Single's Inferno (2021) s01e01 Episode Script
Episode 1
Here are two islands.
On these islands, you focus
only on each other's charms
under limited conditions
without knowing
each other's professions or ages.
This is Inferno.
If you manage to escape from Inferno,
you can go to Paradise.
On Paradise, you can have
fantastic dates under the best conditions
and reveal your professions and ages.
Now, attractive single men and women
have arrived at Inferno.
This place is a jungle.
This is like a survival game.
My heart's racing.
I'm not sure if I can fall in love here.
I don't know anything about her.
I want to know everything about you.
Just sleep here.
I can't say, "Don't go."
You're sly.
Time went by so slowly on Inferno.
-Hold my hand.
-Let's go together.
-What was your first impression of me?
-Sexy.
Are you trying to get to know me
or are you pitying me?
Are you feeling bad for me?
I think you're a bit selfish.
Was it intentional?
This place really feels like hell.
Isolated on a deserted island
in the hot summer.
Will they manage to find love
in the midst of an emotional storm?
This is the hottest inferno in the world.
Single's Inferno.
Oh, my goodness.
-It's so exciting.
-I can already feel it's going to be wild
-That was intense.
-from the opening.
The hottest inferno in the world.
Single's Inferno.
Single's Inferno is finally released
as a Netflix series.
We just took a quick peek,
but it seems to be the hottest dating show
we've ever seen in Korea.
-How was the opening?
Right.
It made me feel small.
Right.
And it doesn't feel
like a Korean dating show.
-That's right.
-It's more like a Michigan one.
-Didn't it have a Michigan vibe?
-It does seem foreign.
-It feels like a foreign show.
-It does.
I wonder what's going
to happen on that island.
Right.
-I heard from the film crew
-Yes?
that being stuck on a deserted island
made the participants
very emotional at the end.
I don't know how they managed
to release their emotions though.
If there's nothing much to do
but date on a deserted island,
I'd be very emotional too.
Because there's no way to let off steam.
Right. They don't have friends there.
-Exactly.
-They're all enemies.
INFERNO
What's all this?
Hello, my name is Kim Hyeon-joong.
I decided to come on this show
because I'm curious to see
if I could really find the one for me.
A lot of girls flirt with me.
I can see why.
My charms are this dimple
that shows when I smile,
a fit body,
and a really cute butt.
I try to work out
at least two hours a day.
I like to work out,
so I like women who put efforts
into working out.
His face looks so meek,
but his body looks so aggressive.
He's so charming.
-It's an unexpected charm.
-I had no idea he'd be so fit.
INFERNO
My name is Moon Se-hoon.
I think I'm unpopular
because people think I'm popular.
Really.
I'm very good at household chores.
I think many girls
found that very charming.
I love working out.
I run every day, and I love sweating.
I think I ran
around Seokchon Lake almost every day.
I never give up.
When I find someone I like,
I have to date her.
That's the kind of person I am.
Looks like he's someone
who never gives up.
He's a go-getter.
Hello.
Hello.
-It's nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
Someone's coming.
It's a woman.
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
You can sit wherever you want.
It's hot, isn't it?
It's really hot.
I'll sit here.
My name is Shin Ji-yeon.
When it comes to dating,
I know what I want.
I easily turn down those
who aren't my type.
When someone is my type?
I guess I'd try
to be more straightforward.
When I like someone,
I try to respond enthusiastically.
Personality matters a lot to me.
I like people who can influence me
in positive ways.
I think what makes me a charming person
are my positive vibes, empathy,
and my hands.
-Yes.
-My name is Shin Ji-yeon.
-Ji-yeon? I see.
-Yes, Ji-yeon.
Do you need a cushion?
Oh, thank you.
-Se-hoon, was it?
-Yes, Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon.
-Yes.
-Moon Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon. Okay.
Se-hoon seems to like her a lot.
It looks so obvious.
Someone's coming.
You're right.
Look at the long strides.
Hello, my name is Kim Jun-sik.
I like cat-face types.
I'm attracted to them.
I like cooking.
I often spend time
with my friends and acquaintances
eating food that I prepare.
This is an inferno for singles.
I'll do my best to make it to paradise.
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
-You can sit wherever you like.
-Sit wherever.
Now, where they sit
is going to be important too.
-You can sit wherever you like.
-Sit wherever.
I'll sit here.
She's wearing black.
She looks really tall.
I can feel her charisma
even from a distance.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
It's hot, isn't it?
Hello, I'm Kang So-yeon.
I'm straightforward and I don't lie.
I think I'm an easygoing person.
I'll be honest. I'm quite popular.
Yes.
She's confident.
I like boxing, swimming, playing golf,
tennis, basketball, running,
jujitsu, judo, weightlifting,
yoga, and pilates.
I can confidently do most sports.
What men find charming about me?
One can be sexy in so many ways.
I'd like to show different sides of myself
one by one, slowly.
-She looks so healthy.
-Right. With her sun-kissed skin and all.
I think many guys will like her.
Right.
I can't believe
we're actually on a deserted island.
Is he an idol singer?
He has really fair skin.
My name is Choi Si-hun.
Some people have
pure, innocent, and untainted eyes.
I like women who have those eyes.
I like going to the gym and boxing.
Going to the gym and boxing.
They're my hobbies.
I believe in destiny.
I'd be really happy to find my destiny
on Single's Inferno.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Nice to meet you.
-You can sit wherever you like to sit.
-I'll sit here then.
-Here?
-In the center, yes.
Nice to meet you.
Gosh, he squeezed in between the two.
Nice to meet you.
You look like an idol singer.
Someone's coming.
There she is.
My name is An Yea-won.
My charms?
I'm clumsy and playful in a cute way.
And I have a great body.
In summer, I go to beaches to get a tan.
And while I'm at the beach,
I do some jogging.
-People these days
-seem to work out a lot.
-They work out a lot.
I like people who have nice teeth.
I have really nice teeth. Don't you think?
Gosh, it's hot.
-It must've been tough.
-Thank you.
Oh, my gosh.
-Hello.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
You can sit wherever you want.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-They can't take their eyes off her.
-Their eyes are fixed on her.
My name is Song Ji-a.
Let me describe myself in two words.
Cute and sexy.
I don't play games when I date someone.
I don't want to have any regrets
when I love someone.
I'll be honest.
Physical attraction is what I see first.
Because that's the first thing you see
when you meet a person.
I like tall guys.
I'd like to be held in a tall guy's arms
because I'm rather small.
Personality is important too.
And how much money he has.
Wait. Am I being picky now?
Oh, no.
If there's something I want to do,
I have to do it.
If there's something I want,
I have to have it.
No other girls can beat me.
I'm that confident.
It's not too hot, is it?
It's so hot.
-There aren't many clouds.
-It's crazy.
It's going to get hotter.
-Over there.
Someone's coming. Oh, my.
Isn't that Men in Black?
-Look at him.
-He doesn't seem to be Korean.
-His walk has a Korean American vibe.
-Right.
My name is Oh Jin-taek.
I really want a flaming romance.
That's why I applied for this.
He's cool.
He's really handsome.
He looks a bit like Lee Jin-wook.
I like sexy women with hot bodies.
so I want to be with a sexy woman.
I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
As you probably know,
facial hair grows at different speeds.
But I try to keep them at the same length.
When it comes to asking someone out,
I have never failed.
Is he an actor? Is he a celebrity?
-I wonder what his profession is.
-Me too.
He could be a model too.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
-Nice to meet you. Hello.
-Hello.
-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
My name is Oh Jin-taek.
-He's telling us his name already.
-Right.
KIM HYEON-JOONG
MOON SE-HOON
SHIN JI-YEON
KIM JUN-SIK
KANG SO-YEON
CHOI SI-HUN
AN YEA-WON
SONG JI-A
OH JIN-TAEK
All nine participants
have gathered together.
Honestly, just watching them
makes me feel good.
They're all so gorgeous and good-looking.
-They feast my eyes.
-Right.
-They're all charming in their own ways.
-RIght?
It'll be all about their personal tastes.
By the way, the last participant
gave a very strong first impression.
Oh Jin-taek, you mean.
If I walked past him on the street,
I'd turn around to check him out.
And there aren't
many hairy participants on dating shows.
He had charisma.
Personally, I liked Hyeon-joong.
The first person.
-I see.
-I also think that out of the guys,
-Hyeon-joong is the most attractive.
-I agree.
-Really?
