'Single's Inferno 4' set a record for the highest ratings for two consecutive weeks.
On the 4th, Netflix said its original entertainment show 'Single's Inferno 5' achieved its own highest record for two consecutive weeks, demonstrating the staying power of the legendary dating reality show.
In 'Single's Inferno 5', the unabashed flirting of singles who are more candid and confident than in any previous season, and the tangled emotions of singles within love lines that flip in an instant, raised excitement and dopamine to the fullest. The joining of Jo I Geon and Lee Ha-eun as the 'Ssangmegi', and as the singles' emotions escalated to the extreme, global viewers' enthusiasm also grew even hotter.
Fueled by this, according to the Netflix Top 10 website on the 4th, 'Single's Inferno 5' recorded 3.9 million views (the number of views is the number of viewing sessions divided by the total running time of the title / from Jan. 26 to Feb. 1) and 37.3 million hours watched, showing the staying power to continue at No. 2 in Netflix's Top 10 non-English shows category. It not only ranked No. 1 in places including Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore, but also made the Top 10 lists in 26 countries including Taiwan, Brazil, Japan and Morocco, heating up viewers' hearts around the world.
Right after the third-week release, online message board reactions also exploded. "I'm flirting and I'm like why am I like this right now while smiling like Lee Da-hee, ah Single's Inferno is fun" (x @ro*****), "Everyone's Single's Inferno-holic" (X @queen*******), "The cast are fun, but watching the MCs get absorbed while watching is also fun" (X @TSLA********), "After watching this my type changed to younger" (YouTube @jkk*****) and other responses poured in.
The five MCs of the 'dating show'—Hong Jin Kyung, Lee Da-hee, Kyuhyun, Hanhae and Dex—and the production team all emphasized that it was an "epic season," and that confidence was proven by the results. Producers Kim Jaewon, Kim Junghyun and Park Suji said, "Even though this is the fifth season, feeling that there are still many fans who like it is truly miraculous," and added, "We will listen even more closely to fans' voices and work to create good content," expressing their gratitude.
Episodes 11 and 12 of 'Single's Inferno 5' will be released on the 10th.
