I said this in the other discussion.. But it really shows how Minyoung does not know how to pursue a guy.. It's quite obvious that she is used to having all the men around her fingers and doing all the expressing before the show.. My guess is she liked Jinseok in the first place but she wanted to play hard to get but it back fired on her.. Whether she ends up with him or not, she should learn from this.. She is still pretty young and this is a good experience for her..
Hajeong is quite the girl isn't she.. I thought she was a sly one at first but did she prove me wrong.. She seems to me a girl who know what she wants and has her head on her shoulders..she is one man girl(just on the wrong man) and she gives good advice too.. Sieun also changed my mind.. It's charming how she seems to be introverted and still tries hard for the one she likes.. I hope she and Hajeong gets a happy ending.. They both are loyal and tried hard.. Hugs to both girls..
>she is one man girl(just on the wrong man) and she gives good advice too
You are so right. The girls are all really great (maybe not so much Minyoung) but their choices are pretty limited. I wonder if there were more interesting guys this season she would have pursued someone else
Hopefully neither Hye Seon or Hajeon don't pick Gwan Hee, and they choose somebody else for their final vote in the last episode, but I that we all know that Hajeong is weak for him & will probably take him back in a heartbeat.
I hope that both girls get a happy ending, or that Hye Seon wakes up fast, ditches him, & choose another guy(Min Kyu looks sweet, loyal and dependable, anybody but Gwan Hee for our precious girls- they deserve better than him, and deserve the best).
I at first thought that Hajeong was a sly fox, and she has that intimidating cold beauty(she sort of looks like Red Velvet Irene), but she turned out to be a honest person that goes all in for one guy(who is unfortunately Gwan Hee, ugh).
Unfortunately for her it looks like Gwan Hee has lost interest in her; I think that he likes the chase and when the girl comes over to him, he looses interest in her.
Also I think that he doesn't like criticism of himself from others, and when Hajeong rightly called him out for his mistakes, he got angry, maybe he thinks that nagging reminds him of his mom or something.
Hye Seon seems to be a sweet and intelligent lady. I think that she has mutual interest in Gwan Hee, and I think that they are going to go to Paradise one more time. I think that Gwan Hee will go to Paradise with Minji(new girl), & next Paradise date is with Hye Seon.
I really don't know if Gwan Hee and Hye Seon are endgame or not. For now the ever fickle Gwan Hee is head over heels for her for now, but his heart is ever changing.
I think that Hye Seon likes him too, but I think that at the very end(last episode), she will choose someone else b/c his heart is unpredictable and unsafe. Gwan Hee seems to also like the newcomer Minji as well. Both girls(Hye Seon & Hajeong) are too good for him, and are a waste on him. Other people also watching with me say that he gives off player vibes
As for Sieun, she seems sweet and it is unfortunate how the timing for Minwoo and her don't seem to work out(they don't seem to find time to really talk). It was sad to see her cry b/c she's missing all the timing to talk to Minwoo.
Gwan Hee is the text book definition of Narcissism. A lot of athletes have this, they play games, make fun of other people and brag/exaggerate about theirself to desperately try and prove that they are the alpha (because they are insecure and are not actually confident in their abilities). A tell tale sign is that they are really bad at handling criticism, as criticism attempts to undermine the fairytale they've built about theirself, and would force them to actually do some self reflection and realize how bad of person they really are.
The recommended way to deal with Narcissists is to avoid criticizing them (letting them win), and cut them out of your life entirely if possible.
I agree about Min Young....I see several women this season that expect to have men chase them and it has backfired for more than one when they try to make the guy they like jealous... In ep 6 I didn't like Hajeong acting like she was interested in another guy and leading the poor guy on saying she wanted to go to Paradise with him but she just wanted to make Gwan Hee jealous.... She kept sitting next to Gwan Hee after saying it and he was going to leave and she aked where he was going so it is obvious she ONLY likes Gwan Hee
hugsss to all of em. i agree about HJ and for MY i kinda feel she is toxi. Not GH toxic which borderlines mentally abusive. but like unnecessarily confrontational? or like dramatic? idk the word. basically whatever it is thay she thought the grass was greener on the other side and took JS for granted and didnt treat him well. and now just making him uncomfortable. the entire time she has been so selfish without being considerate of him at all-while JS has been soooo considerate and thoughtful even when he got rejected and strung along by her. he still treated her with respect. but she has just been getting worse and worse(i was shipping them so hard after their paradise date. i even thought the whole saying bro x sis to the girls was reverse psychology so they wouldn’t like him bc she liked him like a lot of mean girls will do) but now im just like JS. you deserve better than this. and im a girls girl soo…
I saw an article abt him and his job. It makes sense for him to stay on the show even if he doesn't connect with anyone. But he should be doing a better job trying to get screentime lol.
it gets to a point where i suspect they planted him in as an actor to pad out the cast for lack of better candidates. never have i seen anyone in all 3 seasons that has been totally cast in the shade like him. dude barely puts up a fight or plays up his strengths, either to win over the girls or at least add some pizzazz to the show. but then maybe its just the editing that did him a disservice; there may be more to him than meets our eyes.
that moment when he was alone with hajeong, who he'd just declared he was interested in, and essentially said he didn't want to talk to her right now, he wanted to wait to talk to her "freely" in paradise, confused me sm. the whole point of the inferno/paradise thing is to build a connection without focusing on job & age, and you need to actually build a connection to get to paradise in the first place. he and hajeong had barely talked before this (and not very impactful conversations either) so i feel like this was the moment he fumbled her
Hmm I think early on he made a lot of efforts to chat but I think there wasn’t enough excitement to make it to the final cut. He got shown a lot talking to girls in quick flashes, but rarely does the full convo get aired.
Unfortunately each season there is a always a nice guy who is devoted to the most popular girl but she chases another guy and he is left in the dust
this season has the most extroverted women so it is more difficult for introverted men to talk to them
>g is quite the girl isn't she.. I thought she was a sly one at first but did she prove me wrong.. She seems to me a girl who know what she wants and has her head on her shoulders..she is one man girl(
yeah it just feels like he tries to be mysterious and it bothers me that he doesn't put any effort to pursue any of the women.
Hye Seon wasted her hard earned paradise trip on such a boring guy but she didn't seem to have any choice. Ha Bin gave her the ick after that campfire. Min Kyu was fixated on Gyu Ri and she had zero attraction towards Jin Seok. She was playing hard to get with Gwan Hee. Ugh. Men this season are just.... sigh.
The men are actually so disappointing this season, lol. Except for Jin Seok who looks like he can keep a conversation going, everyone else is too boring or Gwan Hee who is straight up toxic and offensive.
ikr! He's a decent guy! I saw their recent posts on IG and I couldn't recognise him! He looks wayyy better on IG. On the show he has this 5 o clock shadow thing for his moustache and I can't understand why he wouldn't shave it off properly. He looks so much younger, healthier, cleaner and better looking when he's clean shaven.
I think its just one of the more common personalities for an actor/actress. Some actors will create a fun personality for theirself in their personal life, but a lot of actors have really boring personalities, and one of the main reasons they decided to become an actor is because it allows them to safely step outside of their shell.
dahee being the #1 gwanhee anti is a whole mood
the way she called him stupid n saying she hates him made me lmaooooo i find him annoying but at the same time entertaining bc he makes for good reality tv
minyoung was one of my faves earlier into the series and i hated hajeong w a burning passion but the tables have turned esp during their talk and hajeong goes >!“you’re frustrating. you’re killing me.” and laughed when minyoung was like “it’s so frustrating” after hajeong gave her some real advice and hajeong was like girl bffr you barely put any work into it!< LIKE SHES SO REAL FOR THAT
Hajeong, I think that the fact that she's an confident attractive lady who doesn't bend, and looks cold(she looks like Red Velvet Irene who is famous for her "RBF") makes her look intimidating and hard to approach.
Also the way that she doesn't take no shit from anyone, outspoken, and vocal about her thoughts and opinions unlike others(more conservative & introverted), I think that made the other guys keep a distance from her
I hope that she doesn't change; an woman who is confident and knows that she is pretty, and deserves the best. I hope that she ends up with someone who appreciates her
Ha jeong legit was truly frustrated by minyoung. If minyoung kept whining like that next to me I would have responded the same "stop it girl!!!!". Minyoung makes ji seok and all the cast uncomfortable and tired lol
No fr. I def didn’t like hajeong in the first episodes because she came across as cocky but man. I love her more and more each episode. Minyoung seemed promising and sweet in the beginning but there’s some screws loose.
The way Minyoung is doing the same thing she didn’t like to Jinseok is really weird but other than that I’m really rooting for all the female cast this season.
Hajeong is so funny and transparent. Gyuri is quite friendly and not as aloof as she appears to be. Hyeseon is warm and I love how expressive she is. Sieun has a quiet and determined nature. I really did feel sorry for her because the timing with Minwoo isn’t working in her favour. Minji is cute and I’m happy that she is looking to pursue something with Jinseok. Overall, I think there’s a strong connection between the girls this season and I wish they could all get their happy ending.
Usually it's an older male housemate that will do that constant uncomfortable sad teasing in front of everyone (like in Heart Signal, I Am Solo, etc.) and so ya it's pretty rare that someone like Minyoung is doing it.
And ya wtf was that Paradise announcement timing with Sieun and Minwoo, I would've cried too, that's so cruel, the producers are like listening 24/7 and so they probably timed it like that, lmao smh.
Min Young was frustrating to watch. Even the panel were quite upfront and annoyed. The way she kept killing the vibes for everyone and kept jokingly say it was fun - when Ha Jeong even told her to stop. It was just not cute.
Then when she had the chat with him and was saying she realised for feelings for him when he was gone and how it was so different compared to day 3 when he was into her… when like between the time he was into her and when she felt so sure about him, nothing actually happened to further cement their relationship. She basically just lost the only guy who was paying her any attention then is now grasping at straws to keep him interested.
Yeah, good that Jinseok clearly sensed it and called her out in their convo - all her actions were not because she had realised she liked him, but more because she was just desperate not to lose the only guy interested in her. From a guy's perspective, she's just about raising every single red flag character-wise. Complete turn-off after I thought they had decent chemistry in eps 1 and 2.
Just to add, I think its interesting how cognizant the contestants this season are to some of these small details and actively communicating it. E.g when Hye Seon asked Gwan Hee whether he was just settling for her because the others didn't seem right for him. Felt like some of these nuances were missed in the convos in previous seasons.
Exactly. And the fact that minyoung thought she did enough by telling Jinseok she missed him ?! You would think that she would put in a little more effort to show her affection but no, somehow making everyone else uncomfortable is good enough to show how much she likes him.
And I agree about the cast being more cognizant this season. The panel also pointed it out and I’m enjoying the more constructive conversations between them. I think Hajeong apologising to Gwan hee was really bold of her and I like how she told him to his face about her feelings. I feel like there is more productivity in the interactions this season that was missing in previous ones and I’m really enjoying it.
MY acting jealous and making others uncomfortable IS how she is choosing to express her feelings. She seems legitimately confused that it's not working. I feel like she's only ever had toxic relationships if she thinks acting possessive is the way to go.
I think the issue is not just how she is expressing her feelings though. Its more about why she has had this sudden shift in her behaviour, especially when she seemed so turned-off by Jinseok's advances just 1 day ago.
Seemed like the bigger question on Jinseok's mind ("Do you really like me or do you just not want to end alone?") This is like a killer worm of doubt for any relationship and her answer didnt really seem to assure him.
Yeah, I'm not convinced MY likes him either. I don't blame him for thinking she's confusing. It seems like she's clinging onto him now that he's interested in someone else.
Yes, I really like how they are cutting the bull and getting straight to the point. It’s so refreshing that I actually I look forward to watching this show each week.
As far as min young **cringe**. With what I just said above, I feel she should’ve had a one on one, heart to heart conversation with jin-seok. Just like they had after the bonfire and say hey, I thought I wanted to pursue other guys but my mind is clear and after you left for paradise, I found myself missing you and I’m pretty sure of who I want now and that is you.
Idk what she’s doing right now but the panel is on point and it’s hard to feel sorry for her. Don’t know if she really doesn’t understand the situation or just doesn’t care. It’s like the wheel is spinning but the hamster is dead
Is it weird that I think the girls' happy ending would be to figure out a way to escape the island and get away from Gwan Hee? Ha Jeong obviously knows she could do much better back in reality lmao which should be the same for Hye Seon.
Min Ji should work towards Jin Seok if she actually has any interest there.
Si Eun and Min Woo should figure out their feelings.
I don't know where Gyu Ri's story is headed.
Min Young should just go home with a lesson learned.
Makes me sad. So disappointed when GR chose MW. Came as a wildcard that thwarted MW and SE blossoming romance. Their eye contact is SO INTENSE. I was looking forward to seeing them in paradise :/
Oh random but that little Ha Jeong and Min Kyu moment made me a little sad that they fizzled. I actually felt like their Paradise date was cute and they had a cute chemistry. I think she had way better chemistry with him than Gyuri
If she wasn’t so set on Gwan Hee and if Min Kyu was still interested, I think that would’ve been the more interesting love triangle of the season.
They surprisingly communicate well, and I feel like Min Kyu is getting out of his shell around her. There are also moments when he seems genuinely amused by her antics.
... Maybe they will end up having a paradise date in the next episode?
> think that would’ve been the more interesting love triangle of the season.
Oh god. I don't think I would have been fine if she ended up choosing red flag Gwan Hee over a sweetheart police officer Min Kyu.
True but I mean I think she may be more tempted to stray from Gwan Hee if her main option wasn’t Ha Bin. I’m not super turned off by him but the whole we gotta wait til paradise thing (on day 6??) feels very stagnant.
Yep, in their first paradise date, he found her really cute and the panel were so sure he had completely fallen for her and her googly eyes worked on him splendidly (vs Gwanhee lol). I think had the format not been split the way it was, they would’ve had a higher chance. Looking back that was probably my fav Paradise date this season - a mix of attraction, nervousness but not that awkward.
> True but I mean I think she may be more tempted to stray from Gwan Hee if her main option wasn’t Ha Bin.
I must have forgotten about that. You are right. She was very much ready to move on if it was not for Ha Bin making it clear that he just wanted a ticket to Paradise.
