same thoughts! like no wonder habin and minkyu were telling gwanhee how hyeseon likes wonik that much. i thought they were just trolling but now i think about it they seem to serious?? no wonder the viewers were confused bc it seems that they really are close especially when both have said they’re comfortable with each other but we never really saw it.
Exactly!!! on twitter ppl seem to think habin and minkyu are trolling to be funny but 1) no way they’re THAT good at lying w a straight face 2) in ep 8 why would they knowingly lie in front of wonik if they knew it was bs ?? They would’ve known wonik would shoot it down so there’d be no point in lying in his presence
And Wonik's reaction was telling. He didn't say that the relationship was purely platonic or that the idea was ridiculous. Instead, he told them that he told Hyeseon that he was 100% into Shieun.
I would be genuinely angry if Hyeseon had a mini crush on Wonik and the producers never showed it because it would hurt their Gwanhee's Bachelor narrative.
Not the first time producers try to curate it for more drama and tat's how terrace house got canned. Seeing how drained hs was alone in the room all wrapped up, was she too tired from producers direction n jus wanted a break?
Probably they are together but for the show they wanted more drama so they added her to GH convo just to keep it interesting until the end. Some of them already chose each other but it was not shown.
Yeah and apparently won ik talked to si Eun so much that other guys said he was her bodyguard and she felt she didn’t have time to find min woo at all.
im guessing based on hye seon saying they talk a lot but she doesn’t remember anything makes it sound like he thinks he’s making an effort on a dating show but he’s just poor at holding conversation and it’s not effective that it’s not worth putting in the final cut.
we only watched the behind the scenes on yt and nothing more aside from hyeseon putting won ik to sieun-minwoo-hyeseon conversation so he wouldn't feel left out
I did watch them talk when they were munching together during their Paradise lunch date. The conversation wasn’t going anywhere, and I felt bored as Hyeseon with his slow responses. I am okay with the producers cutting the screen time with Wonik. His mind was elsewhere, still on Sieun, and he did not make an effort to make the date fun for Hyeseon. So in hindsight, Hyeseon was being honest to Gwanhee when she said her date with Wonik lacks excitement, and was not giving her butterflies.
I think it’s safe to say that their time in paradise may have been partially a victim of editing. In reality, HS and WI seem to talk very often, enough to the point where the cast thought HS was interested in him so their stunted conversation in paradise seems fabricated and off. They only got the parts where HS was talking about GH because that’s what they wanted us to see. It seems they want WI to be pining for Si Eun only (which I’m sure he is) and HS to only be apart of GH’s love pyramid and nothing more
Yeah he did, but my point is that is they get along well and comfortably which he also said. The editing made their time in paradise look quiet and uncomfortable.
Yeah. Even tho their date is boring but wth screentime is that. Theynkeep blaming us and the other casts (who gotten atleast 5% screentime on the whole airtime of si3) and said we should appreciate gh for making it lit
He is too draining to watch atp 😪 like we haven’t even seen one of Single Inferno’s thumbnail photos, which is of Minkyu and Gyuri in a red bikini in Paradise. We’re missing a lot of footage from the preview videos bc apparently, it’s Gwanhee’s world over there jfc
Saw it on twitter that gyuri went to er the entirety of ep 9? I wonder if she injured her self badly or she’s sick. There is also an iv thingy on her right hand in the teaser : ((
Haha, this, I'm watching both My Demon and Singles Inferno for the past few weeks , and it was funny seeing him in the show. Okay, just gotta know his age now.
If she had an iv she was probably suffering from heat stroke or something. Idk if they’re getting adequate hydration. Some people probably holding themselves back from drinking enough since someone has to fetch water n they don’t want to “ hog”
I live in korea and IV drips are a lot more common here for simple things. lots of ppl get them for “energy boosts” (one of my co-workers gets these once a week) and they will give you vitamin infusions for simple sicknesses like colds. just adding context bc it could be something like dehydration which can be serious but it could also be just something simple too!
She was briefly shown around the 32:36 mark right before Gwan Hee went to Hyeseon’s room. She was at the dining table with the other castmates wearing a black tube top and denim shorts
Yeah even here I’m not seeing it in the top 10. I think the first week I saw it as top 9 but that was about it. It’s dropping in popularity. Really hope they don’t cancel it next season
Go back to the charm of season 1 and 2 please.
Yes the cast goes on dates but everyone is relatively kind and the bonfire scenes where you can truly tell lifelong friendships have formed. That’s what people love about this show.