-He has such a pretty face
and an unexpectedly fit body.
-He looks very attractive when he smiles.
-His dimples.
Right. Some people have dimples
when they smile,
and I find that attractive.
I have a feeling
that many male participants
will go after Ji-a.
-She looks cold on the outside,
-Right.
but I feel like she'll be friendly
once you get to know her.
As a woman, I personally find
So-yeon attractive.
-Right, So-yeon.
-She's very attractive.
I feel like she's the kind of type
who can look really charming in the wild.
But I think men would be more attracted
to someone like Ji-yeon,
-the first female participant.
-Ji-yeon.
-Right.
-She has pale skin
-and she's skinny.
-Really pale.
Right.
I think many men would like
someone like her.
Can I take back what I said?
Sure.
I think it's Ji-yeon.
All the male participants
are sitting around Ji-yeon.
-Is that so?
-Oh, really?
-Maybe she's just sitting in the center.
-Right.
They said, "Is it too hot? Can you
stand the heat until everyone comes out?"
It's really hot.
Hello, singles.
Welcome to the hottest inferno
in the world,
Single's Inferno.
I'm the Master of Single's Inferno,
and I'll be helping you find love.
You will spend
the next nine days here on Inferno.
RULES DURING THE 9 DAYS ON INFERNO
Inferno is isolated from the world.
You will not be able to use your devices.
For food, you must cook for yourselves
with the ingredients provided.
Also, you cannot reveal
your professions and ages.
Use only your natural charms
and actively win over each others' hearts
to become a couple.
Those who become a couple can escape
from Inferno and go to Paradise together.
COUPLES GO TO PARADISE TOGETHER
A DATE IN A LUXURIOUS HOTEL SUITE
whatever you want.
Couples must come back to Inferno
after one day in Paradise.
COUPLES MUST RETURN
TO INFERNO THE NEXT DAY
Couple matching sessions
for Paradise will begin tomorrow.
I hope you can all become couples
and escape from Inferno.
-Escape?
-Escape.
The map of the island is on the table.
I want you to now split
into three teams of three
and start discovering the island.
So we group up in threes.
They want us to explore the place.
OH JIN-TAEK, KANG SO-YEON, KIM HYEON-JOONG
-I guess that's where we vote.
-That's the voting place.
Why is there a snowflake?
Maybe it means it's cold.
The cafeteria.
Are we supposed to cook here?
-There's even a cauldron.
-A cauldron?
But this is a deserted island.
-We have all the ingredients here.
-This is so cool.
But there's no food.
Yes, there is. Here's some food.
Right. I see cabbages.
There's no protein.
There's no fridge here.
Food is the hardest part.
It almost feels like a survival game.
-Oh, there's water.
-That's water.
Wait. Is that it?
Maybe we should fill these ourselves.
Maybe we should draw water.
Isn't this a water bucket?
Hang on.
-I don't have a good feeling about this.
The conditions were poorer
than I imagined.
We had to keep drawing water
to stay hydrated.
We were really thirsty.
-I'm thirsty. What about you?
-I'm really thirsty.
-Do you want to go see where the water is?
-Yes.
Is it over there?
How long do we have to walk?
Looks like the water source
is really far from here.
I think this place is teaching me
I should appreciate water.
We have to come all the way here?
Every time? Seriously?
-Seriously?
-We have to come all the way here?
Oh, this is water.
That's water.
It's water.
We have to come here for water.
We have to be self-sufficient here.
Well, it's summer.
It's so hot and sunny here.
I'm not sure if I can fall in love
while surviving here for nine days.
It's so far away.
What could possibly be there?
-It's a snowflake.
-There's a snowflake on the map.
Snowflake?
What's this?
Because it takes time to get here.
-Oh, it's iced water.
-Iced water.
-Do you want some?
-What? Yes, I'd love some.
Looks like this is where we can get ice.
There's ice inside.
-I wish there weren't any bugs here.
-Bugs are what worries me the most here.
-Weren't there restrooms
-over here?
-Right.
-There are holes on the floor.
-Right.
-It's here.
-I see.
You can see everything inside.
How am I supposed to use this restroom?
There were way more bugs than I thought.
The condition of the showers
and the restrooms was so poor.
And there wasn't much food either.
I was taken aback.
INFERNO
-Oh, boy.
-Hello.
Hi.
How was it?
Looks like we're getting only
one bucket of water a day. Am I right?
-I think so.
-Are we?
This will make us eager to go to Paradise.
Right.
I hope there are no bugs at night.
Seriously.
The restroom is the worst.
-I don't think I can use it.
-Right. Me neither.
So I decided not to drink so much water.
-We're supposed to go draw water too.
-I know.
I think we should
take turns getting the water.
This is literally hell.
Everything's so tough here.
How was the tour?
-Who were you with?
-Si-hun. The one who looks
-like an idol.
-Oh, the idol one.
Right. We met.
Doesn't he look like Lee Jong-suk?
-Oh. You're right.
-He does.
I can see that.
Yes. A bit.
-We talked a lot.
-Did you have fun?
-They both seem really nice.
-Really?
-I think the tallest one
-Who's the tallest?
is Hyeon-joong. Next to me.
-The one in white?
-The one in a pink shirt.
-He's the tallest?
-He's the tallest?
Yes, he's the tallest. And the other guy
was the one with the beard.
I remember him.
He gave such a strong first impression.
It looked like a movie
when you walked down the hill.
-Because of your clothes.
-Really?
-From a distance?
-Your clothes matched so well.
What do you think he does?
I feel like he's a business owner.
He looks like one, doesn't he?
I'd be so happy if I was right.
I have no idea.
I can't even guess his age.
-I have no idea.
-No clue.
Do women usually gossip
about men like that?
-Yes.
-They do.
They were talking about the restroom
and then suddenly turned to the men.
They all seemed different.
-They're all so different.
-All four of them.
-Completely different.
-I liked Ji-yeon.
Her skin is so pale.
Right.
As I saw her walking in,
I was like, "Gosh."
She seemed so white and pure.
That's my first impression of her.
Her skin is so fair.
And I like that tone.
-We like the same woman.
We like the same woman.
This is only our first day here.
-We don't know yet.
-You're right.
Next to her was Ji-a.
She was so fabulous.
-Wearing silver wedge heels.
-I didn't get to see any of that.
She was the shiniest.
I'm not sure if I'll even get
to talk to her before this is over.
-Why?
she didn't seem very approachable.
She looks so different
when she doesn't smile.
That's why I can't approach her.
When there's no expression on her face,
I have no idea what she's thinking.
Or how she's feeling.
I get what you mean.
The one who gave me
the best first impression was Ji-yeon.
Her smile was beautiful.
-Do you need a cushion?
-Thank you.
The one who was closest
to my ideal type was Ji-yeon.
Her shy smile was so cute.
The one who gave me
the best first impression
was Si-hun who walked together with me.
When we walked around the island together,
he was really nice to me.
-Are your shoes comfortable?
-Yes, they are.
-Are you tired? Are you okay?
-I think I'm a bit thirsty.
I'm thirsty too.
They liked each other.
Si-hun is quite aggressive.
Right.
And they look good together.
Yes.
-They're both slim.
-They're both pale too.
-"Pale"?
-Right.
Yea-won and Ji-a
are very close to my ideal type.
I love women who use dialects.
I find it very attractive.
Hello.
Jin-taek is the one
who drew my attention the most.
When he showed up with the sunglasses on,
I felt his charisma.
So-yeon, the one sitting next to me
caught my eyes first.
And I think we had
a pretty good conversation.
Jin-taek was very responsive
to everything I said.
What's your favorite drink?
I like whiskey.
Whiskey.
It'll be pretty at night
with all the lights on.
It'll look really nice.
All right.
-They look good together.
-They do.
Ji-a is a glamorous type,
which is close to my type.
On the other hand,
Ji-yeon is a pure and pretty type.
I think they're both attractive
but in opposite ways.
None of them is my ideal type.
SONG JI-A
-Goodness.
-Oh, no.
I think it's too early to talk about it.
I'd like to get to know them
while having dinner together.
-She's really charming.
-She's charming.
It's not easy
to say that on the first day.
-I agree.
-Right.
-She seems to be very honest.
-Right.
CAFETERIA
-We're going to lose some muscles here.
-Right.
-It's all raw.
I see only greens here.
We have amazing ingredients today.
It feels so far away.
Tell me about it.
It's so far away.
It's only the first day.
How many times have they changed?
