Single's Inferno is a South Korean dating series that gained massive international popularity when it was made available for streaming on Netflix. In 2022, it became the first Korean reality TV show to hit the global top 10 list on Netflix and since then, the show has grown to a total of 4 seasons with the most recent season being released in 2025.
The popularity of the show leaves fans with just one question: will Single's Inferno be getting a 5th season?
What is Single's Inferno about?
Single's Inferno has been called the Korean version of Bachelor in Paradise, but this South Korean dating show is a lot more intense. The show combines dating competition shows with survival competition shows when singles are put on an island, known on the show as the Inferno, and are tasked with competing in order to find their match and leave to go to Paradise.
Singles compete while on the Inferno in order win games that will grant them access to dates in order to get to know the other singles and potentially make a connection with someone that they want to leave the Inferno with to move on to Paradise. Once they leave and head to paradise, they get to stay in a luxurious hotel where they're able to relax and deepen their connection with their match and, hopefully, leave with the person at the end.
Along with the singles that are trying to find love on the Inferno, there's a panel of hosts that share their thoughts on the contestants throughout the season and add another layer of fun to the show for viewers.
Was Single's Inferno renewed for season 5?
Considering the international success of the first seasons of Single's Inferno, it should come as no surprise to fans that Netflix has already renewed the show for another season. Season 4 aired in January and February of 2025, but only one day after season 4 wrapped, Netflix announced that the show would be returning for another season.
"We've made it to Season 5 thanks to the immense love and support from our viewers. Season 5 will be filled with new excitement and romance," Producers Kim Jae-won, Kim Jung-hyun, Park Suji said in a statement shared by the streaming service.
According to Koreaboo, production has already started casting a new group of singles and Netflix will begin filming season 5 of Single's Inferno in mid-2025. This means the show will likely follow a similar release schedule to previous seasons and season 5 will be released on Netflix in early 2026.
Catch up on the first four seasons of Single's Inferno ahead of the fifth season now, exclusively on Netflix.