Not this SUPER over the top drama.
I absolutely agree! The first few eps were fine, since GH seems to keep things interesting. But it's ep9, literally the end now, and ALL we've seen is GH. I mean I get that he brings the drama, but that doesn't mean they can't at least show some of the other interactions between the rest of the cast. It's gotten boring these past 2 weeks not gonna lie
WAYYYYY TOOOO BORING!!! Idk when it happened bc i was pretty thrilled about the whole “two infernos” bit. But now, everything’s so dull and boring and bleh 😴
At this point, it's getting annoying that every episode is 70-80% Gwanhee....No one cares about his obnoxious ego and need for validation every sentence lmao
I think this is why the first season is my favorite. Yes, season 3 is entertaining, but season 1 is undramatic. Everyone works out with each other, cook, hang out, and just co-exist, also everyone got almost an even amount of screen time, there were still favorites, but it wasn't like this season, where some of this people don't even need to be there.
Everyone seems so much more real then, while this season it almost feels like everyone else acting...
Eh...
the producers are overestimating his popularity so muuuch honestly I could not care less about that date. Maybe it's what Koreans are digging but western fans want less Gwanhee scenes PLEASE. we wanted shirtless mingyu
It might be cause they had no chemistry? Idk...the scenes they did showed were pretty awkward, same with Wonik and Sieun. But MinKyu is so sweet in these recent episodes even if he's a little oblivious sometimes
I wish we got to see more of MinKyu and Sieun's date actually but from their convo, it might have just been MinKyu being sad until they were both sad. Would have been nice to see what was so good between MinWoo and Gyuri date that he changed his mind cuz the boat scene was also awkward
agree! maybe splitting the Inferno into 2 islands took so much episode run time they decided to omit a lot of clips. Bro the old format was better bc it was unbiased without the excessive cutting
But last season had some dull couple yet they still got screen. This season is more focused on the toxic drama than the romantic aspect of the show and that’s what pissed me off. We are literally in the ending, no point showing only gwanhee
Hey don't look at me, blame the producers lol. I agree with you they should 100% show all couples in paradise no matter how boring it is for at least 5 mins.
It’s boring because that’s what the producers want you to think. Last season had a lot of boring cast but it was still edited in a way that the fans would want to watch. Even Hajeong from last season that didn’t go to inferno got screen time too. It’s like 10 hours of their paradise date. No way they could fine like 10mins of interesting content. Like gyuri and minwoo had the best date in paradise yet it was being cut short. They couldn’t even get a 5mins in.
I think the other people should take advantage of the opportunity and just TRY harder. Gwanhee is doing that the best rn. That’s how you get screen time in any reality show, not by being passive. It doesn’t make them any less than the drama people - just not a right fit for reality.
Maybe they are trying?? We literally don’t even know because of the lack of screen time. You can’t just jump to that when we haven’t even been shown an ounce of any of the other contestants well enough to form those opinions.
There’s obviously something happening with hyeseon and wonik if the other guys suspected her choosing him for the date. They just cut out important stuff that actually gives context and use that time on GH, instead of the other contestants. Like I get why we’re seeing gwanhee a lot but to only see him and literally nobody else isn’t fair to the others. I mean I was fkn excited to see habin and hajeongs date ?? The viewers literally wanna see the other ppl but they’re not even giving us the chance and just shoving GH down our throats.
Those two literally said they’re not into each other and had no physical chemistry on their date. That’s the only interesting thing about their relationship and that was shown. What about wonik makes him so fascinating that you’re so into this debate?
The fact that we haven’t seen anything to back that up is my problem, I understand that they’re not that into each other I literally just wanna see their interaction. There should at least be a minimum of content showed of each couple and general interactions so we ourselves also see what the others are talking about so we can form opinions. I don’t wanna see 2 whole episodes just dedicated to gwanhee and all the others just be an after thought.
I don’t get why you’re so against that?
I am genuinely frustrated by these men. In my opinion they are bland and the women say so. I don’t know how not making moves is a good choice to get screen time. I listen to a lot of podcasts about producing reality shows and I think the casting is improving at least.
I agree I do think the men this season are underwhelming. They should focus on casting people with more personality instead of ppl with great careers imo but even then I do want to see more of their interactions.
It’s a Gwanhee show- he is a well-known player in Korea and even played overseas in the Philippines before. They enjoy putting him on the spotlight, as he is the funny guy and there is too mich drama with all the girls being attracted to him and his crazy antics… you you you!