Looks like they brought a lot of clothes.
-What's our main dish?
-Those are the ingredients we have.
We have cabbages and some vegetables.
We have garlic, onions,
and chili peppers too.
Let's divide the work.
Some of us can cook,
some of us can go get water,
-Water?
-Shall we begin?
-Let's begin.
Just tell me what to do.
-Tell me what to do.
-Me too.
Are these spring onions enough?
So our main dish is ssambap.
What else are we making?
Stir-fried spring onion kimchi.
How about we make doenjang soup with this?
Can we make doenjang soup?
We can just make some broth with doenjang
and cook the cabbages and onions with it.
Let's try it.
Okay. Finish this up first.
I'll cook the soup when you're done.
I find that really charming.
-They don't have any recipes.
-He's charming.
-He seems familiar with cooking.
-I think Se-hoon is cute.
-Would this be enough? Two?
Do you want an apron?
You're going to ruin your white shirt.
An apron? Okay.
Just put it on.
It's hot.
I think this will be okay.
There.
-Does it look all right?
-Yes.
Nice.
Let me see.
The collar.
-There.
-Good.
So we need to cook rice with these. Gosh.
We need to adjust the heat to cook rice.
Have you made a fire before?
No, of course not.
Let me try.
-Do you know how to do it?
-I can do it.
-You can do it.
Don't worry.
-Are you sure I don't need to worry?
-Yes. Don't worry.
We need to make a fire first,
so you can rest for now.
-There's nothing to do right now.
-I can hold it.
I can wash the rice.
Rice?
-It'll take a long time to cook rice.
-Oh, we have a torch too.
You're right.
Could you go wash the rice then?
I need to wash the rice.
-What are you doing?
-Washing the rice.
Okay.
Do you know how much rice is one serving?
How much rice is one serving?
-Isn't one cup of rice about two servings?
-One cup of rice for two?
-I think so.
-There are nine of us.
-One cup should be two to three servings.
An apron?
Ten cups should be enough.
-Are you from Busan?
-That's too much.
-Pardon?
-Are you from Busan?
I'm from Gyeongsang Province,
-but not from Busan.
-That's too much.
-I see.
-Is the rice in there?
Hyeon-joong made his point clear.
There are many conversations
at the same time.
-Right.
-Yes.
-I see.
-Is the rice in there?
How can I help?
Go ahead.
Okay.
We have to wait for now.
He's staying with Ji-a.
Yes.
-Is this a drama or what?
-I think I'm falling for Hyeon-joong.
He's getting more and more charming.
-He doesn't talk much.
-Right.
-He just quietly looks at her.
-He's quiet.
That's my type.
He seems to be watching her
because he wants to help her
if she makes a mistake.
And that's so sweet.
Plus, his eyes look so sad there.
He looks sad.
-Why, though?
-I don't know.
There's nothing to be sad about.
I wonder how the rice will turn out.
It'll be all right.
-You think?
-Yes. I'm 100 percent sure.
My eyes are burning.
-Gosh, it's hot!
-Oh, no.
-Be careful.
-Oh, no.
Be careful.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
You should wear gloves.
Did you drop it somewhere?
No. The steam is really hot.
-It's really hot.
-Oh, no.
-Be careful.
-You should be careful.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Did you burn your hand?
I got burned.
-It's so red.
-Oh, no.
-Are you okay?
-Yes, I'm okay.
But it's so red.
I know. It hurts so much.
You need cold water.
-I'm okay.
-Really?
-Don't do it.
-What?
-Don't do it.
-I should get some ointment.
You should rest.
Si-hun seems to have a cute side.
Anyhow, Si-hun and Ji-a
keep crossing paths.
For whatever reason.
Could you get me some water
from the bucket?
Right, water. How much water do you need?
Not much. Just a little.
This bucket?
Is this enough?
-It should be enough.
-What's that?
We can mix doenjang with water.
Do we have gochujang too?
Yes, we do.
A bit of gochujang makes
doenjang soup better.
-Sounds good.
Then let's add a bit of gochujang here.
-Just a bit. Okay.
-Yes.
Oh, my.
Se-hoon seems familiar with cooking.
-I know, right?
-But I think Se-hoon might be
-Oh, no.
-focusing too much on cooking now.
I think that can seem more charming.
-You have some good cutting skills.
-Oh, my.
Go, go, go.
We should hurry.
He's so trustworthy.
It's taking forever.
-Yes?
I think it's ready now.
You just need to add water to it.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
-It has a nice color.
-Are we making gochujang soup?
No, it's doenjang soup.
-Really?
-It's doenjang soup.
Let me give you a little tip.
With this, you can mix it with water
much more easily.
Like this?
I see.
-Did you put in enough doenjang?
-We did.
-A lot?
-We almost emptied one whole jar.
Why do I feel like
we're not doing it right?
I feel like we're missing something.
-I can eat with this. It's okay.
-Oh, really?
-Should we take some of this out?
-Sure.
Is that a spoon?
I thought we should wash it
while we have water.
-Are you washing the dishes?
-Yes.
-I shouldn't use too much.
-I'll do it.
-No, I'm good at it.
-It's okay. I'll do it.
What did the other person use?
I'll make it quick.
-Should I pass you the dishes?
-Yes.
He's really fast.
-We should wash them while we have water.
-Right.
We've perfectly adapted to this place.
Sorry?
When you like someone,
even their clumsiness is cute.
Everything seems lovely.
I'm starting to like Se-hoon.
-Are you?
-Yes.
-The rice is done.
-It is.
Right?
It looks good.
It looks pretty nice.
-My gosh.
-Awesome.
Gosh, this is wild.
It's like a survival game.
-What?
-Kitchen towels?
-It's in the back.
-In the back?
No.
-Do you need some help?
-Yes.
-He's good.
-Nice.
-He's good.
-Seriously. He's really good.
He's so cool.
-He's good.
-Nice.
The three men in the back are so funny.
I can totally understand.
They don't want to mess up.
Se-hoon must have earned a lot of points.
Seriously.
I'll go get some water.
Let's go, Jin-taek.
Okay.
Finally.
Will you guys be okay?
-Do you want me to come?
-You're more than welcome.
-Come with us.
-We'll be back.
-We'll be back.
The weather is so nice.
It is.
Did you women get to talk?
We talked about our ideal types.
-Pardon?
-Our ideal types.
-I see.
-What's your ideal type like?
I like men who are older than me.
Is that so?
Someone I can rely on.
Someone who can be
my boyfriend, dad, and friend.
-Boyfriend and dad?
-Someone to rely on.
Yes. Someone I can rely on.
I can't tell you who it is,
but one of the male participants
said you seemed hard to approach.
-Really?
-Yes.
I can seem so at first.
I didn't really dress up that much.
I thought I looked innocent.
In fact, I haven't dressed
so feminine in my life.
But apparently I failed.
You did fail.
Ji-a is actually very different
from her first impression.
-Right.
-I agree.
Good.
-Are your shoulders okay? Can I let go?
-Sure.
-Can you lift them?
-Try standing up.
You're good.
-It's like punishment.
-You got this.
-It suits you.
-It really does.
-Liars.
-I mean it.
Your veins are popping out.
They might actually pop.
But really, look. They're popping out.
He's right.
Goodness.
It's amazing.
That's Jun-sik.
What do you like to cook at home?
I like to cook unusual dishes.
-For example?
-Dishes like salmon steak or porchetta.
What?
Are you a chef?
This should be easy for you.
It looks so good.
I can't believe we made this.
Thanks to the doenjang
and gochujang mix you made.
-I guess
-It's all thanks to you.
I made myself useful.
You did most of it.
Looks like we managed
to make something edible.
We have soup and rice.
-I know.
-I'm impressed.
-I see them.
-Right?
They came back.
We can eat now.
Finally.
He looks so tired.
Thank you so much.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Well done, guys.
Thanks. Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
Shall we begin?
Shall we?
-Let's dig in.
-Let's eat.
-Enjoy.
-Enjoy.
I feel like I'll be the first one
to wake up tomorrow.
-I wake up without an alarm.
-Could you wake me up?
It's tasty.
The fried rice tastes amazing.
Really? Nice.
The doenjang soup is good too.
-I'm happy. We made this out of nothing.
-You find joy in these things.
This is simple happiness.
It's so nice to have dinner
along with the sound of the waves.
I know. It's almost surreal.
We usually watch YouTube
or listen to music.
The sound of nature instead of music.
