Lee Jin Seok, the charismatic café owner from Daegu, recently shared his thoughts on his experience as a contestant on ‘Single’s Inferno 3‘ in a recent chat.
Known for his rugged good looks and playful personality, Jin Seok became a highlight on the show, especially for his close bond with Lee Kwan Hee, a basketball player from Changwon LG Sakers.
Jin Seok spoke about their friendship, saying, “Our personalities just click. Kwan Hee is loyal and takes care of his people. If you’re his friend, he’ll go above and beyond for you. Even now, he’s the one organizing most of our get-togethers.”
Despite Kwan Hee‘s athletic fame, Jin Seok confessed he initially had no clue who Kwan Hee was. “I wasn’t into sports, so I didn’t recognize him. Thanks to him, basketball has become more interesting for me,” he admitted.
Surprisingly, Jin Seok revealed that the most astonishing thing he discovered about Kwan Hee wasn’t his profession but his age. “He looked younger than me,” Jin Seok added.
Moving on, Jin Seok talked about another fellow contestant, Park Min Kyu, a rescue diver and police officer. “Min Kyu’s age and job caught me off guard. I thought he was a soldier,”
Jin Seok shared, recalling funny moments from their time filming. “When someone walked by while we were sleeping, Min Kyu would jump up in surprise. It was like a reflex. I thought he was a soldier, but it was just his habit to react quickly.”
Following his stint on ‘Single’s Inferno 3,‘ Jin Seok expressed newfound interest in modeling and the entertainment industry. “I never considered entertainment before, but now I’m open to various possibilities. If there’s an opportunity, I’d love to collaborate and explore activities that suit me,” he said.
‘Single’s Inferno 3’ is a popular dating reality show set on a challenging island called ‘Hell,’ where contestants face limited resources and simple living conditions. Once couples form, they get to move to ‘Heaven,’ a luxurious hotel with top-notch amenities.
The show’s success has led to its domination on Netflix, ranking in the Top 10 TV shows globally (non-English) for five consecutive weeks and making the Top 10 lists in 31 countries since its release.
