Some post season comments:
> My final ranking for girls (If I was part of the show)
1. YeaWon
2. Jiyeon
3. Soyeon
> I hope they could've brought the new contestants sooner rather than almost at the end of the show since it's a huge disadvantage knowing that it is a dating show and it takes time for people to build relationships in real life and what more in less than 9 days (4 days or shorter for the newer ones)
> Jia knew how to play the game. She was lethal. She had her own playbook. She literally got 3 boys on chokehold the whole time. She is great towards the show (dating game mechanics wise), but in real life, I would personally avoid someone like her hahaha ngl. Tbh, it would've been better if she just didn't choose anyone, but okay I respect her decision. Although Mr. Sun (Hyeon Joong) being called a "puppy" is just a no for me. It literally is like you're just a follower and have really no say about yourself, but I guess he knew what he got into and still even called himself a puppy. So okay bro HAHA
> As much as I hate Hyeon Joong's hatred towards the sun in the first episode, i kinda felt bad for him throughout the show especially that he even had a "rivalry" with his outside friend for a girl. I think that's just too much to handle in a plate. Props to him for sticking with his word and patiently waiting. I'm not a fan tho of being called a puppy cause it just doesn't sound nice. Like fans usually say these to kpop idols during fancalls etc. like "can i be your dog" etc. but i wouldn't think that I would really witness that in this show HAHAHA. at least they ended up together in the finale.
> Yeawon for me was extremely underrated. She was like everyone's friend and supporting hand throughout the entire show. What i really liked about her tho despite the show airtime is how much lively of a person she is and that her humor is kinda similar to mine. Sucks that she wasn't shown much, but after watching for 8 episodes. She was my new number 1.
> Tbh, Jun Sik felt like a filler character or a role player. Nothing much really happened to him and Yeawon who were both lowkey in the show. I wish we got to. see more of him as well.
> Sihun is just depressing to watch. It's just too sad hahaha that's all I can say. I guess he tried to copy was Sehoon did thats why he chose Jia at the end, but it was a sad series for him imo.
> I saw the potential of Jintaek at the start, but with Jintaek sending mixed signals to Soyeon and Jiyeon at the same time midway through the show was annoying hahaha At least, they ended up together at the end. I still am not a fan of the hairy chest, but again i respect his decision with it. Everyone has their own style.
> Soyeon had a strong aura radiating around her and given her occupation, I'm not surprised why that was my first impression towards her. I love the fact that he was one of the brave ones to talk to Sehoon to snap out and read the signals of Jiyeon that she might not be interested and uncomfortable towards Sehoon, but Sehoon just snapped out of it and maybe took it the wrong way. (Although we can't invalidate his feelings as well being rejected multiple times within a span of 2-3 days haha). I didn't like tho how she went to SeHoon as the 2nd option when JinTaek was sending mixed signals (but again this is a dating show and it's part of the "game")
> I was rooting for Sehoon since day 1 and I'm glad that he did not give up on what he really wanted, but I feel like in real life, It would be more difficult if he would show such behavior especially when he kept on pursuing Jiyeon even if after Soyeon warned him that she might be not interested and uncomfortable. I feel like a lot of people would hate him for that for being to "pushy" instead of seeing it as "try and try until you succeed". Props to him though for backing out when Jiyeon gave the signals that she was "sleepy" and "tired" as well as not pressuring Jiyeon to do anything especially when they were in the island. To be fair, Jiyeon never really said a straightup No to Sehoon maybe that's why he still so hope and didn't stop until the end (unlike how Jia just said no with her eyes to SiHun).
> Jiyeon was like one of the main characters throughout this show, but her emotional side was not shown enough unlike how they showcased Sehoon's (which I hope they did). She was having a hard time from all the pressure and the mental games that was happening in the show which eventually made her tearup i guess at the final episode. If I was her though, maybe it would've been better to immediately confront Sehoon that she is not interested to avoid further confusion and just to establish everything. As far as i can remember, she just chose 2 different persons during her time in paradise which should be a sign for Sehoon, but he was still persistent. Although now that i think about it, I'm not sure if she was really interested with Sehoon knowing that Jintaek was now locked with Soyeon and she had no choice anymore? I mean i guess we will never find out ahahah so just give her the benefit of doubt.
> the 3 new comers were just too late. It's like they just entered to get their hearts broken somehow. I'm not sure what was the process on why they were inserted almost the end of the show, but i really feel like it would've been better if they were inserted earlier. The placements also of the final decisions was just plain cruel. They had to shatter both of the girls hearts. there were other ways to place them, but they just had to put them there.
Overall, I think it's an interesting show hahaha and was worth my time to binge watch. But to be honest, it's so hard to trust shows like these if whatever they're feeling are real or not since they are in a situation wherein they are somehow forced to pick who they think is "the best" among the selection of participants and not necessarily a person they're really interested in in life. They are stuck in an island for 8/9 days and I guess some participants just wanted to make the most out of it while some were just very chill. Cause i do feel like some decisions just panned out because they're priority option was not there anymore and may have settled for the 2nd option even though it's not really the best out there. You can see it when they start shifting their attention to another person since they were turned down immediately by their priority picks. So it doesn't feel as genuine as it should and more of like just a rebound/backup plan and just settling for the "remains". Building relationships imo takes way way more than 8/9 days to solidify that bond, but I guess that's where the entertainment factor kicks in for shows like these. To see if people can make it work.
Anyway let me know your thoughts on this show if you've guys watched it as well. I might do the other seasons too since it will be a different set of participants, but we'll see.

Watched all the seasons; I loved them all. Season 3 is the most dramatic.😂 Hope you'll also share your reactions to Season 2 and 3. Watching all the seasons, I believe Ji-a, objectively, is the most charming and "lethal" among all the female participants, in a way she really knows how to play the game. While Dex, from Season 2, is the most charming for me out of all male participants. It would've been interesting if Ji-a and him were put in the same season. I'm curious who will "win" between them.😂 All in all, though Single's Inferno cannot really completely show what really happened on the island, it's still a fun and entertaining show for me. Waiting for your reactions to Season 2 and 3.💗💗