Se-hoon seems to be
really enjoying the food.
I like men who love food.
He's here to survive.
Who?
I'm done.
-Oh, my.
-I'm good.
The fried rice is really good.
-Really?
-The best fried rice ever.
I'm glad you like it.
It's really good.
-It is.
-I like it too.
It's really tasty.
-Is there something in there?
-Yes.
Can I eat this?
Sure. Help yourself.
Would you like some water?
I'm so thirsty.
Let's have some.
Do we have more water?
We have a lot. Do you want some more?
Here. You can have this.
That's a beautiful sunset.
But I bet they can't be at peace
even for a single second there.
Right.
They need to flirt with each other
in front of all the cameras.
It's probably uncomfortable
within their groups too.
-It's their first day,
-Yes?
-so they need to be vague to everyone.
-Right.
And I think they dropped a lot of hints.
They'll probably all snore at night.
-They'll almost pass out.
-Yes. They must be really tired.
I think I'm going to lose weight here.
Does this mean we can't
have caffeine starting tomorrow? Coffee?
I really want to have some coffee.
I need coffee.
I can't stay awake otherwise.
This place makes me appreciate everything.
It really does.
I can't believe
the first day is already over.
Gosh, I'm hungry.
-Are you hungry?
-Yes.
Did you not eat much?
I just didn't feel like eating.
Because she was sitting across from you?
Ji-a?
Ji-a?
I'll have to talk to her
to know if I like her,
but I barely got to talk to her today.
I don't know.
What's that? Again?
Now, you will choose a person you like
and convey your feelings for them.
Really?
-I didn't think we'd have to do it today.
-Same.
I'm suddenly nervous.
-Me too.
-I'm nervous.
I'm so nervous.
You'll see postcards in your rooms.
Write down how you feel
about the person you like on a postcard.
Then put it in that person's postbox.
Please decide now.
You know what?
If I were one of them
and didn't get any postcards,
the next eight days would be too hard.
Me too.
-Some might get multiple postcards.
-Right.
How about we guess
who gets the most postcards?
-Okay.
-Sure.
I have my guess already.
-Who?
-Among female participants, Ji-a.
-Ji-a.
-Yes, she'll get the most.
Among male participants?
-Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon.
Because Ji-a showed a side
that no one expected.
Right.
At first, she looked so haughty and cold,
but she's actually quite lively.
She's also talkative and hard-working.
She worked a lot.
Right.
While watching the video clip,
I came to think Ji-a is very diligent.
Because she's everywhere?
Seriously, she always seems
to be working hard.
Right.
Whatever she does,
she observes the situations attentively.
She joined the guys getting water.
Right.
My guesses are the same as Kyuhyun's.
I think the most popular ones will be Ji-a
-Really?
-and Se-hoon.
Jin-kyung, you said earlier
that Se-hoon was focusing
too much on cooking.
But I don't think that's a problem.
There's no one as considerate as Se-hoon.
-I see.
-I agree.
As you saw, he was the one
who controlled the whole kitchen.
But he gave credit to others.
Thanks to the doenjang
and gochujang mix you made.
I guess
-It's all thanks to you.
-I made myself useful.
You did most of it.
The fried rice is really good.
-Really?
-The best fried rice ever.
I'm glad you like it.
-It's really good.
-It is.
-I like it too.
-Really.
He may not seem so,
but he makes a lot of thoughtful comments.
I'm not sure.
I think he's more of a practical type.
I think he knows
how to turn on the charm cleverly.
Right.
I also think Se-hoon will get
the most postcards.
-Se-hoon?
-All three of you picked him.
Yes.
You seem surprised, Jin-kyung.
Do you have a different opinion?
I think the male participants
think that Si-hun is interested in Ji-a.
-Right.
-Okay.
So I feel like they'll avoid her.
-Hyeon-joong?
-You mean, the guys will?
-Yes.
-I see.
I feel like most of them
will choose Ji-yeon.
If Ji-a is a fancy flower,
Ji-yeon is more like a wild flower.
-She's so pure.
-Right.
I think Jin-taek will get
the most postcards.
-Jin-taek? That's random.
-Yes. Jin-taek.
This is not about your personal taste.
We're talking about
who they would write to.
Well, it's just my guess.
-Let's see how it goes.
-It's not about your taste.
It's not my taste. It's my guess.
Okay.
MEN'S MAILBOXES
They must be so nervous.
Jin-taek is the first.
OH JIN-TAEK
He's so cool.
Are the male participants
all different from each other too?
I think they're all similar.
-I agree.
-Really?
-Except one.
-Right. Except one.
Jin-taek?
Because of this. Right?
That and his vibe.
His vibe.
I wonder how many postcards he'll get.
-He's Jin-kyung's pick.
-I don't think he got any.
-Nothing?
-He got nothing?
It seemed empty.
Oh, my gosh. Not even one?
Not even one.
-He got zero.
-Oh, no.
He seemed bitter.
This probably has never
happened in his life.
Right.
This can't be right.
I'm usually very intuitive.
Goodness. Poor him.
-How was it? Did you get anything?
-What?
Did you get anything?
Man, this is so mean.
I should try harder tomorrow.
OH JIN-TAEK
That's what I thought.
Right. Jin-taek was
only watching others today.
I think this will be okay.
There.
-Does it look all right?
-Yes.
He's so cool.
-He's good.
-Nice.
CHOI SI-HUN
It's Si-hun's turn.
Si-hun.
-There's something.
-There is.
-There's one in there.
-He got one.
"It was nice to meet you today."
-He seems really happy.
-He's happy.
CHOI SI-HUN: 1 POSTCARD
I think I know who wrote to him.
KIM JUN-SIK
I wonder who wrote to Jun-sik.
Oh, there's one.
-He got one.
-Thank goodness. He got one.
-"I like that you care about others"?
-"I like your tan."
KIM JUN-SIK: 1 POSTCARD
MOON SE-HOON
It's Se-hoon.
He was one of the most
impressive ones today.
I can't wait to see.
Two?
One.
"I saw you work hard
and enjoy the food today."
"I find that warm side of you charming."
I feel like that's So-yeon.
His hard work paid off.
MOON SE-HOON: 1 POSTCARD
KIM HYEON-JOONG
-He got one.
-He did.
Because Jin-taek got none.
-Only Jin-taek.
-Oh, no.
OPPA?
-"Oppa?"
-"Oppa?"
-Wait.
-Wait.
-It's Ji-a!
-It's Ji-a!
KIM HYEON-JOONG: 1 POSTCARD
That was a really clever one.
-It's amazing.
-Seriously.
She knows how to make
a man's heart flutter.
-I'm getting goosebumps.
-She knows.
-And she wrote only two words.
-"Oppa."
"Oppa." My gosh.
My gosh. Seriously.
WOMEN'S MAILBOXES
KANG SO-YEON, SONG JI-A,
SHIN JI-YEON, AN YEA-WON
-I'm going now.
-Am I next?
-Put on a poker face when you come back.
-How?
Just smile.
Yes. Smile.
-A smile would be the best.
-I can't.
What if I cry?
-I really might.
-I'll be all teary-eyed.
KANG SO-YEON
It's So-yeon's turn.
My goodness.
I probably didn't get any.
Wait. What?
What?
-She got one.
-Did she get more than one?
-More than one?
-Maybe.
What?
-She got two.
-Two?
"If someone asks me
how the weather was today,
I'll say it was like So-yeon."
"Thanks for your kind heart
and your delightful laughter."
I feel like this is Jin-taek.
This is amazing.
-"The best fried rice ever."
-Right.
KANG SO-YEON: 2 POSTCARDS
AN YEA-WON
It's Yea-won's turn.
Let's see.
It's empty.
Oh, no. It's empty.
Oh, no.
AN YEA-WON: 0 POSTCARDS
She's back. Yea-won is back.
I'm back.
-You look happier, Yea-won.
-It's cold.
What is it?
-What happened?
-What happened to your poker face?
-What happened?
-Nothing.
What is it?
Well, it was the first day we met,
so it didn't bother me that much.
Gosh, it's really cold.
I know.
Yes.
SHIN JI-YEON
All right. It's Ji-yeon's turn.
I wonder how many she got.
-Now, that's Ji-a.
-Ji-a.
We guessed that they would get the most.
I feel like most guys
wrote to Ji-a and Ji-yeon.
Ji-yeon and Ji-a.
Ji-yeon and Ji-a.
I think Ji-yeon and Ji-a
got the most postcards.
