The makers of "Single's Inferno 3" explained why participant Yoon Ha Jung said she was just an office worker when she was actually working for an agency.

An interview with TenAsia with producers Kim Jae Won and Kim Jung Hyun took place on January 11.

They talked about how they made season 3 of the famous reality dating show.

"Single's Inferno 3," which just ended, is an honest and sexy dating reality show that takes place on a remote island called "Inferno Island," from which only couples are allowed to leave.

That was the end of Season 3. Choi Hye Sun and Lee Gwan Hee, Ahn Min Young and Lee Jin Seok, Kim Kyu Ri and Park Min Kyu, and Yoo Si Eun and Choi Min Woo were the couples who left the island.

A lot of contestants got a lot of attention on the show.

In particular, a lot of the female contestants had been in beauty pageants before.

"We didn't specifically look for beauty pageant contestants," said producer Kim Jung Hyun.

We looked them up on social media and sent them a direct message, and it turned out they had been in beauty pageants before.

"Many people are afraid to show themselves to the public and are shy about standing in front of the cameras," said producer Kim Jae Won.

However, beauty show contestants don't mind being seen by a lot of people.

That's probably why there were so many of them.

The producers also cleared up the latest rumors about Yoon Ha Jung's past.

Yoon Ha Jung became very famous because she was pretty and honest.

During the show, she said she was a regular office worker at a clothing company, but it turned out she was already working for an agency.

"Yes, Ha Jung does work for a clothing company run by her family," producer Kim Jae Won said.

She is working, and not just at the company. She is also trying to become a model at the same time. "Even people with regular jobs start to think about other career paths after they end up on the show and get attention," the producer said.

Once they become well-known, they naturally start to think about other jobs they could do.

We tell them not to quit their main job because you never know how the attention from the public will affect them, and we hope they don't make such big changes in their lives after the show.

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