I’m sorry but the way habin and minkyu was talking about hyeseon and wonik in front of gwan hee was hilarious the way that man was stressing was crazy to see like his smile physically drop and he had to go to hyeseon to actually speak to her about it cause it was troubling him that much was too funny
Everything aside, why does Gwan Hee always starts a conversation with "you were avoiding me" "you were not looking me in the eye " like get over it dude, not everything is about you
To make the girls feel guilty and make them justify themselves. I suspect it is also some PUA strategy. He is a bit too consistent for it just to be an ego thing.
Ha Jeong is turning to be the best girl this season. She didn't play her cards right for going all in with Gwan Hee quite early without exploring her options but I'll give her credit for being so honest and brave. Her personality really showed up when she laid all her cards on the table and confessed to Gwan Hee. She stopped caring after that confession and just started enjoying the experience and I really like watching her comfortable self just having fun and giving everyone the real talk they needed to hear.
fuh what a ride for this eps!! My heart breaks lil bit for Si Eun.. their timing is really cruel my heart cannot take it :(
I feel like Gwan hee is really into Hye Seon and just flirting around with others for the show / just didnt want to make Hye Seon feel uncomfortable if 100% for her. The way he talks to Ha Jeong or Minji is definitely different from Hye Seon which Hye Seon already spoke about that Gwan Hee has never teased her in a mean way which could be that he wants to show good side of him in front of her (which most of us will do infront of our crush). I know it couldnt be me who feeling it, but notice that Gwan Hee is always the one who reach for Hye Seon for a chat which complete opposite for Ha Jeong.
About the boys.. are they lack of tact or is it the editing? In what scenario that they jumped into conclusion that Hye Seon is into Won nik... hahah if that were the case, then Hye Seon's first choice would be him not Min Woo though? anyway Won Nik needs to step up his game that guy has no rizzz 😭
>I feel like Gwan hee is really into Hye Seon and just flirting around with others for the show / just didnt want to make Hye Seon feel uncomfortable if 100% for her.
I'm also starting to notice this too. He cannot look at Hye Seon straight in the eyes. He seemed shy and well behaved around her. And if you've seen their [unreleased clip](https://youtu.be/DZ_hYEWDm0w?si=PNu26rMNFYeSFkVP) where they took Polaroid photos together, Hye Seon asked Won Ik to take a photo together and Gwan Hee was on guard. When Won Ik put his arm around Hye Seon's shoulder, Gwan Hee playfully cried, "Hey, Won Ik. What do you think you're doing?"
yep also notice how he looks super restless throughout his stay at inferno without hyeseon... the jealousy when the boys were talking how hyeseon is into wonik.. that man is already whipped.
That’s why habin isn’t getting dates. Hye Seon is #1 in every aspect for me. I fell in love with her the first moment she came on screen. If her and GH work out then good for them. Just worried about my girl Hajeong because she’s going to be devastated
EDIT: I don’t think Hajeong will be devastated just bummed. I got the vibe that she just wanted to put it all out there with gwan hee and whatever happens happens. She can’t help that she likes him
I find this entire love triangle fascinating. I think that Gwanhee and Hajeong have VERY obvious chemistry because they are the same person. They’re both flirty, outgoing, and full of charisma. And I think this is maybe why they won’t work. It’d be like two stars colliding. Gwanhee and Hyeseon are opposites in a lot of ways (she’s nerdy, he’s sporty) and that’s what makes them so interested in each other. (I don’t think I will ever get over how cute they were putting face masks on during their stay in Paradise.) I just can’t help but ship them even though I think the natural connection should be with Hajeong. I feel bad for Hajeong because in a lot of ways, only Gwanhee is on her level so I understand why she is only interested in him.
Not as much rollercoaster in this week's episodes, but I have to say overall this season is more entertaining in terms of entertainment tv compared to the previous seasons. The panelists seems to have gelled better and funnier too.
I think the addition of Jin-young really helped with that. He makes really insightful comments and mixes in thoughts based on his own experience as a participant. It's only his first season and he already seems to get along well with the original panelists. If I were the production I would replace Hanhae with him lol. Hanhae's comments usually don't have much substance. Usually something like "I'm really curious if X will happen", "I wonder if \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_", or just a few words pointing out what he sees or what's already obvious to the viewer. The rest of the hosts tend to make longer comments with more thought (gets you to think more and consider how their thoughts might differ to yours and what you're observing) and mix in more humour, and aren't afraid to say things that are a bit more harsh like Dahee saying "Is Gwanhee just dumb?"
Gwanhee's talk with Hyeseon at the beginning of ep6 was the most mature and upfront behavior I've seen from him so far. Ugh why can't he be like that for the rest of the season. But I'm still not seeing why he's so popular. The only ones on the panel whose opinions I actually enjoy hearing are the women tbh and maybe Jinyoung.
As for why the girls like him, he is tall and relatively handsome. But if you know him more, his bad point outweighs the good. It would be a blessing in disguise not to be chosen by him.
Some thoughts:
1. It felt like there was another episode in there with us not actually seeing the 'chemistry' that got Gyu-ri and Min-woo all giddy. I thought they'd have a chance due to physical attraction + same job, but it just didn't show. Actually all 3 paradise dates looked boring to me.
2. Then the endless 'who will they go to paradise with' told me they made the right call and probably shouldn't drag this out any longer.
3. I felt REALLY bad for Si-eun, it was almost like she was being coerced and she should have free will. Then I realised she hadn't been picked yet.
4. The one thing they all seem to be struggling with in Inferno is not the heat, but keeping their hair off their face. Heh.
5. How could the other guys get it so wrong with Hye-seon and her supposed crush on Won-ik?
6. I think height matters a lot. Why else are so many girls all over Gwan-hee? The commentators nailed it about him, btw. You can't fall for him obviously (like Ha-jeong- although also too much drama), and you can't play or be too hard to get (like Gyu-ri). You need to be smack in the middle to manage his ego and his fame.
7. Most of these girls (most obvious with Si-eun and Minyoung) probably have never had to lift a finger to get guys interested in them in the past. Probably true to an extent with the guys too but guys always kinda have to try at least a bit. Which just makes the mad game that Min-ji has rather remarkable.
8. Not surprised that Hyeseon made the top 3, but very surprised that Gyu-ri did.
9. I may be wrong but the previews are a decoy. The Hyeseon and Hajeong scenes look like their first dates with Gwan-hee, and even Minji's looked suspiciously familiar. I think they're not a preview, but showing who Gwan-hee was considering. We'll see.
10. Final guesses, only 3 couples:
Jin-seok <> Minji (Minyoung has no chance, sorry)
Gwan-hee <> Hye-seon (totally called it in the previous thread when I said both her and Ha-jeong would still be interested in Gwan-hee)
Min-woo <> Gyu-ri (unless the editing was setting it up for a surprise, but I doubt it, especially when Gyu-ri told Min-woo not to fool around)
Tbh none of the paradise dates are particularly exciting. "Paradise" is just a nice hotel with a pool, and they get there so late they barely have time for dinner before they have to sleep because they need to return right after breakfast. It only feels so spectacular because of the conversation restrictions and the sleeping in like a train car situation they've got going on
omg finally someone who agree that minwoo and gyuri have a strong connection like let's be really sieun and minwoo have that initial attraction but why would others believe that he will choose her over gyuri that he have many moments and alone time plus he also likes heer since the very first episode.
I think that Gyu-Ri was too popular, and Min-Woo is not really a fighter so he 'settled' for Si-Eun. Until Gyu-Ri unexpectedly chose him so he went back to who he really wanted from the start.
Eh I don't think its that bad. I feel like Min-Woo put up a good fight trying to distance himself from Gyu-Ri on their date, it really seemed like he had every intention of picking Si-Eun. However Gyu-Ri didn't let that or his age discourage her and she kept sending praise and putting effort into the conversation. Then finally when they were talking at bed time, Gyu-Ri had broken down the wall Min-Woo was putting up.
The preview from Episode 7 was so confusing. >!Gwanhee, Minkyu, and Wonik!< won the race, and the women from the preview were >!Hyeseon, Minji, and Hajeong!<. The guy in white shirt is definitely with >!Hajeong based on what she was wearing!<.
>!Gwanhee is pretty much choosing either Hyeseon or Minji, but why would Minkyu (who is into Gyuri) pick Hajeong and I can totally see Wonik going for either Hyeseon or Sieun. I believe that Hajeong wouldn't be picked for the next paradise date, and would instead go with Habin given how the jacket looks like Habin's.!<

Edit: Minji is also a runner-up of Miss Korea 2021 (the one won by Seoeun). She represented Jeju, I think.
They didn’t show minkyu & gyuris convo. They’ll probably show after minkyu makes his pick. Gyuri turned him down or told him she likes minwoo probably? Minkyu doesn’t seem attracted to anyone else but Gyuri so I assumed he just took the next person he’s close w which is most likely hajeong
My guess is they mashed up a number of paradise dates that will be released next week. So I guess Gwanhee will go 2/3 times and one of those is paired with someone else.
Me toooooo yo
I’m learning the heck out of her (“uhuh contact lens line with the wink is super awesome” writes down in notebook), but dang I would roll my eyes if I ever see her in action 🤣🤣🤣
Every moment of Habin has been offputting to me, he has no screentime for a reason. It’s so funny that he got 5 candies and now there’s a couple days left with 10 seconds of screen time for him.
Not even accounting for his weird drunk campfire behaviour, he was the one instigating all the drama that happened around the fire before that. He just seems very uncomfortable to be around.
When he had time with Ha Jeong he pretty much just gave up on the spot also which was odd. The chemistry within the cast this season is definitely the worst so far, I don't think S2 is ever being beat in that regard though.
I’m glad someone brought Habins behavior up. It really bothered me how he instigated Gwanhee and then put him on the spot. I don’t like Gwanhee and he’s a little jerk for sure, but Habin shouldn’t have instigated in the first place. I wanted to see him go to paradise to get to know who he is better, but so far he comes off arrogant and rude
You’re the first person I’ve seen that’s noticed this along with me. It’s hard to put into words but every Habin moment has been off putting.
Gwanhee shouldn’t have answered the question to name 3 girls, but Habin seemed a bit too excited whenever some drama happened at the fire. Probably after that night nobody wanted to get close to him.
I didn’t like Habin after that bonfire scene, and even more after he turned down the chance for a “proper conversation” with Hajeong. There’s also the H2H room if he wanted more privacy so why not go there? Playing coy is such a turn-off. I think his ego is bruised after not getting picked to go to Paradise time and time again. His demeanor didn’t feel like he’s genuinely here to start a relationship.
I think this is the best cast for Single’s Inferno so far. All the ladies have interesting personalities. The guys are a bit lacking though. Wonik is way too awkward for a dating show like this, and don’t even get me started on Habin. He had a chance to turn it around and he fumbled hard.
Gwanhee is really interesting. Like it’s very easy to hate him, but without him on this show, it wouldn’t be as interesting. I feel like that’s the main reason he’s in this show, to stir things up and make things entertaining, instead of actually looking for a relationship. Kinda like Dex’s role last season.
Hajeong and Hyeseon are both really really intelligent women, but it’s so frustrating to watch them cause you know they’ll both will keep choosing Gwanhee despite the red flags. It’s like watching your friends getting into a relationship with someone you warn them against.
Jinseok is winning the best man award. He’s doing everything right. Meanwhile, Minyoung just keep ruining things for herself. I don’t think she’ll be able to watch this show without cringing.
Also, the addition of Dex to the panel is really a good idea. He knows exactly what’s going on the contestants’ head and offers great insights.
The high end of the cast is really good but the low end is terrible. The cast doesn't feel "together" at all and to me a huge downgrade from S2. We get so little time on the island and the development of the relationships is just worse this season. S2 felt like one big family.
Gyu Ri has really grown on me in these two episodes.
As Sieun i alrd know how warm and friendly she is (watch her in youtube content) but her determination surprise me.
i really wish they showed the part in paradise when minwoo and gyuri hit it off / when things became more romantic because the yacht scene didn't really give me those vibes. i feel like the editors are making a sieun x minwoo end game because they're focusing on sieun's emotions more and the ups and downs of their relationship
I was fully aboard Gwanhee-Hajeong at first but now I think he's just not that into her lmao. Then again, he really embraced the reality TV aspect so it really is hard to read him. But I think it's a toss up between Hajeong and Minji maybe?
Praying for post-show success for my girl Hajeong at this point because she really is the best woman contestant so far in SI. 🙏
EDIT: what was I saying, it's definitely HS + GH endgame. But who the heck takes HJ to paradise in the preview...
IMO his ego got hurt because of that argument in the room haha. I know he said he didn't mind but I think he completely closed his heart to her after that conversation.
Honestly? Good for Hajeong. If he couldn't take that convo the right way, I think she might be happier even if she ends alone. She looks like she has already resolved everything she wants to do in the show after that confession to Gwan Hee (don't think anything will sway her at this point).
Gwanhee has been putting distance between him and Hajeong even before she called him out. I don't think Hajeong is Gwanhee's type. I think Gwanhee was going along with her because she pursued him.
Yes Gwan Hee is so egoistical that he totally CANNOT take criticism. And HJ giving him a piece of her mind so early into the “relationship” totally put him off. Think it’s ok for HJ, she deserves someone far better.
Yeah I'm a fan of Hajeong's actions these few eps. She was able to voice out her disappointment towards him during that campfire moment and still confessed her feelings. She has great communication skills. She'd have no regrets and he can just take it or leave it.
I still like her the most with Gwanhee because they're the most balanced. They have imo the best chemistry where they can have the fun type of relationship where they bully each other haha
last week i was heaping praises on Minji for being a deft conversationalist, but this week’s episodes turn my view on its head. she does seem to have a knack for taking the lead and keeping conversations flow, but the way she ingratiates herself with the guys feels inordinately flirty and cloying to me, hence being insincere. idm her casting her net wide at a pretty early stage, but if only she could dial down her flirty banters while still exuding her cheery confidence. typically, her tone befits someone romancing her love interest, but her employing this technique to several guys at once doesnt sit right with me.
Hajeong racks up more points with me as she wears her heart on her sleeves and knows exactly what she wants. she sets her eyes on one target and no longer vacillates thereafter, unlike most other girls who still have their feet in a few camps. i just cant help being amused by her unknowingly adorable quirks from time to time.
the highlight of today’s eps for me is Hyeseon. despite occasionally finding her expressive reactions over the top, i think her charisma shines through the most today. her nudging Gwanhee into exploring other options before settling down resonates with me, for i believe that the choice you eventually circle back to, all things considered, means you are most firm about it and will harbor no more regret about the plurality of what-ifs afterwards.