Well, I can tell from what the guys say
that they like those two.
And they caught my attention as well.
I think Ji-a is the most popular.
She's obviously the type that guys love.
She's also very fashionable.
I think it's Ji-yeon.
She looks like someone from a comic book.
She's the archetype
of a pure and feminine woman.
She makes us feel like
we need to protect her.
SONG JI-A, SHIN JI-YEON
There are two postcards.
Are there three?
-Three?
-Three postcards?
-Three?
-Three?
-Three postcards?
-This means one of them got zero.
Yes.
Subtitle translation by: Sun-young Baek
On these islands, you focus
only on each other's charms
under limited conditions
without knowing
each other's professions or ages.
This is Inferno.
If you manage to escape from Inferno,
you can go to Paradise.
On Paradise, you can have
fantastic dates under the best conditions
and reveal your professions and ages.
Now, attractive single men and women
have arrived at Inferno.
This place is a jungle.
This is like a survival game.
My heart's racing.
I'm not sure if I can fall in love here.
I don't know anything about her.
I want to know everything about you.
Just sleep here.
I can't say, "Don't go."
You're sly.
Time went by so slowly on Inferno.
-Hold my hand.
-Let's go together.
-What was your first impression of me?
-Sexy.
Are you trying to get to know me
or are you pitying me?
Are you feeling bad for me?
I think you're a bit selfish.
Was it intentional?
This place really feels like hell.
Isolated on a deserted island
in the hot summer.
Will they manage to find love
in the midst of an emotional storm?
This is the hottest inferno in the world.
Single's Inferno.
Oh, my goodness.
-It's so exciting.
-I can already feel it's going to be wild
-That was intense.
-from the opening.
The hottest inferno in the world.
Single's Inferno.
Single's Inferno is finally released
as a Netflix series.
We just took a quick peek,
but it seems to be the hottest dating show
we've ever seen in Korea.
-How was the opening?
Right.
It made me feel small.
Right.
And it doesn't feel
like a Korean dating show.
-That's right.
-It's more like a Michigan one.
-Didn't it have a Michigan vibe?
-It does seem foreign.
-It feels like a foreign show.
-It does.
I wonder what's going
to happen on that island.
Right.
-I heard from the film crew
-Yes?
that being stuck on a deserted island
made the participants
very emotional at the end.
I don't know how they managed
to release their emotions though.
If there's nothing much to do
but date on a deserted island,
I'd be very emotional too.
Because there's no way to let off steam.
Right. They don't have friends there.
-Exactly.
-They're all enemies.
INFERNO
What's all this?
Hello, my name is Kim Hyeon-joong.
I decided to come on this show
because I'm curious to see
if I could really find the one for me.
A lot of girls flirt with me.
I can see why.
My charms are this dimple
that shows when I smile,
a fit body,
and a really cute butt.
I try to work out
at least two hours a day.
I like to work out,
so I like women who put efforts
into working out.
His face looks so meek,
but his body looks so aggressive.
He's so charming.
-It's an unexpected charm.
-I had no idea he'd be so fit.
INFERNO
My name is Moon Se-hoon.
I think I'm unpopular
because people think I'm popular.
Really.
I'm very good at household chores.
I think many girls
found that very charming.
I love working out.
I run every day, and I love sweating.
I think I ran
around Seokchon Lake almost every day.
I never give up.
When I find someone I like,
I have to date her.
That's the kind of person I am.
Looks like he's someone
who never gives up.
He's a go-getter.
Hello.
Hello.
-It's nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
Someone's coming.
It's a woman.
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello.

Hello.
Hello.
You can sit wherever you want.
It's hot, isn't it?
It's really hot.
I'll sit here.
My name is Shin Ji-yeon.
When it comes to dating,
I know what I want.
I easily turn down those
who aren't my type.
When someone is my type?
I guess I'd try
to be more straightforward.
When I like someone,
I try to respond enthusiastically.
Personality matters a lot to me.
I like people who can influence me
in positive ways.
I think what makes me a charming person
are my positive vibes, empathy,
and my hands.
-Yes.
-My name is Shin Ji-yeon.
-Ji-yeon? I see.
-Yes, Ji-yeon.
Do you need a cushion?
Oh, thank you.
-Se-hoon, was it?
-Yes, Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon.
-Yes.
-Moon Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon. Okay.
Se-hoon seems to like her a lot.
It looks so obvious.
Someone's coming.
You're right.
Look at the long strides.
Hello, my name is Kim Jun-sik.
I like cat-face types.
I'm attracted to them.
I like cooking.
I often spend time
with my friends and acquaintances
eating food that I prepare.
This is an inferno for singles.
I'll do my best to make it to paradise.
Hello.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
-You can sit wherever you like.
-Sit wherever.
Now, where they sit
is going to be important too.
-You can sit wherever you like.
-Sit wherever.
I'll sit here.
She's wearing black.
She looks really tall.
I can feel her charisma
even from a distance.
Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
It's hot, isn't it?
Hello, I'm Kang So-yeon.
I'm straightforward and I don't lie.
I think I'm an easygoing person.
I'll be honest. I'm quite popular.
Yes.
She's confident.
I like boxing, swimming, playing golf,
tennis, basketball, running,
jujitsu, judo, weightlifting,
yoga, and pilates.
I can confidently do most sports.
What men find charming about me?
One can be sexy in so many ways.
I'd like to show different sides of myself
one by one, slowly.
-She looks so healthy.
-Right. With her sun-kissed skin and all.
I think many guys will like her.
Right.
I can't believe
we're actually on a deserted island.
Is he an idol singer?
He has really fair skin.
My name is Choi Si-hun.
Some people have
pure, innocent, and untainted eyes.
I like women who have those eyes.
I like going to the gym and boxing.
Going to the gym and boxing.
They're my hobbies.
I believe in destiny.
I'd be really happy to find my destiny
on Single's Inferno.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Nice to meet you.
-You can sit wherever you like to sit.
-I'll sit here then.
-Here?
-In the center, yes.
Nice to meet you.
Gosh, he squeezed in between the two.
Nice to meet you.
You look like an idol singer.
Someone's coming.
There she is.
My name is An Yea-won.
My charms?
I'm clumsy and playful in a cute way.
And I have a great body.
In summer, I go to beaches to get a tan.
And while I'm at the beach,
I do some jogging.
-People these days
-seem to work out a lot.
-They work out a lot.
I like people who have nice teeth.
I have really nice teeth. Don't you think?
Gosh, it's hot.
-It must've been tough.
-Thank you.
Oh, my gosh.
-Hello.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello. Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
You can sit wherever you want.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-They can't take their eyes off her.
-Their eyes are fixed on her.
My name is Song Ji-a.
Let me describe myself in two words.
Cute and sexy.
I don't play games when I date someone.
I don't want to have any regrets
when I love someone.
I'll be honest.
Physical attraction is what I see first.
Because that's the first thing you see
when you meet a person.
I like tall guys.
I'd like to be held in a tall guy's arms
because I'm rather small.
Personality is important too.
And how much money he has.
Wait. Am I being picky now?
Oh, no.
If there's something I want to do,
I have to do it.
If there's something I want,
I have to have it.
No other girls can beat me.
I'm that confident.
It's not too hot, is it?
It's so hot.
-There aren't many clouds.
-It's crazy.
It's going to get hotter.
-Over there.
Someone's coming. Oh, my.
Isn't that Men in Black?
-Look at him.
-He doesn't seem to be Korean.
-His walk has a Korean American vibe.
-Right.
My name is Oh Jin-taek.
I really want a flaming romance.
That's why I applied for this.
He's cool.
He's really handsome.
He looks a bit like Lee Jin-wook.
I like sexy women with hot bodies.
so I want to be with a sexy woman.
I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
As you probably know,
facial hair grows at different speeds.
But I try to keep them at the same length.
When it comes to asking someone out,
I have never failed.
Is he an actor? Is he a celebrity?
-I wonder what his profession is.
-Me too.
He could be a model too.
-Welcome.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
-Nice to meet you. Hello.
-Hello.
-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
My name is Oh Jin-taek.
-He's telling us his name already.
-Right.

OH JIN-TAEK
All nine participants
have gathered together.
Honestly, just watching them
makes me feel good.
They're all so gorgeous and good-looking.
-They feast my eyes.
-Right.
-They're all charming in their own ways.
-RIght?
It'll be all about their personal tastes.