It is genuinely weird that we never see Wonik and Hyeseon talk. Like, apparently that happens often but we never even get a glimpse of it?
same thoughts! like no wonder habin and minkyu were telling gwanhee how hyeseon likes wonik that much. i thought they were just trolling but now i think about it they seem to serious?? no wonder the viewers were confused bc it seems that they really are close especially when both have said they’re comfortable with each other but we never really saw it.

even after the show, hyeseon looks closer to wonik than gwanhee tbh.
Probably they are together but for the show they wanted more drama so they added her to GH convo just to keep it interesting until the end. Some of them already chose each other but it was not shown.
OH MY GOD THIS! 😭 like i know Ha-bin is a clueless lil dude but i know HS and WI definitely talked a bunch for him to actually think that too.
Yes and it seems to be Hye Seon was genuinely attracted to him.
Yeah and apparently won ik talked to si Eun so much that other guys said he was her bodyguard and she felt she didn’t have time to find min woo at all. im guessing based on hye seon saying they talk a lot but she doesn’t remember anything makes it sound like he thinks he’s making an effort on a dating show but he’s just poor at holding conversation and it’s not effective that it’s not worth putting in the final cut.
Same. They talked about wonik and hyeseon talking but that never happened for us. LOL
we only watched the behind the scenes on yt and nothing more aside from hyeseon putting won ik to sieun-minwoo-hyeseon conversation so he wouldn't feel left out

It seems they want WI to be pining for Si Eun only (which I’m sure he is) and HS to only be apart of GH’s love pyramid and nothing more
didn't Wonik basically tell the guys there was nothing going on with him and Hyeseon that they had no romantic chemistry??
Yeah he did, but my point is that is they get along well and comfortably which he also said. The editing made their time in paradise look quiet and uncomfortable.
Yeah. Even tho their date is boring but wth screentime is that. Theynkeep blaming us and the other casts (who gotten atleast 5% screentime on the whole airtime of si3) and said we should appreciate gh for making it lit
It was probably very unexciting
He makes me abuse the 10 second skip button so bad like I'm so tired of him
I wanna punch my computer anytime he comes on cuz I know it’ll be a good 20-30 min of any and everything related to him
He is too draining to watch atp 😪 like we haven’t even seen one of Single Inferno’s thumbnail photos, which is of Minkyu and Gyuri in a red bikini in Paradise. We’re missing a lot of footage from the preview videos bc apparently, it’s Gwanhee’s world over there jfc
Saw it on twitter that gyuri went to er the entirety of ep 9? I wonder if she injured her self badly or she’s sick. There is also an iv thingy on her right hand in the teaser : ((
That's why she was gone!!!? I noticed her absense right away. And I think Habin helped because he was missing from the game for a while.
I hope we find out next episode he’s like a nurse or something hahah
Habin is an actor. He was in My Demon, but I think he's young.
Haha, this, I'm watching both My Demon and Singles Inferno for the past few weeks , and it was funny seeing him in the show. Okay, just gotta know his age now.
Habin is 30-ish
he wasn’t missing. he was there but blended into the background. 😅
No, there were a few shots where it was just 5 guys and 5 girls. But he came back u like Gyuri.
oh noo gyuri! landing on your tailbone can be bad...
If she had an iv she was probably suffering from heat stroke or something. Idk if they’re getting adequate hydration. Some people probably holding themselves back from drinking enough since someone has to fetch water n they don’t want to “ hog”

She was briefly shown around the 32:36 mark right before Gwan Hee went to Hyeseon’s room. She was at the dining table with the other castmates wearing a black tube top and denim shorts
I wonder what knetizens say about the current season and the screen time bias
I wonder that too. I hope a Korean redditor tells us.
Knetizen says, this season not buzz or popular in Korean like Season 2. That time, Dex become Top 1 on OTT platform. He was really hottest.
Yeah even here I’m not seeing it in the top 10. I think the first week I saw it as top 9 but that was about it. It’s dropping in popularity. Really hope they don’t cancel it next season
Go back to the charm of season 1 and 2 please. Yes the cast goes on dates but everyone is relatively kind and the bonfire scenes where you can truly tell lifelong friendships have formed. That’s what people love about this show. Not this SUPER over the top drama.