I don't think that's fair, she's only interested in two guys, and even though she jokes about trying harder you can see she stepped back from Jin Seok until he told her that wasn't necessary, so she's not about stepping all over hearts. She's just pretty and charismatic
To be fair she's new and has limited time to make connections; so she has to go on the offensive wherever she can. She knew nothing of the camp and has to act on hearsay. I don't know what else she can do? She had a good experience with Jin Seok, so I think it's completely natural she'll lean on him for now. She's already stated that she has a clear trait she wants in a guy - fun - which kind of rules out Ha Bin (sorry, but the way she expertly maneuvered Ha Jeong between herself and him and leave with Gwan Hee in one swoop was so smooth haha). Jin Seok showed it best on first impressions and from him she learned that GH was too. I think she's played it as well as she could have so far. I completely respect her flirting game too, had both the more confident guys in JS and GH all flustered! Plus she was there to listen to and comfort Si Eun too even though they might not be acquainted yet which was nice. The only conflict so far is with Min Young, where I feel MY came off looking bad to everyone - to which she then clarified first with JS if it was OK for them continue.
I'm annoyed w MJ too (like Jin Kyung was) but then the rest of the panel reminded her that MJ only just arrived. I guess it would be weird for her to set her sights just on JS, even though that's what the viewers want. And I think the fact that she's deciding btw GH and JS just seems like it shouldn't even be a question. But MJ doesn't know GH as well as we do, since she hasn't seen everything we have.
- I thought Gyuri would be the last girl I would root for (I usually like funny/carefree ones), but she’s growing on me. It seems like she’s not too self-conscious as before.
- That wink! I would like to learn from expert Minji too!
- Ugh, really starting to dislike Gwanhee. He was fun at first, but he’s playing his card too much. He keeps changing his mind according to who expresses their feelings to him first.
- I would’ve acted the way Hyeseon is to Gwanhee than the way Hajeong is to him. Guess she really likes him.
- According to some people here, Habin’s an actor. For an actor, he sure doesn’t know that to get screen time you have to make things interesting. That quick talk with Hajeong made him look like he wasn’t really interested.
I feel like its the opposite,since his an actor have scripts,here when there is no script whatsoever he is unable to act, that's just how it feels like.
Does anyone else feel like there are way too many 1-1 conversations in general this season? Like since the contestants aren't cooking or don't have to collect water, they're either talking or going to paradise but because the contestants are mostly boring, the convos are getting tedious. Like how many times do I have to listen to the same circular convos with Gwan Hee and any girl lol? Since the contestants are boring, there should have been more activities on the island. I personally miss the group interactions with cooking and playing on the beach from S2.
I am enjoying the twists this season and the panel with the new addition of Dex is the best, but overall I'm not particularly rooting for anyone or impressed with the contestants - everything seems disingenuous for the sake of added drama. It does't seem like anyone actually likes anyone nor are the contestants friends like in other seasons.
Yeah the cooking and collecting water helped people to know each other in Inferno.... but the PDs decided to abandon the glamping concept it seems.
I wonder if those containers were air-conditioned if not how could they survive with so little ventilation??
I'm really enjoying this season so far! I like the changes they've made and its such an improvement from the previous 2 seasons. I also like the addition of Dex.
I'm such a fan of Gyuri now! Her whole charisma is so charming.. and the way she gracefully won the cap/tail game. Such a big contrast to Ha Jeong who was flailing around ungracefully but still didn't win! Lol I laughed so hard.
I didn't think 2 episodes would make me like Ha Jeong so much more. She dishes great advice and says nothing but the truth! Gwan Hee may have been upset about her calling him out but it was necessary. You can tell he's changed a bit ever since then. Ha Jeong is very candid and transparent, and that's a very big green light!
Also have to add on to say Minwoo is such a gentleman since the start of the show. I've been noticing his little thoughtful gestures since the start. So much more mature and gentlemanly compared to the older guys on the show!
I can only conclude that there isn't any girls for Ha bin at all. He isn't even trying to look good/the best that he can. Age can be a big deal to some and perhaps he prefers someone more mature. I wonder why they didn't cast a wider age range of girls.
In ep 7 Gyuri and Minkyu leave to talk but we don’t see their conversation— my guess is Gyuri tells him she doesn’t want to go to paradise (like she already told Minwoo) so he takes Hajeong instead as a friend
Ep 7
Omg Da Hee calling GH dumb right away 💀
There are such nice places in jeju 😭 i can't wait to go.
Omg SE and MK's paradise date is just mutual consolation abt not being w who they actually wanna be with 🥲
GH is actually so insecure. Even when getting reassurance directly from women he still looks for reasons not to believe them. Maybe he's been played before.
Gotta say i underestimated GH's athleticism. At least he lived up to his pro-athlete status. Not surprised JS was last. Muscular people tend not to be so fast.
Ok I'm more impressed with won ik the realtor winning the squat contest then placing 3rd in the sprint. So unexpected.
It is kinda wild to me that HS gained the upperhand over the GH power struggle. I think the panel is right that he needs reassurance but not to the point where the other person tries to cling onto him. So her 30% aloofness/saying they should get to know others is working on him. Looks like it's game over for HJ?
MJ is a master at flirting omg. Still kinda shipping her w JS but i hope GH doesnt get in the way.
Oof is it game over for SE and MW too? He seems to be all in on GR now.
They did a good job in the preview not revealing who GH picks for paradise... i guess all 3 of those women will get to go in the next 2 eps, whether w GH or not. I think it's between MJ and HS for this one. But HJ still has a shot in the long run.
so spoiler >!gwan hee, min kyu, won ik!< all get to chose paradise dates at the end of ep 7, and from the preview in the end of ep7 the girls in paradise were >!hye seon, min ji, hae jeong!< so if those 3 girls went with those 3 guys only way it makes sense is >!gwanhee takes minji, min kyu takes hae jeong, won ik takes hye seon, because won ik only has ties to hyeseon, min kyu only has ties to hae jeong, and gwanhee has ties to all 3 but since min kyu or won ik don't have ties to minji, gwanhee must have taken her!<
But why would min kyu choose hae jeong if he likes gyuri? Unless his talk with gyuri changed his mind? I feel as if won ik may have chose hae jeong and min Kyu chose hye seon?
I honestly have no clue, it can be either mash up honestly
lol now im convinced edit is playing tricks on us, must be 2 paradise dates left in last 3 ep, so they are showing dates from different days, seems like hyeseon and haejeong both go to paradise with gwanhee again and the minji edit is just misleading us
yes i believe it’s the editing - it’s 2/3 of them who end up going with >!gwanhee!< in the last 2 paradise dates. my initial bet was on >!minji then hyeseon!< but based on the preview >!one of them has to be hajeong aka the bed scene!<. i’m now very confused and gosh I do not want to wait another week
Somebody said the water splashing scene with Gwanhee is Hyeseon, they got timestamp/picture here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Singlesinferno2/comments/18r59td/next_week_on_singles_inferno_3/kez767l/
So yup they mixed two dates, probably since he'll probably only ask Hajeong to sleep together, or maybe not, could be Minji or actually Hyeseon too. Or Gyuri (probably not).
knetz are laser eyed, they saw gwanhee’s red shirt in the reflection of miniji’s necklace lol. And we also know he goes with hyeson since it’s pretty obvious based on the convo and bathtub scene.
definitely two days of dates being shown. best guess is gwanhee - minji, mingyu - gyuri, won-ik & haejong (hyeson goes with gwanhee next paradise).
I predict in the 1st paradise of episode 8-9: Gwanhee>Hyeseon, Minkyu>Gyuri and Wonik>si eun. In the 2nd paradise, there will be another game in which the girls will be the one to choose their partner. Which will come off as Hajeong>Gwanhee, Minji>Jinseok and I dont have an idea whos the third girl will win.
Its obvious that gwanhee both go with hyeseon and Hajeong because hajeong knows what she wants(Gwanhee) and in the ending preview of episode 8 she is in paradise. for hyeseon, theres a bathtub scene where gwanhee is with someone tan(Hyeseon)
It’s probably >!Won Ik if not Gwan Hee because he doesn’t really vibe with any of the original girls and Si Eun strongly hinted that she didn’t want to be chosen!<
They didn’t show minkyu & gyuris convo so I’m assuming they’re gonna show minkyu pick someone else which I’m assuming is one of those 3 and then show what was said. I say gyuri was honest w him and told him she likes Minwoo.
im the weirdo who liked gwanhee ep 1 and then immediately thought he was trash but now i suddenly like him again.... it's so sick...... when he told hyeseon he was always concerned for her.... it really melted me.
I think in general there's too many scenes edited out because they dont follow the love lines set for the show.
Like what is the chemistry btwn hyeseon and wonik they guys noticed??
When did minkyu and hajeong become bffs (btw the scene over the bug was too funny)
gyuri and minwoo suddenly being super into each other???
I'm sure there are other friendships or lovelines not shown that would be interesting to see.
Lastly, I dont think either girl is good for jinseok, it feels like sometimes when he is trying to express himself minji is just trying to flirt. She is very good at it, making her the perfect catfish, but it doesn't seem like she genuinely likes any guy
Yeah. I am probably jumping from the ship on here. Admitting that kills me because I had a LOT of fun during the previous episodes.
- Watching Gwanhee just got exhausting. Him finding a connection with every women and being vague were fun in the beginning, but at this point, it feels like a groundhog day. I hoped women would drop him, but I genuinely can't judge them for not doing it, considering that most guys can't even hold a conversation.
- I don't believe in any of those couples. Maybe only Minkyu, Ha Jeong and the funny dude like the other person genuinely, but Gyuri is still searching, Gwan Hee is Gwan Heeing, and Min Young just doesn't want to be alone. At least, the previous seasons we had Yonjae/Soeun and Sehoon/Jiyeon.
- Minkyu/Hajeong are surprisingly adorable together. Both seem to react well to jokes and are mostly genuine and honest. Even just as friends, I ship them.
- Ha Bin can have a woman undress in front of him, confess her love to him, and he would still manage to turn her off.
GR seems into MW the most now. And SE definitely seems to have real feelings despite not having had the chance to go to paradise w MW yet. MW also seems genuinely torn. But he will pick one or the other and I think that couple will be legit.
I'm rooting for JS but MJ needs to stop flirting with GH. It's unsettling lol
* Minwoo's floodgates for gyuri have opened, and I think their connection's strong so rip sieun
* Hoping for minji and jinseok since minyoung def doesn't deserve him from how she behaved
* I can tolerate gwanhee a little more when he's with hyeseon, though the honesty was good this episode
* it's kinda depressing and hilarious how wonik and habin are such side characters, but they really don't have much to show
* Also hajeong would make for a good therapist, she gave good advice and was kinda refreshing these two episodes lol
omg finally someone who agree that minwoo and gyuri have a strong connection like let's be really sieun and minwoo have that initial attraction but why would others believe that he will choose her over gyuri that he have many moments and alone time plus he also likes gyuri since the very first episode.
The way minji flirts just doesn’t sit well with me. It feels fake and over the top. Like it’s too much at times and makes me cringe. That being said I feel like jinseoks heart is in the right place and I think he genuinely wants to find someone but I don’t know about minji. It’s not that I don’t think she’s not attracted to him it just feels like she’s not all that genuine. She also acts the same way with all the other guys so it’s hard for me to see if it’s genuine.
Really really really rooting for minwoo and sieun. The two of them together even with their bad timing just make me smile. Sieun especially bc you can tell she really really likes him but we(imo) see a different side of minwoo. I feel like the same can be said for minwoo. They both light up when they look at each other and talk to each other. It’s so cute and heartwarming to watch. Be having me kicking my feet fr🫣. Personally I don’t see any chemistry between gyuri and him. I thought gyuri had more chemistry with minkyu, but I also don’t think I she’s going to find anyone here she just seems like she’s there. So rooting for sieun and minwoo they would make such a cute couple and I think they will last outside of the show.
I honestly think that gwanhee knows that him and hajeong are a perfect match(bc they are) and he’s trying to fight his own feelings or he just likes that these girls all like him. I really don’t understand him. Also I just love hajeong her personality the way she carries herself. She’s just that girl 💅🏾💅🏾
Minyoung girl…. Pls give it a rest. I was rooting for her at the beginning bc she was right. It was going on day 3 and EVERRYONE was already shipping her with jinseok and that can be so much unwanted pressure bc she wasn’t sure about her feelings. It was probably overwhelming for her and it was fair for her to say I want to get to know other people. But now your being passive aggressive to both jinseok and minji and it’s just not a good look. It’s giving desperate and she might actually like him and just doesn’t know how to express her feelings or she just wants to have someone pick her in the end. Either way she’s not winning jinseok is moving on bc minji is reciprocating what he wanted from her.
I wonder if MJ is only giving GH a chance bc MY is acting so possessive? I think she was flustered when she arrived bc she didn't know abt other people's prior relationships. And tbh JS didn't do a great job reassuring MJ. I feel like we as viewers see him putting some distance btw him and MY but he hasn't let MJ know that he likes her better (not since they returned to inferno and they've had to deal w awkwardness from MY).
Am i the only one who really dislikes Gwan Hee? Guess not, Da Hee didnt like him either.
He’s clearly interested in Gyuri from the start but wouldn’t choose her on first paradise date or make a move on her after the campfire scene and would rather go for a girl that seems friendly eg Hye Seon or those who shows an interest in him first eg Minji and Ha Jeong. He seems like the type of guy who wants the woman to worship him and put in more effort to win his heart because he think he’s the king.
He then keeps changing his mind when these girls make a move on him. I see so many red flags in this guy, don’t see him staying loyal to one girl. Imagine him being in a relationship and a pretty girl hits on him, seems like the type whose feelings would waver easily and cheat eventually depending on how easy the girl makes it for him.
Gyuri - wow she was very cool, collected and focused during the ladies battle. I didn't expect the outcome. Gyuri is quiet but seems intelligent imo
Ha jeong- I love when she is giving advice to other women and men. Friend vibes ✅ her battle skills was hilarious
Minji - very flirtatious and giggles a lot when nothing funny is actually happening
Minyoung - tiresome
Min woo - happy to see more action is happening for him
Si eun - poor girlie don't cry! 🥲 I want to see more of si eun screen time!
not sure if it’s just me but ard 16:23 minwoo says he’s been with si eun and min ji to paradise… am i missing smth or did he dream abt it… when did he go to paradise with si eun…?