By the way, the last participant
gave a very strong first impression.
Oh Jin-taek, you mean.
If I walked past him on the street,
I'd turn around to check him out.
And there aren't
many hairy participants on dating shows.
He had charisma.
Personally, I liked Hyeon-joong.
The first person.
-I see.
-I also think that out of the guys,
-Hyeon-joong is the most attractive.
-I agree.
-Really?
-He has such a pretty face
and an unexpectedly fit body.
-He looks very attractive when he smiles.
-His dimples.
Right. Some people have dimples
when they smile,
and I find that attractive.
I have a feeling
that many male participants
will go after Ji-a.
-She looks cold on the outside,
-Right.
but I feel like she'll be friendly
once you get to know her.
As a woman, I personally find
So-yeon attractive.
-Right, So-yeon.
-She's very attractive.
I feel like she's the kind of type
who can look really charming in the wild.
But I think men would be more attracted
to someone like Ji-yeon,
-the first female participant.
-Ji-yeon.
-Right.
-She has pale skin
-and she's skinny.
-Really pale.
Right.
I think many men would like
someone like her.
Can I take back what I said?
Sure.
I think it's Ji-yeon.
All the male participants
are sitting around Ji-yeon.
-Is that so?
-Oh, really?
-Maybe she's just sitting in the center.
-Right.
They said, "Is it too hot? Can you
stand the heat until everyone comes out?"
It's really hot.
Hello, singles.
Welcome to the hottest inferno
in the world,
Single's Inferno.
I'm the Master of Single's Inferno,

-Escape?
-Escape.
The map of the island is on the table.
I want you to now split
into three teams of three
and start discovering the island.
So we group up in threes.
They want us to explore the place.
OH JIN-TAEK, KANG SO-YEON, KIM HYEON-JOONG
-I guess that's where we vote.
-That's the voting place.
Why is there a snowflake?
Maybe it means it's cold.
The cafeteria.
Are we supposed to cook here?
-There's even a cauldron.
-A cauldron?
But this is a deserted island.
-We have all the ingredients here.
-This is so cool.
But there's no food.
Yes, there is. Here's some food.
Right. I see cabbages.
There's no protein.
There's no fridge here.
Food is the hardest part.
It almost feels like a survival game.
-Oh, there's water.
-That's water.
Wait. Is that it?
Maybe we should fill these ourselves.
Maybe we should draw water.
Isn't this a water bucket?
Hang on.
-I don't have a good feeling about this.
The conditions were poorer
than I imagined.
We had to keep drawing water
to stay hydrated.
We were really thirsty.
-I'm thirsty. What about you?
-I'm really thirsty.
-Do you want to go see where the water is?
-Yes.
Is it over there?
How long do we have to walk?
Looks like the water source
is really far from here.
I think this place is teaching me
I should appreciate water.
We have to come all the way here?
Every time? Seriously?
-Seriously?
-We have to come all the way here?
Oh, this is water.
That's water.
It's water.
We have to come here for water.
We have to be self-sufficient here.
Well, it's summer.
It's so hot and sunny here.
I'm not sure if I can fall in love
while surviving here for nine days.
It's so far away.
What could possibly be there?
-It's a snowflake.
-There's a snowflake on the map.
Snowflake?
What's this?
Because it takes time to get here.
-Oh, it's iced water.
-Iced water.
-Do you want some?
-What? Yes, I'd love some.
Looks like this is where we can get ice.
There's ice inside.
-I wish there weren't any bugs here.
-Bugs are what worries me the most here.
-Weren't there restrooms
-over here?
-Right.
-There are holes on the floor.
-Right.
-It's here.
-I see.
You can see everything inside.
How am I supposed to use this restroom?
There were way more bugs than I thought.
The condition of the showers
and the restrooms was so poor.
And there wasn't much food either.
I was taken aback.
INFERNO
-Oh, boy.
-Hello.
Hi.
How was it?
Looks like we're getting only
one bucket of water a day. Am I right?
-I think so.
-Are we?
This will make us eager to go to Paradise.
Right.
I hope there are no bugs at night.
Seriously.
The restroom is the worst.
-I don't think I can use it.
-Right. Me neither.
So I decided not to drink so much water.
-We're supposed to go draw water too.
-I know.
I think we should
take turns getting the water.
This is literally hell.
Everything's so tough here.
How was the tour?
-Who were you with?
-Si-hun. The one who looks
-like an idol.
-Oh, the idol one.
Right. We met.
Doesn't he look like Lee Jong-suk?
-Oh. You're right.
-He does.
I can see that.
Yes. A bit.
-We talked a lot.
-Did you have fun?
-They both seem really nice.
-Really?
-I think the tallest one
-Who's the tallest?
is Hyeon-joong. Next to me.
-The one in white?
-The one in a pink shirt.
-He's the tallest?
-He's the tallest?
Yes, he's the tallest. And the other guy
was the one with the beard.
I remember him.
He gave such a strong first impression.
It looked like a movie
when you walked down the hill.
-Because of your clothes.
-Really?
-From a distance?
-Your clothes matched so well.
What do you think he does?
I feel like he's a business owner.
He looks like one, doesn't he?
I'd be so happy if I was right.
I have no idea.
I can't even guess his age.
-I have no idea.
-No clue.
Do women usually gossip
about men like that?
-Yes.
-They do.
They were talking about the restroom
and then suddenly turned to the men.
They all seemed different.
-They're all so different.
-All four of them.
-Completely different.
-I liked Ji-yeon.
Her skin is so pale.
Right.
As I saw her walking in,
I was like, "Gosh."
She seemed so white and pure.
That's my first impression of her.
Her skin is so fair.
And I like that tone.
-We like the same woman.
We like the same woman.
This is only our first day here.
-We don't know yet.
-You're right.
Next to her was Ji-a.
She was so fabulous.
-Wearing silver wedge heels.
-I didn't get to see any of that.
She was the shiniest.
I'm not sure if I'll even get
to talk to her before this is over.
-Why?
she didn't seem very approachable.
She looks so different
when she doesn't smile.
That's why I can't approach her.
When there's no expression on her face,
I have no idea what she's thinking.
Or how she's feeling.
I get what you mean.
The one who gave me
the best first impression was Ji-yeon.
Her smile was beautiful.
-Do you need a cushion?
-Thank you.
The one who was closest
to my ideal type was Ji-yeon.
Her shy smile was so cute.
The one who gave me
the best first impression
was Si-hun who walked together with me.
When we walked around the island together,
he was really nice to me.
-Are your shoes comfortable?
-Yes, they are.
-Are you tired? Are you okay?
-I think I'm a bit thirsty.
I'm thirsty too.
They liked each other.
Si-hun is quite aggressive.
Right.
And they look good together.
Yes.
-They're both slim.
-They're both pale too.
-"Pale"?
-Right.
Yea-won and Ji-a
are very close to my ideal type.
I love women who use dialects.
I find it very attractive.
Hello.
Jin-taek is the one
who drew my attention the most.
When he showed up with the sunglasses on,
I felt his charisma.
So-yeon, the one sitting next to me
caught my eyes first.
And I think we had
a pretty good conversation.
Jin-taek was very responsive
to everything I said.
What's your favorite drink?
I like whiskey.
Whiskey.
It'll be pretty at night
with all the lights on.
It'll look really nice.
All right.
-They look good together.
-They do.
Ji-a is a glamorous type,
which is close to my type.
On the other hand,
Ji-yeon is a pure and pretty type.
I think they're both attractive
but in opposite ways.
None of them is my ideal type.
SONG JI-A
-Goodness.
-Oh, no.
I think it's too early to talk about it.
I'd like to get to know them
while having dinner together.
-She's really charming.
-She's charming.
It's not easy
to say that on the first day.
-I agree.
-Right.
-She seems to be very honest.
-Right.
CAFETERIA
-We're going to lose some muscles here.
-Right.
-It's all raw.
I see only greens here.
We have amazing ingredients today.
It feels so far away.
Tell me about it.
It's so far away.
It's only the first day.
How many times have they changed?
Looks like they brought a lot of clothes.
-What's our main dish?
-Those are the ingredients we have.
We have cabbages and some vegetables.
We have garlic, onions,
and chili peppers too.
Let's divide the work.
Some of us can cook,
some of us can go get water,
-Water?
-Shall we begin?
-Let's begin.
Just tell me what to do.
-Tell me what to do.
-Me too.
Are these spring onions enough?
So our main dish is ssambap.
