; some fans thought this was a video revealing her new relationship, but BF was referencing her best friend. She is believed to be single.
1 Cha Hyun Seung
Cha Hyun Seung was another of Ji-A's suitors on Single's Inferno and left the island without a love interest. Hun Seung most recently starred in Netflix Korea's new show Physical: 100, competing against 99 other contestants in intense challenges that took participants to their limits. When he isn't on TV, Hyun Seung works as a professional dancer and has toured with K-Pop groups. Even when he has downtime between shows, he posts videos of him dancing with friends to his social media.