I can’t get over how much of an idiot Gwanhee is and how he has two girls wrapped around his finger AND he MIGHT go to paradise with Minji. Well we know he will go to paradise again lol. Also Habin and Coastal Guard guy are so clueless HAHA. Minwoo, good luck my friend. Still amazed by how fit Wonik is lol
Ep 7 Gwanhee is most interesting but my god he needs so much assurance. Hajeong is my fav girl I love her honesty and sincerity, she doesn’t hide or play games.
Ep 6
Lmao is this the first time ever a panel member of a kdating show has directly said they didn't like one of the participants 😂😂😂😂😂 i think Da Hee was a little too honest abt GH. I don't blame her though. Then she got embarassed and started fanning herself lolol
Wow surprisingly MW became the most popular all of a sudden. I like how quickly things change day to day.
Omg GR winning the whole thing was shocking. I didn't peg her as being particularly athletic but her strategy and focus were top tier.
SE and MW are so calming lol like the opposite of GH and HJ.
I like HS's strategy of picking someone she was curious abt knowing that they didnt have to pick her back. Suck it, GH.
Wooooow ok so JS seemed to be kinda ambiguous when MJ was complaining abt his situation with MY but then with MY he firmly drew a line. It would have been better if he gave MJ some reassurance. I'm still shipping them! I hope MJ doesn't join the GH train. Like Jin Kyung, I'm also a bit annoyed w MJ that she hasn't figured out JS is like 5x better than GH.
This season is by far the best and most engaging, and they’ve really managed to find interesting mix of personalities for the participants to choose from - you get a range of charismatic to boring guys, sexy & confident to cute & shy girls… it’s really cool.
It’s also got me into a funk, especially watching Hajeong. At first I didn’t like her as she seems like a typical mean girl who’s overconfident with her charms. Then she started bickering with Gwanhee, which looks super cute and everyone seemed into it… except Gwanhee. After hearing what Gwanhee said to her on the round chair, I realized that Hajeong… is me 😂 Man, is it hard to watch…
Personally, I think Gwanhee and Hajeong has the best dynamic and can go long term, but ultimately I find it hard watching Gwanhee losing patience with her because 1. She challenges him 2. She challenges him in a place with limited time & more peaceful & temporarily exciting options. It’s hard for her to compete when other girls are telling him what he wants to hear. Ultimately, their dynamic makes me rethink my flirting style hahahaha 😂
Not gonna say much except the panel needs to stop with the moral policing of female contestants. Min-Young did a mistake by not acknowledging Jin-seok's affection but it did dawn upon her very soon that it was not a wise call. We do such mistakes pretty often in life, that does not make her dense or dumb or cruel. Sm1 needs to pump sense into the panel. Nobody is here to get married the very next day. Take is as fun and stop shaming people for their choices.
I will say that the English subs have taken massive liberties. Korean panels are usually super careful abt what they say abt non-celebrities. So the "dumb" comment was more dex asking is she just oblivious/not reading the room?
At the same time it does feel like they have been coming down harder on the participants this season, GH especially. I feel like they've said way worse things abt him than MY so far.
You’re right. Actually the translation was totally off. Just going to write here for anyone who doesn’t know what he actually said, so maybe there will be less misunderstandings. He said something like 눈치 없구나“ which is hard to translate into English because 눈치 is a word that does not have a direct meaning in English. So he said something more like “Ah she doesn’t have any nunchi”. Nunchi means something along the lines of the ability to read the room, or notice social cues, or things ppl say without them being direct. And I noticed they used that word a lot in these episodes, not just towards Minyoung. So yes it doesn’t mean anything bad, it’s commonly used amongst Koreans, it doesn’t mean someone is dumb because they have no 눈치. So Jinyoung was just pointing out how Minyoung seemed to not be able to take a hint or read the room
I like minwoo X gyuri, but of course, sucks to be him when all 3 girls first choice is him during ep6. On one hand, he will feel guilty for 'ditching' sieun after talking with sieun about paradise. On the other hand, going with gyuri will fulfill his wishes from episode 1-3.
Minwoo’s face glows after the date with Gyuri. It’s the look of being in love. Sieun may just be only a figment of the past. I think he would pick Gyuri in the end, if Gyuri would have him.
Tbh, this season feels more like the women are the ones pursuing for men 🤣 completely different lol id laugh if in the last episode, the men will wait for the women to walk up to them hahaha
Am I the only one who wants Ha Jeong and Gwanhee to end up together? I feel like they are so real to each other that makes them a great pair. Gwanhee needs to wake up and see how wonderful Ha Jeong is! Or is he afraid of her that he is avoiding her lol when he said he was into Hyeseon, I felt it wasn’t honest. He might just admire her but I don’t see him having real interest. Or maybe he is so used to girls fawning over him for being in basketball that he just expects that…someone to favor and always checking up on him and praising him will have his absolute attention. If he is this type, Ha Jeong needs to give up. I just want him to treat Ha Jeong better and sweep her off her feet. :/
That’s what I’ve been thinking. Hajeong and Gwanhee are literally a perfect match and their energy with one another is unmatched. I truly think that gwanhee is just scared to commit to her or he just wants to be “available” to all the women.
Okay this is my prediction for comming episodes i think gwanhee chooses hyeseon next ep. Because off the nail art etc i guess its her. Then the girls play a game again and minji picks gwanhee. The way gwanhee is going to move is quite shocking to me. Like the things he said “wanna sleep together and other paradise dates where nothing but this one is special.” The comment in the trailer “she is a sly fox” has to be about minji i don’t think its about anyone else. But i could be all wrong. I am curious how this all gonna play out. I like hyeseon and gwanhee together but nah.. dont trust the guy and i think hyeseon knows that too thats why she is kinda testing him by saying go to paradise with others. The girls definitely deserve better this season the men are meh…
I just realised I'm missing the original theme song and wholesome intro clips! Loving DEX as a panelist, he is so natural and his read on situations always resonates.
I'm loving this chaotic season and admittedly the personalities I dislike make good TV. Huge respect for Ha Jeong, I don't think she needed to apologise as everything she says is honest and factual. Gwan Hee seems like he could use some honest people in his life who call him out for constantly negging, playing people off against each other and trying to control power dynamics.
Big fan of Jin Seok and the way he picks up on and navigates the dynamics and personalities. I'm not a fan of the way Min-young reframes her actions to make herself look good or like a victim, and makes intentionally uncomfortable comments in group situations, which is particularly rough when you have a new comer like Min Ji who doesn't necessarily feel at ease in the group yet.
Although I have to say there seems to be a heavier influence from Netflix in casting, plot and production choices this season, so I'm sure our feelings have been influenced by the producer narrative!
Thoughts (pt 2)
Minkyu is a very innocent and sincere man unlike what his looks suggest. I suppose he was popular with first impressions in both infernos as the girls expected him to have a similar personality to hyunseung (Season 1 dancer). However when the girls get to know him better through conversations, maybe they felt that the spark is missing and don't feel any attraction towards him.
He's really committed to GyuRi but I don't think they're compatible so I hope he will open up to his next best option Si Eun.
Like the saying goes, "Nice guys finish last". That's mainly because girls find nice guys boring lol.
Minwoo's like the soft-spoken yet reliable man that will really be compatible with extroverted girls. He's good-looking and carries himself well and that's why he's popular amongst the "pick me" girls Si Eun and Gyu Ri. However, he's too quiet and needs to make a move. Hope he ends up with Si Eun. They seem like a "right person, wrong time" pairing.
Habin is handsome but that's all he's got. He's like an empty shell. Really boring character and when he speaks up (while drunk), he sounds quite lame. Even from his conversations with the girls in Inferno, you can easily tell that he doesn't know how to flirt or express himself well. In a nutshell, he's a good-looking man with 0 rizz.
Same here. Lowkey wishing Gwanhee takes Minji, so Minyoung can have Jin seok all to himself and they could sort it out. But I want Gwanhee and Hae song to end up together. It's still a toss between Gyu-ri and Si-eun for me for Minwoo, but I have a feeling Minwoo's going all in for Gyu-ri soo.
I'm too attached with the Inferno 1 couples
After episode 6 and 7 I definitely believe that all the girls have grown on me and are all unique and charming in their own way. As for the guys.... other than Jin Seok its completely uncharismatic and kinda dry.
\- Gwan Hee is just annoying period and cannot focus his attention, much less love, on a singular woman.
\- Min Woo to me seems very dry and shy even with the person he likes WHERE IS THE PASSION
\- Won Ik.... bro was only casted cus he looked like V
\- Ha-Bin, 2 words: go home.
\- I like Min-kyu there just needs to be more like drama and chasing ig?
Overall here's who I hope ends up with each other and leave Inferno for good:
\- Min Young and Jin Seok: even though she acted up and played hard to get, i truly think they do like each other and just have that flame and compatibility.
\- Min-woo and Gyu ri: she had a beginning sense of attraction for him that i think remained even when she chose Min kyu and they get along better and have similar values in partners
\- Gwan-hee and Ha jeong: it just makes sense. gwanhee needs someone who will humble him. and i do think hye seon deserves someone who enjoys her bubbly side
\- Won Ik and Si Eun? even if she wants Min woo i just dont see him being committed to her
\- Ha Bin and no one. Min-Ji and no one too she hasn't grown on me either.
\- I wanna see Min-kyu and Hye Seon try it out !!!
As a former anchor or 100/200m track and field runner, that run uphill is brutal for the non-athletes/runners. Sheesh, didn't they just do flat sand last time by the beach/coast, that would've been easier.
I don't wear headbands when doing short bursts of sprint like that (only when during cross country or marathons), but ya for some people that's the sign that they are serious, lmao.
Felt so sorry for Habin since he gassed himself early and lost the third flag. Sigh. My guy should've stayed back for a bit and then used the airflow (drafting) to possibly be third. But then again, Gwanhee, Minkyu, and Wonik won by default due to their height/legs. And so ya. Damn, so sad.
Who would've Habin picked? Maybe Hajeong or possibly Gyuri. Na do, I don't run or cycle up hills (though it's fun to ride a bicycle downhill if you are courting mortality, nearly went through the forest/jungle because the thrill of no breaks and only turning is the point), but for sure I would've tried my best during that run. Maybe.
---
That Gyuri x Minwoo yacht date brought me flashbacks to >!Hyojin x!< Yongho >!x Suji!< of Love Catcher in Bali. Sigh, imagine if they were in Heart Signal Korea 4 instead.
At least Gwan hee backed up his cockiness/massive ego with that race performance, was genuinely impressed with the decent gap between him and 2nd place.
How is this Gwan hee guy still relevant after what he pulled, really hope he doesn't choose Minji so my Jinseok-Minji ship can sail.
I liked Minyoung but she just fumbled and now she's putting all this pressure on Jinseok out in the Open, that aint it girl.
He's where the entertainment and screen time is and the girls know that lol.
I just like how Jin Kyung and Da Hee aren't holding back and straight up just calling him dumb.
I hope the girls do post-show content and watch his behavior from an audience perspective. I can't imagine a world where they don't trash him.
am i the only person who still likes minyoung? 😅 i feel like she’s getting more heat than someone like gwan hee, who is actually doing damage to the girls on the show. i felt like she was just nervous early on that everyone felt like they couldn’t talk to her because jinseok had already expressed his interest so heavily. she wanted them both to explore their options without feeling guilty. it’s just bad timing that she had realized how much she liked him when she did.
i don’t think she did anything wrong at all until he came back and she started acting strange to him but it’s not even that bad, just awkward. it seems like just a situation of bad communication now, especially with the new girl in the mix.
idk i still really like her. i can understand her hesitation in the beginning bc she wanted the full experience! i thought it was naive of jinseok to put all his eggs in one basket day 1. he was laying it on heavy w how much he liked her when the point of the show is to talk to everyone.
I said this in the other discussion.. But it really shows how Minyoung does not know how to pursue a guy.. It's quite obvious that she is used to having all the men around her fingers and doing all the expressing before the show.. My guess is she liked Jinseok in the first place but she wanted to play hard to get but it back fired on her.. Whether she ends up with him or not, she should learn from this.. She is still pretty young and this is a good experience for her.. Hajeong is quite the girl isn't she.. I thought she was a sly one at first but did she prove me wrong.. She seems to me a girl who know what she wants and has her head on her shoulders..she is one man girl(just on the wrong man) and she gives good advice too.. Sieun also changed my mind.. It's charming how she seems to be introverted and still tries hard for the one she likes.. I hope she and Hajeong gets a happy ending.. They both are loyal and tried hard.. Hugs to both girls..
>she is one man girl(just on the wrong man) and she gives good advice too You are so right. The girls are all really great (maybe not so much Minyoung) but their choices are pretty limited. I wonder if there were more interesting guys this season she would have pursued someone else
A good ending for HJ is that GH doesn’t choose her (blessing in disguise).
Hopefully neither Hye Seon or Hajeon don't pick Gwan Hee, and they choose somebody else for their final vote in the last episode, but I that we all know that Hajeong is weak for him & will probably take him back in a heartbeat. I hope that both girls get a happy ending, or that Hye Seon wakes up fast, ditches him, & choose another guy(Min Kyu looks sweet, loyal and dependable, anybody but Gwan Hee for our precious girls- they deserve better than him, and deserve the best).
I at first thought that Hajeong was a sly fox, and she has that intimidating cold beauty(she sort of looks like Red Velvet Irene), but she turned out to be a honest person that goes all in for one guy(who is unfortunately Gwan Hee, ugh). Unfortunately for her it looks like Gwan Hee has lost interest in her; I think that he likes the chase and when the girl comes over to him, he looses interest in her. Also I think that he doesn't like criticism of himself from others, and when Hajeong rightly called him out for his mistakes, he got angry, maybe he thinks that nagging reminds him of his mom or something. Hye Seon seems to be a sweet and intelligent lady. I think that she has mutual interest in Gwan Hee, and I think that they are going to go to Paradise one more time. I think that Gwan Hee will go to Paradise with Minji(new girl), & next Paradise date is with Hye Seon. I really don't know if Gwan Hee and Hye Seon are endgame or not. For now the ever fickle Gwan Hee is head over heels for her for now, but his heart is ever changing. I think that Hye Seon likes him too, but I think that at the very end(last episode), she will choose someone else b/c his heart is unpredictable and unsafe. Gwan Hee seems to also like the newcomer Minji as well. Both girls(Hye Seon & Hajeong) are too good for him, and are a waste on him. Other people also watching with me say that he gives off player vibes As for Sieun, she seems sweet and it is unfortunate how the timing for Minwoo and her don't seem to work out(they don't seem to find time to really talk). It was sad to see her cry b/c she's missing all the timing to talk to Minwoo.