What else are we making?
Stir-fried spring onion kimchi.
How about we make doenjang soup with this?
Can we make doenjang soup?
We can just make some broth with doenjang
and cook the cabbages and onions with it.
Let's try it.
Okay. Finish this up first.
I'll cook the soup when you're done.
I find that really charming.
-They don't have any recipes.
-He's charming.
-He seems familiar with cooking.
-I think Se-hoon is cute.
-Would this be enough? Two?
Do you want an apron?
You're going to ruin your white shirt.
An apron? Okay.
Just put it on.
It's hot.
I think this will be okay.
There.
-Does it look all right?
-Yes.
Nice.
Let me see.
The collar.
-There.
-Good.
So we need to cook rice with these. Gosh.
We need to adjust the heat to cook rice.
Have you made a fire before?
No, of course not.
Let me try.
-Do you know how to do it?
-I can do it.
-You can do it.
Don't worry.
-Are you sure I don't need to worry?
-Yes. Don't worry.
We need to make a fire first,
so you can rest for now.
-There's nothing to do right now.
-I can hold it.
I can wash the rice.
Rice?
-It'll take a long time to cook rice.
-Oh, we have a torch too.
You're right.
Could you go wash the rice then?
I need to wash the rice.
-What are you doing?
-Washing the rice.
Okay.
Do you know how much rice is one serving?
How much rice is one serving?
-Isn't one cup of rice about two servings?
-One cup of rice for two?
-I think so.
-There are nine of us.
-One cup should be two to three servings.
An apron?
Ten cups should be enough.
-Are you from Busan?
-That's too much.
-Pardon?
-Are you from Busan?
I'm from Gyeongsang Province,
-but not from Busan.
-That's too much.
-I see.
-Is the rice in there?
Hyeon-joong made his point clear.
There are many conversations
at the same time.
-Right.
-Yes.
-I see.
-Is the rice in there?
How can I help?
Go ahead.
Okay.
We have to wait for now.
He's staying with Ji-a.
Yes.
-Is this a drama or what?
-I think I'm falling for Hyeon-joong.
He's getting more and more charming.
-He doesn't talk much.
-Right.
-He just quietly looks at her.
-He's quiet.
That's my type.
He seems to be watching her
because he wants to help her
if she makes a mistake.
And that's so sweet.
Plus, his eyes look so sad there.
He looks sad.
-Why, though?
-I don't know.
There's nothing to be sad about.
I wonder how the rice will turn out.
It'll be all right.
-You think?
-Yes. I'm 100 percent sure.
My eyes are burning.
-Gosh, it's hot!
-Oh, no.
-Be careful.
-Oh, no.
Be careful.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
You should wear gloves.
Did you drop it somewhere?
No. The steam is really hot.
-It's really hot.
-Oh, no.
-Be careful.
-You should be careful.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Did you burn your hand?
I got burned.
-It's so red.
-Oh, no.
-Are you okay?
-Yes, I'm okay.
But it's so red.
I know. It hurts so much.
You need cold water.
-I'm okay.
-Really?
-Don't do it.
-What?
-Don't do it.
-I should get some ointment.
You should rest.
Si-hun seems to have a cute side.
Anyhow, Si-hun and Ji-a
keep crossing paths.
For whatever reason.
Could you get me some water
from the bucket?
Right, water. How much water do you need?
Not much. Just a little.
This bucket?
Is this enough?
-It should be enough.
-What's that?
We can mix doenjang with water.
Do we have gochujang too?
Yes, we do.
A bit of gochujang makes
doenjang soup better.
-Sounds good.
Then let's add a bit of gochujang here.
-Just a bit. Okay.
-Yes.
Oh, my.
Se-hoon seems familiar with cooking.
-I know, right?
-But I think Se-hoon might be
-Oh, no.
-focusing too much on cooking now.
I think that can seem more charming.
-You have some good cutting skills.
-Oh, my.
Go, go, go.
We should hurry.
He's so trustworthy.
It's taking forever.
-Yes?
I think it's ready now.
You just need to add water to it.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
-It has a nice color.
-Are we making gochujang soup?
No, it's doenjang soup.
-Really?
-It's doenjang soup.
Let me give you a little tip.
With this, you can mix it with water
much more easily.
Like this?
I see.
-Did you put in enough doenjang?
-We did.
-A lot?
-We almost emptied one whole jar.
Why do I feel like
we're not doing it right?
I feel like we're missing something.
-I can eat with this. It's okay.
-Oh, really?
-Should we take some of this out?
-Sure.
Is that a spoon?
I thought we should wash it
while we have water.
-Are you washing the dishes?
-Yes.
-I shouldn't use too much.
-I'll do it.
-No, I'm good at it.
-It's okay. I'll do it.
What did the other person use?
I'll make it quick.
-Should I pass you the dishes?
-Yes.
He's really fast.
-We should wash them while we have water.
-Right.
We've perfectly adapted to this place.
Sorry?
When you like someone,
even their clumsiness is cute.
Everything seems lovely.
I'm starting to like Se-hoon.
-Are you?
-Yes.
-The rice is done.
-It is.
Right?
It looks good.
It looks pretty nice.
-My gosh.
-Awesome.
Gosh, this is wild.
It's like a survival game.
-What?
-Kitchen towels?
-It's in the back.
-In the back?
No.
-Do you need some help?
-Yes.
-He's good.
-Nice.
-He's good.
-Seriously. He's really good.
He's so cool.
-He's good.
-Nice.
The three men in the back are so funny.
I can totally understand.
They don't want to mess up.
Se-hoon must have earned a lot of points.
Seriously.
I'll go get some water.
Let's go, Jin-taek.
Okay.
Finally.
Will you guys be okay?
-Do you want me to come?
-You're more than welcome.
-Come with us.
-We'll be back.
-We'll be back.
The weather is so nice.
It is.
Did you women get to talk?
We talked about our ideal types.
-Pardon?
-Our ideal types.
-I see.
-What's your ideal type like?
I like men who are older than me.
Is that so?
Someone I can rely on.
Someone who can be
my boyfriend, dad, and friend.
-Boyfriend and dad?
-Someone to rely on.
Yes. Someone I can rely on.
I can't tell you who it is,
but one of the male participants
said you seemed hard to approach.
-Really?
-Yes.
I can seem so at first.
I didn't really dress up that much.
I thought I looked innocent.
In fact, I haven't dressed
so feminine in my life.
But apparently I failed.
You did fail.
Ji-a is actually very different
from her first impression.
-Right.
-I agree.
Good.
-Are your shoulders okay? Can I let go?
-Sure.
-Can you lift them?
-Try standing up.
You're good.
-It's like punishment.
-You got this.
-It suits you.
-It really does.
-Liars.
-I mean it.
Your veins are popping out.
They might actually pop.
But really, look. They're popping out.
He's right.
Goodness.
It's amazing.
That's Jun-sik.
What do you like to cook at home?
I like to cook unusual dishes.
-For example?
-Dishes like salmon steak or porchetta.
What?
Are you a chef?
This should be easy for you.
It looks so good.
I can't believe we made this.
Thanks to the doenjang
and gochujang mix you made.
-I guess
-It's all thanks to you.
I made myself useful.
You did most of it.
Looks like we managed
to make something edible.
We have soup and rice.
-I know.
-I'm impressed.
-I see them.
-Right?
They came back.
We can eat now.
Finally.
He looks so tired.
Thank you so much.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Well done, guys.
Thanks. Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
Shall we begin?
Shall we?
-Let's dig in.
-Let's eat.
-Enjoy.
-Enjoy.
I feel like I'll be the first one
to wake up tomorrow.
-I wake up without an alarm.
-Could you wake me up?
It's tasty.
The fried rice tastes amazing.
Really? Nice.
The doenjang soup is good too.
-I'm happy. We made this out of nothing.
-You find joy in these things.
This is simple happiness.
It's so nice to have dinner
along with the sound of the waves.
I know. It's almost surreal.
We usually watch YouTube
or listen to music.
The sound of nature instead of music.
Se-hoon seems to be
really enjoying the food.
I like men who love food.
He's here to survive.
Who?
I'm done.
-Oh, my.
-I'm good.
The fried rice is really good.
-Really?
-The best fried rice ever.
I'm glad you like it.
It's really good.
-It is.
-I like it too.
It's really tasty.
-Is there something in there?
-Yes.
Can I eat this?
Sure. Help yourself.
Would you like some water?
I'm so thirsty.
