Netflix’s steamy Korean dating sensation Single’s Inferno has returned with a bang, as its fourth season storms into the global Top 10 with record-breaking viewership. The show’s bold new singles have certainly captured viewers’ attention worldwide.
The dating reality series, where contestants must couple up to escape to “Paradise,” has garnered an impressive 4.8 million views and 23.1 million viewing hours between January 13th-19th, marking the highest first-week performance in the franchise’s history. The show has secured the No. 6 spot on Netflix’s Top 10 TV (Non-English) list and has charted in 23 countries, including South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, Canada, and Brazil.
The show’s explosive popularity has dominated online discourse. Social media platforms have been flooded with enthusiastic responses, with viewers noting: “I never watch dating shows, but this got me hooked for the first time,” “Getting such a dopamine rush watching the show,” “Episode 4 was the turning point,” “This season has the best games yet, it’s so entertaining,” and “They’ve taken all the feedback from previous seasons and created a truly solid dating show.”
The production team, led by directors Kim Jae Won, Kim Jung Hyun, and Park Su Ji, has masterfully captured the contestants’ raw emotions and chemistry. “We strived to create an environment where participants could fully immerse themselves in the emotion of ‘love’ while isolated from their daily lives. We wanted to give viewers unpredictable entertainment with fresh tension,” the production team explained.
Episodes 7-8 of Single’s Inferno 4 are scheduled to premiere globally on Netflix on the 28th.