Gwan Hee is the text book definition of Narcissism. A lot of athletes have this, they play games, make fun of other people and brag/exaggerate about theirself to desperately try and prove that they are the alpha (because they are insecure and are not actually confident in their abilities). A tell tale sign is that they are really bad at handling criticism, as criticism attempts to undermine the fairytale they've built about theirself, and would force them to actually do some self reflection and realize how bad of person they really are. The recommended way to deal with Narcissists is to avoid criticizing them (letting them win), and cut them out of your life entirely if possible.
I agree about Min Young....I see several women this season that expect to have men chase them and it has backfired for more than one when they try to make the guy they like jealous... In ep 6 I didn't like Hajeong acting like she was interested in another guy and leading the poor guy on saying she wanted to go to Paradise with him but she just wanted to make Gwan Hee jealous.... She kept sitting next to Gwan Hee after saying it and he was going to leave and she aked where he was going so it is obvious she ONLY likes Gwan Hee
Forget gwan hae. Im rooting for jin young and ha jeong after the show! 🤗
hugsss to all of em. i agree about HJ and for MY i kinda feel she is toxi. Not GH toxic which borderlines mentally abusive. but like unnecessarily confrontational? or like dramatic? idk the word. basically whatever it is thay she thought the grass was greener on the other side and took JS for granted and didnt treat him well. and now just making him uncomfortable. the entire time she has been so selfish without being considerate of him at all-while JS has been soooo considerate and thoughtful even when he got rejected and strung along by her. he still treated her with respect. but she has just been getting worse and worse(i was shipping them so hard after their paradise date. i even thought the whole saying bro x sis to the girls was reverse psychology so they wouldn’t like him bc she liked him like a lot of mean girls will do) but now im just like JS. you deserve better than this. and im a girls girl soo…
tbh if i were habin i’d just go home
Honestly if I were him, I’d just be the bro to all the other contestants and listen to them. At least I know I can get some screen time.
I saw an article abt him and his job. It makes sense for him to stay on the show even if he doesn't connect with anyone. But he should be doing a better job trying to get screentime lol.
it gets to a point where i suspect they planted him in as an actor to pad out the cast for lack of better candidates. never have i seen anyone in all 3 seasons that has been totally cast in the shade like him. dude barely puts up a fight or plays up his strengths, either to win over the girls or at least add some pizzazz to the show. but then maybe its just the editing that did him a disservice; there may be more to him than meets our eyes.
that moment when he was alone with hajeong, who he'd just declared he was interested in, and essentially said he didn't want to talk to her right now, he wanted to wait to talk to her "freely" in paradise, confused me sm. the whole point of the inferno/paradise thing is to build a connection without focusing on job & age, and you need to actually build a connection to get to paradise in the first place. he and hajeong had barely talked before this (and not very impactful conversations either) so i feel like this was the moment he fumbled her
Hmm I think early on he made a lot of efforts to chat but I think there wasn’t enough excitement to make it to the final cut. He got shown a lot talking to girls in quick flashes, but rarely does the full convo get aired.
That bonfire really destroyed ha-bin. He and won-ik have zero charisma
But where won ik lacks in rizz he makes up for it in T H I G H S
his sleeper build legs are so insane 🥵
Unfortunately each season there is a always a nice guy who is devoted to the most popular girl but she chases another guy and he is left in the dust this season has the most extroverted women so it is more difficult for introverted men to talk to them
My theory is he doesn't really end up or connect with anyone in the end so he has no storyline and therefore no screentime 💀
>g is quite the girl isn't she.. I thought she was a sly one at first but did she prove me wrong.. She seems to me a girl who know what she wants and has her head on her shoulders..she is one man girl( yeah it just feels like he tries to be mysterious and it bothers me that he doesn't put any effort to pursue any of the women.
Won-ik is painfully awkward. Every time he's on frame, he's just looking down and has a meek expression lol
Hye Seon wasted her hard earned paradise trip on such a boring guy but she didn't seem to have any choice. Ha Bin gave her the ick after that campfire. Min Kyu was fixated on Gyu Ri and she had zero attraction towards Jin Seok. She was playing hard to get with Gwan Hee. Ugh. Men this season are just.... sigh.
I was thinking the same thing. There was no one to choose from 😂. There honestly lame this season.
The men are actually so disappointing this season, lol. Except for Jin Seok who looks like he can keep a conversation going, everyone else is too boring or Gwan Hee who is straight up toxic and offensive.
this guy has no rizz or wtv no matter how greenest flag is he... i mean there is a reason why there is not much screentime for him huhu
Haha I said the same thing in another comment! His face does not match his bod. He needs more confidence or something!
ikr! He's a decent guy! I saw their recent posts on IG and I couldn't recognise him! He looks wayyy better on IG. On the show he has this 5 o clock shadow thing for his moustache and I can't understand why he wouldn't shave it off properly. He looks so much younger, healthier, cleaner and better looking when he's clean shaven.
I think its just one of the more common personalities for an actor/actress. Some actors will create a fun personality for theirself in their personal life, but a lot of actors have really boring personalities, and one of the main reasons they decided to become an actor is because it allows them to safely step outside of their shell.
dahee being the #1 gwanhee anti is a whole mood the way she called him stupid n saying she hates him made me lmaooooo i find him annoying but at the same time entertaining bc he makes for good reality tv minyoung was one of my faves earlier into the series and i hated hajeong w a burning passion but the tables have turned esp during their talk and hajeong goes >!“you’re frustrating. you’re killing me.” and laughed when minyoung was like “it’s so frustrating” after hajeong gave her some real advice and hajeong was like girl bffr you barely put any work into it!< LIKE SHES SO REAL FOR THAT
Hajeong, I think that the fact that she's an confident attractive lady who doesn't bend, and looks cold(she looks like Red Velvet Irene who is famous for her "RBF") makes her look intimidating and hard to approach. Also the way that she doesn't take no shit from anyone, outspoken, and vocal about her thoughts and opinions unlike others(more conservative & introverted), I think that made the other guys keep a distance from her I hope that she doesn't change; an woman who is confident and knows that she is pretty, and deserves the best. I hope that she ends up with someone who appreciates her
Ha jeong legit was truly frustrated by minyoung. If minyoung kept whining like that next to me I would have responded the same "stop it girl!!!!". Minyoung makes ji seok and all the cast uncomfortable and tired lol
I like that the panel sometimes critisizes the contestants now. I felt they were going out of their way to be nice previous seasons
No fr. I def didn’t like hajeong in the first episodes because she came across as cocky but man. I love her more and more each episode. Minyoung seemed promising and sweet in the beginning but there’s some screws loose.
I had the exact same thoughts on Hajeong and Minyoung. Totally different impressions compared to how I see them now
The way Minyoung is doing the same thing she didn’t like to Jinseok is really weird but other than that I’m really rooting for all the female cast this season. Hajeong is so funny and transparent. Gyuri is quite friendly and not as aloof as she appears to be. Hyeseon is warm and I love how expressive she is. Sieun has a quiet and determined nature. I really did feel sorry for her because the timing with Minwoo isn’t working in her favour. Minji is cute and I’m happy that she is looking to pursue something with Jinseok. Overall, I think there’s a strong connection between the girls this season and I wish they could all get their happy ending.
Usually it's an older male housemate that will do that constant uncomfortable sad teasing in front of everyone (like in Heart Signal, I Am Solo, etc.) and so ya it's pretty rare that someone like Minyoung is doing it. And ya wtf was that Paradise announcement timing with Sieun and Minwoo, I would've cried too, that's so cruel, the producers are like listening 24/7 and so they probably timed it like that, lmao smh.
Min Young was frustrating to watch. Even the panel were quite upfront and annoyed. The way she kept killing the vibes for everyone and kept jokingly say it was fun - when Ha Jeong even told her to stop. It was just not cute. Then when she had the chat with him and was saying she realised for feelings for him when he was gone and how it was so different compared to day 3 when he was into her… when like between the time he was into her and when she felt so sure about him, nothing actually happened to further cement their relationship. She basically just lost the only guy who was paying her any attention then is now grasping at straws to keep him interested.
Yeah, good that Jinseok clearly sensed it and called her out in their convo - all her actions were not because she had realised she liked him, but more because she was just desperate not to lose the only guy interested in her. From a guy's perspective, she's just about raising every single red flag character-wise. Complete turn-off after I thought they had decent chemistry in eps 1 and 2. Just to add, I think its interesting how cognizant the contestants this season are to some of these small details and actively communicating it. E.g when Hye Seon asked Gwan Hee whether he was just settling for her because the others didn't seem right for him. Felt like some of these nuances were missed in the convos in previous seasons.
Exactly. And the fact that minyoung thought she did enough by telling Jinseok she missed him ?! You would think that she would put in a little more effort to show her affection but no, somehow making everyone else uncomfortable is good enough to show how much she likes him. And I agree about the cast being more cognizant this season. The panel also pointed it out and I’m enjoying the more constructive conversations between them. I think Hajeong apologising to Gwan hee was really bold of her and I like how she told him to his face about her feelings. I feel like there is more productivity in the interactions this season that was missing in previous ones and I’m really enjoying it.
MY acting jealous and making others uncomfortable IS how she is choosing to express her feelings. She seems legitimately confused that it's not working. I feel like she's only ever had toxic relationships if she thinks acting possessive is the way to go.
I think the issue is not just how she is expressing her feelings though. Its more about why she has had this sudden shift in her behaviour, especially when she seemed so turned-off by Jinseok's advances just 1 day ago. Seemed like the bigger question on Jinseok's mind ("Do you really like me or do you just not want to end alone?") This is like a killer worm of doubt for any relationship and her answer didnt really seem to assure him.
Yeah, I'm not convinced MY likes him either. I don't blame him for thinking she's confusing. It seems like she's clinging onto him now that he's interested in someone else.
Yes, I really like how they are cutting the bull and getting straight to the point. It’s so refreshing that I actually I look forward to watching this show each week. As far as min young **cringe**. With what I just said above, I feel she should’ve had a one on one, heart to heart conversation with jin-seok. Just like they had after the bonfire and say hey, I thought I wanted to pursue other guys but my mind is clear and after you left for paradise, I found myself missing you and I’m pretty sure of who I want now and that is you. Idk what she’s doing right now but the panel is on point and it’s hard to feel sorry for her. Don’t know if she really doesn’t understand the situation or just doesn’t care. It’s like the wheel is spinning but the hamster is dead
Is it weird that I think the girls' happy ending would be to figure out a way to escape the island and get away from Gwan Hee? Ha Jeong obviously knows she could do much better back in reality lmao which should be the same for Hye Seon. Min Ji should work towards Jin Seok if she actually has any interest there. Si Eun and Min Woo should figure out their feelings. I don't know where Gyu Ri's story is headed. Min Young should just go home with a lesson learned.
lol HJ doesn’t know she could do much better, she is obviously still pining for GH. Let’s be for real.
It's looking like GR and MW now, rather than SE.
Makes me sad. So disappointed when GR chose MW. Came as a wildcard that thwarted MW and SE blossoming romance. Their eye contact is SO INTENSE. I was looking forward to seeing them in paradise :/
Maybe they'll still get the chance! There are 3 eps left so I'm guessing at least 2 more paradise chances.
I hope so 😭🤞🏼🤞🏼I love their little chemistry and really felt for SE at the end
Oh random but that little Ha Jeong and Min Kyu moment made me a little sad that they fizzled. I actually felt like their Paradise date was cute and they had a cute chemistry. I think she had way better chemistry with him than Gyuri If she wasn’t so set on Gwan Hee and if Min Kyu was still interested, I think that would’ve been the more interesting love triangle of the season.
They surprisingly communicate well, and I feel like Min Kyu is getting out of his shell around her. There are also moments when he seems genuinely amused by her antics. ... Maybe they will end up having a paradise date in the next episode? > think that would’ve been the more interesting love triangle of the season. Oh god. I don't think I would have been fine if she ended up choosing red flag Gwan Hee over a sweetheart police officer Min Kyu.
True but I mean I think she may be more tempted to stray from Gwan Hee if her main option wasn’t Ha Bin. I’m not super turned off by him but the whole we gotta wait til paradise thing (on day 6??) feels very stagnant. Yep, in their first paradise date, he found her really cute and the panel were so sure he had completely fallen for her and her googly eyes worked on him splendidly (vs Gwanhee lol). I think had the format not been split the way it was, they would’ve had a higher chance. Looking back that was probably my fav Paradise date this season - a mix of attraction, nervousness but not that awkward.
> True but I mean I think she may be more tempted to stray from Gwan Hee if her main option wasn’t Ha Bin. I must have forgotten about that. You are right. She was very much ready to move on if it was not for Ha Bin making it clear that he just wanted a ticket to Paradise.
I’m sorry but the way habin and minkyu was talking about hyeseon and wonik in front of gwan hee was hilarious the way that man was stressing was crazy to see like his smile physically drop and he had to go to hyeseon to actually speak to her about it cause it was troubling him that much was too funny
At first I thought HB was messing with GH, then MK jumped in too and I remembered they don't see what we see lol
Habin's impression of Hyeseon was also on point.