Let's have some.
Do we have more water?
We have a lot. Do you want some more?
Here. You can have this.
That's a beautiful sunset.
But I bet they can't be at peace
even for a single second there.
Right.
They need to flirt with each other
in front of all the cameras.
It's probably uncomfortable
within their groups too.
-It's their first day,
-Yes?
-so they need to be vague to everyone.
-Right.
And I think they dropped a lot of hints.
They'll probably all snore at night.
-They'll almost pass out.
-Yes. They must be really tired.
I think I'm going to lose weight here.
Does this mean we can't
have caffeine starting tomorrow? Coffee?
I really want to have some coffee.
I need coffee.
I can't stay awake otherwise.
This place makes me appreciate everything.
It really does.
I can't believe
the first day is already over.
Gosh, I'm hungry.
-Are you hungry?
-Yes.
Did you not eat much?
I just didn't feel like eating.
Because she was sitting across from you?
Ji-a?
Ji-a?
I'll have to talk to her
to know if I like her,
but I barely got to talk to her today.
I don't know.
What's that? Again?
Now, you will choose a person you like
and convey your feelings for them.
Really?
-I didn't think we'd have to do it today.
-Same.
I'm suddenly nervous.
-Me too.
-I'm nervous.
I'm so nervous.
You'll see postcards in your rooms.
Write down how you feel
about the person you like on a postcard.
Then put it in that person's postbox.
Please decide now.
You know what?
If I were one of them
and didn't get any postcards,
the next eight days would be too hard.
Me too.
-Some might get multiple postcards.
-Right.
How about we guess
who gets the most postcards?
-Okay.
-Sure.
I have my guess already.
-Who?
-Among female participants, Ji-a.
-Ji-a.
-Yes, she'll get the most.
Among male participants?
-Se-hoon.
-Se-hoon.
Because Ji-a showed a side
that no one expected.
Right.
At first, she looked so haughty and cold,
but she's actually quite lively.
She's also talkative and hard-working.
She worked a lot.
Right.
While watching the video clip,
I came to think Ji-a is very diligent.
Because she's everywhere?
Seriously, she always seems
to be working hard.
Right.
Whatever she does,
she observes the situations attentively.
She joined the guys getting water.
Right.
My guesses are the same as Kyuhyun's.
I think the most popular ones will be Ji-a
-Really?
-and Se-hoon.
Jin-kyung, you said earlier
that Se-hoon was focusing
too much on cooking.
But I don't think that's a problem.
There's no one as considerate as Se-hoon.
-I see.
-I agree.
As you saw, he was the one
who controlled the whole kitchen.
But he gave credit to others.
Thanks to the doenjang
and gochujang mix you made.
I guess
-It's all thanks to you.
-I made myself useful.
You did most of it.
The fried rice is really good.
-Really?
-The best fried rice ever.
I'm glad you like it.
-It's really good.
-It is.
-I like it too.
-Really.
He may not seem so,
but he makes a lot of thoughtful comments.
I'm not sure.
I think he's more of a practical type.
I think he knows
how to turn on the charm cleverly.
Right.
I also think Se-hoon will get
the most postcards.
-Se-hoon?
-All three of you picked him.
Yes.
You seem surprised, Jin-kyung.
Do you have a different opinion?
I think the male participants
think that Si-hun is interested in Ji-a.
-Right.
-Okay.
So I feel like they'll avoid her.
-Hyeon-joong?
-You mean, the guys will?
-Yes.
-I see.
I feel like most of them
will choose Ji-yeon.
If Ji-a is a fancy flower,
Ji-yeon is more like a wild flower.
-She's so pure.
-Right.
I think Jin-taek will get
the most postcards.
-Jin-taek? That's random.
-Yes. Jin-taek.
This is not about your personal taste.
We're talking about
who they would write to.
Well, it's just my guess.
-Let's see how it goes.
-It's not about your taste.
It's not my taste. It's my guess.
Okay.
MEN'S MAILBOXES
They must be so nervous.
Jin-taek is the first.
OH JIN-TAEK
He's so cool.
Are the male participants
all different from each other too?
I think they're all similar.
-I agree.
-Really?
-Except one.
-Right. Except one.
Jin-taek?
Because of this. Right?
That and his vibe.
His vibe.
I wonder how many postcards he'll get.
-He's Jin-kyung's pick.
-I don't think he got any.
-Nothing?
-He got nothing?
It seemed empty.
Oh, my gosh. Not even one?
Not even one.
-He got zero.
-Oh, no.
He seemed bitter.
This probably has never
happened in his life.
Right.
This can't be right.
I'm usually very intuitive.
Goodness. Poor him.
-How was it? Did you get anything?
-What?
Did you get anything?
Man, this is so mean.
I should try harder tomorrow.
OH JIN-TAEK
That's what I thought.
Right. Jin-taek was
only watching others today.
I think this will be okay.
There.
-Does it look all right?
-Yes.
He's so cool.
-He's good.
-Nice.
CHOI SI-HUN
It's Si-hun's turn.
Si-hun.
-There's something.
-There is.
-There's one in there.
-He got one.
"It was nice to meet you today."
-He seems really happy.
-He's happy.
CHOI SI-HUN: 1 POSTCARD
I think I know who wrote to him.
KIM JUN-SIK
I wonder who wrote to Jun-sik.
Oh, there's one.
-He got one.
-Thank goodness. He got one.
-"I like that you care about others"?
-"I like your tan."
KIM JUN-SIK: 1 POSTCARD
MOON SE-HOON
It's Se-hoon.
He was one of the most
impressive ones today.
I can't wait to see.
Two?
One.
"I saw you work hard
and enjoy the food today."
"I find that warm side of you charming."
I feel like that's So-yeon.
His hard work paid off.
MOON SE-HOON: 1 POSTCARD
KIM HYEON-JOONG
-He got one.
-He did.
Because Jin-taek got none.
-Only Jin-taek.
-Oh, no.
OPPA?
-"Oppa?"
-"Oppa?"
-Wait.
-Wait.
-It's Ji-a!
-It's Ji-a!
KIM HYEON-JOONG: 1 POSTCARD
That was a really clever one.
-It's amazing.
-Seriously.
She knows how to make
a man's heart flutter.
-I'm getting goosebumps.
-She knows.
-And she wrote only two words.
-"Oppa."
"Oppa." My gosh.
My gosh. Seriously.

-I'm going now.
-Am I next?
-Put on a poker face when you come back.
-How?
Just smile.
Yes. Smile.
-A smile would be the best.
-I can't.
What if I cry?
-I really might.
-I'll be all teary-eyed.
KANG SO-YEON
It's So-yeon's turn.
My goodness.
I probably didn't get any.
Wait. What?
What?
-She got one.
-Did she get more than one?
-More than one?
-Maybe.
What?
-She got two.
-Two?
"If someone asks me
how the weather was today,
I'll say it was like So-yeon."
"Thanks for your kind heart

I feel like this is Jin-taek.
This is amazing.
-"The best fried rice ever."
-Right.
KANG SO-YEON: 2 POSTCARDS
AN YEA-WON
It's Yea-won's turn.
Let's see.
It's empty.
Oh, no. It's empty.
Oh, no.
AN YEA-WON: 0 POSTCARDS
She's back. Yea-won is back.
I'm back.
-You look happier, Yea-won.
-It's cold.
What is it?
-What happened?
-What happened to your poker face?
-What happened?
-Nothing.
What is it?
Well, it was the first day we met,
so it didn't bother me that much.
Gosh, it's really cold.
I know.
Yes.
SHIN JI-YEON
All right. It's Ji-yeon's turn.
I wonder how many she got.
-Now, that's Ji-a.
-Ji-a.
We guessed that they would get the most.
I feel like most guys
wrote to Ji-a and Ji-yeon.
Ji-yeon and Ji-a.
Ji-yeon and Ji-a.
I think Ji-yeon and Ji-a
got the most postcards.
Well, I can tell from what the guys say
that they like those two.
And they caught my attention as well.
I think Ji-a is the most popular.
She's obviously the type that guys love.
She's also very fashionable.
I think it's Ji-yeon.
She looks like someone from a comic book.
She's the archetype
of a pure and feminine woman.
She makes us feel like
we need to protect her.
SONG JI-A, SHIN JI-YEON
There are two postcards.
Are there three?
-Three?
-Three postcards?
-Three?
-Three?
-Three postcards?
-This means one of them got zero.
Yes.
