Netflix's hit South Korean reality dating show Single's Inferno finally gets a release date for its fourth season along with a teaser trailer and poster. Today, Netflix has announced that Single's Inferno Season 4 is scheduled to release on January 14, 2025, which is about a little more than a year since the Season 3 finale episode was released. This marks the first time a Netlfix original Korean series has been produced for a fourth season.
Keeping the tradition of previous Single's Inferno seasons' promotional rounds, the first teaser for Single's Inferno Season 4 teases the new single contestants without fully revealing their faces. The video begins with the narration, “Love is a cruel game of survival,” before cutting to the contestants trying to romance and engage in competitive sports activities during their stay in the remote island and the luxury hotel. Based on this sneak peek teasing their intense chemistry, we can expect romantic tension and drama that will surely unfold in the fourth season.
The first teaser poster for Single's Inferno Season 4 features the attractive contestants having fun at the beach, with the women dressed in swimsuits and one of the guys wearing white trunks and showing his ripped body. Their faces are obscured by sunshine and splashes of water, which are intentionally placed to conceal their faces, sparking curiosity about the looks of the contestants. Netflix will likely release another poster closer to Season 4's release that fully reveals the faces of the contestants.
What is Single's Inferno about?
If you're wondering what this South Korean series is about, Single's Inferno is a reality dating show that features a group of single men and women stranded on a deserted island (Inferno) together. The contestants are only given a few resources, and the only way they can escape the island to spend a night at a luxury hotel (Paradise) is if they romantically match for date nights. They're only allowed to reveal their age and profession in the hotel, and they participate in various physical games to win a chance to choose who they spend a night in "Paradise" with.
It's not surprising to see Netflix confirm the release date for Single's Inferno Season 4. The series has been one of the most-watched reality shows on the platform. Single's Inferno Season 3 dominated Netflix's Top 10 global charts for non-English TV series when it premiered in early December 2023. For the week of December 25 to 31, the series placed 7th in the streamer's global Top 10 for TV Series (Non-English).
The first two seasons of Single's Inferno also dominated the streamer's global charts, proving that there's clearly a big global audience for this kind of show. Other reality Korean series like Physical 100, The Devil's Plan, and Culinary Class Wars were also renewed by Netflix, so we can expect to continue to see Single's Inferno and the aforementioned reality shows dominate the streamer's global charts with their upcoming seasons.