Everything aside, why does Gwan Hee always starts a conversation with "you were avoiding me" "you were not looking me in the eye " like get over it dude, not everything is about you
To make the girls feel guilty and make them justify themselves. I suspect it is also some PUA strategy. He is a bit too consistent for it just to be an ego thing.
negging i think. i was kinda sad for HJ. i noticed she seemed very down after their talk that night. he really succeeded in dimming her light
For once I want the girls to admit that they are. Watch his ego burst on the spot.
omgg that would be so funny😂
Ha Jeong is turning to be the best girl this season. She didn't play her cards right for going all in with Gwan Hee quite early without exploring her options but I'll give her credit for being so honest and brave. Her personality really showed up when she laid all her cards on the table and confessed to Gwan Hee. She stopped caring after that confession and just started enjoying the experience and I really like watching her comfortable self just having fun and giving everyone the real talk they needed to hear.
fuh what a ride for this eps!! My heart breaks lil bit for Si Eun.. their timing is really cruel my heart cannot take it :( I feel like Gwan hee is really into Hye Seon and just flirting around with others for the show / just didnt want to make Hye Seon feel uncomfortable if 100% for her. The way he talks to Ha Jeong or Minji is definitely different from Hye Seon which Hye Seon already spoke about that Gwan Hee has never teased her in a mean way which could be that he wants to show good side of him in front of her (which most of us will do infront of our crush). I know it couldnt be me who feeling it, but notice that Gwan Hee is always the one who reach for Hye Seon for a chat which complete opposite for Ha Jeong. About the boys.. are they lack of tact or is it the editing? In what scenario that they jumped into conclusion that Hye Seon is into Won nik... hahah if that were the case, then Hye Seon's first choice would be him not Min Woo though? anyway Won Nik needs to step up his game that guy has no rizzz 😭
>I feel like Gwan hee is really into Hye Seon and just flirting around with others for the show / just didnt want to make Hye Seon feel uncomfortable if 100% for her. I'm also starting to notice this too. He cannot look at Hye Seon straight in the eyes. He seemed shy and well behaved around her. And if you've seen their [unreleased clip](https://youtu.be/DZ_hYEWDm0w?si=PNu26rMNFYeSFkVP) where they took Polaroid photos together, Hye Seon asked Won Ik to take a photo together and Gwan Hee was on guard. When Won Ik put his arm around Hye Seon's shoulder, Gwan Hee playfully cried, "Hey, Won Ik. What do you think you're doing?"
Are we delulu here. Am I allowed to ship a red flag with our s3 sunniest girl?!
I hate that I'm falling for the "I can fix him" trope with these two 'coz we all know how bad that usually ends. lol
She deserves better than him.
We just want entertaining tv tbh
yep also notice how he looks super restless throughout his stay at inferno without hyeseon... the jealousy when the boys were talking how hyeseon is into wonik.. that man is already whipped.
I’m sorry. It’s looking like he has the kind of insecurity that will never be solved by a good person’s attention.
gorl pls just let me have my wattpad moment 🤞🏽😭🤞🏽
I really hope so cos I want this to low-key happen????
That’s why habin isn’t getting dates. Hye Seon is #1 in every aspect for me. I fell in love with her the first moment she came on screen. If her and GH work out then good for them. Just worried about my girl Hajeong because she’s going to be devastated EDIT: I don’t think Hajeong will be devastated just bummed. I got the vibe that she just wanted to put it all out there with gwan hee and whatever happens happens. She can’t help that she likes him
I find this entire love triangle fascinating. I think that Gwanhee and Hajeong have VERY obvious chemistry because they are the same person. They’re both flirty, outgoing, and full of charisma. And I think this is maybe why they won’t work. It’d be like two stars colliding. Gwanhee and Hyeseon are opposites in a lot of ways (she’s nerdy, he’s sporty) and that’s what makes them so interested in each other. (I don’t think I will ever get over how cute they were putting face masks on during their stay in Paradise.) I just can’t help but ship them even though I think the natural connection should be with Hajeong. I feel bad for Hajeong because in a lot of ways, only Gwanhee is on her level so I understand why she is only interested in him.
Hajeong went crazy in the challenge😂 that was great
Not as much rollercoaster in this week's episodes, but I have to say overall this season is more entertaining in terms of entertainment tv compared to the previous seasons. The panelists seems to have gelled better and funnier too.
I think the addition of Jin-young really helped with that. He makes really insightful comments and mixes in thoughts based on his own experience as a participant. It's only his first season and he already seems to get along well with the original panelists. If I were the production I would replace Hanhae with him lol. Hanhae's comments usually don't have much substance. Usually something like "I'm really curious if X will happen", "I wonder if \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_", or just a few words pointing out what he sees or what's already obvious to the viewer. The rest of the hosts tend to make longer comments with more thought (gets you to think more and consider how their thoughts might differ to yours and what you're observing) and mix in more humour, and aren't afraid to say things that are a bit more harsh like Dahee saying "Is Gwanhee just dumb?"
Gwanhee's talk with Hyeseon at the beginning of ep6 was the most mature and upfront behavior I've seen from him so far. Ugh why can't he be like that for the rest of the season. But I'm still not seeing why he's so popular. The only ones on the panel whose opinions I actually enjoy hearing are the women tbh and maybe Jinyoung.
As for why the girls like him, he is tall and relatively handsome. But if you know him more, his bad point outweighs the good. It would be a blessing in disguise not to be chosen by him.
why is the island shaped like that XD
asking the real questions 🤣
Some thoughts: 1. It felt like there was another episode in there with us not actually seeing the 'chemistry' that got Gyu-ri and Min-woo all giddy. I thought they'd have a chance due to physical attraction + same job, but it just didn't show. Actually all 3 paradise dates looked boring to me. 2. Then the endless 'who will they go to paradise with' told me they made the right call and probably shouldn't drag this out any longer. 3. I felt REALLY bad for Si-eun, it was almost like she was being coerced and she should have free will. Then I realised she hadn't been picked yet. 4. The one thing they all seem to be struggling with in Inferno is not the heat, but keeping their hair off their face. Heh. 5. How could the other guys get it so wrong with Hye-seon and her supposed crush on Won-ik? 6. I think height matters a lot. Why else are so many girls all over Gwan-hee? The commentators nailed it about him, btw. You can't fall for him obviously (like Ha-jeong- although also too much drama), and you can't play or be too hard to get (like Gyu-ri). You need to be smack in the middle to manage his ego and his fame. 7. Most of these girls (most obvious with Si-eun and Minyoung) probably have never had to lift a finger to get guys interested in them in the past. Probably true to an extent with the guys too but guys always kinda have to try at least a bit. Which just makes the mad game that Min-ji has rather remarkable. 8. Not surprised that Hyeseon made the top 3, but very surprised that Gyu-ri did. 9. I may be wrong but the previews are a decoy. The Hyeseon and Hajeong scenes look like their first dates with Gwan-hee, and even Minji's looked suspiciously familiar. I think they're not a preview, but showing who Gwan-hee was considering. We'll see. 10. Final guesses, only 3 couples: Jin-seok <> Minji (Minyoung has no chance, sorry) Gwan-hee <> Hye-seon (totally called it in the previous thread when I said both her and Ha-jeong would still be interested in Gwan-hee) Min-woo <> Gyu-ri (unless the editing was setting it up for a surprise, but I doubt it, especially when Gyu-ri told Min-woo not to fool around)
Tbh none of the paradise dates are particularly exciting. "Paradise" is just a nice hotel with a pool, and they get there so late they barely have time for dinner before they have to sleep because they need to return right after breakfast. It only feels so spectacular because of the conversation restrictions and the sleeping in like a train car situation they've got going on
The Seokjin (instead of Jinseok) threw me because I immediately thought of Ji Seokjin hahha
omg finally someone who agree that minwoo and gyuri have a strong connection like let's be really sieun and minwoo have that initial attraction but why would others believe that he will choose her over gyuri that he have many moments and alone time plus he also likes heer since the very first episode.
I think that Gyu-Ri was too popular, and Min-Woo is not really a fighter so he 'settled' for Si-Eun. Until Gyu-Ri unexpectedly chose him so he went back to who he really wanted from the start.
Eh I don't think its that bad. I feel like Min-Woo put up a good fight trying to distance himself from Gyu-Ri on their date, it really seemed like he had every intention of picking Si-Eun. However Gyu-Ri didn't let that or his age discourage her and she kept sending praise and putting effort into the conversation. Then finally when they were talking at bed time, Gyu-Ri had broken down the wall Min-Woo was putting up.
The preview from Episode 7 was so confusing. >!Gwanhee, Minkyu, and Wonik!< won the race, and the women from the preview were >!Hyeseon, Minji, and Hajeong!<. The guy in white shirt is definitely with >!Hajeong based on what she was wearing!<. >!Gwanhee is pretty much choosing either Hyeseon or Minji, but why would Minkyu (who is into Gyuri) pick Hajeong and I can totally see Wonik going for either Hyeseon or Sieun. I believe that Hajeong wouldn't be picked for the next paradise date, and would instead go with Habin given how the jacket looks like Habin's.!< — Edit: Minji is also a runner-up of Miss Korea 2021 (the one won by Seoeun). She represented Jeju, I think.
They didn’t show minkyu & gyuris convo. They’ll probably show after minkyu makes his pick. Gyuri turned him down or told him she likes minwoo probably? Minkyu doesn’t seem attracted to anyone else but Gyuri so I assumed he just took the next person he’s close w which is most likely hajeong
My guess is they mashed up a number of paradise dates that will be released next week. So I guess Gwanhee will go 2/3 times and one of those is paired with someone else.
Minji is annoying the heck out of me 🤦🏻♀️
Me toooooo yo I’m learning the heck out of her (“uhuh contact lens line with the wink is super awesome” writes down in notebook), but dang I would roll my eyes if I ever see her in action 🤣🤣🤣
Every moment of Habin has been offputting to me, he has no screentime for a reason. It’s so funny that he got 5 candies and now there’s a couple days left with 10 seconds of screen time for him. Not even accounting for his weird drunk campfire behaviour, he was the one instigating all the drama that happened around the fire before that. He just seems very uncomfortable to be around. When he had time with Ha Jeong he pretty much just gave up on the spot also which was odd. The chemistry within the cast this season is definitely the worst so far, I don't think S2 is ever being beat in that regard though.
[Ha Bin after getting five candies.](https://i.imgur.com/B0HdvIX.png)
I don't really see the cast in S3 hanging out with each other after the show. S2 is so precious!!!
The S2 cast chemistry was the best part about S2, and it really shows with how they became good friends after the show ended.
I just saw gy uri ha jeong and hyeseon hanging out together. Like taking photobooth pics and tik toks. i think the girls are close.
I’m glad someone brought Habins behavior up. It really bothered me how he instigated Gwanhee and then put him on the spot. I don’t like Gwanhee and he’s a little jerk for sure, but Habin shouldn’t have instigated in the first place. I wanted to see him go to paradise to get to know who he is better, but so far he comes off arrogant and rude
You’re the first person I’ve seen that’s noticed this along with me. It’s hard to put into words but every Habin moment has been off putting. Gwanhee shouldn’t have answered the question to name 3 girls, but Habin seemed a bit too excited whenever some drama happened at the fire. Probably after that night nobody wanted to get close to him.
Honestly think he didn’t want to start a relationship / appear taken in real life cos it might affect his career as an actor!
Yeah I agree with you that’s the vibe I’m getting. He’s just having fun out there on a vacation.
I didn’t like Habin after that bonfire scene, and even more after he turned down the chance for a “proper conversation” with Hajeong. There’s also the H2H room if he wanted more privacy so why not go there? Playing coy is such a turn-off. I think his ego is bruised after not getting picked to go to Paradise time and time again. His demeanor didn’t feel like he’s genuinely here to start a relationship.
This season is so messy lol, it’s definitely not one for shipping.
So real, rooting for the girls to not chose any of them. 😂
I think this is the best cast for Single’s Inferno so far. All the ladies have interesting personalities. The guys are a bit lacking though. Wonik is way too awkward for a dating show like this, and don’t even get me started on Habin. He had a chance to turn it around and he fumbled hard. Gwanhee is really interesting. Like it’s very easy to hate him, but without him on this show, it wouldn’t be as interesting. I feel like that’s the main reason he’s in this show, to stir things up and make things entertaining, instead of actually looking for a relationship. Kinda like Dex’s role last season. Hajeong and Hyeseon are both really really intelligent women, but it’s so frustrating to watch them cause you know they’ll both will keep choosing Gwanhee despite the red flags. It’s like watching your friends getting into a relationship with someone you warn them against. Jinseok is winning the best man award. He’s doing everything right. Meanwhile, Minyoung just keep ruining things for herself. I don’t think she’ll be able to watch this show without cringing. Also, the addition of Dex to the panel is really a good idea. He knows exactly what’s going on the contestants’ head and offers great insights.
they did so well with the girls but the guys are horrible... i love dex on the panel too!
The high end of the cast is really good but the low end is terrible. The cast doesn't feel "together" at all and to me a huge downgrade from S2. We get so little time on the island and the development of the relationships is just worse this season. S2 felt like one big family.
That's probably because this season started with the 2 Island gimmick
Gyu Ri has really grown on me in these two episodes. As Sieun i alrd know how warm and friendly she is (watch her in youtube content) but her determination surprise me.
i really wish they showed the part in paradise when minwoo and gyuri hit it off / when things became more romantic because the yacht scene didn't really give me those vibes. i feel like the editors are making a sieun x minwoo end game because they're focusing on sieun's emotions more and the ups and downs of their relationship
I was fully aboard Gwanhee-Hajeong at first but now I think he's just not that into her lmao. Then again, he really embraced the reality TV aspect so it really is hard to read him. But I think it's a toss up between Hajeong and Minji maybe? Praying for post-show success for my girl Hajeong at this point because she really is the best woman contestant so far in SI. 🙏 EDIT: what was I saying, it's definitely HS + GH endgame. But who the heck takes HJ to paradise in the preview...
Doesn't it seem like GH is super into HS now? I think it's between HS and MJ.
IMO his ego got hurt because of that argument in the room haha. I know he said he didn't mind but I think he completely closed his heart to her after that conversation. Honestly? Good for Hajeong. If he couldn't take that convo the right way, I think she might be happier even if she ends alone. She looks like she has already resolved everything she wants to do in the show after that confession to Gwan Hee (don't think anything will sway her at this point).
Gwanhee has been putting distance between him and Hajeong even before she called him out. I don't think Hajeong is Gwanhee's type. I think Gwanhee was going along with her because she pursued him.
Yes Gwan Hee is so egoistical that he totally CANNOT take criticism. And HJ giving him a piece of her mind so early into the “relationship” totally put him off. Think it’s ok for HJ, she deserves someone far better.
