But similar to its counterparts Love Island and Too Hot to Handle, not every relationship formed on the show lasts in the outside world. While they might have thrived on Inferno island and in Paradise, only a few pairs actually pursued a relationship once cameras stopped rolling.<\/p>\n<p>Now that Season 5 is in full swing \u2014 let us know who you\u2019re rooting for in the comments section at the end of the page \u2014 we decided to check on Single\u2019s Inferno\u2018s success rate. Since the show started in 2021, which participants have stayed together after coupling up on the show? Which ones didn\u2019t last? Get the latest updates below.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Single\u2019s Inferno\u2019 Season 1<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Song Ji-a and Kim Hyeon-Joong<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ji-a and Hyeon-Joong may have left the show together, but they didn\u2019t last on the outside. Shortly after their exit from the show, fans noticed that Hyeon-Joong had unfollowed Ji-a on Instagram, per Koreaboo. He explained that they we\u2019re still friend and there was no ill will behind it \u2014 he noticed she wasn\u2019t following him and decided to follow suit to prevent rumors from circulating.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause of the ongoing situation, I had an even harder time reaching out to her. Even right now, in this moment as I talk about it, it\u2019s really hard. However, what I can say is that the Ji A I got to know is a kind and bright friend who works extremely hard,\u201d he said. \u201cWe have remained on friendly terms and even in the middle of the airing of the show, we contacted each other here and there.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.5%;\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"photo-credit\"><span class=\"credit\">Netflix<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Kang So-Yeon and Oh Jin-Taek<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many fans thought So-Yeon and Jin-Taek were still together a month after filming when Jin-Taek gave a cryptic response about their relationship status: \u201cSo many people ask me the same question. Kang So Yeon is someone I always wanted to meet,\u201d he said, according to Koreaboo. However, any hopes of a romance between the two were lost when he was linked to PR agent Lily Baek in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Jin-Taek appears to still hold So-Yeon in a high regard years later, per a March 2025 interview with K-Africa Mag. \u201cSince the first time I met So-Yeon in Single\u2019s Inferno, my choice was So-Yeon. If I appeared on Single\u2019s Inferno again and So-Yeon appeared in the same way, I would make the same choice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moon Se-hoon and Shin Je-yoon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Je-yoon and Se-hoon also didn\u2019t last off-screen. Se-hoon sparked breakup rumors about a month after the season dropped, saying that he was unable to \u201cdefine\u201d his relationship with his costar (NME), and the speculation officially ended in March 2022. They appeared in a vlog together, in which Je-yoon confirmed her single status.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kim Jun-sik and An Yea-won<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Busy schedules seemingly got in the way of Jun-sik and Yea-won pursuing a relationship off-screen. \u201cThe situation wasn\u2019t like where I could meet him after my work and stuff. We did meet up a few times and kept each other updated, so we decided to stay good friends,\u201d Yea-won said shortly after the season aired, according to Koreaboo.<\/p>\n<h2>Single\u2019s Inferno Season 2<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Jo Yoong-jae and Choi Seo-eun<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yoong-jae and Seo-eun shared photos together and hosted a joint meet-and-greet for fans post-show, according to the Straits Times. Per a January 2023 article from Koreaboo, Yoong-jae even said, \u201cI hope so,\u201d in response to a fan asking if he would marry Seo-eun.<\/p>\n<p>However, they haven\u2019t appeared in any recent Instagram posts together, which leaves their relationship timeline and status unclear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kim Se-Jun and Lee So-e<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After leaving the island hand-in-hand, fans noticed Se-Jun and So-e interacting on social media quite a bit, per Marie Claire, but they didn\u2019t stay together long afterward. About a month after the season aired, Showbiz Cheatsheet reported that Se-Jun saw So-e more as a \u201cyounger sibling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shin Seul Ki and Choi Jong Woo<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jong Woo posted some photo-booth strips of himself and his Single\u2019s Inferno partner shortly after Season 2\u2019s premiere, but they appear not to have stayed together after the show. Neither Seul Ki or Jong Woo publicly shared if they had a relationship off-screen.<\/p>\n<h2>Single\u2019s Inferno Season 3<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Lee Gwan-hee and Choi Hye-seon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take long for Gwan-hee and Hy-seon to shut down off-screen romance rumors. On January 20, Gwan-hee shared a YouTube video video explaining that they\u2019d called it quits due to distance. He was playing basketball in Korea, while Hye-seon was planning on going to university in England.<\/p>\n<p>AsiaOne reported that he said, \u201cFirst of all, I want to tell you that we are not a couple.\u201d They stayed in touch after filming, but Gwan-hee decided he wanted to be \u201cin a relationship where I can meet the person every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Choi Min-woo and Yu Si-eun<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the weeks post-show drop, Min-woo and Si-eun shared photos together and fan edits of their showmance, but they never spoke out about whether they were still together or broken up. They still follow each other on Instagram.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-736062\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=400%2C225&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"Singles Inferno\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=200%2C113&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 200w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=300%2C169&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=400%2C225&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 400w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=500%2C281&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 500w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=600%2C338&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 600w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=700%2C394&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 700w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=800%2C450&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 800w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=900%2C506&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 900w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=1000%2C563&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1000w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=1200%2C675&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1200w, https:\/\/www.lifeandstylemag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Singles-Inferno-S3_still_18.jpeg?fit=1400%2C788&amp;quality=86&amp;strip=all 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 400px, (max-width: 600px) 600px, 830px\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"photo-credit\"><span class=\"credit\">Netflix<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Park Min-kyu and Kim Gyu-ri<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gyu-ri picked Min-kyu in the finale, and they didn\u2019t address where they stood post-show.
