L'inferno dei single

It is amazing how cool the Korean Culture. People may not even shake hands let alone give a hug or handshake. More than anything, this show is letting me know just how many layers humans can have and it is fun to watch. I like the pacing of the show - it does not try too hard to get your attention span and grows gradually. I like most people on the show and the culture is quite rich, sets are good without the usual drama we associate with islands and single people. I have seen just the first 2 episodes and I am patiently awaiting more.

Compared with western dating shows, especially ones based at beaches this was sooooo different. The western ones are loud and trashy, which makes them hugely fun and cringy. This show is such a reveal of the difference in cultures. From the way the people interact to what is acceptable to talk about, such as skin colour, face shape and a preference for single or double eyelids. Amazing insight. Not much happens in this show, and if you're looking for crazy entertainment, this isn't it. In many ways it's rather beautiful.

One more thing! These young folk can cook! With basic ingredients, they whip up many a meal that looks amazing.

Unlike any other dating reality TV show I watched this show doesn't contain any of the other trash you seen in typical American shows like this. I found the pacing great, the conversations not forced and I really rooted for the participants and loved how it turned out in the end.

This is the first time I haven't turned one of these "speed dating on a desert island" or "find love in three days plus gimmicks" shows off in the first or maaaybe second episode. And once again it's because there is an authenticity to Korean culture that is so refreshing. Where is the backstabbing?! Where is the snide double edge remarking?! Where are the testosterone heavy but bikini clad competitions that are meant to create random and poorly placed drama to exclude the idea of well developed personalities...?!

Thankfully none of it found its way to this show. Instead the focus is on real world emotions and responses between the contestants. Even the ones who are expected to be obnoxious are good people, just higher maintenance. These shows don't need to be full of jerks to be good. Well done.

This won't be like the American's reality dating shows. There won't be any kissing, sex, over the top drama.

Koreans/Asians in general are more conservative, polite, little skinship, less eye contact.

I just love this version of it. Wonder how Koreans would do a dating show without celebrities. This show is definitely it. Every casting is attractive just like how Koreans like their castings. For Koreans, it might be too much for them.

Some people that wants drama and lots of touching and kissing won't like it, like the Americans.

It's was nice to see something different.