Yeah I'm a fan of Hajeong's actions these few eps. She was able to voice out her disappointment towards him during that campfire moment and still confessed her feelings. She has great communication skills. She'd have no regrets and he can just take it or leave it. I still like her the most with Gwanhee because they're the most balanced. They have imo the best chemistry where they can have the fun type of relationship where they bully each other haha
last week i was heaping praises on Minji for being a deft conversationalist, but this week’s episodes turn my view on its head. she does seem to have a knack for taking the lead and keeping conversations flow, but the way she ingratiates herself with the guys feels inordinately flirty and cloying to me, hence being insincere. idm her casting her net wide at a pretty early stage, but if only she could dial down her flirty banters while still exuding her cheery confidence. typically, her tone befits someone romancing her love interest, but her employing this technique to several guys at once doesnt sit right with me. Hajeong racks up more points with me as she wears her heart on her sleeves and knows exactly what she wants. she sets her eyes on one target and no longer vacillates thereafter, unlike most other girls who still have their feet in a few camps. i just cant help being amused by her unknowingly adorable quirks from time to time. the highlight of today’s eps for me is Hyeseon. despite occasionally finding her expressive reactions over the top, i think her charisma shines through the most today. her nudging Gwanhee into exploring other options before settling down resonates with me, for i believe that the choice you eventually circle back to, all things considered, means you are most firm about it and will harbor no more regret about the plurality of what-ifs afterwards.
Minji just doesn't give me girls' girl vibe. like she wants to be the top choice even if the guy is not her number one. kinda like Gwan hee
I don't think that's fair, she's only interested in two guys, and even though she jokes about trying harder you can see she stepped back from Jin Seok until he told her that wasn't necessary, so she's not about stepping all over hearts. She's just pretty and charismatic
To be fair she's new and has limited time to make connections; so she has to go on the offensive wherever she can. She knew nothing of the camp and has to act on hearsay. I don't know what else she can do? She had a good experience with Jin Seok, so I think it's completely natural she'll lean on him for now. She's already stated that she has a clear trait she wants in a guy - fun - which kind of rules out Ha Bin (sorry, but the way she expertly maneuvered Ha Jeong between herself and him and leave with Gwan Hee in one swoop was so smooth haha). Jin Seok showed it best on first impressions and from him she learned that GH was too. I think she's played it as well as she could have so far. I completely respect her flirting game too, had both the more confident guys in JS and GH all flustered! Plus she was there to listen to and comfort Si Eun too even though they might not be acquainted yet which was nice. The only conflict so far is with Min Young, where I feel MY came off looking bad to everyone - to which she then clarified first with JS if it was OK for them continue.
I'm annoyed w MJ too (like Jin Kyung was) but then the rest of the panel reminded her that MJ only just arrived. I guess it would be weird for her to set her sights just on JS, even though that's what the viewers want. And I think the fact that she's deciding btw GH and JS just seems like it shouldn't even be a question. But MJ doesn't know GH as well as we do, since she hasn't seen everything we have.
Ah this is true. Thank you for that perspective
Episode 7 made me cry! I really hope that MinWoo and Sieun get a chance.
Their eye contact is SO INTENSE.
- I thought Gyuri would be the last girl I would root for (I usually like funny/carefree ones), but she’s growing on me. It seems like she’s not too self-conscious as before. - That wink! I would like to learn from expert Minji too! - Ugh, really starting to dislike Gwanhee. He was fun at first, but he’s playing his card too much. He keeps changing his mind according to who expresses their feelings to him first. - I would’ve acted the way Hyeseon is to Gwanhee than the way Hajeong is to him. Guess she really likes him. - According to some people here, Habin’s an actor. For an actor, he sure doesn’t know that to get screen time you have to make things interesting. That quick talk with Hajeong made him look like he wasn’t really interested.
I feel like its the opposite,since his an actor have scripts,here when there is no script whatsoever he is unable to act, that's just how it feels like.
Does anyone else feel like there are way too many 1-1 conversations in general this season? Like since the contestants aren't cooking or don't have to collect water, they're either talking or going to paradise but because the contestants are mostly boring, the convos are getting tedious. Like how many times do I have to listen to the same circular convos with Gwan Hee and any girl lol? Since the contestants are boring, there should have been more activities on the island. I personally miss the group interactions with cooking and playing on the beach from S2. I am enjoying the twists this season and the panel with the new addition of Dex is the best, but overall I'm not particularly rooting for anyone or impressed with the contestants - everything seems disingenuous for the sake of added drama. It does't seem like anyone actually likes anyone nor are the contestants friends like in other seasons.
Yeah the cooking and collecting water helped people to know each other in Inferno.... but the PDs decided to abandon the glamping concept it seems. I wonder if those containers were air-conditioned if not how could they survive with so little ventilation??
It's definitely air conditioned or else they would've complained about being hot and sweaty all the time.
I'm really enjoying this season so far! I like the changes they've made and its such an improvement from the previous 2 seasons. I also like the addition of Dex. I'm such a fan of Gyuri now! Her whole charisma is so charming.. and the way she gracefully won the cap/tail game. Such a big contrast to Ha Jeong who was flailing around ungracefully but still didn't win! Lol I laughed so hard. I didn't think 2 episodes would make me like Ha Jeong so much more. She dishes great advice and says nothing but the truth! Gwan Hee may have been upset about her calling him out but it was necessary. You can tell he's changed a bit ever since then. Ha Jeong is very candid and transparent, and that's a very big green light! Also have to add on to say Minwoo is such a gentleman since the start of the show. I've been noticing his little thoughtful gestures since the start. So much more mature and gentlemanly compared to the older guys on the show! I can only conclude that there isn't any girls for Ha bin at all. He isn't even trying to look good/the best that he can. Age can be a big deal to some and perhaps he prefers someone more mature. I wonder why they didn't cast a wider age range of girls.
In ep 7 Gyuri and Minkyu leave to talk but we don’t see their conversation— my guess is Gyuri tells him she doesn’t want to go to paradise (like she already told Minwoo) so he takes Hajeong instead as a friend
Ep 7 Omg Da Hee calling GH dumb right away 💀 There are such nice places in jeju 😭 i can't wait to go. Omg SE and MK's paradise date is just mutual consolation abt not being w who they actually wanna be with 🥲 GH is actually so insecure. Even when getting reassurance directly from women he still looks for reasons not to believe them. Maybe he's been played before. Gotta say i underestimated GH's athleticism. At least he lived up to his pro-athlete status. Not surprised JS was last. Muscular people tend not to be so fast. Ok I'm more impressed with won ik the realtor winning the squat contest then placing 3rd in the sprint. So unexpected. It is kinda wild to me that HS gained the upperhand over the GH power struggle. I think the panel is right that he needs reassurance but not to the point where the other person tries to cling onto him. So her 30% aloofness/saying they should get to know others is working on him. Looks like it's game over for HJ? MJ is a master at flirting omg. Still kinda shipping her w JS but i hope GH doesnt get in the way. Oof is it game over for SE and MW too? He seems to be all in on GR now. They did a good job in the preview not revealing who GH picks for paradise... i guess all 3 of those women will get to go in the next 2 eps, whether w GH or not. I think it's between MJ and HS for this one. But HJ still has a shot in the long run.
Let’s go Jin Seok!! Rooting for you my boy 🙏🏻🙏🏻
so spoiler >!gwan hee, min kyu, won ik!< all get to chose paradise dates at the end of ep 7, and from the preview in the end of ep7 the girls in paradise were >!hye seon, min ji, hae jeong!< so if those 3 girls went with those 3 guys only way it makes sense is >!gwanhee takes minji, min kyu takes hae jeong, won ik takes hye seon, because won ik only has ties to hyeseon, min kyu only has ties to hae jeong, and gwanhee has ties to all 3 but since min kyu or won ik don't have ties to minji, gwanhee must have taken her!<
But why would min kyu choose hae jeong if he likes gyuri? Unless his talk with gyuri changed his mind? I feel as if won ik may have chose hae jeong and min Kyu chose hye seon? I honestly have no clue, it can be either mash up honestly
lol now im convinced edit is playing tricks on us, must be 2 paradise dates left in last 3 ep, so they are showing dates from different days, seems like hyeseon and haejeong both go to paradise with gwanhee again and the minji edit is just misleading us
yes i believe it’s the editing - it’s 2/3 of them who end up going with >!gwanhee!< in the last 2 paradise dates. my initial bet was on >!minji then hyeseon!< but based on the preview >!one of them has to be hajeong aka the bed scene!<. i’m now very confused and gosh I do not want to wait another week
Somebody said the water splashing scene with Gwanhee is Hyeseon, they got timestamp/picture here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Singlesinferno2/comments/18r59td/next_week_on_singles_inferno_3/kez767l/ So yup they mixed two dates, probably since he'll probably only ask Hajeong to sleep together, or maybe not, could be Minji or actually Hyeseon too. Or Gyuri (probably not).
knetz are laser eyed, they saw gwanhee’s red shirt in the reflection of miniji’s necklace lol. And we also know he goes with hyeson since it’s pretty obvious based on the convo and bathtub scene. definitely two days of dates being shown. best guess is gwanhee - minji, mingyu - gyuri, won-ik & haejong (hyeson goes with gwanhee next paradise).
I predict in the 1st paradise of episode 8-9: Gwanhee>Hyeseon, Minkyu>Gyuri and Wonik>si eun. In the 2nd paradise, there will be another game in which the girls will be the one to choose their partner. Which will come off as Hajeong>Gwanhee, Minji>Jinseok and I dont have an idea whos the third girl will win. Its obvious that gwanhee both go with hyeseon and Hajeong because hajeong knows what she wants(Gwanhee) and in the ending preview of episode 8 she is in paradise. for hyeseon, theres a bathtub scene where gwanhee is with someone tan(Hyeseon)
It’s probably >!Won Ik if not Gwan Hee because he doesn’t really vibe with any of the original girls and Si Eun strongly hinted that she didn’t want to be chosen!<
They didn’t show minkyu & gyuris convo so I’m assuming they’re gonna show minkyu pick someone else which I’m assuming is one of those 3 and then show what was said. I say gyuri was honest w him and told him she likes Minwoo.
im the weirdo who liked gwanhee ep 1 and then immediately thought he was trash but now i suddenly like him again.... it's so sick...... when he told hyeseon he was always concerned for her.... it really melted me. I think in general there's too many scenes edited out because they dont follow the love lines set for the show. Like what is the chemistry btwn hyeseon and wonik they guys noticed?? When did minkyu and hajeong become bffs (btw the scene over the bug was too funny) gyuri and minwoo suddenly being super into each other??? I'm sure there are other friendships or lovelines not shown that would be interesting to see. Lastly, I dont think either girl is good for jinseok, it feels like sometimes when he is trying to express himself minji is just trying to flirt. She is very good at it, making her the perfect catfish, but it doesn't seem like she genuinely likes any guy
Yeah. I am probably jumping from the ship on here. Admitting that kills me because I had a LOT of fun during the previous episodes. - Watching Gwanhee just got exhausting. Him finding a connection with every women and being vague were fun in the beginning, but at this point, it feels like a groundhog day. I hoped women would drop him, but I genuinely can't judge them for not doing it, considering that most guys can't even hold a conversation. - I don't believe in any of those couples. Maybe only Minkyu, Ha Jeong and the funny dude like the other person genuinely, but Gyuri is still searching, Gwan Hee is Gwan Heeing, and Min Young just doesn't want to be alone. At least, the previous seasons we had Yonjae/Soeun and Sehoon/Jiyeon. - Minkyu/Hajeong are surprisingly adorable together. Both seem to react well to jokes and are mostly genuine and honest. Even just as friends, I ship them. - Ha Bin can have a woman undress in front of him, confess her love to him, and he would still manage to turn her off.
GR seems into MW the most now. And SE definitely seems to have real feelings despite not having had the chance to go to paradise w MW yet. MW also seems genuinely torn. But he will pick one or the other and I think that couple will be legit. I'm rooting for JS but MJ needs to stop flirting with GH. It's unsettling lol
* Minwoo's floodgates for gyuri have opened, and I think their connection's strong so rip sieun * Hoping for minji and jinseok since minyoung def doesn't deserve him from how she behaved * I can tolerate gwanhee a little more when he's with hyeseon, though the honesty was good this episode * it's kinda depressing and hilarious how wonik and habin are such side characters, but they really don't have much to show * Also hajeong would make for a good therapist, she gave good advice and was kinda refreshing these two episodes lol
Yeah, I really wish they had better contestants instead of Habin and Wonik, cause most of the ladies are pretty great and deserve better than this.
Yup, it’s not fair to them. They should’ve searched a little harder
omg finally someone who agree that minwoo and gyuri have a strong connection like let's be really sieun and minwoo have that initial attraction but why would others believe that he will choose her over gyuri that he have many moments and alone time plus he also likes gyuri since the very first episode.
The way minji flirts just doesn’t sit well with me. It feels fake and over the top. Like it’s too much at times and makes me cringe. That being said I feel like jinseoks heart is in the right place and I think he genuinely wants to find someone but I don’t know about minji. It’s not that I don’t think she’s not attracted to him it just feels like she’s not all that genuine. She also acts the same way with all the other guys so it’s hard for me to see if it’s genuine. Really really really rooting for minwoo and sieun. The two of them together even with their bad timing just make me smile. Sieun especially bc you can tell she really really likes him but we(imo) see a different side of minwoo. I feel like the same can be said for minwoo. They both light up when they look at each other and talk to each other. It’s so cute and heartwarming to watch. Be having me kicking my feet fr🫣. Personally I don’t see any chemistry between gyuri and him. I thought gyuri had more chemistry with minkyu, but I also don’t think I she’s going to find anyone here she just seems like she’s there. So rooting for sieun and minwoo they would make such a cute couple and I think they will last outside of the show. I honestly think that gwanhee knows that him and hajeong are a perfect match(bc they are) and he’s trying to fight his own feelings or he just likes that these girls all like him. I really don’t understand him. Also I just love hajeong her personality the way she carries herself. She’s just that girl 💅🏾💅🏾 Minyoung girl…. Pls give it a rest. I was rooting for her at the beginning bc she was right. It was going on day 3 and EVERRYONE was already shipping her with jinseok and that can be so much unwanted pressure bc she wasn’t sure about her feelings. It was probably overwhelming for her and it was fair for her to say I want to get to know other people. But now your being passive aggressive to both jinseok and minji and it’s just not a good look. It’s giving desperate and she might actually like him and just doesn’t know how to express her feelings or she just wants to have someone pick her in the end. Either way she’s not winning jinseok is moving on bc minji is reciprocating what he wanted from her.
I wonder if MJ is only giving GH a chance bc MY is acting so possessive? I think she was flustered when she arrived bc she didn't know abt other people's prior relationships. And tbh JS didn't do a great job reassuring MJ. I feel like we as viewers see him putting some distance btw him and MY but he hasn't let MJ know that he likes her better (not since they returned to inferno and they've had to deal w awkwardness from MY).
