Mina Sue Choi, Korea’s first Miss Earth winner, is officially joining the cast of Netflix’s highly anticipated Single’s Inferno 5, according to an exclusive report by TenAsia on August 4. The announcement has sparked excitement among fans of the hit dating reality series, as Choi is known not only for her striking visuals but also for her intelligence and charm.
With a degree in Communications from the University of Illinois and a strong command of English, she stood out in the global pageant scene for her eloquence and advocacy on environmental issues. Mina Sue Choi was crowned 1st runner-up at Miss Korea 2021 before making international headlines in 2022 by winning Miss Earth, one of the world’s four major beauty pageants.
Her historic win marked a milestone for Korea in the global pageant scene. During pre-pageant events, Choi clinched three gold medals — in swimsuit, beachwear, and evening gown categories — and earned a bronze in resort wear, along with a special award.
Single’s Inferno, Netflix Korea’s breakout reality hit, has captivated global audiences since its 2021 debut. Set on a remote island dubbed “Inferno,” the series challenges singles to form genuine connections in order to escape to “Paradise.” With each season maintaining a spot in Netflix’s Global TOP 10 (Non-English TV), the show has produced numerous rising stars including Freezia (Song Ji-a), Dex, and Shin Seul-ki.
Season 5 marks a new chapter as the first Korean reality series on Netflix to reach five seasons. Slated to premiere in the second half of 2025, it is already drawing buzz with Mina Sue Choi’s confirmed participation — signaling a fiery mix of glamour, substance, and competition ahead.
