Will ’Single’s Inferno’ Return for Season 6? Everything We Know So Far
What To Know
- Netflix is dropping Single’s Inferno Season 5 episodes throughout January and February 2026.
- Producer Kim Jae-won and host Kyuhyun have spoken about the future of the show.
Single’s Inferno returned for round five in January 2026, putting a group of new singles on an island to compete in challenges and (ideally) find lasting love. The Korean reality dating show has offered plenty of love triangles and steamy moments, and Season 5’s first batch of episodes has served up all of the drama that viewers have come to expect. However, things are looking a bit different with its larger number of participants than usual.
It’s still early days, but we don’t blame you if you’re already thinking about Single’s Inferno‘s future. Netflix has churned out new episodes of the reality show every year since Season 1 dropped in 2021, so can fans expect to go back to Inferno island in 2027? Swooon has all the latest updates about Single’s Inferno Season 6.
Has Single’s Inferno been renewed for Season 6?
Netflix hasn’t yet revealed Single’s Inferno‘s renewal status, but an update could be coming soon. Last year, the streamer announced that the show was renewed for Season 5 just one day after the Season 4 finale aired.
Plus, producer Kim Jae-won seems optimistic about the future. In September 2025, he told a Korean news outlet, “The original goal was to make it to Season 10. I’m currently editing this season, and I think Season 20 might be possible. That’s how I feel in the editing room.”
Single’s Inferno host Kyuhyun seems to share the director’s confidence. “Even though I’m in the position of announcing Season 5, I’m already looking forward to Season 6,” he told Korea Joongang Daily.
When would Single’s Inferno Season 6 come out?
New seasons typically release at the beginning of the year, so it would likely drop in January or February 2027. It all depends on how quickly the renewal comes.
Who is in the Single’s Inferno Season 6 cast?
Typically, casting isn’t shared until closer to the premiere date, so fans likely won’t know who the next Single’s Inferno participants are until next year, if the show is renewed.
If Season 6 is greenlit, it’s possible that Single’s Inferno will carry over the different approach it took to finding its Season 5 cast. Per Harper’s Bazaar, Kim said that the show tried to bring less influencers and models onto Season 5 compared to previous seasons. The producer looked for people on the streets because he “felt limited by social media.” They looked for a greater range of professions.
Will Hanhae, Dex, Hong Jin-kyung, Lee Da-hee, Kyuhyun host Single’s Inferno Season 6?
Kyuhyun seems ready to move full steam ahead if the show gets a sixth season, but neither he nor his fellow hosts have been confirmed. Fans will have to wait for more news from Netflix.