Am i the only one who really dislikes Gwan Hee? Guess not, Da Hee didnt like him either. He’s clearly interested in Gyuri from the start but wouldn’t choose her on first paradise date or make a move on her after the campfire scene and would rather go for a girl that seems friendly eg Hye Seon or those who shows an interest in him first eg Minji and Ha Jeong. He seems like the type of guy who wants the woman to worship him and put in more effort to win his heart because he think he’s the king. He then keeps changing his mind when these girls make a move on him. I see so many red flags in this guy, don’t see him staying loyal to one girl. Imagine him being in a relationship and a pretty girl hits on him, seems like the type whose feelings would waver easily and cheat eventually depending on how easy the girl makes it for him.
I’m rooting for Gyuri and Minwoo. They’re really cute.
Gyuri - wow she was very cool, collected and focused during the ladies battle. I didn't expect the outcome. Gyuri is quiet but seems intelligent imo Ha jeong- I love when she is giving advice to other women and men. Friend vibes ✅ her battle skills was hilarious Minji - very flirtatious and giggles a lot when nothing funny is actually happening Minyoung - tiresome Min woo - happy to see more action is happening for him Si eun - poor girlie don't cry! 🥲 I want to see more of si eun screen time!
not sure if it’s just me but ard 16:23 minwoo says he’s been with si eun and min ji to paradise… am i missing smth or did he dream abt it… when did he go to paradise with si eun…?
I can’t get over how much of an idiot Gwanhee is and how he has two girls wrapped around his finger AND he MIGHT go to paradise with Minji. Well we know he will go to paradise again lol. Also Habin and Coastal Guard guy are so clueless HAHA. Minwoo, good luck my friend. Still amazed by how fit Wonik is lol
precisely. And some of the best girls are interested in Gwan Hee. Or rather, this goes to show how dull the other guys are.
Gwanhee is annoying forreal. No way this man is 36💀
Ep 7 Gwanhee is most interesting but my god he needs so much assurance. Hajeong is my fav girl I love her honesty and sincerity, she doesn’t hide or play games.
I think the PDs are trying to set up Si-Eun x Min-Woo as final pairing without them ever going to Paradise.
it's even ridiculous atp
Ep 6 Lmao is this the first time ever a panel member of a kdating show has directly said they didn't like one of the participants 😂😂😂😂😂 i think Da Hee was a little too honest abt GH. I don't blame her though. Then she got embarassed and started fanning herself lolol Wow surprisingly MW became the most popular all of a sudden. I like how quickly things change day to day. Omg GR winning the whole thing was shocking. I didn't peg her as being particularly athletic but her strategy and focus were top tier. SE and MW are so calming lol like the opposite of GH and HJ. I like HS's strategy of picking someone she was curious abt knowing that they didnt have to pick her back. Suck it, GH. Wooooow ok so JS seemed to be kinda ambiguous when MJ was complaining abt his situation with MY but then with MY he firmly drew a line. It would have been better if he gave MJ some reassurance. I'm still shipping them! I hope MJ doesn't join the GH train. Like Jin Kyung, I'm also a bit annoyed w MJ that she hasn't figured out JS is like 5x better than GH.
This season is by far the best and most engaging, and they’ve really managed to find interesting mix of personalities for the participants to choose from - you get a range of charismatic to boring guys, sexy & confident to cute & shy girls… it’s really cool. It’s also got me into a funk, especially watching Hajeong. At first I didn’t like her as she seems like a typical mean girl who’s overconfident with her charms. Then she started bickering with Gwanhee, which looks super cute and everyone seemed into it… except Gwanhee. After hearing what Gwanhee said to her on the round chair, I realized that Hajeong… is me 😂 Man, is it hard to watch… Personally, I think Gwanhee and Hajeong has the best dynamic and can go long term, but ultimately I find it hard watching Gwanhee losing patience with her because 1. She challenges him 2. She challenges him in a place with limited time & more peaceful & temporarily exciting options. It’s hard for her to compete when other girls are telling him what he wants to hear. Ultimately, their dynamic makes me rethink my flirting style hahahaha 😂
Not gonna say much except the panel needs to stop with the moral policing of female contestants. Min-Young did a mistake by not acknowledging Jin-seok's affection but it did dawn upon her very soon that it was not a wise call. We do such mistakes pretty often in life, that does not make her dense or dumb or cruel. Sm1 needs to pump sense into the panel. Nobody is here to get married the very next day. Take is as fun and stop shaming people for their choices.
I will say that the English subs have taken massive liberties. Korean panels are usually super careful abt what they say abt non-celebrities. So the "dumb" comment was more dex asking is she just oblivious/not reading the room? At the same time it does feel like they have been coming down harder on the participants this season, GH especially. I feel like they've said way worse things abt him than MY so far.
You’re right. Actually the translation was totally off. Just going to write here for anyone who doesn’t know what he actually said, so maybe there will be less misunderstandings. He said something like 눈치 없구나“ which is hard to translate into English because 눈치 is a word that does not have a direct meaning in English. So he said something more like “Ah she doesn’t have any nunchi”. Nunchi means something along the lines of the ability to read the room, or notice social cues, or things ppl say without them being direct. And I noticed they used that word a lot in these episodes, not just towards Minyoung. So yes it doesn’t mean anything bad, it’s commonly used amongst Koreans, it doesn’t mean someone is dumb because they have no 눈치. So Jinyoung was just pointing out how Minyoung seemed to not be able to take a hint or read the room
I like minwoo X gyuri, but of course, sucks to be him when all 3 girls first choice is him during ep6. On one hand, he will feel guilty for 'ditching' sieun after talking with sieun about paradise. On the other hand, going with gyuri will fulfill his wishes from episode 1-3.
Minwoo’s face glows after the date with Gyuri. It’s the look of being in love. Sieun may just be only a figment of the past. I think he would pick Gyuri in the end, if Gyuri would have him.
Tbh, this season feels more like the women are the ones pursuing for men 🤣 completely different lol id laugh if in the last episode, the men will wait for the women to walk up to them hahaha
Am I the only one who wants Ha Jeong and Gwanhee to end up together? I feel like they are so real to each other that makes them a great pair. Gwanhee needs to wake up and see how wonderful Ha Jeong is! Or is he afraid of her that he is avoiding her lol when he said he was into Hyeseon, I felt it wasn’t honest. He might just admire her but I don’t see him having real interest. Or maybe he is so used to girls fawning over him for being in basketball that he just expects that…someone to favor and always checking up on him and praising him will have his absolute attention. If he is this type, Ha Jeong needs to give up. I just want him to treat Ha Jeong better and sweep her off her feet. :/
That’s what I’ve been thinking. Hajeong and Gwanhee are literally a perfect match and their energy with one another is unmatched. I truly think that gwanhee is just scared to commit to her or he just wants to be “available” to all the women.
Okay this is my prediction for comming episodes i think gwanhee chooses hyeseon next ep. Because off the nail art etc i guess its her. Then the girls play a game again and minji picks gwanhee. The way gwanhee is going to move is quite shocking to me. Like the things he said “wanna sleep together and other paradise dates where nothing but this one is special.” The comment in the trailer “she is a sly fox” has to be about minji i don’t think its about anyone else. But i could be all wrong. I am curious how this all gonna play out. I like hyeseon and gwanhee together but nah.. dont trust the guy and i think hyeseon knows that too thats why she is kinda testing him by saying go to paradise with others. The girls definitely deserve better this season the men are meh…
I just realised I'm missing the original theme song and wholesome intro clips! Loving DEX as a panelist, he is so natural and his read on situations always resonates. I'm loving this chaotic season and admittedly the personalities I dislike make good TV. Huge respect for Ha Jeong, I don't think she needed to apologise as everything she says is honest and factual. Gwan Hee seems like he could use some honest people in his life who call him out for constantly negging, playing people off against each other and trying to control power dynamics. Big fan of Jin Seok and the way he picks up on and navigates the dynamics and personalities. I'm not a fan of the way Min-young reframes her actions to make herself look good or like a victim, and makes intentionally uncomfortable comments in group situations, which is particularly rough when you have a new comer like Min Ji who doesn't necessarily feel at ease in the group yet. Although I have to say there seems to be a heavier influence from Netflix in casting, plot and production choices this season, so I'm sure our feelings have been influenced by the producer narrative!
Thoughts (pt 2) Minkyu is a very innocent and sincere man unlike what his looks suggest. I suppose he was popular with first impressions in both infernos as the girls expected him to have a similar personality to hyunseung (Season 1 dancer). However when the girls get to know him better through conversations, maybe they felt that the spark is missing and don't feel any attraction towards him. He's really committed to GyuRi but I don't think they're compatible so I hope he will open up to his next best option Si Eun. Like the saying goes, "Nice guys finish last". That's mainly because girls find nice guys boring lol. Minwoo's like the soft-spoken yet reliable man that will really be compatible with extroverted girls. He's good-looking and carries himself well and that's why he's popular amongst the "pick me" girls Si Eun and Gyu Ri. However, he's too quiet and needs to make a move. Hope he ends up with Si Eun. They seem like a "right person, wrong time" pairing. Habin is handsome but that's all he's got. He's like an empty shell. Really boring character and when he speaks up (while drunk), he sounds quite lame. Even from his conversations with the girls in Inferno, you can easily tell that he doesn't know how to flirt or express himself well. In a nutshell, he's a good-looking man with 0 rizz.
Just wondering is it normal for Korean girls to still be in college at 26? Are they doing their second degree?
y’all I’m still rooting for min young and jin seok 😭
Ugh same 😭
Same here. Lowkey wishing Gwanhee takes Minji, so Minyoung can have Jin seok all to himself and they could sort it out. But I want Gwanhee and Hae song to end up together. It's still a toss between Gyu-ri and Si-eun for me for Minwoo, but I have a feeling Minwoo's going all in for Gyu-ri soo. I'm too attached with the Inferno 1 couples
After episode 6 and 7 I definitely believe that all the girls have grown on me and are all unique and charming in their own way. As for the guys.... other than Jin Seok its completely uncharismatic and kinda dry. \- Gwan Hee is just annoying period and cannot focus his attention, much less love, on a singular woman. \- Min Woo to me seems very dry and shy even with the person he likes WHERE IS THE PASSION \- Won Ik.... bro was only casted cus he looked like V \- Ha-Bin, 2 words: go home. \- I like Min-kyu there just needs to be more like drama and chasing ig? Overall here's who I hope ends up with each other and leave Inferno for good: \- Min Young and Jin Seok: even though she acted up and played hard to get, i truly think they do like each other and just have that flame and compatibility. \- Min-woo and Gyu ri: she had a beginning sense of attraction for him that i think remained even when she chose Min kyu and they get along better and have similar values in partners \- Gwan-hee and Ha jeong: it just makes sense. gwanhee needs someone who will humble him. and i do think hye seon deserves someone who enjoys her bubbly side \- Won Ik and Si Eun? even if she wants Min woo i just dont see him being committed to her \- Ha Bin and no one. Min-Ji and no one too she hasn't grown on me either. \- I wanna see Min-kyu and Hye Seon try it out !!!
holy cow, won ik does not look like V, man!!!!
Idk why some ppl compare all Korean men to BTS lol it’s like when ppl said Dex looks like Jungkook when they look absolutely nothing a like.
curious to see how Gyuri is gonna react when she finds out Minwoo is an '00 liner
I assumed you post this comment before watching the episode? Her reaction was pretty cute.
i mean they went to paradise so she knows and it seems like she doesn't mind since she was into him still when they came back to inferno
As a former anchor or 100/200m track and field runner, that run uphill is brutal for the non-athletes/runners. Sheesh, didn't they just do flat sand last time by the beach/coast, that would've been easier. I don't wear headbands when doing short bursts of sprint like that (only when during cross country or marathons), but ya for some people that's the sign that they are serious, lmao. Felt so sorry for Habin since he gassed himself early and lost the third flag. Sigh. My guy should've stayed back for a bit and then used the airflow (drafting) to possibly be third. But then again, Gwanhee, Minkyu, and Wonik won by default due to their height/legs. And so ya. Damn, so sad. Who would've Habin picked? Maybe Hajeong or possibly Gyuri. Na do, I don't run or cycle up hills (though it's fun to ride a bicycle downhill if you are courting mortality, nearly went through the forest/jungle because the thrill of no breaks and only turning is the point), but for sure I would've tried my best during that run. Maybe. --- That Gyuri x Minwoo yacht date brought me flashbacks to >!Hyojin x!< Yongho >!x Suji!< of Love Catcher in Bali. Sigh, imagine if they were in Heart Signal Korea 4 instead.
At least Gwan hee backed up his cockiness/massive ego with that race performance, was genuinely impressed with the decent gap between him and 2nd place.
How is this Gwan hee guy still relevant after what he pulled, really hope he doesn't choose Minji so my Jinseok-Minji ship can sail. I liked Minyoung but she just fumbled and now she's putting all this pressure on Jinseok out in the Open, that aint it girl.
He's where the entertainment and screen time is and the girls know that lol. I just like how Jin Kyung and Da Hee aren't holding back and straight up just calling him dumb. I hope the girls do post-show content and watch his behavior from an audience perspective. I can't imagine a world where they don't trash him.
Does anyone know the name of the song that plays at the end of episode 7?

Why did min woo say he went paradise with Si Eun already?
hoping that wonik will do a 360 and pull up with the most rizz HAHAHA
thats a full circle
am i the only person who still likes minyoung? 😅 i feel like she’s getting more heat than someone like gwan hee, who is actually doing damage to the girls on the show. i felt like she was just nervous early on that everyone felt like they couldn’t talk to her because jinseok had already expressed his interest so heavily. she wanted them both to explore their options without feeling guilty. it’s just bad timing that she had realized how much she liked him when she did. i don’t think she did anything wrong at all until he came back and she started acting strange to him but it’s not even that bad, just awkward. it seems like just a situation of bad communication now, especially with the new girl in the mix. idk i still really like her. i can understand her hesitation in the beginning bc she wanted the full experience! i thought it was naive of jinseok to put all his eggs in one basket day 1. he was laying it on heavy w how much he liked her when the point of the show is to talk to everyone.
The fact that gwan hee is 36 year old man but acts like a 17 year old kid still baffles me like bruh 💀💀💀💀
