In the new reality dating series Single's Inferno, nine singles, 5 men, 4 women, are sent to an island nicknamed "Inferno", where the temperature is 35 degrees Celsius, accommodation is a step up from camping (more on this later), the toilets are squatters, and singles have to cook and draw water on their own. They are there for nine days, all trying to find someone to date long term. The contestants cannot tell each other how old they are or what they do for a living.
At the end of each day, each contestant receives "postcards" in a mailbox; if they choose to match up with one of the senders (if they receive a postcard), the couple is sent to a luxury resort on an island dubbed "Paradise". There, daters can openly discuss their ages and professions, and enjoy a romantic night in a luxury suite, before heading back to “Inferno.”
Stars: Lee Da-hee, Jung Han-hae, Kyu-hyun Cho
In the first episode, the nine bachelors, all young and who seem to include exercise as one of their biggest hobbies, come in and sit awkwardly on a couch at the beach. Everyone looks at each other, and the four watchers of the show (Lee Da-hee, Kyu-hyun Cho, Jin Kyeong Hong, Jung Han-hae) sit in a bar-like studio and try to figure out who likes who.
They break up into groups of three to explore the island and see where everything is in relation to each other. Then, later, they go to the "cafeteria" to make dinner. There, some people sit and others participate and work hard. From there, the postcards fall. Who will manage to escape from hell after the first night?
Actually, the only rough thing about the island “Hell” is that it is hot and there is no air conditioning. Not that they have to create shelters for themselves: both men's and women's tents are more like glamping than anything else. The cafeteria looks like a farm to table restaurant and has all the necessary tools to make a decent meal with the food that is provided.
So these young millennials or old zoomers, most of whom are used to a life full of food and/or delivery, just think the island is a tough place, especially if they're given the carrot of spending the night. in a luxury resort. . That aspect is what makes Single's Inferno a bit different from other dating shows. Will people connect just to take a break from Hell Island, or will there be real feelings there?
But the complicated setup doesn't distract from the fact that this is generally a show where viewers can gawk at handsome men in eight-packs and pretty women sunbathing in bikinis. It might be a bit more chaste than similar reality shows here and in places like Europe and South America, but what's entertaining is the same: sexy people hooking up, even if "hooking up" here is just a little snogging.
Let's hope the producers pick up the pace in future episodes. The presentations of the nine contestants dragged on for what seemed like an eternity, and the interactions of the groups of three were cut short. The producers also flocked to the watchers a lot, which was a sign that there wasn't much dramatic movement on day one. But you will be interested if things improve as relationships develop.
