The Single's Inferno Season 4 Twist Explained (Signs This Will Be The Hottest Season Yet)

After what seemed like an eternity, the highly anticipated new season of Single's Inferno is here, and season 4 features a big twist that could change everything. The unscripted South Korean dating show is dubbed in English and is one of Netflix's most popular reality shows. Each season, several single young Korean men and women are dropped on a secluded island, which is known as the inferno. The inferno is an austere environment with few amenities and meager rations.

The singles pair off and compete to leave the inferno for short trips to paradise, which is a luxury hotel with great food and fun date experiences. Though the singles are hoping to find love at the inferno, the show has a terrible track record, with not one couple lasting far beyond the final episode. Hopes are high that the singles of Single's Inferno season 4 will have better luck than in the past. Read on to learn more about this season's big twist.

Single's Inferno Season 4 Just Premiered

Contestant Arrivals Were Different This Time

The premiere episode of Single's Inferno season 4 started like every other season. It opens with a female contestant entering the inferno, followed by a male contestant, and so on. This season, all five of the first contestants were women, and the contestants started to get nervous. Then, a man walked up, and a voice over a loudspeaker identified him as the winner of a game we hadn't yet seen, and he was allowed to pick one woman to take to paradise.

As the premiere episode of Single's Inferno season 4 continued, it was revealed that all the male contestants were living on a different part of the secluded island. During the first three seasons, contestants would all live at the inferno together, but this season, they'll be split into two groups living on different parts of the island. During episode one, the men and women were divided, but that changed by the end of the premiere episode, when a woman walked into the man's camp.

What To Expect From Single's Inferno Season 4

Hottest Season Yet

Though every season of the show has been entertaining, the trailer teases what appears to be the show's most thrilling season yet. While Single's Inferno contestants during past seasons didn't really engage in public displays of affection, season 4 promises to be the raciest season yet.