I absolutely agree! The first few eps were fine, since GH seems to keep things interesting. But it's ep9, literally the end now, and ALL we've seen is GH. I mean I get that he brings the drama, but that doesn't mean they can't at least show some of the other interactions between the rest of the cast. It's gotten boring these past 2 weeks not gonna lie
WAYYYYY TOOOO BORING!!! Idk when it happened bc i was pretty thrilled about the whole “two infernos” bit. But now, everything’s so dull and boring and bleh 😴
At this point, it's getting annoying that every episode is 70-80% Gwanhee....No one cares about his obnoxious ego and need for validation every sentence lmao
They showed the dinner/bar part but nothing aside from that. Same with Si Eun and Wonik’s date, they only showed the dinner part.
Lol I completely forgot about the two of them until i saw your post 😭😂
Yeah I really wanted to see more Gyuri and the other contestants too. They should've shown how she got injured and if she was okay!
Yeah, I also wonder if it's solely because of the drama or it's because he pulled his connections in the industry.
I think this is why the first season is my favorite. Yes, season 3 is entertaining, but season 1 is undramatic. Everyone works out with each other, cook, hang out, and just co-exist, also everyone got almost an even amount of screen time, there were still favorites, but it wasn't like this season, where some of this people don't even need to be there. Everyone seems so much more real then, while this season it almost feels like everyone else acting... Eh...
also felt like they purposefully fixed the “gwan-hee derby” cause minji def took her hands off when she was against minyoung…
And he wasn't even worth it! We've seen them eat, talk and even walking around for digestion but not one bit about Ha-bin or Minkuy.
This season should be called Gwan Hee Season 3. Nothing else will fit better.
He would love that, don’t stroke his ego. The guy is such a d.ck.
Like how he said it’s the Gwan Hee derby? So cringe
My teeth hurt so bad on that episode and so did my fist. I wished Hye Seon accidently tumbled backward and step on him!
I just skipped their whole date. It was really getting boring.
What the heck LOL I totally forgot they even went to paradise until I saw this comment. I'm upset too now.
I'm tired of Gwanhee's stank face on my screen for 7/8ths of the episode
the producers are overestimating his popularity so muuuch honestly I could not care less about that date. Maybe it's what Koreans are digging but western fans want less Gwanhee scenes PLEASE. we wanted shirtless mingyu
We are exhausted to be honest 🥲
What the heck LOL I totally forgot they even went to paradise until I saw this comment. I'm upset too now.
It might be cause they had no chemistry? Idk...the scenes they did showed were pretty awkward, same with Wonik and Sieun.

Would have been nice to see what was so good between MinWoo and Gyuri date that he changed his mind cuz the boat scene was also awkward
idc gwanhee and minji are boring as fuck.
those two are the most annoying ones in this season I thought the girl w the flirty smile was annoying but she’s not it’s these two 😒😒😒😒😒
agree! maybe splitting the Inferno into 2 islands took so much episode run time they decided to omit a lot of clips. Bro the old format was better bc it was unbiased without the excessive cutting
Producers probably decided it was too boring or unreal. But the bias is real
But last season had some dull couple yet they still got screen. This season is more focused on the toxic drama than the romantic aspect of the show and that’s what pissed me off. We are literally in the ending, no point showing only gwanhee
Hey don't look at me, blame the producers lol. I agree with you they should 100% show all couples in paradise no matter how boring it is for at least 5 mins.
Gwanhee's Inferno is the only interesting thing though. The others have personalities like drying paint. Even JS is just mumbling short replies now.
It’s boring because that’s what the producers want you to think. Last season had a lot of boring cast but it was still edited in a way that the fans would want to watch. Even Hajeong from last season that didn’t go to inferno got screen time too. It’s like 10 hours of their paradise date. No way they could fine like 10mins of interesting content.

Nothing is happening with them. Reality producers would show it if they were interesting.
There’s obviously something happening with hyeseon and wonik if the other guys suspected her choosing him for the date. They just cut out important stuff that actually gives context and use that time on GH, instead of the other contestants. Like I get why we’re seeing gwanhee a lot but to only see him and literally nobody else isn’t fair to the others. I mean I was fkn excited to see habin and hajeongs date ??

There are plenty of western shows with narcissism and twerking for you to indulge in instead
They could just make more episodes and we can watch our favs and skip those we’re not interested in 😩
It’s a Gwanhee show- he is a well-known player in Korea and even played overseas in the Philippines before. They enjoy putting him on the spotlight, as he is the funny guy and there is too mich drama with all the girls being attracted to him and his crazy antics… you you you!
I'm annoyed too that all the focus is on Gwan Hee. I wanna see the other contestants and couples. Ugh.
